Traveling? Don't have time for yoga?

There is no excuse, and Rachel is here to empower students to self practice.

“I’ll lead the class through 3 sequences that they can practice on their own when they don’t have time to get to the studio. Whether it’s 15 min, 30 min, or 45 min there’s no reason to ever skip getting on your mat! A self practice doesn’t have to be an hour to be effective”. Rachel Novetsky

URAWK bar samples and refreshments will be available after class
The sequence card will be available for $15 to take home

Waves of Sound: A Gong Meditation and Healing Journey
"Vibrate the Cosmos and the Cosmos will Clear Your Path!"-Yogi Bhajan

Sounds and vibrations are the building blocks of a universal language and the means by which we communicate with the seen and unseen worlds. We will utilize the healing power of the Gong to breakdown and break-through our conditioned patterns of reactivity and subconscious habits. Our sensory and super-sensory systems will be attuned, activated and enhanced through the powerful vibrational healing energy that is generated by a 32" symphonic gong.

Upon returning from this unique and profound healing experience, we will meditate with the technology of mantra and mudra to integrate and balance the energy of the pscyhe within and all around. Through the practice of the “Word” (called Naam in Sanskrit) or sound current we can heal, uplift and harness our unseen potential. In this workshop you will experience and unlock the true potential of your word (sound current) through listening meditation, sound healing, gentle yogic postures, breathwork and more.
