In our modern lives, it is easy to lose ourselves in activity, work, or worry. We forget that we are spiritual beings having a human experience. Carve out space and time to put down the habit of doing and access the state of being with this experiential monthly offering. The present moment, when we allow ourselves to fully experience it, can be magical, and open doorways to creativity, purpose, and joy.

Join Anne-Phyfe Palmer for this monthly class designed to connect you to your Self. Each session will involve movement, mindfulness meditation, and reflective writing. Please bring/have a notebook and writing utensil. All levels of yoga practice welcome.

Anne Phyfe Palmer is the founder of 8 Limbs Yoga Centers and has been teaching yoga since 1996. Three decades of study and teaching have taught her that the most important thing is presence. The many different paths of yoga and self-reflection all lead us to the wisdom of our True Self. When we can show up with curiosity and loving kindness, a deep and abiding presence emerges. This is a gift to ourselves, and to the people around us.

Anne-Phyfe is also a coach and a writer; her first book This Life of Mine: A Legacy Journal offers creative prompts to help us remember our lives, to reflect, and/or to pass the memories on to loved ones. This Family of Ours and My Baby’s Book, both keepsake journals, follow-up with offerings for new families and parents to record their experience growing families.

A sound bath is an improvised concert played with the intent of releasing stress, and can facilitate energetic shifts in your mind and body to bring you into a more balanced state of being. Participants lay in a comfortable position on the floor (savasana), while Daniella plays the crystal bowls and gongs, accompanied by her vocal toning. You will be bathed in healing vibrations that help entrain your brain into a deeply relaxed state where physical, mental, and spiritual healing can take place.

please bring your own yoga mat. if you are sure you want pillows and blankets​ to make your experience cozy, please bring some from home! We have props, but the bath typically benefits from having more than we can supply for everyone.

Meditation provides practitioners with the tools to work from the inside out, offering a profound impact on both our emotional and physical well-being. In this 75-minute workshop, we will explore Metta Meditation, an ancient Buddhist practice designed to cultivate loving-kindness.

Through this practice, participants will understand several key benefits, including:

• Increased Empathy and Compassion: Metta meditation fosters empathy and helps us respond with understanding toward others, even in difficult situations.
• Enhanced Emotional Resilience: By developing self-compassion, practitioners become better equipped to handle life’s challenges and stressors with greater emotional balance.
• Increased Positive Emotions: Regular practice of loving-kindness can boost happiness, gratitude, and overall emotional well-being.
• Structural Changes in the Brain: Studies have shown that Metta meditation can increase grey matter density in brain areas associated with emotional regulation, empathy, and social connection.
• Improved Focus and Attention: The practice of Metta has also been linked to enhanced concentration and mindfulness, as it helps reduce mind-wandering and promotes present-moment awareness.

In this workshop, you will learn the fundamentals of meditation, the steps of Metta Meditation, and how to integrate this practice into your daily life. Students of all levels are welcome to learn how to use this ancient wisdom for their modern practice.
