Although the holiday season is a time of celebration, it can be stressful. Our time is frequently consumed with decorating, planning activities, preparing food, shopping, and entertaining others in addition to regular obligations. Despite the influx of company that accompanies the holiday, we can easily become disconnected from ourselves and struggle with difficult emotions such as loneliness, anger, sadness, and grief. It makes sense. When life becomes busy, self-care is thrown out the window.
The true spirit of thankfulness begins with self-gratitude. This session is all about reprioritizing personal wellness.
No experience is needed to participate in this 90 minute group breathing session. There will be a brief check in and setup before the session as well as an integration period at the end.
Our Focus: 1) Decrease blood pressure, 2) Reduce stress and anxiety, 3) Improve mood and sleep, and 4) Improve digestion
Breathwork is conscious, simple breathing that helps us deeply connect with ourselves. Having the ability to strengthen the connection between the body, mind, and soul, breathwork is a tool that can help integrate trauma and improve health. Health improvements may include: decreased levels of anxiety and blood pressure, improved sleep and digestion, increased immunity, energy, and much more.
Breathwork stimulates every faucet of our being physically, mentally, emotionally, and physically that can possibly include: dry mouth, coughing, tingling, vibrations or buzzing, involuntary bodily movements, changes in body temperature, tetany (involuntary curling of hands or feet and jaw tightness), dizziness, nausea, yawning, sleepiness, sexual arousal, and release of emotions (tears, laughter, etc), shifts in consciousness, and reminder of traumatic memories.
It is advised not to be full or hungry. Eat lightly if necessary before a session.

This is a two-session series. Students are recommended to participate in both sessions. No reduced payments for partial attendance or refunds will be offered. This series will only be offered if at least three participants register (any currently registered participants will be notified and refunded if the minimum is not met). The maximum group size is six.
In this series, you will be guided through foundational yoga poses and sequences to prepare you for studio classes or a home practice. You will:
-learn to use yoga props to access the full benefits of postures
-understand safe alignment in foundational poses
-practice breathing techniques that can help the body benefit from more oxygen
-learn what to expect from various types of yoga classes
All mobility and flexibility levels are welcome; yoga works for all body types when approached with curiosity and openness! There will be time for personal questions, attention, and modifications.
The Beginners Series are led by different Soulside instructors on the first two Sundays of each month in the Washington studio. If you've taken a previous Beginners Series, but want more instruction before attending regular classes, you are welcome to take the series again and will experience yoga from a different instructor's perspective.
Birth Circles are held quarterly at Soulside Healing Arts’ Peoria studio. Birth Circles are a way to build community, discuss aspects of the holistic birth education course, and gain insight from others’ experiences, desires, practices, and preparation. Each Birth Circle will be a new experience based on who is in the room, the season, and themes or discussions brought by the facilitator.
Light snacks and water/tea available.
Drop-in and pay-what-you-can ($15 suggested donation). Registration requested. You can also use a yoga class pass to attend.
Circles are in-person only and will not be streamed via Zoom.
Babies in arms welcome.
