Exciting news! I have placed an order with The Sound Journey Store in Lincoln ON for a Vibroacoustic Singing Bowl. This bowl was ethically made in their Nepalese foundry. Unlike my crystal singing bowls, this bowl was made to be placed on the body, to create a deeply relaxing and grounding experience. I can't wait to share this bowl as an additional offering!

Hip openers made me anxious despite years of practice.
Van der Kolk showed me muscles hold memory, bodies store trauma.
What has your body been trying to tell you through resistance or discomfort?

Dreading the January onslaught of messages demanding that you “fix” your body so it conforms to an unrealistic ideal based on racism?
Interested in hearing from under-represented voices in public health that share different messages?
Announcing the Shared Stories Society!
Starting January 16 join me online Friday afternoons from 3-4:30pm Pacific Time for “media club”. This program invites participants to explore under represented voices in public health. We will examine books, zines, and more across the year. Each session will include time for grounding and self-reflection in addition to group discussion of the materials.
January through February we’ll be reading Aubrey Gordon’s book, “What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat”, and learn how anti-fat bias harms not only fat people, but thin people as well.
While this is listed as being for adults 60+, if you’re an adult younger than 60 and want to participate, please sign up anyway! We’ve officially expanded it to 40+, but if this is what you need and over 20, consider joining, just know the conversation may be biased to post-menopausal people.

What is Yoga Therapy?
"Yoga therapy is a mind-body practice that focuses on your physical, emotional and mental health. The practice uses movement, mindfulness, meditation, relaxation and breathing exercises to help you relax, relieve stress and manage underlying conditions or symptoms in addition to treatment by a healthcare provider." ~ClevelandClinic.org

Are you worried about falling or worry about a parent, partner, or friend who has had recent falls? It seems rather unfair, but increased worry about falls actually increases our fall risk! Thankfully you can reduce that risk by growing mindfulness, adding simple movement practices, and making safer choices in your home & community.
February 12th is the beginning of the next series of my 5-week fall prevention program, Mindful Fall Prevention. Sessions are 90 minutes from 1-2:30pm, Pacific time. This program is offered through the Lifelong Learning program of Portland Parks and Recreation. This low-cost workshop is open to both Portland, Oregon, residents ($10) and non-residents ($14).

An excellent article on the physiological and mental benefits of yoga therapy.
I think yoga therapy is a game changer for the LGBTQIA+ 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ community because it goes beyond conventional psychotherapeutic models of therapy into one that allows people to access parts of themselves they never thought possible.
Join Gill, an IAYT trained yoga therapist, for a series focused on "developing a meditative state" and thoraco-abdominal breathing. Enjoy beginner-friendly meditations, movement with breath, and a fun break with music.

Are you or someone you care about worried about falling?
Fall prevention for older adults is vitally important because we’re more likely to be injured in a fall when we’re older. There are many simple changes people can make to reduce the risk of a fall.
I offer a 5-week course called Build Better Balance that explores prevention from several different approaches. Each week I introduce new movement and mindfulness practices and we cover a safety topic. Since it’s online people can sign up from anywhere! Sessions are recorded in case you can’t make all 5 sessions.
Cost for the full program is $10 for residents in the Portland metro area, only $14 for nonresidents! We meet for 90 minutes with a short break. Classes start at 1pm Pacific time.
Sign up today through Portland Parks & Recreation’s Lifelong Learning program to join one of the two summer sessions:
June 26-July 24: https://anc.apm.activecommunities.com/portlandparks/activity/search/detail/167368?onlineSiteId=0&from_original_cui=true
