Applied Meditation I: Intro to Meditation
with Linda Thai
8-Week Series begins Sunday January 5
Sundays  |  7-8:15pm
Meditation is the practice of whole-hearted, non-judgmental presence with moment. The ultimate goal is to cultivate happiness that is not dependent on any external cause or circumstance. Doing this requires the stilling of both the mind and the body to allow a direct connection to the present moment. Developing a meditation practice can feel overwhelming, so in this series, we have created a practical approach to help you start your meditation journey. 

Class is broken down into two parts: Practice and Lecture. In each class, we will practice guided silent seated meditation (working from 5 minutes to roughly 20 minutes by the last week), as well as explore various philosophical concepts from Eastern world views. With this foundation, we will discuss and apply these concepts to modern life so that you can regularly use these techniques.

January 12: How To Create Permanent Lasting Happiness

Yin & Acupuncture
w/ Morganne Armstrong & Julie Moulton
Saturday  |  Jan 25  |  3-5pm
Join Morganne Armstrong, RYT 200, LMT, and Julie Moulton, L.Ac. for a special workshop combining Yin and Acupuncture to celebrate winter as we steadily head towards the light. As we drift into late winter, ground I to the season, and look forward to the cycle of seasons in the year ahead. We'll combine thoughts about Chinese Medicine, where winter corresponds to the element of Water. Dive into a deep groundedness, and explore how the union of Yoga and Acupuncture can give you tools to embrace the season ahead.

We’ll begin with a brief discussion of the seasonal impact and what to expect through the workshop. Then Morganne will guide you through a Yin practice to prepare the body for full relaxation and Julie will follow, providing an acupuncture treatment to help you tap into a grounded relaxation. Hands-on assists will be provided and you are welcome to opt out of either physical touch or any acupuncture treatment at any time

Class size is limited to 13 students for individualized attention so please sign up ahead of time to hold your spot. Download our app or register online at fairbanksyoga.com/events​
Myo-Fascial Release Workshops
with Linda Thai
Saturdays  |  Feb 1 & 22  |  2:30-4pm
​Low grade, persistent tension, stress and anxiety not only tightens our muscles, it tightens the layers within and in-between muscles: the fascia. We have no conscious control over the fascial network, and so, the physical patterning of the body becomes a reflection of the patterning of the mind and emotions. We need to consciously unbind this tightness to aid in processing stored emotions and regaining muscle mobility.
 
In this workshop, we will utilize safe and effective techniques using tennis balls and sustained pressure to loosen fascial connective tissue restrictions to eliminate pain and restore motion in the muscles. The goal is to provide you with the knowledge you need to incorporate these deep-tissue releases into your daily wellness routine.

Cost is $20
 
Class size is limited to 24 students. Please pre-register to hold your spot in class
