Join Sheana for a deliciously grounding afternoon of Yin Yoga to create harmony with the earth’s cycle of Autumn
According to Chinese Medicine, Autumn is a time to harvest our energies after the Summer growth cycle.
This workshop offers practices aligned with Autumn’s sacred invitation to pause, reflect, and turn inward — to attune to the quiet wisdom within and honor the soul’s longing to slow down and simply be. When the energy of the Autumn body is out of balance, we may feel waves of grief, lingering sadness, or resistance to letting go. In balance, however, this season brings a deep sense of presence, emotional resilience, and the spacious breath needed to move gradually through life’s transitions.
This 2 hour mini-retreat includes:
– Yin yoga sequences lovingly curated to support the Lungs in Autumn
– Inviting release, deeper breath, and the graceful letting go that mirrors the season’s rhythm
– Guided pranayama (breathwork) & meditation
– Psycho-spiritual inquiry to reveal where you might be holding on and to explore letting go in your life
-Restorative yoga to allow the body to metabolize the benefits of this deep practice
-Sound Healing to offer vibrational frequencies that induce deep relaxation, helping to release stress and tension
Let’s set intention together for the Autumn. You’ll emerge feeling grounded and ready to embrace all that the Season of Harvest has to offer.
All levels welcome..
Sheana’s Seasonal Body Yin Yoga workshops sell-out so early registration is recommended.

Join Priya in an intense, cathartic release of stuck inner emotions and pain. You will leave feeling freer and lighter. A popular offering, we recommend signing up early. Dress in comfortable clothing. Please note, this is free for Pad members, and a normal drop-in class rate for everyone else. This is not a relaxing breathwork class. It requires effort and focus, and challenging emotions can come up. However, you will experience a transformation if you commit to the instructions. Invite a friend and enjoy the journey! Drop-in rate is $30.
The Om Symbol represents The Universe, Eternal Nature of Existence and the Three States of Consciousness. The chant itself is meant to be the primal sound of creation. As yoga practitioners, we often offer this chant at the beginning and end of practice as a shared vibration. In this workshop, we will explore the Om Symbol, sound and deeper meaning. We will look at the map of human consciousness and how it evolves. We will also explore where we find ourselves on this map and what supports and hinders the expansion of our own awareness and our own inner freedom. Are we caught in the monkey mind, are we floating in non dual bliss, do we jump back and forth… and why?!
Participants can expect a stimulating talk and discussion, a partner based exercise exploring inner freedom, the sounding of Om… and a deeper insight into the nature of our practice. Bring a notebook and pen and a curious mind. All are welcome!
