TESTIMONIALS

Graciela’s knowledge of yoga and restorative yoga in particular is thorough, intuitive and compassionate. She conveyed the essence as well as the particulars beautifully during our training. Her choice of assignments, the materials provided, and the composition of the three days’ training gave me a solid foundation for my own restorative practice, and the inspiration to share it with other Yogis in the future.

-A. Poston, September 2017

If we have good fortune, we meet teachers who embody their craft. If we are blessed we know one or two who impart through their passions and their actions, their skills. Graciela passes on a legacy of listening deeply to  self, other, and the connection which is the Self. Layer by layer, breath by breath Gracie embraces each student’s capacity to Restore Self. A five star course. 

-Kirt, J. Baab, LMSW, ERYT-200, March 2018

Gracie’s restorative yoga: deep listening training was one of the highlights of my year. It felt like a yoga retreat, was my favorite workshop/training I’ve ever attended, and by the culmination I felt more connected to everyone there and to myself. What a gift!

Holotropic/Transformational/Rebirthing Breath work Group Training Session

Saturday January 26th, 4-5:30pm, $10 Suggested Donation

Holotropic Breathwork, Transformational Breathing, Rebirthing Therapy is not fluffy hippie stuff, it has tons of research for proof of how it can bust stress, aid in recovery from buried trauma, help recover from chronic anxiety and panic attacks. We can release all the tension caused by everyday stress, our fears, insecurities, etc. which usually occur in the physical as well as the mental, psychic and spiritual level. The breath work process releases the emotional, negative charge out of cell memory. The process causes integration of unresolved emotional, physical, mental and spiritual energies.  The primary result is an experience of clarity at a very core level.  The process empowers a person into choice and out of victim-hood.

The intent of these once a month 1.5 hr sessions, will be to provide a context for 1 hr re-birthing/transformational/holotropic breath work. The fantastic thing about these sessions is that they facilitate each experiencer: greeting a real awareness sense of prana or chi; an awareness of how to breathe out to the internal edges of any given  asana or movement form; and hence a real awareness of the long term goal of any 'spiritual' practice; including the sort of vital energy enhanced awareness being found to facilitate intention fulfillment empowerment (go to the various youtube descriptions of Dr Joe Dispenza's Works) or check out this youtube video: https://youtu.be/NnQoULJEhH0

Led by Dr. Lynn Sereda, Ph.D. U.C. Berkeley late 60's, longtime Yogi, Vipassana Meditator, Teacher, Psych Counselor, Re-Birthing/Transformational/Holotropic Breath work practitioner with some 900 session on himself. Helped by wife Trish herself having experienced many sessions. Session will be undertaken lying down in circle w/ hands lined to neighbors above one's  head, to help facilitate group support. Please bring you mat or something comfortable to lie on. These kinds of session would cost far more when undertaken with individual guidance.

Full Moon Eclipse Ceremony

Come join us for our Full Wolf Moon Eclipse Ceremony. Sunday January 20th, 12pm-1pm

Not only will this be a full moon, but a super blood moon too! This time will be ample for releasing, celebration, and manifesting.
Eclipses act as potent portals into alternate dimensions of consciousness. When utilized with intentional awareness, we can literally recreate and integrate aspects of self.

We are multidimensional beings - meaning that we exist across all time and space. Our traumas, wounds, patterns and habits don't just exist in the here and now. Working on this physical plane is powerful and beneficial, but when we are able to access the expansiveness of our multidimensional selves, greater, longer lasting and more significant and permanent change takes place.

In this ceremony we will align us selves with the peak of the lunar eclipse and direct our unified focus on core healing and deep clearing on individual and collective level.

Please bring your drum or rattle.

This is a free event, however, we suggest $5 donation to the venue.

Chakras, Mythology and Astrological Symbolism

Chakras, Mythology and Astrological Symbolism is a 2 - hour exploration of our spiritual anatomy – the Chakras- that define who we are on an energetic level and give rise to everything we do, think and feel in our day to day lives. The characters and stories from Greek, Roman, Hebrew and Christian mythologies illustrate these dynamic forces and clue us in as to how we may harness or fall prey to their influence.

Astrologer Johnny Barnett has presented this talk from coast to coast for the last 7 years and studied astrology for the last 26. His practice – Chakraology- is a synthesis of Western and Vedic astrological styles, coupled with the largely forgotten, yet obvious connection of the 7 visible planets of Classic Astrology with the 7 Chakras.

Saturday January 12th 4-6pm, $20 in advance/ $25 at the door

Bio:
Johnny has been a practicing Astrologer for over 26 years. His unique astrological perspective is based upon the relationship between the 7 planets of classical astrology and the 7 Chakras–thus Chakraology – an embracing of the Hermetic wisdom “as without , so within”. He draws upon his complementary studies in symbolism, mythology, Jungian psychology, physics and the works of contemporary and recent thinkers such as Eckhart Tolle and Joseph Campbell, as well as his experiences as a father, husband, entrepreneur, community activist and musician to inform his work. Johnny currently travels the US  presenting his talk, teaching Chakraology classes and doing private astrological readings, and has recently (May 2018) published his first book– ”Chakras, Mythology and Astrological Symbolism” based upon his 2-hour talk.

Testimonials:

"Imagine receiving the gift of a journey, but not just any journey… a journey through sound, through the forest of your soul immersed in Daniel Hansen’s spiritually crafted soundscape and adrift upon a sea of essential oil scented air while floating on spreading warmth of freshly brewed Cacao… an immersive and mystical experience like this in the company of beautiful and divine friends is more than a gift, it is a moment in time where the otherworldly essence of the spirit is free to wander down paths of light and tone guided through the landscape of dreams and imagination by a Master Sound Story Teller." - Vagabond Ink

"Thank you Dan Hansen and for an amazing healing sound journey last night!!! It was truly the peace and centering I have been needing! I hope to never miss another! So tremendously wonderful! If you have not experienced this magic, you haven't fully lived. Seriously such a profound experience. Can't wait for the next one!" - Lacy

"So much love to Daniel Hansen for the aaaahhh-mazing Rootflute Sound Journey last night! I am just blown away by the musical mastery, the effortless clearing and the beauty these two created! I can't wait to do it again! (and to one day have a flute of my own!) If you didn't come out, you missed out big time...make sure to come to the next one!" - Nina

"Not knowing what to expect I entered the space at La Paz and got comfortable.
What followed was out of myself and out of this world.
Starting with a full dose of cacao, I got comfortable and followed the guided meditation to a state of relaxation and openness.
The sound delivered by Mr. Root Flute, from his self-made, multi-instrumented station, was phenomenal. It filled my being and carried me off and away. The skill of Daniel's performance is phenomenal.
I started to see things; the rising music lifted me through jungles up to mountains, in moments of repreive I could fly above it all.
Visuals kept coming and I began to see a small version of myself, sat and made of light in the distance. As the music progressed so too did visions until the figure got so close it overlapped my being.
I became it and could see myself sat. An outer body experience. Such was the power of the cacao and the music.
I layed back and drifted on that dreamy edge between sleep and wakefulness.
Sitting back up I felt unblocked. Tears came out.
An excellent experience that took me by surprise and left me feeling positive and uplifted.
Strongly recommended!"

Movie Night - FREE Event - Running For Good - the Fiona Oakes Documentary

Saturday November 17th, 7pm, Free Event

RUNNING FOR GOOD - THE FIONA OAKES DOCUMENTARY

From Executive Producer James Cromwell and award-winning director Keegan Kuhn (Cowspiracy, What The Health) comes RUNNING FOR GOOD, the feature-length sports documentary narrated by Rich Roll (Finding Ultra), following world record marathon runner Fiona Oakes in her attempt not only to set a new global record in endurance racing, but to compete in the “toughest footrace on earth,” the Marathon Des Sables, a 250km race through the Sahara Desert.
Fiona Oakes has made a name for herself as a unique endurance runner. She is the fastest woman in the world to run a marathon on all seven continents, and the north pole, in both cumulative and elapsed time. Fiona’s achievements are made even more astounding due to the fact that she was told at age 14 that she would never walk properly, let alone ever run. She would undergo more than 17 radical knee surgeries which ultimately led to having her entire right kneecap removed. The process was agonizing, the rehab worse, the records she’s gone on to set even more astounding.

With overcoming her own adversity, Fiona’s true drive to achieve incredible feats of speed and human endurance are motivated by a deep desire to raise awareness for the plight of animals. Her achievements help fund a 450+ animal sanctuary that she takes care of every day. 

““I was deeply moved by this awe-inspiring story of how a woman has overcome a disability that would put most people in a wheelchair, to become a world record breaking ultra-marathon runner, fueled by a plant-based diet.” 

— John Robbins, best-selling author

““Fiona is a truly remarkable athlete and human being. She has defied all odds to become a world record-breaking runner despite a horrific knee injury. Her sense of purpose is so strong that nothing can stop her. Yet at the same time she is one of the most humble and selfless people I have met.”

— Elisabet Barnes, 2X MDS winner, Ultrarunner Champion
