THIS OFFERING IS SOLD OUT!
Sunday, March 1, 2020
5:00pm - 7:00pm
PranaShanti, Ottawa
Every 11 seconds someone sustains a traumatic brain injury. We’re on a mission to improve the lives of those affected. Here’s how: March is Traumatic Brain Injury Awareness Month. As part of the LoveYourBrain family, we call it #MindfulMarch, and unite as a global collective to host yoga and meditation events to raise love & funds for the LYB program!
We’re kicking off the very first day of #MindfulMarch with a special guest & magical event – please read on for details - we hope you’ll join us.
Picture this: 2 hours of the most healing, gentle, and holistic Yoga offering … where you will move, breathe, meditate, and rest. Mind. Body. Spirit. Soul. You’ll be taken on a journey through gentle therapeutic, yin, and restorative yoga guided by one of our beloved LoveYourBrain teachers, Meghan (bio below). Your journey will conclude with an exquisite meditation + extended savasana.
The secret ingredient - one that will transport you inward & beyond - is that your entire journey will be guided by a meditative sound bath. Our special guest Megan Marie Gates (bio below) has a gift that is hard to put into words. Through soft harmonic, over-tone instrumentation and the practice of deep listening, we’ll have the unique opportunity to slow down and deepen our brainwaves, heartbeats, and enter dream-like states.
Towards the last third of the practice you will be invited to get cozy (seated or laying down) and tune into the soft salving sounds of crystal singing bowls, field sounds, her gentle melodic voice, and more. Sound Meditations (or Sound Baths) are meditative, healing, intuitive journeys which can offer deep relaxation, creative awakening, and regeneration for those participating.
We are so blessed to have the opportunity to share this experience together, to set the foundation for #MindfulMarch and to celebrate the importance of #brainlove for all, while raising money for such an important program in our community.
