Calling folks living with loss & having difficulty with change. Over the course of 7 sessions, you’ll uncover & dislodge layers of grief & personal challenge as new pathways and perspectives emerge. Open to the connection, relief, nourishment and restoration made possible through thoughtful body awareness, song, poetry and conscious collective sharing. Sessions are permissive, gentle & without expectation. You go at your own pace. Each session invites you to come as you are.

Expect grounding breath guidance & movement practices, the powerful unique presence of mantra & song healing, and ultimately deep conscious space for group sharing. Boundaries are clear & held with care. There will be introspective writing prompts, references to Francis Weller’s The Wild Edge of Sorrow, poetry, and guidance towards rest. You are reminded of your shared humanity and reconnected with the natural world.

Your guide, Shonali Banerjee of Wise Ma Wellness, has been guiding groups as a yoga teacher & yoga therapist since 2003 and a death doula since 2022. She brings decades of experience holding space for challenging truths, creating a compassionate healing environment to support you & your experiences with loss.

All types of grief are welcome.

** NEW CLASS ALERT **
Slow Flow + Restore | Weds. 10:30-11:30
Begins Aug. 5th!

In this all levels class, immerse yourself in the meditative rhythm of a Slow Flow practice tucked between longer gently held Restorative postures.

Deliberate flowing movement and the mindful breath of a Slow Flow builds awareness, focus, improves flexibility, and releases tension while the stillness of the restorative postures opens up inner-reflection and meditation as well as developing a deeper awareness of both the body and the breath.

Optional vinyasas can be added in for a stronger practice. Modifications are offered for all levels, making it a great fit for both beginners and seasoned yogis looking to elevate their practice.

This class is unheated.

Excited for a New Class offering at The Intown Retreat. Starts tomorrow!!

A new student who had never done yoga before, an elder, came to talk to me after class tonight, “I have never rested like that before, in my whole life. I was never taught how. What a gift.” Tears started to quietly fall from her eyes. She smiled & said, “I’ll be back.”

I’ve been teaching since 2003. Learn from me.
