Come away from the “busy” and join us for a creative, peaceful and healing afternoon/early evening retreat for a re-set and renewal. Under the powerful glow of the Full Harvest Moon energy, you will cast your life vision by creating a beautiful vision board, journaling deep about your dreams and desires, and setting strong intentions for your life journey. You will be invited to end this transformational experience with a dreamy hour of Reiki-Infused Yoga Nidra that will leave you refreshed and restored.
What is Full Moon Vision-Boarding?
This is a creative practice of collaging a vision board on a 16×20 paper board with images, words, phrases, fine art papers, ephemera and embellishments. This creative practice includes connecting with the Full Moon energy through a guided meditation and journaling prompts that allow you to access your wisdom to recognize and implement the true desires of your authentic self. It is fun, creative and expressive. This vision board will serve to guide you through the next month, season or year in setting intentions and goals for the life you want to live.
Susan Miller is a licensed therapist and provides a safe environment to explore your life vision through Full Moon Vision-Boarding.
What is Yoga Nidra?
Yoga Nidra, sometimes translated at yogic sleep, is a guided relaxation practice that is meant to progressively relax you at every level: body, mind, heart, spirit.
We’ll begin with a very short, very gentle movement practice to release tension, and then you will be invited to lie down or sit in a comfortable, supportive position as Kathleen Yount guides you through a meditative exploration of the inner landscape. Release muscle tension and fatigue, build resilience in your nervous system — take a journey inward to nourish, refresh, and restore your soul. This experience under the Full Harvest Moon will be like giving yourself a big, warm hug.
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a method of stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing that was developed in Japan. It can be administered by hands with light touch, hovering over a person’s body, or from a distance near or far or online.
Reiki is based on the idea that all living things have a special energy flowing through them called life energy. When your life energy is high, you’ll feel strong, confident, more relaxed, centered and less likely to get sick. When it is low, you’ll often feel tired, be more easily affected by stress and less resistant to illness. A Reiki treatment is a way of increasing your life energy.
Reiki is a Japanese word that comes from two words – Rei and ki. When they are used together for the practice of healing, the word Rei means universal spirit, life force, Higher Power or God. The word ki refers to the life energy that flows through all living things. Therefore, Reiki means life energy that is guided by God/Higher Power/Universal Life Force/Holy Spirit/Source.
Reiki energy has an intelligence of its own and is always going to provide benefits to your highest good. It works together with what your body allows. A treatment can feel like a warm glowing radiance that flows through the body that initiates deep relaxation. It will usually release negative feelings, leaving you feeling more positive, light hearted, with increased well-being.
For your Reiki-Infused Yoga Nidra session, Susan Miller will deliver Reiki through her hands into the room while you are also experiencing Yoga Nidra. This beautiful combination should offer you a very relaxing, healing experience that will travel home with you.
