January Workshops & Events Live via Zoom (please email me to register)
Yoga Posture Workshops
Sunday January 9 @ 10am-12pm
Investment: $30+GST
In this workshop you will learn:
- correct alignment for poses
- variations for poses so they suit your unique structure
- how to build more strength & stability in poses
- how to use your breath & expression in poses
- about containment and its importance in joint support
-how to learn to use poses to support your overall body systems
-about the benefits of each pose
Your structure (skeleton) governs your function (the way you move). Yoga is about using poses/positions to benefit you. It is not about trying to get your body into positions that don't support it!
Activating Your New Year! Aroma Yoga Workshop
Sunday January 16 @ 10am-12pm
Investment: $35 (without oils)
$50 (includes 7 oils in sample bottles you can use again)
The intention of Activating Aroma Yoga® is to cultivate the attributes of the earth, fire, and ether elements: physical grounding and energizing, mental clarity and spiritual connection. This class can dramatically improve symptoms such as lethargy, sadness, feeling scattered, stifled or stuck.
This class can help identify and clear thoughts and emotions holding us back. It can invigorate and help us take action in the direction of our dreams and desires. Essential oils penetrate the amygdala via the olfactory system - so they bypass the cognitive rational mind thereby helping to release and facilitate re-patterning of negative emotions.
We will be using the following therapeutic grade essential oils:
Frankincense
Northern Lights Black Spruce (alternative: any tree oil)
Peppermint (alternative: spearmint)
Lemon (alternative: citrus fresh or orange)
Copaiba (peppermint or spearmint)
Believe (alternative: frankincense, idaho balsam fir or spruce, bergamot)
Peace & Calming (orange or patchouli)

Thank you for sharing Jo-Anna! It’s not easy to be vulnerable so thank you for sharing with an open heart with the hopes that it supports others.
In June 2019, my weight was a whopping 255lbs. Medical issues like Hypothyroidism, pre menopausal and medication changes added to the issue for years and if I'm being totally honest, poor eating habits as well. I was at my lowest- mentally, physically and spiritually.
Also, because of my occupations over the years with heavy lifting, swing shifts, always on my feet, driving heavy equipment and working out in the elements- my body was suffering with inflammation and pain due to osteoarthritis and spinal degeneration of neck and lower back. Then add the weight. I could barely get out of chairs when sitting, could barely roll over in bed, my feet hurt all the time and I had horrible joint and nerve pain. I felt I was sentenced to my house. I had no purpose, no self-esteem, no confidence, my world was a dark hole and eventually I had a complete nervous breakdown which ended with me being hospitalized.
Now some might say "You did it to yourself " and I will say "you’re right". It's not that I didn't want to lose weight and have the pain go away. My problem was I never put myself first. Everything for everyone else was way more important. OR I just can't afford it. OR I'll start next week OR!! OR!! OR!!
A friend of mine knew the struggles I was having because she had been in my shoes and cared. She strongly offered me a solution one day and dropped 4 products on my table and said take them and tell me how you feel in a month. Typical me said OK! OK!..and left them until the next day. So the next morning I took ACTION and I started. I had no more excuses, I just did it.
Now we are nearing the end of 2021 and I'm so happy to report I'm 178.2 lbs.. My pain is down 80% of what it used to be and I freaking participate in life. All because I finally thought I was worthy of finally taking care of myself!
I used Liquid BioCell & the Lean Body System. And all I did was follow a few simple steps.
This system goes on sale from December 15-17 only so if you’re interested in checking out the deals please send me a private message and I will send them your way.
