Retreat and Restore

About this event

Instructor Shonali Banerjee has been teaching breath-based accessible adaptable yoga for over 20 years and has also led many grief supportive workshops and classes. This class is for anyone feeling grief for any reason and anyone who wants to be a supportive presence. Your entry point could be our collective grief over current and past events in our nation and world or it could be an acute, individual grief experience. All are welcome. Using props like bolsters, blankets, and blocks, each pose is held for an extended period, giving your body permission to soften and release tension. This practice focuses on rest, stillness, and gentle stretching, helping to soothe the nervous system, improve flexibility, and cultivate care. Shonali’s song healing is always a balm for the soul. No prior yoga experience is necessary—just bring an open heart and a willingness to rest and hold space for yourself and others. After class, feel free to further wind down with 15 minutes in the sauna.
