"Meditation means dissolving the invisible walls that unawareness has built." - Sadhguru

All month long you can enjoy on-demand meditations + pranayama practices with Brooke available through our online schedule PLUS each Sunday from 1:15-1:45pm, a Group Silent Meditation. All meditation practices are free and everyone is welcome. No experience required. 

Many of our weekly classes during March will also include 5 minutes of meditation after Savasana. This brings you the opportunity to sit in the silent transition between your practice and the rest of your day; you will find a literal “pause for presence”.

Through meditation students are steeped in the immediate benefit their Yama (ethics), Niyama (self-discipline), asana (posture), and pranayama (breath) practices bring while elevating them to the “inner” limbs of the Ashtanga practice. These more inwardly focused limbs include: Pratyahara (sense withdrawal), Dharana (concentration), Dhyana (Meditation), and Samadhi (Bliss). The state of Meditation we enter bridges the gap between individual and universal consciousness which is an indispensable skill we can each build.

If you have been interested in meditation and don’t quite know where to begin we will explore various styles like Vippassana, Guided, Metta, Quiet and Visualizations or Imagery to name a few. We hope this month provides you more opportunity for self-exploration and understanding.

After clicking the button above, you'll be prompted to log into your Punchpass account, like you would to manage your reservations. Once logged in, visit our Content Library to access many types of meditations for the entire month of March!

Yoga Life Studio will be closed March 31st through April 13th for our Spring Holiday! We will re-open Monday, April 14th. All pass expiration dates will be extend for our 2 week closure.

Kundalini Yoga is known as the yoga of awareness. It is an ancient healing practice to awaken and connect with the divine energy within, so you can achieve a life of lightness, joy and boundless love. It’s designed to bring your focus inward to align with the truest highest expression of yourself.  As you go on this journey within, you begin to see through emotional debris— to see what thought patterns need to be released— what’s holding you back from your full potential. Kundalini Yoga uses physical postures, breathing techniques (pranayama) meditation, and mantra/chanting to help rewire the brain and break through energetic blocks.

Kundalini is often represented by the snake. The snake represents healing and transformation, literally shedding its old skin in order to grow.

No prior yoga experience required. Class passes can be used or drop-in rates apply.

Through tapping, tracing, and stimulating key energy pathways, you’ll enhance circulation, reduce stress, and cultivate a sense of grounded vitality. By the end of our three sessions, you’ll have a complete, easy-to-use routine that empowers you to regulate your energy, improve mental clarity, and elevate your overall well-being.

 “I believe an understanding of energy medicine is what is currently missing.... I find that practicing the daily energy routine boosts my energy, health, focus, and attitude and I highly recommend this class.” J.M.

“I had the pleasure of learning the Donna Eden daily energy method from Cathleen. I was in a funk before taking this class. After a very short time, my energy shifted in a very noticeable way. My perception and mood became a little sunnier and life seemed a bit lighter. Years later, I still use this method and I’m forever grateful to have worked with Cathleen. She has a wealth of knowledge as an energy healer and is able to tap into her many resources helping her clients achieve balance, health and vitality.” -JC

Change and transitions are a part of life but most of us struggle with how to deal with it. Especially when we weren’t expecting it. We may deny what’s happening, retreat from dealing with it, or simply have no idea what to do. In these sessions, we will go through strategies and skills to assist in moving through these transitions in a steady, grounded and compassionate way. 

If you are dealing with any of the following, this series is for you:

A health diagnosis, end of a relationship, physical injury, loss of a loved one, a child leaving for college, loss of a job, moving to a new state….or anything I have missed!

The first session will focus on the mind, the second on the body, and the third on the spirit. Each session will include exercises for reflection and time for connecting and support. Journal prompts will be given at the end for those who want to expand the work between sessions.
