Foundations: Yoga for Pelvic Floor Health Workshop
Join for a 2-hour immersive workshop exploring the often-overlooked foundation of our physical well-being: the pelvic floor.
We’ll begin with an accessible discussion of pelvic floor anatomy, common (but not “normal”) issues that can arise from dysfunction, and how these concerns can affect the body as a whole. You’ll learn about key fascial lines connecting the pelvis to other parts of the body, the role of the breath in pelvic floor health, and how disconnection from our body can quietly develop over time. You’ll leave knowing you’re not alone — and that there are supportive, holistic tools to help you reconnect.
Following a Q&A, we’ll move into a gentle, alignment-focused yoga practice to help you move with awareness, stability, and ease. You’ll explore breath, posture, and mindful movement to create balance and strength in the pelvic floor. This session is open to all levels and is especially supportive for anyone seeking to prevent or address pelvic floor dysfunction in a compassionate, nonjudgmental space.
Shannon’s approach is rooted in deep respect for the body’s innate wisdom, weaving together her medical background, holistic wellness practices, and love for nature. Currently studying herbalism, she embraces the interconnectedness of body, mind, and spirit — empowering you to build a strong and harmonious foundation from the inside out.

Family Friendly Forest Bathing
A mindful nature experience designed for families to slow down, connect, and wonder together.
This is not a hike, but a gentle, guided walk through the forest—filled with playful invitations to notice the beauty and rhythms around you.
We’ll move slowly, using our senses to explore textures, sounds, and patterns in nature, followed by quiet creative time near the creek.
Our time together includes:

• A short grounding circle or nature-based meditation
• Time by the creek for drawing, coloring, or nature journaling
• Moments to reflect and share what you noticed, together
This session is ideal for children who are able to walk the trail independently and sit for short periods.
We invite curiosity, wonder, and moments of stillness—with room for gentle movement and exploration.
Please bring your child’s favorite materials for journaling or creative expression (a notebook, colored pencils, crayons, or sketchbook—whatever they enjoy using).
Bringing your own keeps things simple and familiar for your child. Water, snacks, and any comfort items are also welcome.
⸻
🌱 Details:
• Designed for families with children ages ~5 and up (younger kids are welcome if they can participate mindfully)
• 75-minute session
• Price includes up to 4 participants (typically 1–2 adults and their children)
• Small group size to keep the experience peaceful and spacious
⸻
Come as you are—playful, tired, curious, or quiet. Nature welcomes it all.
This is a space for families to reconnect not only with nature, but with each other—through presence, creativity, and shared stillness.

Summer Solstice on the Beach
Join us for a special Summer Solstice gathering, where we’ll slow down, connect with nature, and tune in to what’s blooming in our lives.
Inspired by forest bathing, this shoreline experience invites you to fully engage your senses—feeling the sand beneath your feet, listening to the rhythm of the waves, and soaking in the golden light of summer.
Mid-Week Reset: Forest Bathing
Forest Bathing is the Japanese practice of Shinrin-yoku. This is a meditation practice in nature using your five major senses to connect, ground and calm your mind, body and soul.
Join me for a mid-week reset to clear your mind and recharge, so you can finish the week with ease and start your weekend feeling refreshed.
We'll start with some gentle somatic (body) movement to ease into the session, followed by a short meditation to awaken your senses to the beauty around us.
From there, we'll take a mindful, unhurried walk, allowing nature to guide our steps.
Afterward, we'll sit quietly for about 20minutes for an open-eyed meditation, observing the forest's quiet rhythms, without the distractions of technology.
Then we will finish with a nature journaling session to reflect on your experience, whether this is through drawing or writing.
This forest bath will leave you feeling grounded and more connected to the world around
you.
To Note:
The trail is uneven and steep at times, so sturdy shoes are necessary 🥾
We will be walking about 1-1.5miles total distance 🚶🏽
What should you bring?:
A backpack to hold: 🧣Layers of clothing 🧢 Sun protection 🚰 Water 🧘🏻♀️ A ground blanket to sit on 📔 A journal and pen/crayons/ pencils/water colors etc - whatever you have on hand to capture your moment 👩🏻🎨

Mindful Nature Walk with Qigong and Sound Healing
🌿 Experience a Mindful Nature Walk with Qigong & Sound Healing Meditation 🎶
With Shannon and Angela
Join us for a rejuvenating journey through nature, blending mindfulness, movement, and sound healing in a serene outdoor setting.
✨ We’ll begin with a quiet, mindful walk, incorporating forest bathing techniques to deepen our connection with the natural world.
Our path will cover approximately 2-3 miles total (1-1.5mi one way) of uneven and, at times, steep terrain.
Upon reaching our destination, we’ll engage in gentle Qigong movements to harmonize body and breath before settling into a soothing sound healing meditation.
💫 Afterward, we’ll close our circle with time for reflection, discussion, and community connection as we make our way back to the trailhead.
What to Bring:
🎒 Backpack to carry everything
🧘♀️ A ground blanket or mat for sitting
🥾 Sturdy shoes for uneven terrain
💧 Water, sun protection, and layers for comfort
❣️ Important Notes:
🚻 Bathrooms are available at the trailhead.
📵 Cell service is VERY limited—please review directions in advance.
🚴♂️ Expect a longer-than-usual commute due to cyclists on the road.
🥞 Optional: Continue the conversation and deepen connections over brunch at Alice’s Restaurant under the redwoods (not included in the event fee).
🌿 Come as you are and leave feeling refreshed, grounded, and connected. We look forward to sharing this experience with you!
