Sunday July 26, 2026 8:00am - 9:00am EDT

Limited Capacity seats available

Begin your day by opening the heart.
This gentle sunrise practice draws from the ancient Pali tradition of metta — loving-kindness — a meditation that trains the heart to meet every being, including ourselves, with warmth and care. As the morning light gathers over the Blue Ridge Mountains, we'll move through the traditional phrases of metta: toward ourselves, toward loved ones, toward strangers, toward all beings everywhere.
No meditation experience needed. No perfect stillness required. Just a willingness to show up, breathe, and let love be the first thing you offer the day.
All levels welcome. Bring a blanket. Come with an open heart.

From a still glowing bead of dew to a floating blossoming white moon steeping quietly in the serene landscape of your heart, our body softens into Akash, spaciousness as we become our breath, that flows like a calm river through your body as you steep slowly, softening until the joints become quiet portals, melting any hidden tension while held by the earth. In the stillness of yin, the mind and body unfold naturally like petals opening to the morning light.

Masonic Temple (Ballroom)

Limited Capacity seats available

Vinyasa Flow is the practice of synchronizing movement with breath, creating a continuous rhythm that links effort and awareness. Rooted in the Iyengar and Ashtanga traditions, vinyasa also allows space for creative interpretation, psychological insight, and spiritual inquiry, making it a living, evolving practice rather than a fixed form.

Because of its fluid nature, vinyasa requires thoughtful sequencing and precise cueing to support stability, integrity, and safety. When done well, it builds strength without strain, mobility without collapse, and focus without rigidity. This class explores both the physical architecture and the subtle intelligence of vinyasa practice, emphasizing how alignment, breath, and transitions work together to support the nervous system and prepare the body for meditation.

We will move through the traditional arc of a vinyasa class, including Sun Salutations, standing poses, hip openers, backbends, forward bends, inversions, yin, and restorative postures. Along the way, we will examine breathwork, the relationship between effort and ease, as well as the benefits and potential risks of common postures.
This class is designed for students who want a deeper understanding of asana, and for teachers interested in how I organize, pace, and instruct vinyasa as both a technical and devotional practice.

Authentic Relationships: Cultivate Fulfilling Connections with Astrology

Masonic Temple (Theater)

Limited Capacity seats available

Join counseling astrologer and integrative mentor, Mary Kathryn Jackson, as we unlock the keys to building healthy, mutually supportive relationships where everyone feels valued, deeply known, and free to be themselves. Using astrology as a roadmap, we’ll explore communication styles, emotional temperaments, and relationship needs, teaching you how to work with each other, not against each other, so you can cultivate connections that are truly enriching and authentic.

Through practical and playful discussion, you’ll learn the range of relationship needs through the lens of astrology, helping you navigate your connections with clarity, compassion, depth, and freedom for individuality in togetherness. We’ll discuss communication prompts to apply in real-life relationship scenarios, offering you new perspectives on how to work well with your loved ones. This is about building and nurturing relationships where each person can thrive and grow — children, partners, family, and friends.

Whether you're new to astrology or have been studying it for years, this workshop offers fresh perspectives and practical tools to deepen your relationships and enhance genuine connection. All are welcome. Come alone or bring a friend. This will be a lecture and discussion learning experience (a fun and helpful one, at that!) Bring your notebook.

What if the joy you are searching for is already alive within you — even with all the suffering and pain in the world?

Join Coby Kozlowski for an experiential journey into Instinctive Meditation™ — a practice less about escaping life and more about celebrating the pulse of being alive.
Through reflection, story, and guided meditation, you’ll explore an approach that begins with what you love as a doorway to embodied joy. A practice that helps us hold both the joy and the grief of being human.

Together we’ll rediscover a way of relating to life that is intimate, awake, and astonishing.
Come listen for the roar of joy within you.

Release and Empower: A Breathwork Ceremony

LIMITED

Sunday July 26, 2026 10:00am - 11:30am EDT

The Venue (Balcony)

Limited Capacity seats available

Release tension and connect with your intuition in this intimate breathwork ceremony.
After a short introduction on how to safely perform the breath, you’ll lie down, get comfortable, and be guided through active breathwork, set to carefully curated music to carry you through your journey inward. Afterwards, you’ll float away into bliss, clarity, and unconditional love in a deeply restorative meditation. We’ll close the ceremony with time for journaling to integrate the intuitive guidance received, and open the space up for supportive sharing and reflection.

This breathwork style is called ‘conscious connected breathing’, based on a circular and rhythmic three-part breath pattern. By activating new neural pathways in the brain, you will lift the veil to your subconscious mind. This allows the clarity of your intuition to come through with clarity, compassion, and multi-faceted awareness. There are no limits to what answers you may receive!

Please note that this can be a very intense style of breathwork that may cause some hyperventilation side effects. Not recommended for those with cardiovascular disease or heart/respiratory conditions (ex, high/low blood pressure, history of heart attacks or strokes, severe asthma), if you’re prone to fainting, or if you’re pregnant.

Please bring a cloth or an eye mask to cover your eyes!

Unclench: Somatic Myofascial Release for Anxious Times

Ella

Limited Capacity seats available

We live in a world that keeps us braced. The butt tightens, the hips grip, the shoulders creep toward the ears — and after a while, we stop noticing. The body simply becomes the place where the weight of uncertain times takes up permanent residence.
This workshop offers a systematic, deeply satisfying path back to greater ease. Drawing on somatic awareness, myofascial release, and nervous system science, we'll work through the body's most common stress-holding sites using tools that are accessible, effective, and immediately repeatable at home.

Together we will explore:

Therapeutic shaking and tremoring — one of the body's oldest and most underutilized self-regulation tools, used to discharge held bracing and reset the nervous system at its roots

Soft foam rolling for the hip flexors and glutes — the body's emotional core, chronically contracted in anxiety and stress, and profoundly responsive to patient, intentional release

Breathing practices for self-regulation — targeted breathwork that speaks directly to the autonomic nervous system, shifting us out of fight-or-flight and into a felt sense of safety

We'll close with a grounding yoga sequence to integrate everything the body has just released, helping you arrive back in yourself as a place you actually want to be.

Sanctuary of Sound is a one-hour sound bath with gong, mindfully curated to offer deep rest, nervous system regulation, and a return to inner stillness. After some gentle stretching and breathwork, participants are invited to lie down comfortably and be held in a cocoon of resonant sound as waves of vibration from the gong move through the body and the surrounding space.
This is not a practice of doing, it is the ultimate “undoing”, a practice of receiving. The vibrations of the gong offer healing, refuge, and a reset – clear of habitual thought patterns, clear of stress, tension, and fatigue. This is the sanctuary of sound, the sanctuary where we allow our body to fulfill its inherent capacity for restoration, healing, and insight.
No experience is necessary. Simply arrive, rest, and allow sound to hold you.

Close The Love Shine Play Festival with a signature Blissology journey, a moving, breathing ceremony that gathers the energy of the weekend and turns it into something deeply personal and lasting.
Most people never pause long enough to get clear on what they truly want.
This is your moment to listen.
We move through strong, fluid vinyasa to build heat, release tension, and open the body. Then we shift into breath and stillness, quieting the noise so something real can come through.
When the body opens, the mind follows.
When the mind is clear, your direction reveals itself.
From that place, we move into a closing ceremony together.
You will write a letter to your future self, the one shaped by what you choose, beginning now.
Not a wish. A decision.
Stop bobbing around. Start surfing the waves of your life, the ones your future self will thank you for.
