"Be patient, for there is certainly specific work waiting for you. Or did you think that the universe went to twenty billion years of work to create you if there was not a particular function that you—and only you—could do? The creative powers residing in you will be evoked in time for the work they were created for."

Eco-Somatic Listening Groups
(In person in Fairfax)
Registration is open for
October and November cycles
Tuesdays 7pm - 8:15pm
Cost: $145
In times of uncertainty, both personal and planetary, sometimes the wisest thing we can do is get quiet and listen. There is a tendency, in the face of discomfort, to try to escape ourselves—to plan, fix, and do more, to project, blame, and cast guilt, to check out, numb out, and withdraw from the world. Oftentimes, however, when we meet our experience head-on, with a quality of curiosity and exploration, something is offered to us from within. An inner intelligence rises up to meet our open awareness, presenting us with unexpected wisdom, guidance, and revelation.
Listening Groups are a space where, together, we choose to slow down, get quiet, and just listen. Rooted in the understanding of the body as an extension of Earth and Cosmos, Eco-Somatic Listening seeks to uncover a deeper intelligence that moves beyond the limitations of personal psychology to perhaps offer us something we might not have discovered on our own.
Groups meet on Tuesdays evenings for one month, where each week we will learn and deepen the practice of Eco-Somatic Listening. Groups are limited to eight people. We will meet in-person in Fairfax.
October Cycle: Meets Tuesdays October 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th from 7pm-8:15pm.
November Cycle: Meets Tuesdays November 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th from 7pm-8:15pm.
Cost: $145, please pay via venmo to reserve your spot: @sallyhaskins. Be sure to include which month in the payment description.
Embodiment: Somatic-Meditation to expand your worldview
(In person in san Anselmo)
Embodiment is a group practice that weaves together narrative, embodied practice, and sensorial experience in the exploration of what it means to be a human member of our planetary community during a time that calls for a radical new way of being. Western culture has contributed to an immense disconnect from our bodies, the Earth, and our deep web of relations, and it is ultimately this disconnect that is responsible for much of the harm and suffering occurring all across the planet. When we slow down and learn to listen to the ways in which our bodies are constantly communicating, we can access a living, breathing intelligence, whose sentience stems from the primordial powers of the cosmos itself. This intelligence, when felt, offers us the wisdom necessary to help us rediscover the ways in which we can live well and in right relationship with ourselves, each other, and our more-than-human relations.
This practice involves time spent in an inward, meditative inquiry, punctuated by moments of sharing and group connection. Sharing is always optional and never expected. This practice serves those who are looking for deeper meaning, purpose, connection and belonging specifically in relation to the uncertainty of our times. No yoga experience is necessary. Come exactly as you are.

Nervous System Reset
(In person in san Anselmo)
This yoga class aims to support your nervous system by slowing down and syncing up with your body’s natural rhythms in order to create a felt-sense of ease, steadiness, and resilience throughout the body. Each class incorporates mindful meditation to situate your awareness inward, followed by simple, rhythmic movement synchronized with breath, and ending with a restorative posture and optional hands-on touch. The entire arc of the class will help you to unwind stored tensions and cultivate an ever-deepening still and quiet place within.
Mondays at 12pm | Home Yoga Studio, San Anselmo
