Recovery Yoga is an all-level yoga class that is open to anyone in any type of addiction recovery and anywhere on their recovery journey! In a sweet and welcoming space we dial into the energy of breath and tune into the transformational power of yoga! We will practice a Hatha style flow then settle into a more yin style with longer held postures. Lastly, we’ll have a meditation with a reading or theme in a circle and share our experiences of strength and hope. This is a donations-based class, please pay what you can.
Once you sign up for class you will see the details on where to meet.
No props provided, so please bring your own mat or towel to practice on outdoors.
Hello dear friends,
I wanted to share with you that we have expanded our bookshelves to include some products for your altar and the altar of your body. I am only interested in sharing a very select few products with you that I personally use and love, that I feel are made honorably.
Crystals of amethyst, citrine, quartz, and honey calcite bring grounding, expansive pure energy to your home or altar.
Pure products made from Ula Botanic on Orcas, Island. I have brought these select products to our yoga home because I personally, wholeheartedly recommend them. I use the ritual mists daily. I even keep one in my car. I spray it on or near my face and take a deep breath in. Instantly I feel grounded and transformed. It’s a beautiful way to pause in a transition. The rose oil I use on my face and I feel uplifted. It actually brings me joy! Also, my skin loves it. The Dream oil is new to me. I have just given one to my daughter. I will let you know what she thinks :)
Soon we will also have Everyday Oil in stock. Wait til you smell this. You’ll want to wear it on your skin, in your hair, massage into your feet and share with friends. (I also keep one of these in my bag!)
I will order more books sometime soon. If you have anything you personally recommend or are looking for, please let me know.
I hope you enjoy our expanding selection of items to bring more harmony into your day.
With love,
Laela

RACH JUNARD (she/they)
Rach’s bio – I found yoga when I was a teenager growing up in Nashville, TN. I spent the next few years trying as many different styles and bouncing around studios before landing at the studio I did my first 200 RYT in 2017. I was trained in Power Vinyasa and eventually started to explore the vast definition of yoga philosophy and how to incorporate it into my life. As a yoga instructor and guide, I value inclusive communication and trauma-informed language to create brave spaces for students to explore their own style and feel empowered doing so. You can learn more about me and my practices from my website, rachdoesyoga.com.
Rach is teaching Flow Yoga on Mondays 5:30-6:30 pm at Yoga NW.
LIZ McCAUSLAND (she/her)
Liz’s Bio – The gift of yoga in my life is the experience of being present, aware, and embodied in the moment. It is easy to be distracted by the hustle of modern life and yoga is the North Star that brings me back to center. Though my journey with yoga started almost 30 years ago, it was when I met my teacher in 2016 that I began my deep dive into yoga philosophy. Like dry kindling to a flame, I completed Ananda Temple’s course “Art and Science of Raja Yoga” in 2017 and knew that I wanted to share the benefits of yoga to my community. I enrolled in my 200hr teaching certificate in 2018 and completed an additional 300hr training in 2019, both at Yoga Bhoga in Portland, OR. My classes are Hatha yoga based, where we will move with intention and develop our own personal alignment in each pose. Through the movement of our bodies, my hope is that we can find deep, personal transformation through form and establish a calm nervous system in an ever-changing world. May our practice together establish a peaceful center for you to radiate your true self. Come as you are, beginners and long-term practitioners alike!
Liz is teaching Hatha Yoga on Saturdays 11-12:15 at Yoga NW.
