Rest in Radiance: Restorative Yoga + Yoga Nidra, Sunday, June 28th, 7-8:30pm
As we enter into the fullness of summer, this practice invites us to reconnect with the radiant quality of our own being, not as something we must earn or manufacture, but as something already present beneath striving, depletion, and distraction.
In yogic philosophy, the true self is often described as luminous, whole, and untouched by circumstance. Together, we'll soften enough to rest in that remembering.
This 90-minute offering will include supported restorative yoga, gentle breath awareness, and a guided yoga nidra practice designed to nourish the nervous system and invite ease throughout the body and mind. While deeply restful, this practice also makes space for warmth, vitality, clarity, and inner brightness, qualities associated with the expansive energy of the summer season.
No prior experience with yoga or meditation is necessary. All bodies and levels of experience are welcome.
When: Sunday, June 28th, 7-8:30pm
Location: Inner Light Community Center, 5150 Stilesboro Rd NW, Suite 320, Kennesaw, GA 30152
Investment: $30 and space is limited. Please bring your own mat and a favorite blanket. Additional blocks, bolsters, and blankets are available for your use.
Rest in Awareness: Restorative Yoga + Yoga Nidra, Friday, July 17th, 7-8:30pm
Rest in Awareness is a deeply nourishing practice designed to support rest, relaxation, and nervous system regulation. Each 90-minute session combines supported restorative yoga and guided yoga nidra, inviting the body to soften, the mind to settle, and awareness to expand beyond the constant doing of daily life.
Restorative yoga encourages physical ease through the use of props and comfortable, fully supported postures, while yoga nidra offers a guided meditative experience that cultivates stillness and deep presence. Together, these practices create space to replenish energy, reduce stress, and reconnect with a sense of inner steadiness.
No prior experience with yoga or meditation is necessary. All bodies, levels of experience, and abilities are welcome.

Holistic Yoga: From Movement to Stillness, Sunday, July 26th, 2-4pm
In many modern yoga classes, movement is often the primary focus. In this two-hour practice, we'll explore yoga as a complete system, gradually moving from the more tangible practices of mindful movement into the subtler practices of pranayama (conscious breathing) and meditation.
Through these practices, we'll create space to settle the body, steady the mind, and experience the deeper dimensions of yoga. The spacious format allows time to slow down, integrate, and explore yoga beyond the poses.
When: Sunday, July 26th, 2-4pm
Location: Inner Light Community Center, 5150 Stilesboro Rd NW, Suite 320, Kennesaw, GA 30152
Investment: $35. Please bring your own mat and a journal/pen. All props will provided. If cost is a barrier, please reach out.
Slow Down + Exhale, Friday, July 31st, 6-7:15pm
This Friday evening practice offers a chance to intentionally shift gears, release the week behind you, and settle into the weekend with greater ease.
Together, we'll move through a slow, grounding sequence that emphasizes mindful movement, gentle stretching, and time to linger in postures without rushing. Most of the practice takes place close to the ground, allowing the body to soften while creating space for breath, release, and reflection.
We'll close with a brief guided meditation to help quiet the mind and support a sense of calm and clarity as you move into the weekend.
No prior yoga or meditation experience is necessary. All levels are welcome.
When: Friday, 6-7:15pm
Location: Inner Light Community Center, 5150 Stilesboro Rd NW, Suite 320, Kennesaw, GA 30152
Investment: $25. Please bring your own mat. Props will be provided.
Yoga Book Club: Beyond Anxiety Sunday, August 30th, 1-4pm
Yoga Book Club brings together some of my favorite things: meaningful conversation, mindful movement, community, snacks, and, of course, a really good book!
For this gathering, we'll discuss Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's Purpose by Martha Beck. In this thoughtful and accessible book, Beck explores anxiety through the lenses of neuroscience, psychology, creativity, and contemplative practice. Rather than treating anxiety as something to fight or eliminate, she invites us to approach it with curiosity, compassion, and greater self-understanding.
This book offered me a broader perspective on how cultivating creativity might be the antidote to anxiety. The themes in the book weave beautifully with yoga's teachings on awareness, presence, and cultivating a more skillful relationship with our inner experience.
Join us for an afternoon of slow flow yoga, community circle, facilitated discussion, refreshments, and a closing guided meditation.
When: Sunday, August 30th, 1-4pm
Location: Inner Light Community Center, 5150 Stilesboro Rd NW, Suite 320, Kennesaw, GA 30152
Investment: $40. Please bring your own mat. Props will be provided. Cost of book is not included. I encourage you to support your local bookstores and libraries.
