Call to Retreat: Restorative Yoga and Acupuncture

  • Cloudbreak Yoga 1621 Bridgeway Sausalito, CA, 94965 United States (map)

This time at Cloudbreak Yoga, in Sausalito, 5:30-7:30pm!


Join John Berlinsky and Erin Stewart for a special evening of restorative yoga followed by savasana with acupuncture for deep relaxation and restoration.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Winter is the season of profound rejuvenation. The body’s Qi or vital energy runs deepest at this time and, if given the opportunity, it can bring deep renewal to areas of the mind and body in need of support.

The Kidney and Bladder meridians come alive during Winter. They are responsible for firmly rooting our Qi, calming the Mind and replenishing the body’s vital energy. Balancing these meridians can help gently release feelings of anxiety, unease and fear, promote restful sleep, and impart a deep sense of nourishment and peace.

We will spend time moving through restorative postures (45 minutes) followed by an extended savasana (45 minutes) with acupuncture points that have been selected to rebalance and stimulate the body’s vital energy.

Cost: $55 (10% off for Metta Yoga members applies automatically at checkout)
