7730 Post Road, North Kingstown, Rhode Island 02852, United States
Thursday September 24th • 6:30-8:00PM
Join us on Thursday September 24th for a restorative and reflective evening as we celebrate the Fall Equinox with a 60-minute yin-yoga practice followed by a 30-min sound immersion led by certified yoga instructor and sound healer, Karen Powers.
The fall equinox marks a moment of balance between day and night, inviting us to reflect on the dualities in our lives — light and dark, activity and rest, outward energy and inward focus. As the weather cools and we move deeper into Fall, the practice of yin offers a perfect opportunity to slow down and cultivate stillness and introspection. Coupled with an extended savasana in sound, you’ll leave feeling refreshed, relaxed, and balanced.
Let's come together, honor this sacred time of year, and tap into its potent energy!

The Benefits of Yin Yoga Practice
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Fall is the season of the Metal Element, representing clarity, boundaries, and letting go what no longer serves you. During this season, the practice of Yin provides energetic and physical nourishment to the Lungs & Large Intestine meridians, helping to balance your energy and to support respiration, elimination, and releasing emotional tension.
The Benefits of Sound
Bathing in sound from crystal and metal singing bowls, chimes, rain sticks, and other sound instruments activates your parasympathetic nervous system which helps your body "rest and digest". The deep rhythmic tones can help reduce stress, improve sleep, loosen tight muscles, improve circulation and so much more, deepening your sense of ease, flow, and harmony in the body.
