Welcome, Essence Members!

We’re so glad you’re here.

Below you’ll find your seasonal highlights, access links, and event invitations.

This page will update throughout the season—bookmark it and check in often!

  • July 14 to Aug 22 @ 6a and 9p

    Online meetup for a structured home practice of guided breathwork, mantra, and reflection. A brief yet powerful daily celestial movement practice—a re-learning of the language of energy through breath, movement, and subtle awareness.

    * Be ready to stand, stretch, chant and practice concentration.

    * It’s helpful to use headphones for optimal focus.

    * Plan to have video on so I can help you and so you can contribute to the group. Occasionally off is ok if truly needed.

    Early morning and evening options. Online & accessible to meet you wherever you are. 20 minutes of your time—an opportunity to express this version of YOU!

    Open to all members.
