Biomat Far Infrared guided rest & rejuvenation with Dr. Paige Yang

2:00 – 3:00pm – Teacher training room

Time increments: 15 minutes

Experience deep relaxation and rejuvenation with a Biomät nap with guided meditation.

During this soothing session, you’ll enjoy a healing nap on our HealthyLine Biomat, a therapeutic mat infused with 21 layers of amethyst, tourmaline, obsidian, quartz and jade stones heated with advanced far-infrared heat and negative ion technology. Together, the Biomat harnesses the healing power of these natural elements in combination with Pulsed Electro Magnetic Field (PMF) waves to enhance your meditative experience and promote overall well-being. These superconductive healing properties cycle up to improve sleep, circulation, support acute and chronic pain, muscle spasms, minor sprains/strains, and can help with regeneration, energizing the mind and/or relaxing the body and mind.

Please make sure you are well hydrated before your visit and come in with a heat preference in mind (see below). Low Heat setting 95-105 degrees promotes better sleep and relaxation of body and mind. Medium Heat setting 105-150 degrees for temporary relief of joint pain, stiffness, and muscle pain. Provides muscular relaxation and increases circulation. High Heat setting 150-160 degrees for a sauna experience when heat is trapped in a mylar blanket or towel. Works to release sweat, improve circulation, and recover faster.

In the context of Chinese medicine, the Biomat’s benefits align with the concept of Qi, which refers to the vital life force energy that flows through our bodies. Chinese medicine emphasizes the balance and free flow of Qi as essential for optimal health and harmony.

Sound Reiki with Anthany Espanet (2 hrs)

2:00 – 3:00 – Teacher training room

Time increments: 15 minutes

Discover the powerful synergy of Reiki and Crystal Tones Alchemy Bowls, melting away tension and bringing tranquility to your body and soul.

Experience the profound healing power of Reiki, a Japanese spiritual practice originating in the early 20th century that promotes balance, relaxation, and well-being. Reiki, which translates to “universal life energy,” was developed by Mikao Usui, a Japanese Buddhist monk who discovered its origins in India after studying the chakra systems. Reiki is based on the belief that an unseen life force energy flows through all living beings, and when this energy is balanced and flowing freely, we experience physical, emotional, and spiritual harmony.

Reiki works by channeling life force energy through the practitioner’s hands to the recipient. The practitioner acts as a conduit for this healing energy, allowing it to flow to areas where it is most needed. It is believed to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and facilitate the body’s natural ability to heal itself.

Astrology with Marsha Pacificar (2.25 hrs)

2:00 – 4:15pm – Side corridor outdoor space where cafe tables are

Time increments: 15 minutes (9 sign ups)

Embark on a fascinating exploration of the cosmos with an astrology reading, an ancient practice that offers insights into your personality, life events, and potential paths. Learn about the wisdom of your Moon, Sun, Rising signs, and the influence of the present transit. Astrology has its roots in the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, dating back over 2,000 years. Mesopotamian astrology influenced other ancient cultures, including the Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, who further developed and refined the practice. Greek philosopher and astronomer Ptolemy’s influential work, “Tetrabiblos,” contributed greatly to the understanding and spread of astrology in the Western world.

These ancient practitioners believed that the positions and movements of celestial bodies held significant meaning and influence over human affairs. Over time, astrology evolved into a complex system of symbols, charts, and interpretations, intertwining science, spirituality, and divination. Let’s unlock your true potential and embrace the magic of the stars!

Ayurveda in the Kitchen: Principles for Every Day Balance with Heather Vaughan

3:45 – 4:45pm – Cafe seating area

Ayurveda, translated as the Study or Science of Life, is the 5000-year-old medical system of India. While you may visit an Ayurvedic Physician to treat any number of ailments from the common cold to neuropathy to fertility to rheumatoid arthritis, basic Ayurvedic Principles, when applied to daily life, empower us with thorough preventative medicine.

In this hour, you will learn how to assess the therapeutic (or not!) qualities of foods and why. We will unpack (and sing!) two foundational sutras, taste delicious foods and make individualized teas for you to take home.

Hosted by Heather

Heather Vaughan, C. AY, MAc, CYT, (she/her) holds dual citizenship in the US (via her father’s line) and the UK via her mother’s. A nomad at heart, she was born in Oakland, California, found a home in the New Mexican high desert for 13 years, followed her sister to Hawaii 3 years ago and makes her way to the Blue Ridge Mountains soon. Heather’s “home” is with her co-conspirator, Shane, and darling dog, Rye.

Heather practices Ayurveda & Integrative Herbalism with 10+ years of clinical experience in a variety of settings including Primary Care, an integrative pharmacy, and private practice and graduates from ICAOM with a Master’s of Acupuncture with a Chinese Herbal Medicine Specialization this summer. A humble student of Dr. Vasant Lad (The Ayurvedic Institute in NM and Gurukula in Pune, India), who was tasked by his guru with bringing Ayurveda to the West, Heather does her best to promote his mission through clinical practice and education. Dr. Lad believes strongly in an integrative, collaborative model that does not dilute or oversimplify any system or tradition, but ego-free allows each to shine in its strength for the benefit of the patient.

Originally a classically trained singer, her journey into medicine began out of necessity. Unable to find relief in Western Biomedicine from Ankylosing Spondylitis, an autoimmune condition of the spine, found a way forward with Ayurveda and Acupuncture. “Disease management” came with a bonus- falling in love with Ayurveda, which gave way to a practice that integrates Ayurveda with Western Herbalism, and very soon, Acupuncture. Music was given back as another bonus. A lover of diving into style, she has performed professionally in over 25 languages and 10 genres, and loves teaching singing.
