with Rose Petruzzi
St. John's Parish Hall
$35 Pre-Registration Required
Rose Petruzzi, “The Gong Lady”, has been practicing and performing Gong Meditation and Relaxation sessions for individuals, and groups for over 12 years. Her love and curiosity of yoga, meditation, breathing practices, kriya, kirtan, mudra, mantra, movement and community, culminated in her achieving numerous certifications pertaining to the yogic arts and it’s therapeutic benefits.
She has had the great honor and joy to work with populations of various levels and abilities, starting as an art therapist and child life therapist early in her career, to a creative arts teacher, illustrator, and more recently, since 2012, as a Gong Meditation Practitioner, for those who are needing to release from anxiety, stress, pain and trauma.
She believes, one’s healing, is firmly seated within the individual, and if only given the opportunity to relax, release, and relate to one’s inner guidance and wisdom, self-healing is assured.
Rose is honored and humbled to be a part of your journey.
Restorative Yoga with Live Piano
Next Date TBA
St. John's Parish Hall
$45 In Advance, $50 at the Door
Experience ultimate relaxation and stress reduction.
Restorative yoga implements the use of props (blankets, bolsters, blocks and straps) to support your body so you can stay in restful positions longer, allowing the time needed for deep, passive stretching.
Positions are usually adapted from supine or seated yoga poses with the addition of props to eliminate unnecessary strain.
A restorative yoga practice is an opportunity to realign with optimal health and well being.
Along with guided breathing techniques, and accompanied by softly played beautiful piano music, what better way to ease into spring.

More on Alpha & Theta Brain Waves
