YOGIC SLEEP
Guided Meditation and the Brain
"Yoga Nidra is the master key to to initiating shifts in conscious sleep states where change happens outside of doing. In Yoga Nidra you enter a state of non-doing in which transformation happens from beyond the mind rather than through the mind. In this highly regenerative meditative state you can restore and rejuvenate your body, heal and recover from illness and re-wire your brain for greater mental and emotional balance and resiliency." - Kamini Desai
2023 GOAL CALENDAR
I had originally made this for myself but when I sent it to a friend, she lovingly suggested I share it as others might find value in it.
Now I haven't edited it since making it for myself, so if there's any errors or anything that doesn't resonate - that's okay! I encourage you to shift this however you need to so that you start and continue 2023 living inspired and fulfilled.

SHADOW WORK & THE 7 DEADLY SINS
[replays available]
Taking a deep dive into shadow work this October, Amanda from Self-Agency with Amanda Jane and Casey from Echo-Phoenix Wellness will be using this four part series to explore the seven deadly sins, archetype theory, body/mind connection, identity construction, the brain, and more.
While each meeting covers a different topic and sin, this series is created where you can take all 4, or sign up for individual workshops depending on your preference. The replay can be made available to those unable to attend.
Each session will dissect the above ideas along with prompts and exercises to create a full interactive foray into your own shadow side and how to illuminate the very depths of self.
------------------------------------------------------
Four meetings in October:
(1) The Brian + Pride
(2) Greed + Lust
(3) Wrath + Gluttony
(4) Envy + Sloth
