Body Reclamation for Reparations
In order to come back into the fullness of life we must learn how to get in contact with our bodies. You will walk away with knowledge about how trauma and our fragmented culture disconnect us from our body and gain practical tools for how to enliven and regulate your nervous system. Myofascial release, yoga, breathwork, and somatic movement will be utilized to help you find a new, more resiliant relationship with your body. When we can get comfortable with being uncomfortable, the whole spectrum of life becomes more vivid, and we can use our resources to be more responsible and sensitive ally’s.

Sip & Scan with iTovi & Bethany Jury
An iTovi is a Bio-feedback machine that helps take the guesswork out of what oils and supplements you need to help balance your body. Feeling off? It’s crazy how much this machine works.
Full disclosure, I’m not a scientist: I can’t tell you exactly how biofeedback works. It’s only weird if it works, and it DOES.

I showed up to yoga, stressed to the max with everything I had to do. I had talks to give, taxes to do, people to get back to, a book to complete, and a blog article to write. As my yoga instructor was guiding us through her sequence, I found myself cycling between feeling overwhelmed about how I was going get everything done, what I should write my blog article about, and trying to remind myself that I needed to be present.
