Chris Omni: Breathwork Workshop
Breathwork Workshop
9/28/21, 5:30-7:30PM EST, in Elsewhere’s garden (or inside if raining)
$5-15 goes directly to the artist, 7-17 people, masks required, (we will maintain a waitlist if it fills).
Current resident and scholar artist, Chris Omni, MPH (@motherearthacademy) invites you to join her in the Elsewhere Garden to participate in a breathwork workshop. Participants can expect to enter a space of love and light — a space to press pause on the world while focusing on the art of self-restoration through concentrated breathwork.
While breathing through various parts of our body (yes, our breath travels and takes up residency in various spaces), we will focus on the residency of the sacral chakra. The sacral chakra mantra teaches us about creativity, sexuality, relationship, and connection. The mantra: "I love all dimensions of myself. I delight in weaving the creative tapestry that is my life."
5:30PM - Participants (aka Souls of Love & Light) will arrive and select a piece of fabric from the Elsewhere collection that speaks to their spirit.
6:00PM - Gather to hear briefly about Chris’ newfound artist identity. Immediately following this talk, we will spread out and go through the seven energy centers with an emphasis on the sacral chakra.
7:00PM - Journal thoughts regarding the mantra. Sharing is optional.
Optional items to bring: yoga mat, waterbottle, journal, writing utensil
This event is generously sponsored by Rise & Flow Yoga, who are providing two spots in the workshop for community members. Rise & Flow is local Black-owned yoga studio run by Stephany McMillan. Rise & Flow got its start by operated out of Elsewhere (!) and has since expanded greatly. Stephany is currently completing her training as a physical therapist to fulfill her desire to aid the ability of elders to lead a full life.
