“My crown is called content,
a crown that seldom kings enjoy”
William Shakespare
SUMMON YOUR MUSE: The rigorous training and expectations of the arts and sciences leaves many people with a sense of “not being good enough” or in a constant state of busyness. This can leave one with a sense of unhappiness and stress that can break down many aspects of their health and wellbeing. In this workshop you will learn about the nature of the “fight or flight syndrome” and how to execute greater control over it. Here you will experience deep relaxation, enhanced creativity and greater clarity through restorative exercises, mindfulness, sound and movement improv, meditation, breathwork, and more. We also explore “releasing the INNER CRITIC”, replacing maladaptive thinking with positive, empowering thoughts. Self-criticism is a habit that can be altered when our attention is consciously steered in a new direction. NOTE: Not just for musicians. UPCOMING WORKSHOPS: Sylva Yoga December 7, 14 - choose 1:00-2:10pm or 6:30-7:40pm $15 per workshop
PRIVATE WELLNESS COACHING: These private one hour sessions are a more personalized version of Summon Your Muse, designed for self empowerment and greater health and well being.

"Creativity is piercing the mundane to find the marvelous"
Bill Moyers
"Most of us go through life armored and masked and not presenting the raw truth of who we are because we're afraid that if we expose the reality of our being that we'll be hurt, shamed, or rejected. To see all of that fear and still say YES to dropping the armor and the mask and presenting the naked reality of our self is one of the most authentic acts that a human can practice. To define vulnerability as an unmasked state, the power of it is that it's real and true in the most primary way. " Taran Rosenthal
