Chakra Rest Up

We all live very full lives. Our racing minds and sympathetic (fight-or-flight) nervous systems need a break. To maintain our health long-term, it’s essential to rest and restore. Join Meghan Foley and Ellie Roscher as they lead you through a powerful, grounding, and tender 90-minute workshop designed to calm your body and mind through a unique combination of Personal Reflection, Restorative Yoga, Aromatherapy, Hands-on assists, and Massage. Each session will explore one chakra and offer exactly the kind of self-care we all need after a long week. Come, lower your stress level, release long-held tension, and increase your energy levels for a joyful weekend ahead.

Embracing Stillness In A Frantic World: A Retreat For Rest, Reflection And Renewal

Join Twin Cities-based yoga therapist and ayurvedic health counselor Meghan Foley and yoga teacher and author Ellie Roscher in the beautiful woods of Wild Rice Retreat Center for a luscious weekend of cultivating quiet and calm.

We often hear “strengthen your core” in the yoga and fitness world, but what does that really mean? The core encompasses much more than just the 6-pack, and is especially important to take into consideration prenatally and postnatally.

This workshop will teach you about the anatomy of the true core and its functions, incorporate daily movements and postural tips you can practice to keep your core and pelvic floor strong and flexible, as well as go over specific questions and common concerns during the prenatal and postnatal phases of life.

Yoga Philosophy-Yamas & Niyamas

Do you often wonder where yoga comes from? What does it mean to be a yogi? Have you noticed that yoga has affected all aspects of your life? Take your practice deeper by studying the Yamas & Niyamas, the ethical guidelines outlined in the first two limbs of Patanjali’s 8-limbed path in the Yoga Sutras.

In this discussion and lecture-based workshop, we will dive deep into what it means to be a yogi on and off your mat, and by sharing real life examples, make the material relatable, practical and relevant. The study of the Yamas & Niyamas will enrich your practice and your life. All levels welcome.

Intro to Ayurveda

Ayurveda translates from Sanskrit as the “science of life.” We are each born with a certain constitution, or dosha, that determines our personalities, body types, food preferences, emotions, etc. In this workshop, you will learn how to determine your own personal dosha and which breath techniques, yoga styles, postures, foods, and mudras correspond with your particular makeup. The workshop is intended for students of all levels and will also include a short physical practice exploring each dosha and its properties.

You will leave the workshop with a better understanding of this ancient science that will add a new layer of depth to your yoga practice and help you find balance beyond the mat using special techniques designed for your particular dosha.

Intro to Yoga Anatomy

Want to learn about anatomy and how understanding the skeleton and muscles enriches your yoga practice and teaching? This workshop will give both students and teachers a firm foundation in the basic anatomical movements, bones and muscles, as pertains to the yoga practice.

Get to know your body and how to identify common misalignments on and off your mat. From an energetic perspective, when our bones are aligned, our energy can flow more freely, instilling a sense of ease within structure.
