Women's Circle

Join Alia for an evening dedicated to reclaiming the joy in movement. Let's face it - the fitness industry has taken all the fun out of movement! We're told that the only reason to move our bodies is to work out, and that working out has to be hard to be "worthwhile," and so we end up feeling like moving our bodies is yet another chore on our ever-growing to-do list. But movement can also feel amazing, and fill us with joy! We'll spend the evening unpacking our negative beliefs around movement and replacing them with joyful ones.


The evening begins with some very gentle movement (no mat required) and a Sound Bath to help everyone relax and leave their work week behind. Next, Alia will give a short talk on the Circle topic, and lead a guided meditation. You'll then be given time to journal about what came up for you during meditation, before pairing up with a buddy to discuss. We'll close with a group discussion while enjoying our snacks together!

Be sure to bring your journal and something to write with. You're welcome to get creative and bring art supplies and fun pens if that's your jam! The evening includes an optional potluck, so feel free to bring something tasty to share with your friends!

friday, February 7th,
7:30-9:30pm
Tickets: $44 | O+L Members get 15% off!

A Note From Alia


As women, we are constantly asked to care for the needs of others, and often expected to put our own needs last. Setting healthy boundaries to protect our physical, mental, and emotional health can be incredibly challenging, and often the source of guilt and shame. Same with prioritizing our self care - we've been trained to believe that putting ourselves first - ever - is selfish.
 
It's time for us, as a community of women, to re-write those narratives. 
 
We'll begin with a short guided meditation practice to calm the mind and begin to reflect on your inner monologue around the topic, and any patterns of negativity you want to work on changing.  Next, you'll spend some time with your journal, exploring the thoughts and ideas that came up for you. Then you'll pair up with a buddy and discuss. Finally, we'll reconvene as a group to share and discuss the common themes that will inevitably arise, and brainstorm ways that we can support each other as a community and re-write this narrative together in each of our own lives.
