Each week’s practice explores a different theme or meditation technique, which may include breath awareness, grounding, body awareness, visualization, relaxation, emotional support, or present-moment awareness.

These gentle practices are suitable for beginners and experienced meditators alike. You are welcome to sit, lie down, keep your eyes open, or adapt the meditation in whatever way feels most supportive.

No previous meditation experience is needed.

This gentle October practice invites you to soften, surrender, and release. Through mindful forward folds and intentional movement, we’ll create space through the waist and lower back, easing tension and cultivating a deeper sense of physical ease. A quiet invitation to slow down, let go, and move into the season with softness and spaciousness.
This class is a sweet and gentle blend of Yoga Styles ending in a 10 to 15 min relaxing and restoring Yoga Nidra and designed for the ones among us with busy and active lifestyles especially if you have been feeling a little tense or pressed for time.

With a monthly rotating focus we usually start the class with some centering and breath work , holding poses for slightly longer periods of time, targeting the connective tissues of the body to help release deeply stored tension It is often experienced as deeply meditative, as it invites the practitioner to completely release and let go.
From there we will be moving slowly up with a gentle breath-based Vinyasa flow to build mind/ body strength and flexibility, challenging balance and concentration, and harnessing that energy to promote inner stillness and peace.
At the end of the class of about 45 min there is a choice to quietly leave after a short savasana or stay for a brief 10 to 15 min Yoga Nidra or restorative Yoga practice . Yoga NIDRA is the practice of yogic sleep , a guided meditation technique, which utilizes various practices of body, breath, mind, energy & spirit to draw individuals into deeper and subtler states of being where total relaxation and peace and profound healing becomes available. A nourishing and grounding practice, that does not require any extra preparation or knowledge, Nidra is the perfect way to round out your practice and return to your busy life peaceful, rejuvenated and restored.

If Deb was scheduled to teach that evening, she will record the meditation and share it the following day.

Join us each Tuesday evening for a gentle 10–15 minute community meditation followed by optional time for connection, reflection, and questions about your practice.

This is a simple midweek space to pause, breathe, reconnect, and spend a little time together in community. The meditation itself is short, welcoming, and open to everyone. You’re invited to come as you are, settle in, and share a few moments of practice together.

Afterward, you’re welcome to stay for conversation, practice questions, or simply a little connection with others. Sharing is always optional.

No experience is needed. Just arrive and breathe.

Sessions may be led by Deb, Peaceful Wellness Meditation Training graduates, or current teacher-training students.

When Deb leads the meditation, the audio is recorded and shared afterward, with any group conversation edited out.

You do not need to force a particular feeling or emotional response. You are invited to work with the words and guidance in whatever way feels comfortable and authentic for you.
