SUMMARY:Meditative Storytelling Workshop with Maya Savage
DESCRIPTION:Meditative Storytelling is a gentle and powerful workshop that explores storytelling as a way to support healing\, being present\, and connecting with others. Through breathing\, simple movement\, and guided reflection\, participants will use their body’s knowledge to uncover stories held deep inside.

SUMMARY:Changing Tides: An Autumn Mini-Retreat
DESCRIPTION:“Water is fluid\, soft\, and yielding. But water will wear away rock\, which is rigid and cannot yield. As a rule\, whatever is fluid\, soft\, and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard. This is another paradox: what is soft is strong.”\n ― Lao Tzu \nAutumn is a masterful teacher\, reminding us that change is the only constant. Join Emily Balawejder aboard Riverlife’s Shore Thing for a special autumn mini-retreat that honors the season’s wisdom as we close a summer of yoga floating aboard this beautiful platform. \nEvery action can hold meaning if we allow it. Ceremony and ritual help us mark the passage of time and embrace the next steps ahead. In this riverside gathering\, we’ll pause\, reflect\, and reconnect with ourselves through ritual\, movement\, and meditation. \nWhat to Expect\nOpening welcome + grounding meditation\n \nWe’ll begin with an element-focused welcome and a guided meditation to cultivate ease in the inevitability of change\, accompanied by complimentary seasonal herbal tea. \nIntention-setting ritual\n \nA reflective practice to honor summer’s gifts and set intentions for the season ahead. \nSlow-flow yoga practice (60 minutes)\n \nA mindful movement practice designed to balance grounding and letting go\, strength and surrender. \nClosing contemplation\n \nSpace for journaling\, reflection\, and riverside connection\, with prompts provided to carry into the new season. \nWhat to Bring \nA yoga mat and comfortable layers for the outdoor setting. Journals are welcome; note paper will also be provided. \nTiming \nThe retreat begins promptly at 9:00am. Please plan to arrive a few minutes early to settle in so we can begin together.
