Yoga Nidra
Yoga Nidra, often referred to as “yogic sleep” is a guided meditation that allows you to enter a state of conscious physical, mental, and emotional relaxation. Yoga Nidra is known to facilitate profound healing and transformation through finding complete rest in a state of dynamic sleep. You will lay in savasana the entire time as you follow the guided mediation into deeper layers of consciousness within a state between wakefulness and sleep.
Please bring water and a blanket. Traditionally, yoga nidra is done without a pillow, but feel free to bring one for comfort. Yoga mats are optional, as the library has them available for use.
Instructor Bio: Shannon has been practicing yoga for over five years. Since working at a yoga studio and wellness center in 2021, she knew she wanted to help others physically, mentally, and spiritually. Shannon is Yoga Nidra, Yin Yoga, and Reiki Il certified, and is currently pursuing her Reiki Masters certification. Her future prospects include opening a wellness practice of her own. In her free time, Shannon enjoys reading, writing, painting, and being in nature as much as possible.

Morning Motion
Find foundational skills and knowledge in this Morning Motion class. This session will be introductions, basic concepts, and tips and tricks for a daily morning movement practice. This will include stretching, basic yoga poses, breathwork, and energy flow techniques that wake up the body at the start of your day. This class is perfect beginners. Join Shannon in this beautiful practice!
Please bring water and a blanket. Traditionally, yoga nidra is done without a pillow, but feel free to bring one for comfort. Yoga mats are optional, as the library has them available for use.

Shannon is Yoga Nidra, Yin Yoga, and Reiki Il certified, and is currently pursuing her Reiki Masters certification. Her future prospects include opening a wellness practice of her own.
