Weâll begin our day by gently arrivingâtaking time for introductions and setting personal intentions. Together, weâll create a beautiful mandala from autumnâs natural treasures, a living symbol of release and renewal.
Next, youâll be invited to sink into tuning-fork vibrational healing, allowing soothing sound frequencies to harmonize your energy and bring a deep sense of balance and ease.
From there, settle into a slow, meditative Yin Yoga practice led by Alanna Bone, RYT 300. In this restful session, each pose is held for several minutes, giving your body permission to soften, stretch deeply, and invite quiet stillnessâthe perfect reset for a busy, giving soul.
After lunch, we shift inwardâgently, creatively, powerfully.
In this session, youâll be guided through Neurographic Art, a transformative drawing practice that helps rewire limiting thought patterns and unlock new possibilities in the brain through the science of neuroplasticity.
Using flowing lines, shapes, and mindful intention, youâll turn subconscious tension into visible transformationâliterally reshaping the way your brain connects thoughts, beliefs, and emotions. No artistic skill is neededâjust openness and curiosity.
This is where inner change begins to take shapeâon paper and in you.

Stuck: You're afraid change wonât workâor wonât last.
Shift: With simple, science-backed tools and daily rituals rooted in neuroplasticity, youâll leave with practices that help incorporate change into your daily routineâmaking transformation not just possible, but sustainable.
Stuck: You believe that you have to earn rest and space.
Shift: Through intentional rest, spaciousness, and somatic permission work, youâll experience rest as a right, not a rewardâreturning home with a felt sense of worthiness and renewal.
Stuck: You're disconnected from your desires.
Shift: Through ritual, intuitive practices, and creative exploration, you'll reconnect with what lights you upâso you can begin building a life that truly feels like your own.
Itâs not youâitâs the wiring. Discover how to shift your inner circuitry and reclaim the life you were designed for.
