Gratitude Bath with Sound with Janet DeHart and Callie Stolz
Wednesday, November 25th 7:00-8:15pm

With winter approaching and dark hours extending we begin our own organic process of hibernation. We invite you to integrate these shifts

with us in an evening of sonic bathing. Music and sound has long been considered a method of cleansing and resetting homeostasis. From ancient Tibetan practices to modern scientific studies, the health benefits of sound frequency technologies is widely accepted.

The session will be led by two healing practitioners, Callie Stolz and Janet DeHart both trained in the use of various instruments — gongs, chimes, tuning forks, singing bowls — to facilitate meditation, relaxation and, ultimately, healing.

Set up a personal zone for yourself to cocoon or nest in for the hour; may include: mat, onesie, cozy socks, eye mask and a personal significant item. You can sit, lay down, curl up — create a comfortable space so you can focus on staying present with the sounds and vibrations. We also encourage you to be hydrated. Sound waves carry on water, and the more hydrated you are, the more likely the frequencies will have a penetrating effect.

Investment: $20 Early Bird Rate through 11/18; then $25 in studio, and $18 LIVE stream (sorry, class packages do NOT apply)

The in-studio experience is limited to 8 people while the virtual in-home option is unlimited. If you want to save your spot in the studio register today! You can call Santosha at (406)570-2477 or CLICK HERE.

Full Moon Women’s Circle
Monday, November 30th 7:30-9:00pm

“Each time women gather in circle with one another, the world heals a little more” -Unknown

Throughout history, women have gathered in moon circles to recognize our interconnectedness, share feminine wisdom, remember our soul’s desires and restore a sense of inner well being. In the midst of this time of challenge, awakening and at times what may feel like a chaotic world, our intention is to offer a safe and sacred space for women of all ages to gather for ritual, movement, breath, song or chant, intention setting and sharing. There is something so powerful when women come together to support each other on their journey. We are healed, we are nurtured, and we feel comforted and understood. This full moon can give us the opportunity to connect with the grounding energies of the earth and cosmos as well as to recognize and celebrate this awakening and the culmination of our intentions. Our invitation is for you to join us. Ruthi Solari, an awesome and inspiring women with years of experience leading women’s circles, will be leading our circle with assistance of Callie Stolz. Optional donation via Venmo @Santoshabigsky (no one will be turned away for lack of payment). The event is free to join, but please still sign up through our website so we can know how many to expect and space is limited (due to the need to be social distancing). We will be meeting at 326 Spruce Cone Dr., please come around the right side of the house, through the gate to the fire pit in the backyard. Thanks!

Fall Community Cleanse
October 7th-20th
RESET, REPLENISH, RENEW!

It’s that time of year again. The seasons are starting to change and it’s almost time to assist our bodies in making those changes and setting ourselves up for a healthy winter season. Now, more than ever, it seems our best defense for our body is a strong immune system. In the summer heat builds up in the tissues of our body and begins to dry things out. As we move into cooler temperatures our body tends to produce excess mucous in order fight against that dryness. The excess mucous becomes a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses to take over. When we take the time to do a cleanse it allows ourselves the opportunity to flush the excess heat, mucous, and toxins that have built up in our bodies. The community cleanse utilizes the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda in order to help detoxify the body and reboot the digestive system, and going through the process with a community of others makes it all that much easier to get through it successfully. It is not a time of starvation or deprivation, we eat 3 (or 4) meals each day and take specific herbs to assist the process of releasing toxins. It is a systematic 2 week process that starts with preparing your body to go through the cleansing process (a 4 day pre-cleanse), doing the main cleanse (7 days), and then restoring your body to get back to eating your regular diet (a 3 day post cleanse). It is designed to be a 2 week cleanse, but it can be customized to the length of time that you are able to commit to. And on that same note, if this timing doesn’t work for you, please contact Callie to discuss other options.

Callie Stolz, C.A.S., P.K.S., Clinical Ayurvedic Specialist and Pancha Karma (cleansing) Specialist, will be leading this two week community cleanse. There will also be yoga detox classes offered in combination with the cleanse in order to assist in the process as well as additional support via zoom this fall for those participants near or far!

What it includes: digestive herbs (specific to your needs), 4 cleansing and rejuvenativing herbal formulas, 7 days worth of the Ayurvedic cleansing food, other recipes, a booklet of information on the step by step process, 2-3 optional meetings weekly and daily email support through the process. We will meet the week prior to distribute all the items needed for the cleanse and have a meeting about the details (if the designated time doesn’t work for you other arrangements can be made). All meetings will be possible to join via zoom.

Callie will be explaining more about the cleanse and how we work with some of the basic principles of Ayurveda during the Awareness Wednesday seminar on September 23rd at 5:45PM. If you would like to join via zoom, the link is https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85997294539?pwd=L3pVOHZZYVBPUVdFeXU4bDBsbFJHQT09 and the password is Cleanse. If you are interested in doing the cleanse and you haven’t done it before, it is important to come this seminar to learn more about it and these Ayurvedic principles, and to see if it would be a good fit for you. If you aren’t able to make it to the talk, but you have questions and would like to have a meeting to discuss the cleanse and get set up it will be an additional $75 fee.

Regular price (after September 23rd):

Repeat Cleansers $250; First Timers $275

Additional items also available (herbs, a tongue cleaner, dry body brush, etc.)

Breath Is Life Workshop with Daniel Kern and Chelsea Didier
Sunday, September 27th
3:00-5:00 pm

Join Daniel and Chelsea for a deep dive into breathwork and intuitive movement.

We breathe to live… and relax, release, energize, and evolve. Guided breathwork is the gateway to our unconscious realm, where stale patterns run deep and old emotions are stored. These dictate our present behavior and wellbeing. Through conscious breathing, we connect to this realm and clear all that does not serve us.

In this workshop, you’ll learn the building blocks of an optimized breathing pattern to carry you through our guided Journey and into the world beyond.

Consider that your health, emotions, mental capacity, and immune system rely primarily on the breath… and that the average Westerner uses just 30% of their lung capacity.

The workshop begins with a comprehensive intro. Then, we drop-in with a meditation inspired by Montana’s beloved wilderness. As the Journey gains momentum, we breathe to the tune of curious inquiry and move our bodies to the flow of an expansive musical soundscape. The workshop will close with a demonstration of everyday breathing methods to elevate your lifestyle.

Are you a first timer to breathwork? Amazing. There will be a wide range of experience levels in this workshop. We’ll give you the skills to self regulate the intensity of your Journey. You’ll decide how deep you allow the breath to take you.

About Daniel & Chelsea: Deep stabilizing breaths have been our saving grace as a couple. Thankfully, as trained Breathwork facilitators, appreciation for its power came naturally to our relationship. We love creating and co-guiding experiences that liberate humans to their full potential.

Investment: $40

Register in advance as space in limited. If it is full you can still register on the wait list and if there is enough interest, we may offer it again the following weekend. CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

Food and Spirit Workshop with Georgia Boley
Thursday, July 23rd 4:30-6:30pm

Would you like a new perspective on your relationship with food? Food & Spirit takes nutrition into the realm of “complete” nourishment through the Seven Systems of Health. Approaching nutrition in this way helps deepen your inner peace, connection to self and others, and brings balance. Join our workshop and experience a full-spectrum approach to your whole self!

The presenter, Georgia Boley, is a licensed registered dietitian (RD) and a Certified Food and Spirit Practitioner (CFSP). The Food & Spirit program founder is Dr. Deanna Minich, an affiliate of The Institute of Functional Medicine (IFM). Deanna’s Food and Spirit program helps us to “move beyond ensuring that the body has physical food for energy to live by taking us into the realm of food as spiritual sustenance – or food for the soul.”

Her approach addresses health in seven categories. These categories are color coded and weave in not just the physical aspects of health, but the many other factors such as sense of community, ability to love versus fear, intuition, and spiritual connection. With all of these aspects, she offers nutrition interventions as one of the ways to help create balance. Dr. Minich’s seven system approach stems from the ancient health practice of chakras.

Investment….$40

Limited to 8 people – register today to get your spot.

Sound Healing with Amy Raven and Callie Stolz
Sunday, February 23rd 6:30 – 7:45 pm

Why does sound have such an effect on the soul?

Why do millions gather together from around the world to hear music?

Why do we feel lighter after dancing until sunrise?

A song can bring us to time travel in the mind,

stir emotion, completely altering the state of being.

The power of sound to heal and transform can be traced to almost every culture and cosmology across time and history. Everything around us has an external frequency- sometimes ineffable and imperceptible, sometimes palpable and authenticating- oscillating across the spectrum of being from living to non-living and non-living to living. Sound effects can create an acceleration of an inward journey.

Time is suspended as we enter a world of sensation the brain rests into theta waves. Theta is the brain’s deepest repair state. Physical injuries can be healed, old emotional traumas released, and insights can be accessed, leaving us vibrantly alive.

Bring anything that will make you comfortable for the inner ward journey. Perhaps a pillow, an eye mask, crystals, intentions, a friend, and of course an open mind.

Investment: Early Bird Price is $20 until 2/16; after that it is $25

We recommend registering early, as there is a limited number of spaces available.

Ecstatic Dance with Amy Raven

Friday, February 21st 7:15-8:15 PM

Ecstatic dance is a movement practice featuring elements of experimentation, intuitive interpretation, and physical expression. Through a practice of movement and stillness, we create a balance of polarities. It’s not about being a “good” dancer, it’s about listening, releasing, and allowing your body to break through stuck energy. Moving the body activates the force within! Transcend through movement while you breathe, flow, shake, dance, sweat, and surrender. Allow euphoria to wash over you with the celebration of balance while you gather in the community to dance.
Investment: Early Bird $15 until February 14th, after February 14th the drop-in rate is $20

What is sound meditation? This phrase is very prominent these days, and most of us are simply
curious on how sound meditation can help us achieve focus, and re-engage our “true self”. If I were to point to a single phrase that encompasses the importance of sound in relation to the human psyche and personal well being … It would be this.

“If you want to find the secrets of the Universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and
vibration” -Nikola Tesla
We as humans are walking energy, vibrating at multiple frequencies. If we’re to break this idea down into the esoteric realm of Chakra meditation …. It is important to note the seven major Chakras and the Universal OM have their own individual frequencies/notes. The Chakras are an intricate energy system that communicates with our bodies glandular functions.
The importance of developing the Pranic Energy Body connection with Chakra balancing
involves initiating the subtle energy body via yoga and meditation. This can be accomplished
with sound meditation to help focus working with the specific Chakras and developing our subtle
energy bodies ability to “oscillate” with an external sound catalyst. This workshop is designed to
be accessible by all levels of yogic, and meditative pursuits and will cover these subjects.
• Sound meditation theory involving both esoteric and analytical approaches.
• Introduction to Himalayan Singing Bowls, how to “sing” a bowl, and proper evaluation of
potential Singing Bowl prior to purchase.
• Spinal Pranayamic breath via Shushumna visualization.
• Chakra energy point stimulation via visualization and “brushing / stirring” techniques.
• Chakra Bija Mantra toning, Mudra exercises, and Breath Awareness.
• Following these exercises I will perform a 1 hour Chakra sound meditation involving Tuvan
Throat Singing, Himalayan Singing Bowls and a Shruti Box. Students will have an
opportunity to either lay in Svasana, or sitting meditation to include optional Chakra
visualization, Mudra, and 3rd eye lock.
• All attendees with receive a choice of 4 different high resolution 1hr long ShaamaahS Chakra
meditations and “cheat sheet” with Chakra descriptions, Mudra, and Mantras.
• Students will leave this class with the ability to practice, and develop their own personal
meditation practice.
• For an audio preview of the sound meditation go to www.shaamaahs.com/music

Awareness Wednesday
Introduction to the POWER OF THE BEAUTIFUL STATE
January 15th 7:30-8:30pm

We are excited to say that the 2-day transformational POWER of THE BEAUTIFUL STATE two-day Course is coming back to Big Sky in the beginning of May. However, we couldn’t wait to share with you a few of our favorite take-aways from the course this past fall and give you a couple tools to begin practicing to help you access this “power of the beautiful state”. Jill Singer, Kallie Harrison and Callie Stolz will be offering an introduction of this workshop and some powerful tools to take into your day to day life.

POWER of THE BEAUTIFUL STATE is simply and profoundly an effective method to access Presence or Higher Intelligence for more authentic living, abundance and connection. It is A Consciousness Game Changer. Last fall, Elizabeth Scherwenka (from Marin) and Lea Flocchini (from Sun Valley, Idaho) offered this as a weekend course. We had such a great response to it and further interest that we are excited to have them back again this spring. This weekend course is designed for those who’ve been on a spiritual path for years, for those who have never meditated or tried but failed at meditation, and for those who have gotten entirely too busy to push the pause button. More than a meditation course, it is a revolutionary program, grounded in neuroscience and balanced beautifully with wisdom teachings, ancient processes and simple practices, that gently guides participants from stressful, divisive states to calm, connected states.

As always Awareness Wednesdays are free and open to the public, so come broaden your awareness!!

Embrace Your Feminine: Understanding and using your hormone cycle for productivity and creativity in home and work
with Dr. Carlye Luft December 18th 7:30-8:30pm

There is no question the “Feminine” now plays a powerful role in western culture. Yes, we can “have it all”. However, women are beginning to realize that “doing more” does not necessarily equate to efficiency and productivity. The activities and responsibilities of professional career work, taking care of family, and managing a household is beginning to take its toll on many American women. This makes me recall the advice given to me many times by my mentor and good friend, Coral Grant, which is to never confuse activity with accomplishment. Our “Do-it-all” and “do-more” nature has kept us from taking breaks, creating disease due to stress, and struggling with anxiety.

Join Dr. Carlye Luft, Naturopathic Physician, Mayan Shamanic Healer, to learn how to embrace your cyclical nature of femininity. Understand and use your female hormone cycle to your advantage to be more productive and creative at work while still having a strong presence in your family and not sacrificing self-care – by simply doing less when it is called for.

This workshop is inspired by the Mayan Shamanic and Metaphysical Teachings of my Master Teacher- Dr. Suzan Rossi; my good friend and mentor-Coral Grant, and the book “Do Less” by Kate Northrup.

As always, Awareness Wednesdays are free and open to anyone, so come on in and broaden your awareness!

Fall Community Cleanse
October 9th-22nd
RESET, REPLENISH, RENEW!

It’s that time of year again. The seasons are starting to change and it’s almost time to assist our bodies in making those changes and setting ourselves up for a healthy winter season. In the summer heat builds up in the tissues of our body and begins to dry things out. As we move into cooler temperatures our body tends to produce excess mucous in order fight against that dryness. The excess mucous becomes a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses to take over. When we take the time to do a cleanse it allows ourselves the opportunity to flush the excess heat, mucous, and toxins that have built up in our bodies. The community cleanse utilizes the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda in order to help detoxify the body and reboot the digestive system, and going through the process with a community of others makes it all that much easier to get through it successfully. It is not a time of starvation or deprivation, we eat 3 (or 4) meals each day and take specific herbs to assist the process of releasing toxins. It is a systematic 2 week process that starts with preparing your body to go through the cleansing process (a 4 day pre-cleanse), doing the main cleanse (7 days), and then restoring your body to get back to eating your regular diet (a 3 day post cleanse). It is designed to be a 2 week cleanse, but it can be customized to the length of time that you are able to commit to. And on that same note, if this timing doesn’t work for you, please contact Callie to discuss other options.

What it includes: digestive herbs (specific to your needs), 4 cleansing and rejuvenativing herbal formulas, 7 days worth of the Ayurvedic cleansing food, other recipes, a booklet of information on the step by step process, 3 meetings and daily email support through the process. We will meet the week prior to distribute all the items needed for the cleanse and have a meeting about the details (if the designated time doesn’t work for you other arrangements can be made).

Callie will be explaining more about the cleanse and how we work with some of the basic principles of Ayurveda during the Awareness Wednesday seminar on September 18th at 7:00. If you are interested in doing the cleanse and you haven’t done it before, it is important to come this seminar to learn more about it and these Ayurvedic principles, and to see if it would be a good fit for you. If you aren’t able to make it to the talk, but you have questions and would like to have a meeting to discuss the cleanse and get set up it will be an additional $75 fee.

Regular price (after September 18th):

Repeat Cleansers $250; First Timers $275

Additional items also available (herbs, a tongue cleaner, dry body brush, etc.)

Nature’s Canvas Mandala Yoga Hike with Tara Eschenroeder

Why does sound have such an effect on the soul? Why do millions gather together from around the world to hear music? Why do we feel lighter after dancing until sunrise? A song can bring us to time travel in the mind, stir emotion, completely altering the state of being.
Everything around us has an external frequency- sometimes ineffable and imperceptible, sometimes palpable and authenticating- oscillating across the spectrum of being from living to non-living
and non-living to living. Sound effects can create an acceleration of an inward journey.

Time suspended as we enter a world of sensation the brain rests into theta waves. Theta is the brains deepest repair state. Physical injuries can be healed old emotional traumas released, insights can be accessed, leaving us vibrantly alive.

Saturday, February 9th 7:00-8:00pm

It was so awesome to have him here that he is coming back one more time to bring back his soothing vibrations and add a short breathwork component in the beginning to allow you to drop even deeper into this meditative state.

We as humans are walking energy, vibrating at multiple frequencies. If we’re to break this idea down into the esoteric realm of Chakra meditation …. It is important to note the seven major Chakras and the Universal OM have their own individual frequencies/notes. The Chakras are an intricate energy system that communicates with our bodies glandular functions.

This sound meditation I’ve developed uses esoteric “drone” instruments in a specific tuning that is relative to natural ratios that are seen within the natural world, our physiology, our solar system and ancient cultural paradigms. IE: Fibonacci, Phi, and Pythagorean theorem. These natural ratios are incorporated with Tuvan/Kargyraa throat singing, matched octave singing bowls per each Chakra frequency, and a Shruti Box. This is performed solo and in unison to create a oscillation catalyst that allows for a phenomenon called “Sympathetic Resonance”. Each instrument used in this meditation when combined is something that when experienced is very unique and quite powerful at each progressive level of energy body development.

The importance of developing the Pranic Energy Body connection with Chakra balancing involves initiating the subtle energy body via yoga and meditation. This can be accomplished with sound meditation to help focus working with the specific Chakras and developing our subtle energy bodies ability to “oscillate” with an external sound catalyst. The presentation of this catalyst is the sound meditation that will be performed

The goal of these sound meditations is to simply perform and provide a meditation that has the potential to relax, improve health, explore inwards and reach the true “teacher” within all of us. Space is limited for this amazing experience- in order to hold your spot give us a call at (406)993-2510 or register online by clicking here and going to the workshops tab.

Technology-Enhanced Mindfulness w/ Jay Sanguinetti

Stimulating your brain with Light and Sound to boost your Meditation practice Sunday, January 27th, 1:00-2:30p.m.

The workshop will discuss using noninvasive brain stimulation to enhance meditation practice. We will focus on two relatively new modalities for brain stimulation: ultrasound and light. Part one will be a demo of how low-intensity ultrasound can accelerate meditation practice. We will run through an ultrasound + meditation protocol so the audience can get a sense of what the total setup looks like. (We call it SEM – sonication enhanced mindfulness). In the second part of the workshop, Jay will introduce another type of brain stimulation system that uses near-infrared light (via low power LEDs) to enhance brain function during meditation. Participants will get a chance to try low-level light stimulation while they meditate and will have an opportunity to discuss their phenomenological experience at the end. Space will be limited to 15 people, so register today! You can register by calling Santosha at (406)993-2510 or book online by clicking here and going to the workshops page.

Fall Community Cleanse
October 3rd-16th
RESET, REPLENISH, RENEW!

It’s that time of year again. The seasons are starting to change and it’s almost time to assist our bodies in making those changes and setting ourselves up for a healthy winter season. In the summer heat builds up in the tissues of our body and begins to dry things out. As we move into cooler temperatures our body tends to produce excess mucous in order fight against that dryness. The excess mucous becomes a breeding ground for bacteria and viruses to take over. When we take the time to do a cleanse it allows ourselves the opportunity to flush the excess heat, mucous, and toxins that have built up in our bodies. The community cleanse utilizes the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda in order to help detoxify the body and reboot the digestive system, and going through the process with a community of others makes it all that much easier to get through it successfully. It is not a time of starvation or deprivation, we eat 3 (or 4) meals each day and take specific herbs to assist the process of releasing toxins. It is a systematic 2 week process that starts with preparing your body to go through the cleansing process (a 4 day pre-cleanse), doing the main cleanse (7 days), and then restoring your body to get back to eating your regular diet (a 3 day post cleanse). It is designed to be a 2 week cleanse, but it can be customized to the length of time that you are able to commit to. And on that same note, if this timing doesn’t work for you, please contact Callie to discuss other options.

Callie will be explaining more about the cleanse and how we work with some of the basic principles of Ayurveda during the Awareness Wednesday seminar on September 19th at 7:30. If you are interested in doing the cleanse and you haven’t done it before, it is important to come this seminar to learn more about it and these Ayurvedic principles, and to see if it would be a good fit for you. If you aren’t able to make it to the talk, but you have questions and would like to have a meeting to discuss the cleanse and get set up it will be an additional $75 fee.

Regular price (after September 19th):

Repeat Cleansers $250; First Timers $275

Additional items also available (herbs, a tongue cleaner, dry body brush, etc.)

From Acne to Aging, Skin Care for all ages
with Amy Woodger L.E.

Microdermabrasion; what is it, why do I want it, what will it do? Live demonstration
The ABC’s of a daily skin care routine; keeping it simple
Schedule a free skin analysis
Q&A; how can I help you?

Did you know? Sebum (the medical term for skin’s oil) is an essential part of healthy, youthful looking skin. Anyone who suffers from oily skin and acne knows that excess sebum can be a real problem. When follicles become clogged with sebum and dead skin cells, bacteria grows and causes acne breakouts. Excess sebum is a problem, but it does play an important role in keeping your skin supple and healthy.

The acid mantle is partially comprised of sebum and is your body’s first line of defense against disease. This very fine, slightly acidic film on the surface of the skin acts as a barrier, keeping out viruses, bacteria and other potential contaminates that might penetrate the skin. Sebum coating the surface of the skin plays another very important function: slowing down the evaporation of water, also known as trans epidermal water loss. Protecting and repairing our skin goes far beyond vanity-healthy skin is an integral component of our overall wellness. Please join Amy to learn more about keeping your skin healthy at every age.

As always awareness Wednesdays are free and open to the public. So come broaden your awareness!

Yoga for Cyclists (Athletes)
Friday, September 7th
6:00-7:30pm

We tend to play hard in the mountains. Cycling is an awesome full-body workout, that is a great tool for losing weight, staying healthy, and keeping in peak physical shape. But at the same time, the repetitive motion and strain can leave the body sore, tight, and achy, which can limit your muscle recovery and stamina, and make you prone to injury. Rejuvenate the body, and take your cycling to the next level by finding balance with a regular yoga practice!

In this workshop, yoga and cycling enthusiast, Tara (Becky) Eschenroeder, will cover the benefits of incorporating a dedicated yoga practice into your weekly cycling training program. The practice will start with a brief discussion/intro, followed by a yoga practice, classwork, and discussion including a specific sequence purposefully designed to balance the body and mind of hard-core cyclers! This practice is certain to loosen all those tight spots, improve your breathing, and keep you peddling hard!
Investment: Early Bird $25 until August 24th, after August 24th $30

Finding Contentment Within
Sunday, September 9th
4:00-7:00pm

How much time do you spend moving towards where you want to be versus being content with where you are? Where can you create space on your life? What would that space allow you to let in? What do you cling to (mentally/physically)? How could letting go of this allow you to let yourself live more fully and deeply?

Explore these questions and perhaps begin to work towards answers as you join Tara (Becky) for three hours of exploring the philosophy behind Santosha, the second of the five Niyamas. Navigate towards the contentment that exists within (no matter what life may have to offer) as we partake in journaling and discussion and flow through a Vinyasa practice. This will be followed by various practices that encourage finding that place of true acceptance and contentment, including progressive relaxation, visualization, and yoga nidra.
Investment: Early Bird $50 until August 24th, after August 24th $60

Monday Evenings Jan. 8th-Feb.19th 6:30-8:30pm

Do you want great health and more vitality in 2018? We invite you to dive deep into exploring, balancing and healing your energetic body through your five senses. Using music, vibration, aromatherapy, breathwork, meditation, movement, color contemplation, and painting, Callie and Jackie will design the time and space for you to cleanse and balance your chakras–or energy fields.

You will tap into the essence of a different chakra each week; starting with the root in week one and culminating at the crown in week seven. By tuning into these different chakras, you will learn where your energy is blocked, deficient or in excess. This empowering self awareness allows you to have more balance and flow in your everyday life. While the first half of each session takes you on a personal inward journey, the second half invites you to openly express yourself with color on canvas.

Each session begins with a teaching and guided meditation on that session’s chakra and connects you with the essence of that energetic center. Gentle movement will get your body in the flow before you find your seat at your easel and tap into your creativity.

Space is limited for this transformative, fun and soulful experience. So go ahead make the commitment to raise your vibration and join us on this journey!

Awareness Wednesday Ancient Wisdom for Everyday Wellness with Callie Stolz

January 25th, 6:30 to 7:30pm

Do you feel like you need to make a shift? To change something in your daily routine in order to feel more balanced and or just feel better in your body? Alberto Villoldo, Ph.D., medical anthropologist and teacher of the healing practices of shamanism, says, “One spirit medicine opens the doors to the invisible matrix of wisdom where everything is intertwined, where every thought we have impacts every cell in our body and every molecule in the cosmos.” Dr. Marc Halpern, Ayurvedic teacher and practitioner, says, ” Where there is harmony there is health and where there is disharmony there is dis-ease. Ayurveda is the science of understanding how to bring one back to their individual state of harmony or balance.” Callie has seen a lot of overlap in these two different ancient healing modalities and is excited to share with you some of the gems she has stepped away with in her studies with both of these amazing teachers. Although the middle of the winter is sometimes not the best time to embark on a full cleanse or a detox. There are ways in which we can shift what we are eating and when we are eating it to shift our metabolism, as well as some specific foods and supplements to help to refresh us and help us simply feel better in our bodies.

All Awareness Wednesdays, are free and open to the public. Come, broaden your awareness!

It’s likely that you, or someone close to you, are struggling with one or more hormone related symptoms such as PMS, hot flashes, low libido, fatigue and brain fog.

Perhaps you have been doing well for yourself but are curious as to what to expect hormonally as you age. Well, if that’s the case then this talk is for you! We will discuss the most common hormone related conditions people suffer from, their common causes, as well as simple but effective things you can do on your own to stay hormonally healthy!

Creative Writing Circle led by Liz McRae

Wednesday, February 22nd at 6:00-7:30 p.m.

We all have a story to tell.

Everyone’s life is made up of a million small moments, memories and stories. Think about them – crazy Aunt Sally’s wedding toast, skinny-dipping in the ocean, riding a horse, meeting someone you love for the first time. This creativity circle will focus on writing down your stories in short 5-10 minute sessions and then sharing what you write. This practice is not about proving(or not) that you are the next Ernest Hemingway somehow misguided into being a ski bum here in Big Sky, MT. This practice is about revealing yourself to yourself and telling your stories to a community of people who are doing the same. It may feel scary to think about reading aloud your writing, but storytelling is something humans have done for thousands of years and, well, it feels good to express this part of ourselves. Don’t take yourself so seriously.

Liz McRae took a couple of amazing writing classes with a Bozeman-based writer, Molly May (you should too! www.mollycaromay.com), sold her business and is now interested in creating an outlet for storytelling here in Big Sky. Bring a journal you love and a pen that writes well and tell your stories. Dare to come!

Foam Rolling and Fascia Release Workshop with Meg Lattanzio Sunday, May 21st 2:00-4:30pm

Do you want to move better? Recover faster? Perform better and have less pain? Self-Myofascial Release is an extraordinary tool to help you achieve these results. Using foam rollers, lacrosse/tennis balls and gentle warm up poses, Meg guides you through the basics of deep tissue release. The benefits are astounding: increases blood flow, improves muscular range of motion, reduces muscle soreness, maintains normal functional muscular length and encourages movement of your lymph. Wear comfortable clothing and drink plenty of water prior. This workshop is suitable for anyone and everyone!

After attending Bikram Yoga training in 2001, Meg opened one of Montana’s first hot yoga studios. Since being director and owner, she has traveled extensively to Australia, Hawaiian Islands and the east coast as a guest teacher where she has facilitated in house teacher training seminars and led workshops. Meg has had the privilege to study and practice with Diane Ducharme, Craig Villani, Esak Garcia and Mary Jarvis. With classic hot yoga as her foundation, Meg is also very much inspired by Eric Schiffmann, Dharma Mittra and Tony Sanchez. When not teaching hot yoga, her class tends to be a fusion of all her teacher’s golden nuggets where she teaches with integrity, intention and intuition. Recently, Meg has been fired up about fascia release techniques. After 17 years of practicing yoga, Meg now almost always includes these techniques along side her personal time on the mat. When not guiding a class, she is spending time with family and scheming ways to return to the sun, sand and salt.

108 Sun Salutations to Celebrate the Summer Solstice

Tuesday, June 20th at 9:00 am in the Town Center

This will be a collaborative effort between Yoga Stone and Santosha this year bringing together our entire yoga community. It will be held in Town Center Park near or on the stage. A yoga tradition is to do 108 sun salutations (Surya Namaskar A) to pay respects and surrender to the cycles of the universe, as we mark the end a season and the beginning of new phase at the Summer Solstice. As well as being an incredible mental and physical detox, celebrating this change together is a memorable experience that will leave your yoga practice changed. These salutations will enable you to appreciate your inner fire (agni), elevate your mental and physical capacity, and expand your own self expectations. As we move strongly and fluidly together, we will build and believe in our inner brilliance, while creating a favorable condition for meditation. Whether this number has any significance to you, or you just want a new mental and physical challenge, come and join us for a collective celebration of summer, yoga and our community. You will leave feeling strong, confident and liberated with a fresh summer glow. The event is free and open to everyone, with the option of a donation towards the BSCO (Big Sky Community Organization). We will start at 9am and go until we are finished- approximately an hour and a half.

July 2017

Community Yoga for a Cause Mondays (July through Labor Day) 11:00-Noon

This will be a donation based all levels yoga class with all proceeds going to an ALS organization called Team Gleason. Classes will be held in Town Center (stage or lawn depending upon the weather and whether people would like sun or shade). If it is cold or stormy class will be held at Santosha.

Over the past few summers we have offered community yoga classes on the lawn for a different benefit for something in our community each month. When I was thinking about what organization would make sense to support this summer, it seemed obvious that it would be best to support the Robin family anyway we could through our practice. Mark and Jackie have always been such great supporters of Santosha, coming to class regularly over the years as well as providing their team at the Moose with classes at Santosha ever since we opened our doors. In this way and so many other ways the Robins have been such an awesome part of our community. It has been really beautiful to see so much support and an outpouring of love towards Mark and Jackie and their family in their time of need. I am excited and honored to teach this weekly donation based class to give back to a cause they are behind. Team Gleason focuses on technical support for People with ALS (PALS) and their families. The Robin family along with many other families suffering from ALS have been supported through this great grassroots organization. So after speaking with them about the different organizations that helps to create awareness around this disease and support people through the process, it seemed like the natural choice.

These classes will begin July 3rd and go through September 4th. Hope to see you on the lawn!

The Yoga of Sound

Saturday, July 8th 9:00-11:00 am

This practice will help you establish a joyful home practice of chanting and singing as we experience the true connection between sound and creation.

Wednesday, July 19th 7:00-9:00 pm

How do I use mantra as meditation? What if I already know a lot about mantras?

For those with an extensive mantra practice or those brand new to chanting, this workshop will teach you the precise resonance and pronunciation of the sanskrit letters to further deepen or begin a dedicated mantra yoga practice. Joanna will guide you through several different mantras that will help support you in transforming all areas of of your life, including mantras for abundance, relationships, health and changing the old, negative mental chatter. Change your mind, change your life! (Bring if a mala if you have one, if not, there will be beautiful malas from India for sale)

Saturday, July 29th 9:00-11:00 am
Sanskrit as the body of sound. Mantra Paru?a and the Chakras

Did you know that the 50 sanskrit characters correlate to the 50 petals of the chakras?

Come and learn that not only do the sounds of sanskrit reflect the chakras, but also represent the primary energies of creation, the 50 marma points in the body and more!

Explore this language of creation by learning the 5 mouth placements that will help you pronounce any sanskrit word in the future. Diving further into the study and practice of sanskrit will help you deepen your experience with mantra and yoga!

Investment: $20 per class or $50 for the series of 3

Joanna has been traveling and teaching yoga since 2003. First starting her yoga career here in Bozeman at Beyond Boundaries, she has since moved and help establish yoga communities on Kaua’i, Hawai’i and Bologna, Italy. Joanna has traveled to China and India to study and deepen her own personal practice of qi gong and yoga so that she can continue to expand her offerings for her students. Most recently, Joanna took part in the very first yoga teacher training based entirely on the transformational power of sound (including Sanskrit, mantra, Indian classical vocal meditation, and non-violent communication for everyday life). She is coming here to Montana to share her passion for this fundamental yoga practice that opens up the inner doorway to true and lasting freedom and bliss. Using the power of our own voice to access these inherent energies of the Universe, we will explore the creative language of sanskrit together and practice mantra yoga together to help establish a daily practice that can truly help transform your life on many levels.

Deepak Chopra’s Course on Chakras

Saturday, February 6th 11-1pm

unnamed Consciousness transforms into matter in our bodies located at our 7 chakras. Chakras are part of the subtle body and control the transformation of subtle energies from higher dimensions into physical energy. There are many Chakras, located at the junction points of the energy channels (nadis) of the subtle body.The 7 Chakras located along the spine are considered to be the most important. Chakra means “wheel”, they constantly spin the world into existence. When the Chakras are blocked or clouded, transformation is blocked, creating disharmony and suffering in our life. When the Chakras are clear and “awakened” the mind and body become balanced and we gain full access to higher realms of existence.

During this class, we will explore:

– What causes blocks in each Chakra?
– How to open/enliven each Chakra to live a happier, more balanced life
– Exercises to open each Chakra through movement and sound toning
– Soothing Guided Visualization meditation

Awareness Wednesday – Foundations of Mind-Body Nutrition with Heather McDonnell

March 16th 7-8:00pm

“What we eat is only half of the story of good nutrition. The other half is who we are as eaters.” – Marc David, Founder of the Institute for the Psychology of Eating

Heather McDonnell

Who are YOU as an eater? Do you fear food? Think dietary fat will make you fat? Do you eat in a hurry, while stressed out, distracted, or with erratic timing? Did you know that the same switch in the brain that turns on the stress response – the sympathetic nervous system – turns off digestion, assimilation and slows down thermic efficiency? The same switch in the brain that turns on the relaxation response – the parasympathetic nervous system – turns on full healthy digestive and calorie burning power. You could eat the healthiest food in the universe, but if it’s eaten in any degree of stress, you have literally decreased the nutritional value of your meal. I n this talk, I will introduce to you the fundamentals of Mind Body Nutrition. Mind Body Nutrition reveals how stress physiology, the relaxation response, breathing, awareness, pleasure, meal timing and much more profoundly influence digestion and calorie burning. Le arn how to slow down, optimize meal timing, cultivate awareness in your eating experience, leave the table feeling satisfied and nourished, and in turn allow your body to calorie burn, digest and assimilate nutrients optimally.

As always, Awareness Wednesdays are free and open to anyone, so come on in and expand your awareness!

Master Class & Workshop with Becky Eschenroeder

Strength to Surrender with Becky Eschenroeder

Friday, September 23rd 6:00-7:30pm

Finding your “edge” in yoga requires listening to not only your body, but also to your heart and your mind; trusting that inner guide that comes from within. Mindfully toeing the lines of our “limits” is what makes us stronger. Learn how to invite challenges into your life and turn them into opportunities though the use of your own instincts, knowledge, and ability to trust and surrender.
Join Becky and Margo on a journey of discovering your “inner guide” that leads you to that internal place of purity and trust that is always there no matter what life may look like on the “outside.” We will touch on the importance of needing to let go in order for transformation to occur and on finding courage to do so. It takes strength to let go and trust, and we will work towards that as we explore the meaning behind the Niyama, Ishvara Pranidhana.
This journey inward will include a combination of an intense physical practice with thought provoking information,meditation, and long savasana that will allow the students to realize and connect with the importance of working as hard as they can but knowing when it is okay to stop, let go, and know it is okay to surrender (that it is even necessary sometimes).
Please dress comfortably and bring a mat, a journal and a pen. It’s also best to avoid eating a heavy meal 60 minutes prior to this workshop.
Investment: Early Bird~ $20 after 9/16~ $25
To register go to our Class Schedule page and Sign up!

Wildly Free to Be with Becky Eschenroeder

Sunday, September 25th 2:00-5:00pm

As we navigate into the 3rd and 4th Chakra (power center and heart), we will incorporate the idea of trusting and letting go (Ishvara Pranidhana). This exploration includes discussion, journaling, asana practice and an in depth look into the core of your being…working from the inside out.
Prepare to embark on this journey as you join Becky for three hours of exploring the philosophy behind Manipura, the third of the five Chakras; Anahata, the fourth of the five Chakras; and Ishvarah Pranidhana, the fifth of the five Niyamas.

Awareness Wednesday – Reclaim Your Health: The Power of the Mind to Heal the Body with Angela Marie Patnode

October 19th from 7pm to 8:15pm

Angela Marie Patnode, Transformational Coach and Spiritual Teacher, will share how she recovered from a 2 year undiagnosed virus, EMF (electromagnetic) sensitivity, and chronic hip and back pain. She followed the route of western medicine and meditation, but found out there’s a very specific reason these things happened and that it’s possible to go to the root of what’s creating the symptoms instead of chasing the symptoms.

What Angela learned can heal such conditions as Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Chronic Pain, Chemical, Food and Mold Sensitivities, Lyme Disease, Electric Hypersensitivity Syndrome, Anxiety, PTSD, Inflammatory Conditions and more.

The chemicals you can create just by what you think, feel and how you behave, are 100 times stronger than any pharmaceutical you can take. Everything you need to heal is already in your body!

As always awareness Wednesdays and free and open to the public, please come, expand your awareness!

Alchemy of Alignment with Anna Ourusoff

Sunday November 20th 10:00am-12:30pm and 2-4:30pm

We will shift into new ways of stepping into aligning with our essential nature, trusting the zone of not knowing, which is where Magic actually happens. Using Universal principles of alignment, we gain the skill to trust with courage a new way of being aligned with ourselves, life, and each other. butterfly-and-ripples

Although the day is a mini retreat designed with two classes that fit together, you are welcome to come to either session. The morning will set the ground work for creating a context for the rest of our time together. Without a carefully crafted context, content can feel like it miss
es meaning and depth, and transformation or alchemy can be just short of happening. What is often referred to as the art of “setting an intention” is the alchemist’s preparation of the magical shift that is imminent, and as close to us as our next breath.

Are you ready to let go and open to the magic?

Each session will have meditation, pranayama (breathing), and mostly asana that practices being willing to undergo deep transformation, and step out in a new human experience.

Investment: Individual sessions are $45 or $80 for both- Click here to Register and go to the workshops tab.

Anna has been teaching yoga for thirty years and is an Anusara certified instructor. She loves to share her passion for exploring and experiencing the truth of who we are through the practice of yoga which puts us in touch with being the musicians of our own body instruments.

Let Go to Let Live with Becky Eschenroeder

Saturday, December 3rd 4:00-7:00pm

Join Becky on a journey of discovering your “inner guide” that leads you to that internal place of purity and trust that is always there no matter what life may look like on the “outside.” We will touch on the importance of needing to let go in order for transformation to occur and on finding courage to do so. It takes strength to let go and trust, and we will work towards that as we explore the meaning behind the Niyama, Ishvara Pranidhana.

This journey inward will include a combination of an intense physical practice with thought provoking information, journaling, discussion, meditation, and long savasana that will allow the students to realize and connect with the importance of working as hard as they can but knowing when it is okay to stop, let go, and know it is okay to surrender (that it is even necessary sometimes).

Please dress comfortably and bring a mat, a journal and a pen. It’s also best to avoid eating a heavy meal 60 minutes prior to this workshop

Most teachers know the asana and the message behind yoga. Becky Eschenroeder lives it. When you practice with Becky, you get more than a teacher on the mat; you gain guidance for your daily life. Becky’s credentials, ERYT200/RYT500/RCYT, highlight her teaching capabilities. Beloved by her hometown in Richmond, VA, Becky has transformed countless lives through her teaching. Expanding beyond the river-city streets, she is on the road to share her gift with you and your community. Take advantage of this unique chance to practice with Becky Eschenroeder and observe how her presence continues to impact your life even when her mat is gone.
