Awaken Your Pelvic Floor
Unlock your pelvis and spine to unlock your heart and your mind through the Divine Massage Technique, an innovative self-massage method created by licensed massage therapist & certified yoga teacher Elizabeth Scheer. By mobilizing your bones in specific, natural feeling ways, you learn to gently massage the inside of your joints. This unique approach stimulates the muscles from within, infusing the area with healing blood and oxygen. By engaging in this practice, you cultivate a deeper mind-body connection, fostering the creation of new neural pathways in the brain, which in turn facilitates habit change and enhances your overall well-being.
As the once rigid areas of your body begin to awaken, you'll notice a transformation not just physically, but energetically, emotionally, and mentally. This technique also works to alleviate pain by realigning the spine, releasing pent-up tension, and gradually relieving chronic discomfort. Over time, the Divine Massage Technique helps to restore balance within the body, promoting long-term relief from pain and encouraging a state of harmony and ease. When fully embraced, this awakening leads to a profound metamorphosis, allowing you to dissolve old patterns and step into a more evolved version of yourself.
Through the Divine Massage Technique, you embark on a journey of self-evolution, forging a deeper connection to your body, mind, and spirit.

In this workshop we will be exploring the balance between Masculine and Feminine energy through uncovering the 4 Elements within.

Finally we will bring all 4 elements together for a 30 minute guided meditation and sound bath to explore the healing space that these Sacred Elements share within the Heart.

After almost 20 years working with children as a classroom teacher and as a children's behavior therapist, Heidi has found the underlying deficit at the root of most of our children's challenges are related to processing, coping and self-regulating emotions and big feelings. by utilizing fun music and movement led yoga practices and learning yoga principles, children can become more self-sufficient in both understanding their emotions and regulating their behavior. she is so excited to share this beautiful tradition with children and teach parents how it can help families grow in a more mindful and loving direction. Heidi holds a B.S. in early childhood education, a M.S. in exceptional student education, is a board certified behavior analyst and a 200hr certified yoga teacher.
