Classes

Sunday Meditation Sessions

Learn to meditate! We offer a free meditation class one Sunday per month from 10:30-11:30 AM. We will do some simple opening qigong, teach calm-abiding and tong-len meditation, and have a sitting/walking meditation session for approximately 30 minutes. If you have never learned to meditate and want to learn basic sitting meditation as well as the Tibetan Buddhist compassion practice tong-len, this is a great class for you. You can come once or make it a monthly routine. While we do not charge for this class, we ask that you make a donation for us to pass on to the Orgyen Khamdrolling Buddhist meditation center. Next session: Sunday, June 3, 2012. 

Resolve Peer-Led Support Group

Acupuncture Denver shares its healing sanctuary space with a local support group from Resolve, The National Infertility Association, every second Monday of the month from 6:00-8:00PM. This group is a wonderful way to connect with others who are facing the challenges of infertility. Since we are huge fans of Resolve as well as being part of their professional network, we are very pleased to be able to offer our space to this group! Please contact Heather at sharedmemories.ILA@gmail.com or 720.383.0557 before attending your first meeting. No charge.

Yoga Nidra 

Led by Andrea Briggs, RYT, this is an hour and fifteen minutes of deep guided relaxation. Get your pillow and blanket out and come join us for a class you won't be forgetting anytime soon. In Yoga Nidra, true relaxation is reached by turning inwards, away from outer experiences, to a place that’s between sleep and fully awake. This technique will take you beyond your waking senses, past the dream state, into the realm of deep sleep, all without ever falling asleep. Yoga Nidra is a positive way to tap into your intuitive and creative nature where a great amount of physical, mental, and spiritual healing can be done. Please bring warm, comfortable clothes, blanket, pillow and yoga mat. Sign up here.

What women have said about the class:

"Jane's class is the perfect time to come together with other women who are experiencing the similar struggles and do a low-impact, nurturing exercise to enliven your reproductive organs and your spirit. It is a wonderful way to spend a Tuesday evening, I highly recommend it." -SH

"We finally achieved pregnancy naturally after close to 2 years of trying. I'm almost 13 weeks and I feel great! Thank you for your support and guidance through your Fertile Ground class. Every Tuesday helped me relax and breathe again."

"I wanted to let you know I am pregnant. It's helped me a lot to meditate on the connection that runs between the heart and the uterus. You taught about this in the classes I attended there. Just wanted to let you know it's helping me stay connected to my pregnancy in this early phase when there are no visible signs."
