Looking with New Eyes

Breema Workshop

Saturday March 22, 2025 10am-1pm

When body and mind are connected, we can access the essential part of ourselves that has been covered up by wrong education and misguided expectations. The Nine Principles of Harmony are a roadmap for experiencing life directly—free from expectations. Breema bodywork and Self-Breema exercises support us to experience these nurturing principles and discover new, more harmonious perspectives that make life truly satisfying.

Real Health in Body, Mind, and Feelings

Introduction to Breema classes (no charge)

Wednesdays April 2, 9 & 16, 7:00-8:30pm

When the mind and body are connected, when we're present, it’s like coming home—fear, anxiety, and tension are replaced by vitality and a profound feeling of harmony. We discover a part of us that’s untouched by the chaos of the world, and a way to access this balance and harmony in all our activities.

Breema Weekend Workshop

April 25-27, 2025

Life sometimes feels out of control. But there is always one step you can take towards balance—and it starts with connecting mind and body.
Challenging or destabilizing events often cause us to react with fear or hopelessness. But they could also remind us that we need a new way to relate to life. Breema and the Nine Principles of Harmony offers a new approach to life, enabling us to to move from insecurity towards stability, from confusion towards clarity. Come to all or part of this nurturing weekend of Breema. Friday evening is no charge.
