Back To Self: Starting fresh this fall
For many of us, September means BTS: back to school. After the past year and a half, starting to find our way back to our normal routines can feel exciting, nerve-wracking, relieving, and overwhelming all at the same time. As students, teachers, and school staff prepare to head back to school both online and in-person, why not try developing a BTS routine of your own and getting back to self. Not sure where to begin (or resume) your self-care journey? In addition to a selection of crystals, candles, and handmade soaps available to you in The Aura Store, we have a fresh fall schedule and three special events that may just be the perfect place to start.

What are Speciality Class Sundays, you may ask? Sunday mornings on the member schedule will be reserved for speciality classes led by some of your favourite instructors. This month, we’re excited to welcome
Tere with her Signature Slow & Dynamic Flow on Sunday, September 12th @ 10am
Tammye with Kundalini on Sunday, September 19th @ 10am
Kristine with Group Reiki on Sunday, September 26th @ 10am
Our Speciality Class Sundays are only a few of the very special things we have going on in the space this month. We’re also super excited to be able to share three extra special events with you all:
Healing Crystal Bowl Sound Bath & Meditation - Sunday, September 19th @ 7:00 pm
Imagine being immersed in beautiful sounds that are healing to your body, mind, and soul. In this class, you will rest comfortably and allow the vibrations of crystal bowls, a spirit drum, singing bowls, and other instruments to move through your mind and body offering awareness, insights, and healing wherever it is needed. This sound experience will bring synchronization and balance back to your body and energetic system. Time is suspended as you enter a world of vibration, sensation, and experience. We will close the session with time for journaling and quiet introspection of this unique experience.

One Day Retreat | Trusting Your Intuition & Inner Wisdom - Saturday, September 25th 10:00 am - 4:30 pm
It can be so easy to become disconnected from your inner knowing. Responsibility, work, life, world events … these are all elements of human-ness that can ‘take over' and make trusting yourself and those around you a daunting feat. This One-Day Retreat is an opportunity to Immerse yourself in practices that will help you access your intuition and tap into your inner wisdom. Strengthening your connection to yourself is step one in moving towards a life of trust, confidence, and forward momentum.
Cost: $79+HST until September 11th, $95+HST afterwards | Link to Register: https://www.wellnessliving.com/rs/catalog-view.html?id_sale=3&k_id=339179
90 Minute Parabola Flow Masterclass with Tere - Thursday, Sept. 30th @ 7:00 pm
This class has the intention to replicate the parabolas we see in everyday situations such as rainbows and architectural arches. It is based on my style Slow & Dynamic- with non-discrimination of pauses and holds- which essence is in the breath as the greatest guide to synchronize our movements and to raise our awareness and presence.
It contains a warm-up, four waves, a cooling down, and a Savasana. The last two waves are repetitions of the second: the third wave for moving freely and dynamically, and the fourth wave to integrate additions and complexities.
