Palestra Spa & Studio

If you missed Sunday's workshop, we wrote up the science behind why it works so well: acupuncture doesn't just feel relaxing, it measurably shifts your nervous system into a calmer state — and pairing it with restorative yoga's stillness lets both practices reinforce each other instead of competing.

LINK IN BIO for the full blog, and a heads up that this workshop repeats November 15th.

Today's the day — "Restorative Yoga with Acupuncture Savasana" with Wendy Swanson begins at 2pm.

If this is your first time pairing yoga with acupuncture, this format is a gentle place to start. If you can't make it today, this workshop repeats November 15th.

This Sunday: "Restorative Yoga with Acupuncture Savasana" with Wendy Swanson — a licensed acupuncturist and yoga teacher who leads both halves of this experience herself.

You'll move through a restorative practice, then receive acupuncture during your final savasana, layering two calming inputs instead of scheduling them separately.

Sun, Sept 27, 2–4pm, $75. LINK IN BIO to reserve your spot.

Every January asks you to overhaul everything at once — and most of it doesn't survive February.

September quietly does it better. No resolutions, no pressure, just a real seasonal shift and a chance to pick one thing and actually stick with it.

We wrote a full blog on why this month works, and how to start small in a way that lasts. LINK IN BIO.

Wishing an easy fast and a meaningful Yom Kippur to everyone in our community observing today.

Today's the day — "Shake It Out!" with Jenn Shull starts at 1:30pm. If you're joining us, come with an open mind and comfortable clothes.

If you're not able to make it this time, we'll let you know when it comes around again.

Either way, we hope you find your own way to release what you're carrying this weekend. (limited availability — check for last-minute spots)

One workshop this weekend, and Sound Bath tonight is a gentle place to land before it. 6–7pm, candlelight, no experience needed.

Come release what the week left behind. Reserve your spot.

We know "shaking medicine" sounds like it might be more folklore than science — so we wrote a full blog on the actual research behind it.

Turns out, there's real, peer-reviewed evidence that structured shaking exercises can reduce anxiety and support nervous system regulation.

Our Sept 19 workshop with Jenn Shull puts the research into practice, guided and in a small group.
