Lunar Prana Flow Restoring Yoga + Healing with CBD

Yoga Garden 184 East Street, Pittsboro , NC, United States

Join us for a nourishing, healing, and relaxing gentle yoga flow + restore class integrating locally sourced CBD salve application and optional CBD tea and/or tincture. This class takes us deeper into the subtle body following the map of the Koshas- layers of consciousness- , from physical body to breath, emotional, intuitive, and bliss bodies. We will begin in healing lunar namaskar and Pranams, connect with the breath and mental consciousness with pranayama and mantra, and rise into the subtle realms of ritual space in restorative yoga and meditation- enhanced by the stress reducing, anti-anxiety properties of hemp based CBD. Cannabidiol, or CBD, is derived from the hemp plant and has been employed for hundreds of years for its medicinal properties and was historically used as a sustainable textile and is one of the oldest recorded farmed and domesticated plants in human history. CBD in its therapeutic use can assist in a spectrum of healing benefit including pain management, treatment of PTSD, stress, and sleep loss or insomnia. Industrial hemp does not contain the psychoactive substance THC. This unique and intimate class offers 10 healing spaces and advance registration by Thursday, April 4 is required. $27

EMAIL?CFTA.tmatthews1@gmail.com for an audition packet. AUDITIONS taking place MONDAY!!! April 22nd 7 PM!! THE STORY⬇️⬇️⬇️ The Miss Firecracker Contest ? The place is the small Mississippi town of Brookhaven, the time a few days before the Fourth of July. Carnelle Scott (known locally as Miss Hot Tamale) is rehearsing furiously for the Miss Firecracker Contest...hoping that a victory will salvage her tarnished reputation and allow her to leave town in a blaze of glory. The unexpected arrival of her cousin Elain, a former Miss Firecracker winner, who has walked out on her rich but boring husband and her two small children, complicates matters a bit, as does the repeated threat of Elains eccentric brother, Delmount, recently released from a mental institution, to sell the family homestead and decamp for New Orleans. But, aided by a touchingly awkward seamstress named Popeye, who is hopelessly smitten by Delmount, and several other cheerfully nutty characters, Carnelle perseveres ...leading to a denouement of unparalleled hilarity, compassion and moving lyricism as all concerned finally escape their unhappy pasts and turn hopefully toward what must surely be a better future.
