SMHD Spring to Summer SESSION: Grow and Glow With Heart Centered Goals

Who Are You Now? Do you need a spark?
40 Days to a Lighter Brighter You
May 31st to July 5th

This transformative session of the Spiritual Mental Health Diet will take you on a bright and beautiful journey of self care and self discovery that will manifest in movement and progress toward 3 life goals that are important to you right now. We will use yoga philosophy, simple Ayurvedic healing techniques and practices for daily calm and focus. Through the collective group energy and the joy of living in presence as we tend the seeds of our future - we will bring personal meaning and purpose into high focus. Whether you want to bring more peace and joy into your life, learn to trust your intuition more, or jumpstart a new project, service or chapter in your life - this is the SMHD session for you.

Yoga is both a goal oriented practice and a path of present minded awareness where the journey is emphasized as the most important part of living. We need a balance of action and surrender, movement and stillness, push and rest in order to grow.

Growth is a natural state and as long as we are growing, we are truly living.

In the last 3 years, many of us have lost our sense of continuity, our patterns, habits and behaviors have been disrupted by covid, personal losses, lifestyle changes, financial challenges and health concerns. I personally have been through the hardest time in my life. I am here to walk alongside you as we forge ahead on the path that is always our right path - GROWTH. We seek the light like a plant pushing upward from the forest floor or crack in the city sidewalk.

What can you expect?

  • Weekly live group sessions with me and your group.

  • Weekly practices for mind body and spirit

  • Health tips and tools that will improve your energy, mood, stamina and focus.

  • Consistent support in manifesting your 3 main life goals of the moment.

  • A beautiful workbook for support and reflection

  • All sessions recorded for you to have into eternity

  • Optional in person Finale - Practice and Gather session!

  • 40 Days of building the kinds of habits that are life changing and life enhancing that build confidence and follow through and bring more love into all areas of your life through self love and care.

WHAT IT IS:

SMHD is really a "LIVE-IT" - it's about LIVING more peacefully, healthfully and joyfully. Like any good diet we take some things out and we add some things in. Through the wisdom practices we will weed out and release the limiting factors in body and mind, while we build a toolkit that will keep you connected to your natural brightest essence. HUMAN means - "light of the mind" so as we empty the mind of clutter we fill with light. Drawing mainly from Yoga and Ayurveda as well as soulful and healthful practices from other cultures, we will travel week by week through Mind, Body and Spirit. This course is rooted in actionable practical applications to decrease the stress responses in the body and mind which results in a healthier relationship with yourself and others. The program will culminate in creating your personalized daily practice (Sadhana) drawing on all that you have covered and experienced in the previous weeks, with Christine's guidance and the powerful energy of the group!

“In my experience, I have found SMHD to be a profound experience of expansion and growth in all ways. Christine creates a safe space in which to share thoughts, dive deep with questions and uses language that is easily digestible. In every SMHD that I attend, there is always another layer of philosophy to unpack in a new way that allows one to go deeper. The courses also build off of one another creating a deeper understanding of yoga philosophy and all its parts.” —Kimberly E.

"Christine really has changed my life. She has given me tools to center myself, relax and live a life full of happiness. There was a stark difference between when I started the program and when I ended the program. The practices Christine teaches are not only easy but they WORK. They have helped me to lead a more wholesome life full of inner peace and clarity. Whenever I'm feeling stressed out, I go back to our program and use some of the methods we used from it. It always does the trick." - Jessica B.

“I had been wanting to take Christine’s SMHD series for quite some time and Quarantine seemed like the perfect time to start. My SMHD experience exceeded all my expectations and has definitely improved my quality of life. For the first time, I was able to maintain a meditation practice, which has enabled me to calm my mind when I wake up in the middle of the night and get back to sleep quickly. It’s always been hard for me to take care of myself in ways that I deemed indulgences and SMHD has given me permission for the self care that I badly needed. The series also included ways to get in touch with our artistic sides through poetry, dance, and drawing which was such a pleasure and nourishing experience.” —Jennifer Y.

The Spiritual Mental Health Diet with Christine Burke Spring 2022: Making Peace With Time—Svadhyaya: using the yogic principle of self study to create a happier healthier relationship with time.

A 40-day program for a Lighter, brighter You.
with Christine Burke
2022 Spring Online Session

Wednesdays, July 7, 14, 21, & August 4, 18, 25th
7:00 to 8:30pm

This course (affectionately and for convenience called SMHD) is a seasonal course (usually offered each of the 4 seasons) of self care, community connection and yoga life philosophy. Each session has a particular theme woven into the season and allowing for a dive into bringing the yoga lifestyle and some Ayurvedic tips into your daily life - basically for more mindful, satisfying and beautiful living.

We meet weekly on zoom for the lesson of the week that I am offering, a guided meditation and breathwork, and sharing of activities and experience so we can support, encourage and grow together. Each SMHD session is different and some elements are repeated as they are essential components to this wellness offering. This is YOU time - to explore, uncover and relax into yourself and your life.

MAKING PEACE WITH TIME
Ritual, Reflection, Resilience and Radiance

We will explore our attitudes, conditioning and self talk that inhibit our ability to experience a true present for any length of time. We will honor and release aspects of the past that draw our precious life force away and focus on the wisdom we have attained. We will observe and understand our preoccupation with the future and worrying and replace the habit of worry with healthy action. We will create a new relationship with the present, past and future built on joyful rituals that bring more radiance and nourish our bodies, minds and spirits so we are more resilient.

You will receive a weekly video of practices for the week along with the recording of each week's session to re-watch or in case you have to miss a week.

Yoga Refuge: February

On the First Saturday of each month join Quinn Shuff and Reiki Master Kelly Wallace-Barnhill for an evening of deep release. Settle in with a gentle, non-sweaty restorative yoga practice designed for you to unknot your body, release tension, and become spacious. Then be guided into the dream-like state of Yoga Nidra where your questions and answers become illuminated and your intentions deeply planted. Reiki energy work and aromatherapy are offered during the practice. 

Wear loose comfy clothing and bring a journal to jot down your insights.

Cost: $25 until a week before the event and $30 thereafter. 
Sorry, no refunds within 48 hours and no drop-ins.
Space is capped at 14 participants so there’s enough time for everyone to receive a Reiki treatment.

Sign up available now for the February 1st and March 7th sessions. Click Here.  

Q&A

What exactly will we be doing?
We will be doing a few stretches and using lots of yoga props (pillows, blankets, and blocks) to rest comfortably in gentle poses on the ground.

What is Yoga Nidra?
It’s a guided meditation you do while lying on your back. You’ll follow Quinn's voice as we take a rotation of consciousness through your body, breathe deeply, and go on a visualization journey to plant your intention in your mind, body, and psyche. For more information, click here

What is Reiki energy work?
Reiki is a pure energy that flows from the hands of an attuned provider into your body. By hovering our hands over you or gently placing them on your body (with your permission), the energy naturally flows where it’s most needed. Some people report feeling warmth or a pleasant tingling sensation, while others might not feel a thing. Reiki will add to your experience of relaxation, peace, and healing.

What should I bring?
A yoga mat if you’ve got one (we have some to loan) and a journal, if you’re the note taking or journaling type. Sometimes epiphanies happen in the middle of a practice like this, so if you want to capture it…

Yoga Refuge: December

First Saturday of each month with Kelly and Quinn.

Join Quinn Shuff and Reiki Master Kelly Wallace-Barnhill for an evening of deep release. Settle in with gentle, non-sweaty practice designed for you to unknot your body, release tensions, and become spacious. Then be guided into the dream-like state of Yoga Nidra where your questions and answers become illuminated and your intentions deeply planted. Reiki energy work and aromatherapy offered.

Wear loose comfy clothing and bring a journal to jot down your insights.

Cost: $25 until 11/30 and $30 thereafter. Sorry, no refunds within 48 hours of event and no drop-ins.

Click here to register.

Space is capped at 14 participants so everyone receives at least a five-minute Reiki treatment from Kelly or Quinn.

Q&A

What exactly will we be doing?
We will be doing a few stretches and using lots of yoga props (pillows, blankets, and blocks) to rest comfortably in various gentle poses on the ground.

What is Yoga Nidra?
It's a guided meditation you do while lying comfortably on your back. You'll follow my voice as we take a rotation of consciousness through your body, breathe deeply, and go on a visualization journey to plant your intention in your own mind, body, and psyche.

What is Reiki energy work?
Reiki is a pure energy that flows from the hands of an attuned provider into your body. By hovering my hands over you or gently placing them on your body (with your permission), the energy naturally flows where it's most needed. Some people report feeling warmth or a pleasant tingling sensation, while others might not feel a thing. Reiki will add to your experience of relaxation, peace, and calm.

What should I bring?
A yoga mat if you've got one (we have some to loan) and a journal, if you're the note taking or journaling type. Sometimes epiphanies happen in the middle of a practice like this, so if you want to capture it...

Got any more questions? Please ask!

Women’s Sacred Circle with Chanting and a Flower Essence Journey

Hosted by Vajrini Gia Buonaguro

Come and join our Women’s Sacred Circle for an evening of chanting, sharing, and awakening. Spend and evening in a safe space with Women who want to create divine friendship, build community, and offer loving support as we open ourselves to our hearts. As women, we intuitively know the joy that comes from supporting and listening to one another. We also know the experience of feeling the need to go deeper, into ourselves, into life, into our hearts. This two hour workshop will give you the opportunity to share sacred time with like minded others and hold space for an experience of super-consciousness. We will use flower essences to assist us in our exploration.

Flower essences are plant medicine made from the flowers of a plant. Resting the flowers in purified water allows the water to accept the ‘imprint’ or ‘essence’ of the flower. That water becomes the flower essence. When you take the flower essence internally, it resonates with your essence and creates space for a shift within you. The shift can be emotional, physical, psychological, spiritual depending on the flower.

Chanting is a sacred, joyful, and healing practice of quieting the mind and opening the heart to feel union with Divine Source. A devotee asked Paramhansa Yogananda “How can we find God in this life?” and the Master answered, “Chanting is half the battle.”

I look forward to sharing this evening with you.

Cost: $25/person
