HAPPY ✨ MINDFUL ✨ MUSICAL ✨ MANTRA ✨ MEDITATION ✨ MONDAY!

Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu.
May all Beings be happy and free.

It’s not just an affirmation or song. It’s an energy that fosters us to make compassionate choices for collective wellbeing before our individual gain. It asks us to Look at your thoughts words and daily interactions.

✨How can we be more intentional, mindful and compassionate with ourselves and others?✨

Maybe it’s choosing to listen rather than react. Maybe it’s choosing ethical, cruelty-free products.
Maybe it’s looking into the eyes of someone who is different than you or with whom you disagree with compassion.
Maybe it’s abstaining from eating meat (even for a day), or just respecting animals as an equal Maybe it’s speaking up about injustices in the world, or sharing a post that helps educate people.
Maybe it’s about not using chemicals on your lawn or planting a native garden to give the bees and buggies a home.
Maybe it’s being mindful of how much you consume and how much trash you create.
Maybe it’s picking up a piece of trash rather than ignoring it.

It’s generosity over greed, loving kindness over ill will, connection over separation.

In what ways do you live out this mantra? Share your ideas in the comments. We would love to hear em!

Happy AUTISM Awareness Month. 🧩🌟🫶
Today we feature Kyle and Our very popular Slithery Slithery series. This series asks students to pretend they’re a snake. Students choose where they go and what they see.

Everything we offer is with intention. Our 🐍 series supports creativity and imagination. The movement helps students to practice gliding their spine side to side for mobility. The Cobra (Bhujangasana) pose strengthens the back line of the body while stretching the front line. It also supports healthy digestion ~ something many of our students have challenges around. Our ‘SSSS’ breath relaxes us and helps the brain around rewiring behaviors. I place this series right before shavasana as a prep to help them settle into stillness and soothe the nervous system. There are way more benefits but that’s the jist!!👌🏽

🐍 Meet Kyle the Snake 🐍 Kyle has autism and is one of our newer students and he loves his yoga! We sing and move and breathe and at the end we douse ourselves with lavender EO and listen to Inner Peace by while i give him compression squeezes. Most often we can’t get Kyle to rise up at the end. BIG WIN!! 🎶

The very best part is Kyle’s mom Karen does yoga with us ! Thank you Mom!! The co-regulation component is so dang important! Our sessions always welcome a caretaker or support staff to join. We value our caretakers and know how much they need care, movement and relaxation too. 🫶🫶🫶

I love you Kyle. I love your creativity and silliness and I love that you love yoga time with me.

Please leave Kyle some 🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍 to let him know how loved he is!

💚 all HEARTS are welcome here! 💚

Sunday was an afternoon of sunshine, horses and crafting welcome mats. Tbh, this event almost didn’t happen for me. I was feeling really depleted after a demanding week But This morning I rallied myself bc I knew it was what I truly needed ~ creativity, joy, presence and horse heart medicine! Spending time with them ~ It was all I needed. Feeling super grounded and grateful to support women owned businesses and animals.

We lost $2091.59 by trusting in people doing the right thing. Selling a good and following through. This bed was for my special hearts students. It vibrates with sound. So good for the nervous system - brain flossing - lymphatic system and so much more.

There are other beds out there and ppl have shared them with me. Yes, I still want to invest in a bed like this for our space but shelling out thousands for nothing has jaded me towards trusting companies. I can’t lose another 2-3k, the business I’m in isn’t lucrative as it is. I just wanted something to support my special hearts students .

Updates: I’ve written to BBB - no response so they closed the claim.
Called Attorney general. No response

I know a lot of people didn’t believe me. Because so many “got their beds” but the comments still come in about this company not fulfilling hundreds of others. If you do a quick google search they filed for bankruptcy, Their website is down and their store front has a For lease sign on it.

And
Today I filed a claim - albeit late - to their bankruptcy filing and it wouldnt accept it bacause it was late as i only found out about this this morning AND every person Who did claim on time is receiving same response “larger that usual claim volume”.

It’s really sad that this company did this. They continued to sell product for years after not fulfilling purchases. It’s a scam. Opus shame on you!

🚩OPUS SOUND BED COMPANY STOLE $2200 FROM MY SPECIAL HEARTS ADAPTIVE WELLNESS PROGRAM! 🚩

I wanted to use my platform to inform my followers of a SCAM going on in the healing arts world.

Late last year I was introduced to the Opus sound bed and I really found it remarkably helpful for regulating my nervous system. I used it a couple times before deciding that I would like to invest in one for my students. Knowing how much my students enjoy Sound Healing and vibration I felt like the Opus Sound Bed would be a great addition to our Special Hearts Adaptive Wellness Sessions.

On December 5 2024 I purchased the bed for $2200 off their website.

🚩In early January I attempted to check tracking and no tracking was available. I emailed them and received a very void response about it being in production. I emailed 1 month later and no additional information was available. Another copy and paste response.

❗️In late Feb I researched and read far too many complaints about people not receiving their bed for years ! At that point I emailed them to cancel my order. He responded promptly offering to refund me (which pleased me).They asked for some information to refund me in a check. I provided that information and then every 3 to 4 weeks after that checked in on where my check was.

‼️By late April, I had no check and no sound bed. I realized I had been scammed. There were 300 BBB complaints as of yesterday. Almost all closed due to lack of response from the company.

I submitted a charge back with my bank. However, I was unaware that I only had 120 days to do so and it was promptly dismissed. The bank couldn’t help me.

Not only is this company scamming hundreds of people out of $2000 but they are using wellness and healing as their scam platform. It’s absolutely disgusting! They are lying in their replies to keep you holding out until it’s too late for a chargeback. They gaslight you !
I know people in the area who have been scammed by them too!

I know your going to ask and
No, there are no telephone numbers to reach them.
No,there are no class action lawsuits. I would join one if so.
Nobody is getting refunds and nobody is getting their beds.

It’s hard to find any information from the company and they delete any bad comments on their social media.

They’re still running ads and marketing the sale of their product even though they’re not providing it!

I don’t know how they are getting away with this behavior! And it’s so out of alignment and unkind! I worked so hard; to loose $2200 that I was intended to enrich my students lives makes me sick!

If anyone has any ideas, Please i welcome them !
At this point, I don’t know what to do but I just wanted to use my voice to warn you not to fall for the scam!!

Bella and Miss Amanda 💕 have been connecting for several months now and have developed a strong bond.

Amanda is deeply empathetic and intentional. She has a background in Physical Therapy and although we don’t offer PT (she explicitly doesn’t show up as a PT) she is able to use her wisdom and experience to safely support Bella in exploring adapted wellness practices.

Bella sees Amanda in the comfort of her own home to make sessions accessible. Together they co-create the session, explore mindful movement with pool noodle exercises and do creative core games. Bella loves music and has enjoyed attending our Mindful Music In the Park event ~ which is how I met & connected with her beautiful family🤗. Knowing she loves musical meditation, Amanda ensures they incorporate playing ocean drums and singing yoga songs.

But …. The most beneficial part is their love and connection!!

✨✨✨✨We love you Bella + Amanda.. You are a light in this world! Keep shining! ✨✨✨

We LOVE chair yoga and all that is possible when we properly support ourselves!! 🦋🙏🏽🪑

🧘🏽‍♀️Here Alaina and her support staff are showing us an adapted version of butterfly pose AND legs up the wall. I love that they do the session together, learning alongside one another and allowing for co-regulation. Outside of our sessions they support each other in their wellness journey and I love to witness this and their beautiful practice!

🦋 For those who cannot get down on the ground easily this BUTTERFLY pose version is an accessible option to try. Even if being on a mat is in your practice ~ I would love you to try this and let me know your experience!?

🪑Sir in a chair. Have two yoga blocks (or a stack of books) in front of you. Place your soles of your feet together with the outer edges of the feet resting on the blocks. Adjust the height so that you feel comfortable and then settle in and breathe! 🦋

🙏🏽 In our we are hands on, always adjusting and accommodating our practice as needed for our students. Each student helps co-create their experience and incorporates the modalities that help them regulate and be more present, conscious and mindful. No two sessions are the same ! Any questions about our services - reach out!

Nothing helps my mental health more than walking AND being in the woods. My dogs and I walk year round. We bundle up and go, and it’s always been my movement therapy of choice.

It’s the Fresh air - the leaf crunchies - the tree hugs - the bird songs. 🫠 It all supports me in grounding and coming back into regulated state.

We are Looking forward to what’s popping up as the seasons change, foraging with herbal friends and all the fun nature things that spring brings! Wooohoo

If you love being in nature as much as we do and want a buddy, DM US and let’s get outside.
