Renovations began today. A wall is coming down, two rooms becoming one, making space for group gatherings and sound practices to unfold more fully. The kind of change that starts with dust and ends with resonance. We cannot wait to welcome you into the renewed space soon for classes and sound sessions.

We have been a little quieter here lately. Not from absence, but from tending to what is emerging. In the new year, Embodied Wisdom will begin sharing space with Vanessa’s counseling practice, Meadow Grove Counseling. This transition feels meaningful and aligned, and it also brings gentle shifts to our offerings.

With change also comes tenderness. We are saying goodbye to a few truly wonderful team members. Gifted, devoted practitioners who shaped this space in real ways. We feel the sadness of that deeply, alongside immense gratitude for all they offered.

There is still time to practice together. Lily’s final Weekend Reset Yoga class is this Saturday at 10:15am. We would love to gather with you one more time on the mat.

Qigong and group and private sound practices will continue at our current location for now, and will resume in our new space beginning January 13. Until then, the practice continues, right where we are.

Thank you for walking with us through this unfolding.

Qigong & Sound: Flowing Through the Senses
Saturday, December 13 | 12–2pm

Our first class was magical, so we’re bringing it back! Flow through gentle Qigong movements as live gongs, chimes, and other instruments shimmer around you. Drift into stillness as sandalwood scents the air and the soft glow of the moon dances with northern lights above.

This 2-hour gathering with Jason and Vanessa is part ceremony, part experiment, and fully an invitation to soften into wonder:
• Begin with a gentle check-in and intention setting
• Move through 1 hour of Qigong facilitated by Jason, accompanied by live sound played by Vanessa
• Sink into 30 minutes of sound immersion, resting on a mat or in a zero-gravity chair
• Optional closing for reflection, sharing, or quiet integration

Come curious. Come reverent. Come ready to let playfulness and the sacred coexist.

Sound & Vision: A Journey to Your 2026 Intentions
Saturday, January 3, 2026 | 1–4pm

If 2025 felt heavy, uncertain, or noisy, join Vanessa for a pause to breathe, ground, and reconnect with your inner wisdom. This isn’t about fixing your year. It’s about listening to what truly matters to you.

We’ll begin with a 45-minute sound journey to help you settle into your body, release tension, and open to inspiration. Gentle vibrations invite calm, curiosity, and creativity, creating the perfect space for reflection.

Then we’ll move into vision board creation, guided by reflective prompts and playful exploration. Participate in whatever way feels right: journaling, cutting out images in quiet, or sharing with others at the table.

All supplies are included, along with hot tea, water, and light snacks. Just bring your journal, your curiosity, and the parts of yourself ready to be seen and listened to.

Location:
mbodied Wisdom Institute | 845 Silver Spring Plaza, Suite B, Lancaster, PA

You don’t need a plan. You don’t need to know your vision yet. Just arrive and we’ll begin from there.
