Workshop Description

Bianca is a Puerto Rican Philadelphian born in the urban condition raised in Quaker practice. She is a 200hr Registered Yoga Teacher and Certified Reiki Practitioner.

“Meditation: A Guided Journey Back to Self” led by Bianca Santini-Dumas. In this session, we will explore the profound practice of meditation as a means to reconnect with our inner selves and deepen our spiritual awareness. Through gentle guidance and reflective exercises, participants will be invited to cultivate a sense of inner peace and presence, allowing for a deeper understanding of our true nature and inner wisdom.

During this workshop, we will delve into various meditation techniques, including breath awareness, body scan, and loving-kindness meditation, tailored to suit all levels of experience. These practices will help us quiet the mind, release tension, and open our hearts to the present moment. As we journey inward, we may discover new insights, clarity, and a renewed sense of purpose, guiding us on our path of spiritual growth and self-discovery.

Whether you are new to meditation or have an established practice, this workshop offers a nurturing space to explore and deepen your connection with yourself and the Divine. Join us as we embark on this guided journey back to self, embracing the peace and wisdom that resides within each of us.

Yoga mats, blocks and pillows are encouraged as there will be low intensity movement. Calm music will be played, and essential oils will be present. Please bring a journal and writing utensil.
