The Sacred Wound: When Pain Becomes Power
Tuesday • 6-8pm | The Yoga Sanctuary • Barboursville
September 22 • $36
There are experiences we would never choose, and yet sometimes the life we build around them reveals capacities we may never have known were there.
Courage. Compassion. Discernment. Boundaries. Voice. Tenderness. Wisdom.
The wound itself is not the gift. What we discover within ourselves while tending the wound can become medicine.
Join us at The Yoga Sanctuary for a special two-hour Equinox Breathwork Circle exploring the Sacred Wound and the passage from pain into reclaimed power.
Through breathwork, somatic practice, meditation, and reflection, we’ll explore the places where our energy may have become bound up in protection, survival, or old emotional patterns, while honoring the intelligence of everything that helped us arrive here.
The current Vedic astrology offers a powerful map for the evening. The Moon in Shravana invites deep listening. Mars in Cancer asks us to explore our relationship with protection, vulnerability, and agency. Punarvasu carries the promise of restoration and the return of the light. Exalted Jupiter in Ashlesha reminds us that wisdom and medicine can emerge from even the most complicated parts of our story.
Our journey will move through four stages: Listen. Protect. Restore. Reclaim.
We’ll listen beneath the noise for what is true now.
We’ll honor the parts of ourselves that learned to protect what mattered.
We’ll invite our life force back into the present.
And we’ll recognize the strength, wisdom, and medicine that are ours to carry forward.
As the Equinox brings light and darkness into balance and opens the doorway into autumn, we’ll close by asking:
What wisdom will I carry across this threshold?
What no longer needs to come with me?
What power has become mine to use differently now?
You do not have to carry the poison to carry the wisdom.
No previous breathwork experience is needed.
