SUMMARY:The Hearth
DESCRIPTION:The Hearth A gathering place for women who crave connection — quietly. \n\n\n\nIf you’re someone who longs to belong\, but finds most social spaces a little too loud\, a little too “on\,” a little too much — this is for you. \n\n\n\nThe Hearth is a simple\, unhurried hour where women gather without agenda. There’s tea and low-key activity options from mindful colouring to reading to gentle guided movement. There’s no mingling required\, no hot seat introductions\, no performance of any kind. \n\n\n\nJust women\, in a room together\, being exactly as they are. \n\n\n\n(Yes\, as an introvert myself\, I realize the irony of trying to rally introverts. I hope you’ll come out anyway!)  \n\n\n\nYou don’t have to talk. You don’t have to share. You only have to show up — and even that\, we’ll keep easy. \n\n\n\nThe Hearth is offered six weeks at a time\, weekly. One hour. A seat that’s always yours. \n\n\n\nFor the woman who is quietly desperate for her people — and just needed somewhere safe to find them. \n\n\n\nThis event is hosted by Julie Chapman\, a Certified Yoga Therapist\, who specializes in supporting women through life’s transitions. You can find more information about her at juliechapman.org.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFree for members of My Inner Harbour. $30 for all 6 sessions for non-members. $10 drop-in per session.

SUMMARY:The Power of Nervous System Variability
DESCRIPTION:The problem isn’t that there isn’t enough information about regulating your nervous system.It’s that there’s too much — and none of it was written for you. \n\n\n\nYou’ve tried the hacks. Saved the reels. Read the books. Done the cold plunges. And still — it seems to work for everyone else\, but not for you. \n\n\n\nHere’s the truth: you’re not doing it wrong. You’re just working from someone else’s map. \n\n\n\nThe Power of Nervous System Variability is an in-person group class — part workshop\, part practice — designed to help you find your map. Not generic tools. Not another hack. Real exploration and guided support to discover what actually feels right in your body\, your nervous system\, your life. \n\n\n\nYou’ll leave each class with tools that work — because they were built with you\, not for the masses. \n\n\n\nSmall group classes. Your map\, not anyone else’s. \n\n\n\nWhat to expect: \n\n\n\nEach session runs 75 minutes in a small\, intentional group of ten women maximum. Every week will be led with experiential practices such as gentle movement\, breath awareness\, guided mindfulness and sensory exploration\, woven together with educationat points to make sense of what your body is telling you and empower you with the tools to find calm when anxiety runs high. \n\n\n\nYou won’t be put on the spot. You won’t be asked to share. You’ll simply be guided\, held\, and given space to notice. \n\n\n\nAll levels of ability are welcome. Please bring a yoga mat and wear comfortable clothing. \n\n\n\nFacilitated by Julie Chapman\, Certified Yoga Therapist. To register please visit: https://www.juliechapman.org/services. If you are a member of My Inner Harbour please send us an email to get your 20% off discount code for these classes.

SUMMARY:The Hearth
DESCRIPTION:The Hearth A gathering place for women who crave connection — quietly. \n\n\n\nIf you’re someone who longs to belong\, but finds most social spaces a little too loud\, a little too “on\,” a little too much — this is for you. \n\n\n\nThe Hearth is a simple\, unhurried hour where women gather without agenda. There’s tea and low-key activity options from mindful colouring to reading to gentle guided movement. There’s no mingling required\, no hot seat introductions\, no performance of any kind. \n\n\n\nJust women\, in a room together\, being exactly as they are. \n\n\n\n(Yes\, as an introvert myself\, I realize the irony of trying to rally introverts. I hope you’ll come out anyway!)  \n\n\n\nYou don’t have to talk. You don’t have to share. You only have to show up — and even that\, we’ll keep easy. \n\n\n\nThe Hearth is offered six weeks at a time\, weekly. One hour. A seat that’s always yours. \n\n\n\nFor the woman who is quietly desperate for her people — and just needed somewhere safe to find them. \n\n\n\nThis event is hosted by Julie Chapman\, a Certified Yoga Therapist\, who specializes in supporting women through life’s transitions. You can find more information about her at juliechapman.org.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nFree for members of My Inner Harbour. $30 for all 6 sessions for non-members. $10 drop-in per session.

SUMMARY:The Power of Nervous System Variability
DESCRIPTION:The problem isn’t that there isn’t enough information about regulating your nervous system.It’s that there’s too much — and none of it was written for you. \n\n\n\nYou’ve tried the hacks. Saved the reels. Read the books. Done the cold plunges. And still — it seems to work for everyone else\, but not for you. \n\n\n\nHere’s the truth: you’re not doing it wrong. You’re just working from someone else’s map. \n\n\n\nThe Power of Nervous System Variability is an in-person group class — part workshop\, part practice — designed to help you find your map. Not generic tools. Not another hack. Real exploration and guided support to discover what actually feels right in your body\, your nervous system\, your life. \n\n\n\nYou’ll leave each class with tools that work — because they were built with you\, not for the masses. \n\n\n\nSmall group classes. Your map\, not anyone else’s. \n\n\n\nWhat to expect: \n\n\n\nEach session runs 75 minutes in a small\, intentional group of ten women maximum. Every week will be led with experiential practices such as gentle movement\, breath awareness\, guided mindfulness and sensory exploration\, woven together with educationat points to make sense of what your body is telling you and empower you with the tools to find calm when anxiety runs high. \n\n\n\nYou won’t be put on the spot. You won’t be asked to share. You’ll simply be guided\, held\, and given space to notice. \n\n\n\nAll levels of ability are welcome. Please bring a yoga mat and wear comfortable clothing. \n\n\n\nFacilitated by Julie Chapman\, Certified Yoga Therapist. To register please visit: https://www.juliechapman.org/services. If you are a member of My Inner Harbour please send us an email to get your 20% of discount code for these classes.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED for Tonight *** The Power of Nervous System Variability
DESCRIPTION:Maybe you have spent a lot of your life trying to calm down. Settle. Even out. Be less. \n\n\n\nWhat if that was never the point? \n\n\n\nYour nervous system isn’t broken — it’s brilliantly\, beautifully variable. It moves through states the way weather moves through a landscape. And when you understand that range\, when you can feel it and work with it rather than against it — everything changes. \n\n\n\nOver six weeks we’ll use somatic practices to explore your nervous system from the inside out. \n\n\n\nThis is not about becoming calm. It’s about becoming fluent. \n\n\n\nWhat to expect: \n\n\n\nEach session runs 75 minutes in a small\, intentional group of ten women maximum. Every week will be led with experiential practices such as gentle movement\, breath awareness\, guided mindfulness and sensory exploration\, woven together with educationat points to make sense of what your body is telling you and empower you with the tools to find calm when anxiety runs high. \n\n\n\nYou won’t be put on the spot. You won’t be asked to share. You’ll simply be guided\, held\, and given space to notice. \n\n\n\nAll levels of ability are welcome. Please bring a yoga mat and wear comfortable clothing. \n\n\n\nFacilitated by Julie Chapman\, Certified Yoga Therapist.
