Deepening Connections with Body and Plants:

A Collaboration with Soul Revival


Join us to deepen your yoga practice and cultivate relationships with the local plant community!  We'll start our days with yoga, explore plant identification, ethical harvesting, processing, ethnobotany, land stewardship and medicine making. Participants will learn extraction methods including water, oil, and alcohol, and leave with an herbal remedy crafted from the land. While preparing nourishing meals and herbal medicines, we'll celebrate the ways our minds, hearts, and spirits are enriched through deepened bonds with the plant world.

Yoga will be led by Marrisa Steiner of Soul Revival, with our herbal exploration led by Kayleigh Martin of MLLS and Anya Hanson. Anya is a graduate of Bastyr University’s Herbal Sciences program and has completed work-trades with farms and herbalists across the United States and Europe. She is passionate about cultivating reciprocal relationships with the plants in her community through growing, harvesting, cooking, and formulating herbal remedies. In her free time, she enjoys hiking New England’s 4,000-footers, baking bread, and creating herbal skincare products.
