Set down the weight of your week and surrender to sound.

Join us at Metta Yoga for an immersive two-hour sound bath: a deeply restorative, women’s-only experience designed to quiet the mind, release tension held in the body, and guide you into a state of profound stillness. No experience necessary. All you have to do is arrive and let go.

You’ll rest in a comfortable supported position while layers of live sound wash over and through you — singing bowls, gongs, chimes, and other resonant instruments creating a healing sonic landscape that shifts your nervous system out of stress and into restoration. Many participants describe the experience as the deepest relaxation they’ve ever felt, with effects that linger long after they leave the mat.

Sound has been used for centuries as a tool for healing and meditation. Modern research supports what ancient traditions have long known — that sound and vibration can reduce cortisol, lower blood pressure, ease anxiety, and promote deep rest.

This offering is held as a space for women to come together, soften, and be supported in a shared, intentional environment.Whether you’re navigating a stressful season, struggling to slow down, or simply craving stillness, this evening is for you.

What to bring: A yoga mat, blanket, pillow, and anything else that helps you feel cozy and at ease. Props are available at the studio.

Doors open 15 minutes before so you can settle in, breathe, and arrive fully before the sound begins.

Space is limited — reserve your spot to secure your place in this intimate experience.

Cost: $35 per person. (10% off for Metta Yoga members applies automatically at checkout)

How do we use Movement and Meditation to restore balance and heal deep-seated  wounds or illness? 

How do we re-envision exercise and mental focus to understand its profound  implications on mind-body health?

This gentle movement and meditation class invites you to reimagine exercise and mental focus as powerful tools for healing and nervous system regulation.

Roots of Wellness April 12, 2026 Class Interview Questions

Shana Walt & Merrill Page

This class blends movement, meditation, and somatic practices. What does a typical session feel like?

Roots of Wellness feels like opening a window and letting fresh light in, both grounding and illuminating. Each class begins with a warm welcome and a brief introduction to the month’s seasonal theme and how it influences the body and mind.

We move into a short meditation, followed by gentle, fluid movement inspired by yoga, qigong, and Pilates. As you move, you’ll receive simple, insightful teachings on how these practices support the nervous system, hormones, and overall health. Class ends with gentle hands-on integration, leaving you feeling relaxed, aligned, and more in tune with what your body needs.

How do these practices help shift people out of chronic stress?
This class is rooted in nervous system support. Chronic stress impacts the body physically, not just mentally, so we focus on helping you safely reconnect with your body. We begin with grounding, creating a sense of safety and presence. From there, intentional, fluid movement helps release stored tension while building strength and stability. This combination helps regulate the nervous system, allowing the body to move out of stress and into a state that supports healing.

How does aligning with seasonal rhythms support well-being?

At the heart of this class is what we call “earth medicine.” Our bodies are deeply connected to natural rhythms, and when we align with them, we access a more intuitive, sustainable form of wellness. This work is less about doing and more about listening, tuning inward, softening, and allowing the body to receive. It is an experiential process that helps you reconnect with your natural state of balance.

What makes this class unique compared to traditional yoga or meditation?
Roots of Wellness blends multiple modalities, including yoga, meditation, qigong, Pilates, and somatic movement, into one cohesive and accessible experience. It is designed not just to help you move, but to help you understand how movement, thoughts, and patterns influence your well-being. The goal is for you to leave feeling embodied, balanced, and empowered, with tools you can carry into daily life. 

Join Merrill and Shana on April 12th at the Corte Madera Studio for Roots of Wellness, centered on renewal and inviting spring energy.

And on May 10, a special Mother’s Day class will offer a dedicated experience for mothers and daughters, a chance to reset, reconnect, and be nourished through movement, meditation, and intentional care.

About the instructors:

Merrill Page, expert in Mindbody Medicine, practitioner of Cranioscral and Polarity therapies, author of  two EARTH MEDICINE books, and mother of four boys welcomes you into a space sure to inspire your spirit, soothe your heart and soften you back into the sanctuary of your own body.

Her decades of experience and study in meditation, nutrition, energy medicine, bodywork, herbs, and movement creates a unique offering across a broad spectrum of disciplines that merge modern minds with ancient wisdom.

Join us for an evening of deep rest, renewal, and heart-centered compassion with Nimisha Gandhi and Emily Wiemer.

We’ll begin by grounding through intention setting, a gentle pranayama practice, and light restorative stretches to invite softness into the body and calm the nervous system. You’ll then be guided into a nourishing co-experience of Yoga Nidra and Sound Bath, woven together in a seamless journey of rest and release.

Sound Bath
Bathe in the soothing vibrations of crystal singing bowls, chimes, and other resonant instruments. These healing sounds support emotional release, energetic balance, and deep states of calm.

Yoga Nidra
Known as “yogic sleep,” this guided practice invites you to rest in stillness while being led into a deeply relaxed, yet conscious, state. Together with the sound bath, it supports nervous system regulation, clarity, and inner renewal.

Before we begin, you’ll have the opportunity to pull an oracle card to set a personal intention or receive insight. At the end of the journey, we’ll close with a heartfelt song from Emily to gently bring you back into waking awareness.

Please bring anything that will help you feel cozy and supported: pillows, blankets, an eye mask, or your favorite grounding object.

Come as you are, and allow yourself to be held in a space of compassion, deep rest, and inner connection.

Join Dana Damara for a special Breathwork workshop!

Breathwork is a powerful transformational journey that inspires individuals to come back to the remembrance of who they are and connect back into the powerful energy of the Earth.  When paired with sound healing, the experience becomes even more nurturing, enhancing relaxation and supporting your healing journey.

Did you know that:

• • We take about 21,000 breaths and host about 90,000 thoughts in one day?

  • Over 80% of our population suffers from anxiety-based diseases?  

  • We hold all the chemicals in our own body to heal?  

You don’t need to go on a psychedelic “trip” to feel the essence of magic in your own body.  Breathwork will do the “work” for you to release, and transform stagnate energy, old wounds, and dysfunctional patterns so you can regain lost soul parts and remember the magic of who you truly are. Empowerment brings wholeness and healing back into your own life, to the lives of those you love, consequently to the world at large. 

In this Workshop, you’ll journey through Breathwork and close with a nurturing sound healing session, leaving you feeling balanced and renewed. Join Dana for this powerful experience!

This fusion of gentle yoga, meditation, and sound creates a supportive space for a full body, mind, and heart reset.

About Robyn:

Robyn is a long time fitness expert and teacher since 1986 in San Diego, Central Coast and San Francisco. Yoga bloomed for her in 2012. Her classes are musically charged and nurturing with a strong emphasis on alignment strength and breath and are held in the intention to create a container of compassion for whatever shows up on the mat. Her hope is through guided, dynamic movement and yoga postures , students will navigate their pathways toward joy and self connection.

Robyn earned her B.S. degree in Kinesiology and minor in Psychology in 1993 and holds certifications combined with 500 hours in American Council of Exercise and American College of Sports Medicine, Keiser Cycle and CPR Certified. She went through Advanced Yoga Teacher Trainings with Lesley Desaulniers, which she is very grateful for.

Teaching and practicing is her safe haven for a peaceful, spiritual, and ritualistic lifestyle where she shares her authentic self with her students. She loves sharing stories of how her yoga practice connects her relationships with community, friends. her husband, and three grown boys (young men).
