🌟Family Constellations & Meditation Immersive Experience 🌟
Monarch Wellness Center’s Final Offering of 2026
We wanted to give you a head start and extend an invitation to plan ahead!
If you have ever been curious about Family Constellation work, this is a wonderful opportunity to experience it in a small-group setting. Feedback from our previous session was overwhelmingly positive—participants described it as life-changing, deeply moving, and profoundly healing.
Every participant benefits from this immersive experience, whether by:
• Bringing a personal question to the group
• Participating within a family dynamic
• Serving as a representative for another participant
Even through observation alone, the experience can be transformative. Being fully present, open, and surrendered to the process is often just as fruitful as actively participating. The healing of one is the healing of all.
This in-person group immersion includes active Family Constellation work along with a brief introduction to meditation.
Family Constellations offer an opportunity to uncover hidden dynamics and inherited patterns within a family’s history. Through this process, participants often gain new awareness and insight, creating the possibility for meaningful change and new choices in their lives.
Our Group Agreements:
• Embrace all experiences without judgment
• Show respect for every participant
• Maintain confidentiality regarding what is shared
• Help create a calm, peaceful, and supportive environment
Dates: Wednesday, November 11th, 2026

Grief is not limited to the death of a loved one. We may grieve a relationship, a life transition, changes in health, a job, a dream, or a version of ourselves that no longer exists. Whatever is asking for your attention, you are welcome here.
Our time together will include discussion, reflection, gentle movement, breath and sound. Susan and Serena will be holding and facilitating space to honor our losses, reconnect with ourselves, and move toward healing.
$90 pre-registration is requested as space is limited. Venmo (Grief in comment with your phone number and email) or use Mindbody app.

☀️ Open Hips, Open Mind ☀️
Monarch Wellness is grateful to welcome Carmel Calcagno as she offers Open Hips, Open Mind: A Workshop on Saturday October 17th!
Carmel started her journey in 1989 when a book fell on her in a local bookstore. It brought her to her first yoga class and then to meet her teacher John Friend years later. She is a certified Anusara Yoga Teacher. Most important is her study of meditation this past decade with Dr. Joe Dispenza.
The practice of yoga may feel challenging at first—much like life itself.
Through practice, we begin to recognize beauty and power not only around us, but within us.
We may step away from our mat for months, even years, but one of the gifts of yoga is this: the body remembers. Our intelligent body gently guides us back. It remembers the breath, the movement, the feeling of creating space within ourselves.
We practice without grasping—aparigraha—releasing our attachment to what was and what has yet to be. We return to this moment, because this moment is the only one we can truly inhabit. The past has already passed. The future has not yet arrived. There is only this breath, this body, this space, and you on your mat.
Here, we learn compassion. We learn acceptance. We learn what it means to be in relationship with ourselves. We discover our strength and our poise on the mat, and we carry them with us into the world. Slowly, gently, we begin to restore what has become stiff or misaligned, creating space in the body and finding greater harmony between body, mind, and breath. And perhaps most importantly, we learn to meet ourselves exactly where we are—with grace, patience, and acceptance.This is the gift of the practice.
This workshop will be gently guided by Carmel and is accessible to all levels of experience.If this is the beginning, then let this be the beginning.
$ 50. Pre-registration is required to reserve your space. To register, visit the Mindbody app or submit payment via Venmo to Monarch Wellness. When paying through Venmo, please include your email address and phone number in the comments section. Spaces are limited and advance registration is required.
Date: Saturday, October 17th
Time: 3pm – 5pm

😮💨 A Sacred Pause: A Breathwork Journey for Mothers 😮💨
Monarch Wellness is excited to welcome Danielle Conforti for A Sacred Pause: A Breathwork Journey for Mothers on Tuesday 10/13 9:30am – 11am and Sunday 10/25 10am – 11:30am
Mothering is sacred work. We give, hold, nurture, worry, love, and somehow keep going. Sometimes taking time for ourselves can feel selfish. But what if pausing is part of how we care for our ourselves and the people we love?
This is your invitation to step out of the doing and into the being. A space to settle into your body, breathe, and reconnect with the woman beneath all the roles you carry!
Through a somatic breathwork journey, we will make room for whatever has been held inside, letting emotions move, the body soften, and something in you open.
No experience needed. No fixing. No getting it right. Just you and your breath, because our breath is always there, we simply need to pause and remember.
Like many of us my path to mindfulness began during one of life’s most challenging moments. As a 2 month old, my youngest daughter became very ill and I found myself overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, desperately seeking ways to stay grounded during sleepless nights.What started as a simple necessity , finding ways to calm my racing mind and heart, eventually blossomed into a transformative practice that reshaped my life and continued with the students I taught.
Danielle is a mother of 3, lifelong teacher and celebrated author.
$ 35 each session. Pre-registration is required to reserve your space. To register, visit the Mindbody app or submit payment via Venmo to Monarch Wellness. When paying through Venmo, please include your email address and phone number in the comments section. Spaces are limited and advance registration is required.

💫 Sacred Dance with Linda Soulstice 💫
Monarch Wellness is excited to welcome back Lina Soulstice share more of her magic for Dance as Prayer · Movement as Medicine
A somatic journey where movement and ethnic rhythms become a gateway into deep meditation and healing. Through intuitive dance, pelvic and spinal movement, breath, and embodied awareness, we soften mental barriers, release stored emotions, and reconnect with the wisdom of the body.
This workshop invites you into the essence of the divine feminine, sensual, creative, cyclical, and alive, while honoring playfulness and freedom of expression. No choreography, no expectations, only presence, curiosity, and permission to move from the soul.
A safe, sacred space to heal, feel, and remember who you are.
Dress comfortably, wear anything that inspires you. If you need to eat prior, we recommend eating lightly.
