Rise. A Healing Offering. Resilience. Invitational. Support. Empowerment.

Grief hurts. Grief is exhausting. Grief lives in the body as an unwanted guest we don't want to let in the door. Navigating loss is scary. There is no way around it...just gently moving through it. You are invited to an all levels class, which can be performed from a chair or mat. This healing opportunity is for anyone who has been suffering from a recent loss or one that has happened long ago. Loss is not limited to the passing of a loved one. Individuals suffering from the loss of a pet, a relationship, a miscarriage, a divorce, a job or any other transition is welcome in this space.

The mission of Rise is to be of service to people in struggle. To help normalize this human experience we all have. You will use yoga, movement, breath and sound to move through pain and struggle. This makes room for empowerment, while remembering with more love.

During your class experience, you are encouraged to take care of yourself. Resting at any point, adjusting or varying movements are welcoming options to support you in this space.

Jen is a Grief Yoga®Trained teacher and Certified Grief Educator.

Join online the 1st & 3rd Wednesdays of the month. The class is from 7-8pm EDT.

Investment: $5 donation.

To honor everyone's time & energy, please register on the day of class by 5pm. If no one has registered, I will take the night off to rest and reset. If people have signed up, but no participants have joined by 7:05pm, the session will be closed unless you contact me. I will check email to look for your note that you will join practice.

"In time and with help- even after the most devastating losses, we grow around our wounds and we can experience the sweetness of peace, and remember with more love than pain."

Rise. is a part of the I am Supported series. This experience offers a healing space, created for those navigating seasons of transition—whether marked by uncertainty, quiet grief, growth, or a simple curiosity about what comes next. This class invites you to meet yourself exactly where you are, without pressure to fix, change, or perform.

Through the Compassionate Cycle of Transformation you will be offered supportive movements, yoga postures, breath awareness, along with curious opportunities for connection and guided reflection. Hopefully, you’ll experience a few smiles while you explore. Rise offers space to soften the nervous system, listen inward, and reconnect with your own steady ground. Options and props are offered throughout, honoring different bodies, energy levels, and lived experiences.

This practice is less about pushing forward and more about allowing something true to emerge—strength, rest, clarity, or compassion. You are welcome exactly as you are. You will end the session with nourishing Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) for deep rest and nervous system integration.

Wednesday 7:30-8:30pm, Every 2nd Wednesday~ Grief Yoga® and Support in East Cobb @ Gruvn Yoga. Voted best of 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025! Everyone experiences loss in their lives, and grief is common feeling we all share. It may be the death of a loved one or pet. It might be a relationship coming to an end or loss of a job or a dream. Loss is loss, and you can carry that energetic weight in your body. Moving your physical body through gentle shapes and shifting that energy inside is one of the best ways to process grief. This grief yoga class offers a supportive, compassionate practice to allow the pain of grief and loss to move through your body and allows each person space (in their time) to remember with more love than pain. This practice is for all bodies and can be done on a mat or a chair, in any comfortable clothes.

Thursday 7:30-8:45pm~ Restorative Yoga in East Cobb @ Gruvn Yoga. Best of Cobb 2022, 2023, 2024 & 2025! Initial 30 days for $30! This class allows its participants to actually REST. Relaxing and restful on the surface, restorative is a therapeutic, nervous system down regulation practice that supports spaciousness in the body and mind. Whether you take restorative yoga for therapeutic purposes or as a rejuvenating compliment to your challenge classes, restorative yoga calms the overactive nervous system. Props are used to support the body fully, with no strain or tension, as the poses are held for longer lengths of time.

Sunday 7-8pm, every 1st & 3rd Sunday~ Yoga Nidra in East Cobb @ Gruvn Yoga. Best of Cobb 2022, 2023, 2024 & 2025! Initial 30 days for $30! Come to your mat and experience yogic sleep. An experience of stillness where you are guided through states of consciousness, between waking and sleep. All induced by guided meditation. You will experience your senses, in a nest of blankets and pillows, as you allow your body to melt into your supportive surface.

You're invited to an extended-length Restorative and Yoga Nidra class, with an all-levels experience designed to allow your body time to release and restore in a calm, soothing environment.

You will experience a rebalancing Yoga Nidra, then be led into the deep relaxation that Restorative yoga has to offer.

There are four main aspects of a Restorative Yoga practice that are included in this class. Still. Quiet. Dark. Warm. All of these elements allow your body to begin the process of softening and quieting. This allows your nervous system to take refuge.

This gentle practice in stillness can often be challenging for our busy natures. But the conscious act of offering yourself rest is the ultimate form of self-care. You will be guided into shapes that are fully supported with props, which then creates ease and opening.

A restorative practice differs from yin, in that there is no deep stretching. Rather, each restorative shape allows the opportunity for a fully supported, mini-meditation and internal reflection.

If you have a blanket you love, bring it with you. This can help ease you into the refuge you desperately need. Otherwise, we have the props to support You.
