$10 mini massages Monday night at Saltwater Massage Studio!

Massages are about 10 minutes and focus on neck & shoulders or a focus area of your choice. A perfect spot treatment.
Spring Ahead in Life
How’s that for a corny title? Haha.
Seriously though – the deep cold has broke, and spring is here. As New Englanders that means it’s time for us to get to work. Clean up the yard, the garage, the basement, the attic.
The average American home has 300,000 items in it. So much of that is crap we just don’t need anymore. Let it go. All of those things that you’ve been holding on to, “just in case”? Not only taking up space, but your time and energy as well. Moving them. Cleaning them. Worrying about them. Sell it. Donate it. Give it to your neighbors. Throw it out. Get a fresh start.
That Zodiac in your backyard that is entirely de-laminated? Garbage.
The same is true for your spirit’s home – your body. Clear out the clutter this spring. A hot yoga practice is like opening the attic windows and turning on a fan. It’s like pressure washing the garage floor. It’s like taking a barney bag and filling it with all of that moldy and broken luggage that you inherited 20 years ago from your ex-wife’s uncle. Get rid of that shit. Make space for something new.
How do you do that? Well you could stop drinking, and smoking, and eating so much red meat. You could cut out all processed foods, start going to church, or temple, and start running 5 miles a day. You could commit to reading every day, volunteering somewhere in the community every week, and trying to be nicer to your co-worker who you really think is an idiot.
Yes. All of those things are good to do and if you did any one of those you would probably see a dramatic change in your life. But we’re not asking you to do any of those things. Change can be hard. Especially if it’s worthwhile change, it can be really surprisingly challenging. All we propose you do is take the first step. If you’ve never taken a Hot Power Yoga class before – commit to trying it out this week. We have classes all day and every day, and they are always all levels and just $10.
If you used to do yoga, but haven’t gone in a while, or you practice regularly but are looking for some inspiration – kickstart your practice and come take a Master Class with Norm Brzycki on Sunday, March 20 from 9-10:30. As always – JUST $10.
March 20 Master Class
If you have a regular yoga practice but maybe you know that a regular hot power yoga practice isn’t for you – you can still come and be a part of our community by participating in our quarterly
108 Sun Saluations
To head into Spring – we have the great pleasure of being lead through our 108 Sun Saluations by our students currently participating in our Teacher Training program. They are a really intelligent and committed group and the type of people you’ll be happy to spend time with.
Schedule Changes
It turns our there is a high demand for high quality, affordable, hot power yoga in Gloucester. We now offer early morning and mid-morning classes 7 days a week, and Noon classes Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. We have classes all day, every day, for all levels, and always just $10. Come and join us! Clear out your clutter.

The afternoon of Saturday, April 2 we are offering a two part workshop with an amazing, fun, and inspiring teacher. You’ll learn cool party tricks, techniques to provide powerful therapy for friends and loved ones, and get to meet some of the really fun and down to earth people who practice at Cape Ann Power Yoga.
This is NOT the cool kids club – you don’t need an Instagram account or LuLu Lemon pants to come and participate. All you need is a good attitude and a basic yoga practice. Especially if you haven’t come to see what we’re about at Cape Ann Power Yoga, come and spend an inspiring afternoon with us. It’s worth the drive.

Reiki for a Cause: Family Promise North Shore Boston and More
Promoting Optimal Wellness for Body, Mind and Spirit
Reiki for a Cause – Community Reiki Shares are held ‘first Tuesdays. Each month, a charity is selected to receive a portion of the proceeds (net proceeds up to 100%.) Charities that have been selected through the years have included those on Cape Ann (Cape Ann Animal Aid, Wellspring, SeniorCare Inc. Open Door,) the North Shore (Beverly Bootstraps, Reid’s Ride,) individuals and families in need, and charitable causes abroad.
This month’s designee is Family Promise North Shore Boston. Hear what our Reiki Colleague, Carol B had to say about Family Promise –
“Family Promise North Shore Boston is a nonprofit interfaith hospitality network that provides temporary shelter, meals, hospitality, and case management for families experiencing homelessness on the North Shore.
Family Promise North Shore Boston began serving homeless families in May of 2013. They bring together existing community resources and volunteers in order to further their mission of housing families, keeping families together, and helping them get back on their feet. There currently are thirteen local churches who for 4 weeks each year open their doors and provide a place to stay, food and warm hospitality.
In addition to the dedicated staff who work with families around locating affordable housing, finding jobs, budgeting resources, and parenting skills, there are about 50 volunteers each week who stay overnight with the guests, play with the children, and open their hearts in support of these families.
Each person truly makes difference and the giving and receiving from the heart goes both ways.” ~ Carol B. of Family Promise North Shore Boston
~ To Give is to Receive. ~
To Advance Register for the monthly Community Reiki Share – Call 978-283-4258 or Email – info@dreamtimewellness.com.
If you have or know of a local charity that would like to partner with our Community Reiki Shares for a cause, contact us.
Tuesday. March 1st – Stop by for a Session of Reiki and help fund charitable causes, or stop by to donate to local causes that interest you.
Manchester Community Center. 40 Beach St. 5:15 – 8:15 pm.
What is Reiki – Reiki (ray-kee) is a hands-on (or non-touch for those that prefer) Japanese healing method/art. During a session, recipients are fully clothed and can lie down or sit for their sessions. Preliminary search indicates that a session of Reiki can promote relaxation and potentially decrease stress, increase calm, and improve comfort. More information on Reiki and other integrative therapies can be found at the National Center Complementary and Integrative Health (www.nccih.gov.) Not to take the place of conventional medicine, Reiki is offered in hospitals and other healthcare settings, as supportive care for patients undergoing cancer treatment, pain management, and before and after surgery.
Contact me for more information or to schedule a session or training. ‘Introduction to Reiki’ lectures are available, offering continuing education (ceu’s) for nurses, social workers and case managers.
Best in health, Karen
