Vernal & Vagal: A Nervous System Reset on the Spring Equinox | $150

  • Springboard Pilates 72 Pine Street #15 Portland, Maine 04102 USA (map)

Vernal & Vagal Retreat

Presented by Pilates Off the Mat Coaching

On the Vernal Equinox, when day and night are in perfect balance, the Earth pauses at a threshold, then begins to head toward longer days and more light.

On this day, we pause too.

Together, we will gather in community, gently shift our overwhelmed nervous systems, and restore balance from within. By understanding the role of the Vagus Nerve in stress reduction, and practicing techniques to tap into it, we invite healing and nervous system regulation.

In this 3-hour mindset and movement retreat, we will explore how the vagus nerve influences our stress response and learn simple, practical techniques to reset ourselves. Through guided breathing and meditation, gentle classical Pilates, light stretching and self massage, visualization, journaling, inspiring music and readings, and healing circle shares, we will reconnect to our calm inner anchor.

Join Meredith for this Vernal & Vagal Retreat, in a safe and inspiring container, and return to a sense of balance and lightness.
