Meditation and Breathwork Classes

Reprogram your mind for inner expansion!

Feel the support of a community of like-minded people gathering together once a week to share tea, spiritual teachings, conversation, breathwork and meditation.  No one is an island.  There is so much richness to be gained in sharing with and learning from others.  We offer each other new perspectives, alleviating the stuckness we feel when our thoughts are looping on repeat

Spritual teachings open the space for deeper self-awareness and understanding of your reality.  They provide a focus for contemplation that expands the mind to an unlimited potential.  Breathwork connects you with your vital life force, calms and stabilizes your nervous system and opens the space both physically and energetically for deep meditation.

Meditation connects you with your higher self, your divine self, your God self…whatever you want to call it.  In meditation, you can expand beyond the concepts of time and space and the limitations of who you think you are, how your mind has defined you.  You enter into the present moment where you and all is in perfection, and there is nothing to do and nowhere to get to. 

Join us for a life-changing 7 week journey!

The Courage to Be Yourself

directing your prana towards the expression of your natural self!

What is courage? How do you express it? In this 7 week series, we’ll be exploring what it really means to be courageous. You’ll learn the 3 types of courage and what it takes to put them into action.

“Courage is the force that propels our prana, our vitality, in a certain direction with intensity and consistency.  We all have courage.  It is prana, and it is the force of life.” – Berdhanya Swami Tierra

Express your Divine qualities… Each moment you have the opportunity to look at yourself with fresh eyes, free from any definitions or past influences. Each day offers us the space to follow what brings us joy, delights our heart and highlights unique expression of the divine.

The courage to be more you is the courage to engage fully in the play of life. It is about taking the responsibility to show-up and know that you can handle anything you’ve designed through your experiences to learn and grow, so that you can be more you!

Who this program is for:

This program is for you if you are looking to step into your life with greater presence, courage and expression of your uniqueness. If you have been procrastinating, postponing or feel stuck in taking action in your life, this 7 weeks will help you to identify where you are stuck and put you in touch with the powerful being you are to move through any blocks.

What you can expect:

Each week we will explore a theme linked to courage through inspiring spiritual wisdom and practical knowledge. You’ll be guided through a breathwork sequence, which will include gentle spinal warm-ups and breathing practices to ground you in the body, ignite the navel centre and vagus nerve, deeply relax the nervous system and bring calm and clarity to the mind and emotions. We finish each class with a meditation to allow for new pathways to connect in the brain, opening new possibilities for your expansion.

Emotional Healing

7 weeks to a lighter, brighter, more expansive you!

Our emotions can take us on a wild ride, leaving us feeling exhausted, confused, unable to focus or be present to others, ourselves and our life. We may feel the intensity of our pain as something that has taken us over and we cannot seem to find a way out. Or, we may choose patterns, behaviours or addictions that help us to numb-out, to not feel the intensity of our pain.

It is so helpful, so empowering, to understand our emotional territory, how our emotions come alive, what fuels them and the colourful palette we have available to express. It is crucial to see that our emotions are a vital powerhouse of energy that needs to be acknowledged, honoured and expressed; to flow through us. When we hold back on this powerful expression, the energy gets trapped in our bodies and leads to discomforts, illnesses and emotional discomfort.

Reclaim the power of your emotions in this 7 week emotional healing series!

Who this program is for:

This program is for anyone who is ready to embark on a journey of deep emotional healing and personal transformation. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges, longing for greater clarity and peace, or simply seeking holistic tools to nurture your mind, body, and spirit, this course is designed for you.

You may resonate with this program if you:

• Feel stuck in old patterns of thought, behavior, or emotions, and yearn for a new path forward.
• Are open to exploring both spiritual and psychological dimensions of healing.
• Seek to cultivate resilience, presence, and a deeper connection with yourself and the world around you.
• Desire to integrate daily practices like breathwork, yoga, and meditation into your life for greater balance and inner harmony.
• Are committed to personal growth and willing to engage with reflective questions, journaling, and process work.
• Want to learn how to navigate your emotions with compassion, clarity, and wisdom.
• Are ready to discover the wisdom of your emotions as a powerful source of inner guidance and messaging.

This program is for those who are ready to meet themselves with honesty and compassion and embrace a healing path that nourishes the whole being—body, mind, and soul. No prior experience with breathwork, yoga, or meditation is necessary; just your willingness to explore.

What you can expect from this program:

Each week we will explore a different theme of emotional healing:

• Week 1: The Anatomy and Physiology of the Emotional Body
• Week 2: The 6 Stages of Emotions: From Commotion to Devotion

• Week 5: Real vs. False Emotions, the Ego and Victim/Tyrant Dynamics
• Week 6: Emotions and Resonance: The Healing Power of Your Voice
• Week 7: Releasing Blocked Emotions Through Tapping

Your parasympathetic nervous system is activated and you enter into a deep state of relaxation and upliftment. Breathwork trains your body and mind to be at ease, leading to emotional awareness and calm.

Each week will include:

• teachings to inspire self-awareness and inner healing
• group sharing or a guided process
• gentle spinal warm-ups, some yoga stretches, breathwork and either passive or guided meditation
• homework reflection question(s)
• a daily morning breathwork practice (recording will be sent to you)

“In meditation, healing can happen. When the mind is calm, alert and totally contented, then it is like a laser beam – it is very powerful and healing can happen.” – Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

“I have been attending Satyam’s meditation sessions for one year and they have become an important anchor in my life. Satyam is a very warm hearted and kind teacher. Her classes are helping me on so many levels of my personal spiritual growth. Now I can understand that practicing meditation means taking responsibility for myself and I am finally learning to listen and to trust my own being.”

– Nathalie

“Satyam’s Emotional Renewal taught me how to use resonance, yoga and EFT to restore my nervous system and lessen pain. The 7 week program showed me how to shine a light on beliefs and states of emotions, leading me to see challenges as opportunities. The classes also showed me how to be more in my Observer and my Authentic Self. Satyam is kind, attentive and a wonderful teacher.”

– Karen

“A concussion temporarily turned my life upside down. Satyam’s course was one of the only things that calmed down my head when it felt like it was on fire. Her friendly, non-judgmental attitude, meditation and breath work techniques helped teach me how to be more patient and kind to myself, especially while recovering.”

– Ashley

“I’ve done over 11 sessions with Satyam so far and I’m sure I will be doing many more in the future. Satyam is calm, wise & authentic. She is very insightful – some of the things I’ve learned during our sessions have made a lasting impact on the way i see myself and the world. I always left feeling so peaceful & rested. It helps that she has created such a beautiful space that makes you feel right at home! Satyam fully allows you to start exactly where you are, so don’t worry if you’re new to meditation. As someone who has been going through a challenging year, these sessions have been such a blessing. I highly recommend working with Satyam.”

– Joelle 

“I had seen Satyam at the Women’s Day Event at the Firehall and was impressed by her calmness and breath-work techniques. When I saw she was offering sessions in meditation, I grabbed three of my friends and we happily joined weekly. What an experience! It has given me insight into myself and into meditation! I would recommend these sessions to anyone, regardless of your meditation ability or non-ability! Thank you Satyam for the gift you have given us.”

– Chandi

“Satyam’s class taught me breathing techniques that I’ve been able to use right away in stressful situations in daily life. She creates a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere where I felt able to share very openly and also to learn from my fellow students.”

– Paul

“Satyam is a knowledgeable, understanding and compassionate teacher who was able to articulate the practice behind the different exercises that we were learning. I especially enjoyed the guided breathing and meditation pieces. I feel like I have become more self-aware, am able to be in the present more so and am generally more at peace with myself and others. Also, Satyam makes an amazing tea!”
