Yoga In The Garden

Saturday, August 26 9:00 - 11:00am
Led by Deidra O’Loughlin, M.A., LPC, RYT-200 (she/her)

In The Garden are a series of workshops in the Empowered Spaces Community Garden that explore integrative justice driven approaches to embodiment, mental health, and wellness, both individually and collectively.

Join us for Yoga In The Garden on August 26, 9:00-11:00am with Deidra O'Loughlin (she/her).

From 9:00 - 9:30 am join us for a kid-friendly, community yoga class in the Empowered Spaces Community Garden, and then we will have time to harvest in the garden.

These workshops are free to our community garden members, and donation based to the larger community - pay what you can - if you can. 100% of all donations go to supporting the garden and our food share program with Jamaa Birth Village. Donations can be made at the workshop, or via Venmo or Paypal. 

Sign up here to join us!

The Empowered Spaces Community Garden is an organic gardening cooperative dedicated to quality food access for all, embodied healing and wellness education, equitable and empowering community, and anti-racist solidarities. Through cooperative farming and community partnerships, we seek to create locally-based, environmentally sustainable, trauma-informed and justice-driven modes of connection, resiliency, and interdependence. 

Meet Deidra!

Deidra O’Loughlin, LPC, RYT-200 (she/her) will be your movement guide.  Deidra is a 200-hour certified yoga instructor as well as a psychotherapist in private practice in Clayton.  Her work as a therapist enriches her work as a yoga instructor as she is trauma-aware, attuned to her students’ needs and she makes the yoga space feel containing and supportive.  Deidra recognizes the power of a yoga practice to help people with histories of trauma, those with anxiety or depression, and people who experience oppression in any way; as a result, she is passionate about facilitating classes specifically aimed at helping folks with these struggles (re)connect with their bodies in a safe way.
