Yoga for 12 Step Recovery

You are invited to embody the teachings of the 12-Step Recovery Model. This model originated with Alcoholics Anoynmous, and can serve anyone working through addiction recovery. With the addition of hatha yoga, you get the chance to feel teachings like surrender, inner wisdom, and compassion within your own body.

Y12SR is for ANYONE seeking support to navigating their own addiction OR other’s addictions
Y12SR gets that addiction isn’t limited to substances but comes in many flavors, including relationships, sex, eating disorders, exercise, social media…. ALL places where we get lost are supported here.
This is an open and inclusive group.

Yoga 4 Recovery consists of a 45 minute recovery meeting that is open to all pathways of recovery. Whether your recovery is from alcohol, opioids, food, relationships, gaming, etc..., whether you follow an abstinence based program or harm-reduction, whether it is your own addiction or the addiction of others that you're struggling with, you get to define your recovery and this group is here to support you in that process. This meeting will be followed by a 45 minute trauma-informed yoga practice open to all skill levels that will include breathwork, gentle movement, and guided meditation. This is an open and inclusive group.

This group is donation based, no one is turned away for inability to pay. Donations can be made online by clicking the donate button below, or in cash at the studio. Donations support the ability to keep this meeting as an ongoing resource for the community.
