Reiki & Restorative Yoga
2025-12-02 17:45 - 18:45 | Electric Cottage Collective, 82 Pleasant St, Brunswick, ME, 04011, United States
Join Liz and Vanessa for Reiki & Restorative Yoga! Liz will guide you through a series of restorative yoga postures while Vanessa facilitates reiki (hands-on with consent, or hands-off) with students.
Restorative Yoga is meant to relax, relieve, and rejuvenate the body. Restorative postures are a little different than other styles of yoga, in that we’re not searching for a sensation in the body, but rather releasing the use of muscles altogether to experience the sensation of being fully supported. This practice utilizes lots of props to support the body allowing the muscles to soften while calming our nervous system. A restorative practice encourages a new sense of bodily awareness and introspection.
Rei – Universal and Ki – Life Force , sometimes classified as an alternative healing modality, is a practice in which the practitioner places their hands over or on a recipient for the purpose of transmitting healing energy. This healing energy is source from the universal life force energy and is conducted through the protection – going where healing is needed the most. Reiki works on all levels of a person’s being; physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual and activates the body’s innate ability to heal itself.
In the context of Liz’s restorative class, each participant will have a chance to experience hands on Reiki (with consent) provided by Vanessa Bresson. Vanessa is a reiki attuned human interested in each person’s innate ability to heal themselves, and in giving loving care to others.

Slow Flow Yoga
2025-11-27 07:30 - 08:30 | Electric Cottage Collective, 82 Pleasant St, Brunswick, ME, 04011, United States
🧘‍♀️ Slow Flow is a weekly, all-levels yoga class offered on a pay-what-you-can basis—from $0 to $75. This class is all about moving gently and intentionally, blending mindful movement with spacious pauses for breath and rest. Whether you’re new to yoga or a longtime practitioner, you’re welcome just as you are.
At ECC, we believe yoga is so much more than a stretchy workout. It’s a lifelong, spiritual practice rooted in the wisdom of Southeast Asian and African traditions—one that invites us into deeper relationship with ourselves, each other, and the world around us.
We do our best to honor yoga’s roots by weaving in teachings on self-awareness, ethics, and collective care—while keeping our classes slow, grounding, and accessible. ✨
🌱 All donations for this class go directly to our Class Scholarship Fund, which helps folks access other ECC classes and workshops. When the fund is thriving, we extend it to support local mutual aid projects too. Got an idea for where it could go next? We’d love to hear it!
💕 And just to be crystal clear: nobody will ever be turned away for lack of funds. Come as you are, and move with us in community.
