SUMMARY:Living Ayurveda | Part 2: Ayurvedic Mind - Awareness as Medicine with Julie Peterson
DESCRIPTION:Living Ayurveda | Part 2: Ayurvedic Mind – Awareness as Medicine with Julie Peterson\nSeptember 11th | 5:30-7:30PM | True Nature Kiva\nTrue Nature Healing Arts\n100 N 3rd St Carbondale\, CO \nFull Series (Three Parts) $90\nIndividual Session $38 Each\nNeed-based Access Rate Available \nJoin us for one\, two or all three sessions! Register now through our ticketing page! \nSeptember 4th | 5:30pm-7:30pm | Part 1: Ayurvedic Diet – The Sacred Fire of Digestion\nSeptember 11th | 5:30pm-7:30pm | Part 2: Ayurvedic Mind – Awareness as Medicine\nSeptember 18th | 5:30pm-7:30pm | Part 3: Ayurvedic Lifestyle – Living with the Rhythm of Nature \nThis accessible and enriching series is designed for anyone looking to live with more balance\, intention\, and vitality. Whether you’re new to Ayurveda or seeking practical ways to feel more aligned in body\, mind\, and spirit\, these classes offer timeless tools that can be easily integrated into everyday life. \nEach session stands on its own and offers valuable insights — so if your schedule only allows you to attend one or two\, don’t let that deter you. Join for what you can! You’ll walk away with meaningful practices and a deeper understanding of yourself and the world around you. \nFor those ready to make a commitment to deeper learning\, we invite you to register for the full three-part series at a discounted rate. Taken together\, the classes build a well-rounded foundation in Ayurvedic living — exploring in detail Ayurvedic diet and digestive types\, Ayurvedic Mind management\, and how to create a personally balancing lifestyle in synch with natures rhythms through a holistic Ayurvedic lens. \nThis series is ideal for anyone interested in self-care and conscious living. Yoga teachers and wellness professionals will find it complements their training and provides tools they can apply personally and professionally. \nPart 1: Ayurvedic Diet – The Sacred Fire of Digestion\nThis class will cover the art and wisdom of Ayurvedic eating. Proper eating is akin to practicing daily fire sacrifice. We select\, mix and then offer food to the sacred fire of digestion. Why is this fire sacred? Well\, it is what turns the outer world\, all that we take in\, into self. Outer transforms to inner\, this fire maintains our life. Like any good ritual there is proper timing\, set and setting\, ingredients and perhaps most important … intention. We will unpack the concept of agni\, the 3 clinical types of agni\, and we’ll learn to determine which type we\, or our clients have. Herbal remedies and specific practices to balance each of the 3 types will be covered\, as well as details on proper food combining. Kindle the sacred on a regular basis by turning each meal into a lovely ritual of self-creation and self-care. \nPart 2: Ayurvedic Mind – Awareness as Medicine\nThis class will explore how Ayurveda views the mind and emotions. Ayurveda is a truly wholistic system of medicine as it addresses\, in detail\, how to have sustained wellbeing not just in the body\, but in the mind and spirit as well. It is not common in Western culture to manage the health of the mind in an ongoing regular way. It is only when more severe imbalances are experienced that we seek professional help. This leaves a giant gap. It is akin to never brushing your teeth and then only seeing a dentist when you get a cavity. Mental hygiene is a very important concept in Ayurveda. The second class of this series will delve into the unique way that Ayurveda views the mind and emotions. We will unfold how the mind and emotions effect the doshas and how the doshas and the qualities of our environment effect the mind. Indispensable mind management and mental hygiene practices will be shared. \nPart 3: Ayurvedic Lifestyle – Living with the Rhythm of Nature\nJoin us to explore how the elements speak to us\, so we may live in greater rhythm with nature! The ancient rishis who brought us the system of Ayurveda\, looked deeply into the foundational causes of imbalance in regards to health. They observed that 20 qualities of Nature could cause imbalance and likewise could be applied therapeutically to maintain good health. These 20 qualities are referred to as the gunas. Understanding the 20 gunas is fundamental to Ayurveda\, so much so that they are often referred to as the “language of Ayurveda”. These qualities are derived from the 5 elements; earth\, water\, fire\, air and space and therefore could also be considered the language of the elements themselves. It is due to the qualities of the elements that we are influenced by climate\, season\, time of day\, food and herbs. All life on earth\, all substances\, as well as thoughts and actions have these 20 qualities and once you understand them\, the entire manifest world can be utilized as medicine. This understanding greatly simplifies Ayurvedic philosophy and is immediately practical to layperson and practitioner alike. Let’s learn how the elements speak to us\, so we may live in rhythm with nature. \nMeet Your Host | Julie Peterson\nJulie is an herbalist\, an Ayurvedic Practitioner\, and the founder of Singing Springs Botanicals. Through Singing Springs\, she offers a curated line of handcrafted herbal remedies that artfully integrate Ayurvedic and Western Herbal traditions. Julie graduated from the Rocky Mountain Center for Botanical Studies in 2002 and from the Ayurvedic Institute (Dr. Vasant Lad’s school) in 2009. A perennial student in both these fields she continues learning with Dr. Robert Svaboda\, Acharya Shunya\, Vaidya Bharat and Dr. Zach Bush among others. Outside of professional realms\, Julie can most often be found tending her organic gardens on a small piece of land in the Uncompagre Valley. When the gardens aren’t in need\, she is roaming the San Juan mountains with a heart full of curiosity for deepening relations with all the ranges magic\, through foraging\, hiking\, skiing and climbing.

SUMMARY:Concentric Recovery Monthly Meetings
DESCRIPTION:Community Offering | Please register online for this in person event. \nJoin us\, in community\, every third Tuesday at True Nature in Carbondale\, as we combine physical practice with prompt-based discussion and connection around the central questions of addiction and recovery\, with a focus on its social and spiritual dimensions. \nWhat if addiction were a call? An opportunity? An open doorway through which we could pass into a deeper and more participatory version of our lives? \nFrom screens\, to substances\, to work\, to sex- there is no shortage of opportunities to tune out of that which troubles us into a world of temporary ease and distraction. For many of us\, the very things that help us avoid pain become problems of their own. This is the basic cycle of addiction\, and it is pervasive in the world today. \nNo prior experience necessary. All bodies and levels are welcome.* \nConcentric Recovery meetings are for people of all ages who:\nExperience mild to moderate addiction(s)* (This program is not a great fit for those experiencing severe addiction)**\nAre affected by addiction in the life of someone close to them\nAre willing to learn more about addiction and recovery\nAre willing to explore new tools and methods for moving through the negative effects of addiction\nAre curious about the social and spiritual dimensions of addiction \n*Addiction is a chronic condition characterized by compulsive engagement in rewarding stimuli (such as substances or behaviors) despite adverse consequences.\n**Severe addiction is characterized by continuing behavior despite serious physical\, psychological\, social\, and/or legal repercussions. \nDavis Cowles is the Program Lead and head facilitator for Concentric Recovery. He teaches yoga and breathwork for people in recovery\, and is walking through the doorway of addiction himself. Learn more about Davis at our ticketing/RSVP page. \nThe Concentric Recovery program offering is an educational initiative of the Connection is the Medicine Foundation. To learn more about our mission-driven work\, the foundation\, other programming experiences\, and our founders\, please visit www.connectionisthemedicine.com.

SUMMARY:Living Ayurveda | Part 3: Ayurvedic Lifestyle - Living with the Rhythm of Nature with Julie Peterson
DESCRIPTION:Living Ayurveda | Part 3: Ayurvedic Lifestyle – Living with the Rhythm of Nature with Julie Peterson\nSeptember 18th | 5:30-7:30PM | True Nature Kiva\nTrue Nature Healing Arts\n100 N 3rd St Carbondale\, CO \nFull Series (Three Parts) $90\nIndividual Session $38 Each\nNeed-based Access Rate Available \nJoin us for one\, two or all three sessions! Register now through our ticketing page! \nSeptember 4th | 5:30pm-7:30pm | Part 1: Ayurvedic Diet – The Sacred Fire of Digestion\nSeptember 11th | 5:30pm-7:30pm | Part 2: Ayurvedic Mind – Awareness as Medicine\nSeptember 18th | 5:30pm-7:30pm | Part 3: Ayurvedic Lifestyle – Living with the Rhythm of Nature \nThis accessible and enriching series is designed for anyone looking to live with more balance\, intention\, and vitality. Whether you’re new to Ayurveda or seeking practical ways to feel more aligned in body\, mind\, and spirit\, these classes offer timeless tools that can be easily integrated into everyday life. \nEach session stands on its own and offers valuable insights — so if your schedule only allows you to attend one or two\, don’t let that deter you. Join for what you can! You’ll walk away with meaningful practices and a deeper understanding of yourself and the world around you. \nFor those ready to make a commitment to deeper learning\, we invite you to register for the full three-part series at a discounted rate. Taken together\, the classes build a well-rounded foundation in Ayurvedic living — exploring in detail Ayurvedic diet and digestive types\, Ayurvedic Mind management\, and how to create a personally balancing lifestyle in synch with natures rhythms through a holistic Ayurvedic lens. \nThis series is ideal for anyone interested in self-care and conscious living. Yoga teachers and wellness professionals will find it complements their training and provides tools they can apply personally and professionally. \nPart 1: Ayurvedic Diet – The Sacred Fire of Digestion\nThis class will cover the art and wisdom of Ayurvedic eating. Proper eating is akin to practicing daily fire sacrifice. We select\, mix and then offer food to the sacred fire of digestion. Why is this fire sacred? Well\, it is what turns the outer world\, all that we take in\, into self. Outer transforms to inner\, this fire maintains our life. Like any good ritual there is proper timing\, set and setting\, ingredients and perhaps most important … intention. We will unpack the concept of agni\, the 3 clinical types of agni\, and we’ll learn to determine which type we\, or our clients have. Herbal remedies and specific practices to balance each of the 3 types will be covered\, as well as details on proper food combining. Kindle the sacred on a regular basis by turning each meal into a lovely ritual of self-creation and self-care. \nPart 2: Ayurvedic Mind – Awareness as Medicine\nThis class will explore how Ayurveda views the mind and emotions. Ayurveda is a truly wholistic system of medicine as it addresses\, in detail\, how to have sustained wellbeing not just in the body\, but in the mind and spirit as well. It is not common in Western culture to manage the health of the mind in an ongoing regular way. It is only when more severe imbalances are experienced that we seek professional help. This leaves a giant gap. It is akin to never brushing your teeth and then only seeing a dentist when you get a cavity. Mental hygiene is a very important concept in Ayurveda. The second class of this series will delve into the unique way that Ayurveda views the mind and emotions. We will unfold how the mind and emotions effect the doshas and how the doshas and the qualities of our environment effect the mind. Indispensable mind management and mental hygiene practices will be shared. \nPart 3: Ayurvedic Lifestyle – Living with the Rhythm of Nature\nJoin us to explore how the elements speak to us\, so we may live in greater rhythm with nature! The ancient rishis who brought us the system of Ayurveda\, looked deeply into the foundational causes of imbalance in regards to health. They observed that 20 qualities of Nature could cause imbalance and likewise could be applied therapeutically to maintain good health. These 20 qualities are referred to as the gunas. Understanding the 20 gunas is fundamental to Ayurveda\, so much so that they are often referred to as the “language of Ayurveda”. These qualities are derived from the 5 elements; earth\, water\, fire\, air and space and therefore could also be considered the language of the elements themselves. It is due to the qualities of the elements that we are influenced by climate\, season\, time of day\, food and herbs. All life on earth\, all substances\, as well as thoughts and actions have these 20 qualities and once you understand them\, the entire manifest world can be utilized as medicine. This understanding greatly simplifies Ayurvedic philosophy and is immediately practical to layperson and practitioner alike. Let’s learn how the elements speak to us\, so we may live in rhythm with nature. \nMeet Your Host | Julie Peterson\nJulie is an herbalist\, an Ayurvedic Practitioner\, and the founder of Singing Springs Botanicals. Through Singing Springs\, she offers a curated line of handcrafted herbal remedies that artfully integrate Ayurvedic and Western Herbal traditions. Julie graduated from the Rocky Mountain Center for Botanical Studies in 2002 and from the Ayurvedic Institute (Dr. Vasant Lad’s school) in 2009. A perennial student in both these fields she continues learning with Dr. Robert Svaboda\, Acharya Shunya\, Vaidya Bharat and Dr. Zach Bush among others. Outside of professional realms\, Julie can most often be found tending her organic gardens on a small piece of land in the Uncompagre Valley. When the gardens aren’t in need\, she is roaming the San Juan mountains with a heart full of curiosity for deepening relations with all the ranges magic\, through foraging\, hiking\, skiing and climbing.

Together\, we’ll explore how ambition and self-care can coexist—and how honoring your authentic needs is the ultimate act of strength. \n2:00 PM – Strength in Flow: Breaking the “Good Girl” MythFor too long\, women have been conditioned to be agreeable\, accommodating\, and “good”—even at the cost of their true selves.

This closing experience will leave you renewed\, inspired\, and ready to step boldly into your authentic self. \nIf a scholarship would help make this event accessible for you\, please reach out to us at info@headq.org \n					\n									REGISTER

SUMMARY:Mountain Heart Men’s Ceremony 2025
DESCRIPTION:Overview:\nThe Mountain Heart Men’s Ceremony is a 3-day immersive gathering for men ready to reconnect with purpose\, power\, and presence. Held at the sacred lands of 13 Moons Ranch in Carbondale\, Colorado—from 5:00pm Friday\, September 26 to 4:00pm Sunday\, September 28—this transformational weekend invites men of all ages to come together in brotherhood\, healing\, and remembrance.\nSet at the base of Mount Sopris—known by the Ute people as Wemagooah Kazuhchich\, meaning “Ancient Mountain Heart Sits There”—this gathering weaves together ancestral wisdom and modern men’s work to meet the needs of our time.\nWhy It Matters:\nMen today are hungry for something real. Not more distraction or pressure—but a place to lay down the armor and rise in grounded strength. Mountain Heart is that place: where men return to the fire\, the river\, the breath\, the heart\, and each other.\nThis is a gathering for fathers and sons\, leaders and seekers\, the grief-stricken and the grateful. It’s a rite of passage into deeper masculinity—rooted in connection\, authenticity\, and sacred responsibility.\nWhat’s Included:\n3 days of facilitated ceremony\, embodiment\, and connection\nLocally sourced\, nourishing meals (Friday dinner through Sunday lunch)\nSacred sweat lodge and fire ceremonies\nLive music\, drumming\, and river plunges\nConscious communication and emotional leadership tools\n2 nights of camping on powerful healing land\nA multigenerational\, brotherly container to grow and heal\nWho It’s For:\nThis gathering is open to men of all identities and backgrounds. Young men 14+ are encouraged to attend with a trusted guardian. Whether you’re navigating a major life transition like partnership or fatherhood; seeking connection\, clarity\, or confidence; or simply feeling that inner call to be part of something more real and authentic—this gathering is for you.\nFacilitators:\nThe ceremony is co-led by a powerful team of guides\, artists\, and stewards including Kyle Jason Leitzke\, Dustin Eli\, Anders Carlson\, Davis Cowles\, David James Smallwood\, and Eric Baumheimer.
