Pregnancy Loss Remembrance Day – Healing Yoga & Candlelight Vigil
Pregnancy Loss Remembrance Day – Healing Yoga & Candlelight Vigil
Join us in honoring Pregnancy Loss Remembrance Day with an evening of reflection, connection, and gentle movement. We will begin with a candlelight vigil to create a space of remembrance and support for anyone who has experienced pregnancy or infant loss—personally or through a loved one.
Following the vigil, we’ll move into a healing yoga flow designed to nurture the body, calm the mind, and hold space for grief, love, and hope. This all-levels class focuses on gentle, mindful movement and deep breathwork to help release tension and invite peace.
All are welcome, whether you come to move, to hold space, or simply to be in community.

What to Expect
45 minutes of Yoga Flow
Led by one of our experienced instructors, this all-levels class will help you connect with your breath, release tension, and cultivate a sense of grounded clarity. Whether you’re new to yoga or have practiced for years, you’ll feel welcome and supported.
45 minutes of Activism
After class, Indivisible Chicago Northwest will guide us through a meaningful activism activity. Together, we’ll explore practical ways to make our voices heard.
Why Yoga & Activism?
We believe that wellness isn’t just about the body—it’s also about how we engage with the world around us. Yoga teaches us to live with awareness, compassion, and courage. Activism is an extension of that practice, giving us the opportunity to turn those values into action.
By pairing mindful movement with civic engagement, we’re creating a space where community members can gather, recharge, and then channel that renewed energy toward positive change.

Parents’ Guide to Better Memories: Smartphone photography and videography
Before we even talk about lighting or camera settings, I want you to pause and remember this: you’re not just taking pictures — you’re preserving memories. The way your child squints when they laugh, the way they concentrate while building with blocks, the way they reach out to hold your hand — these are the moments that matter.
As a professional photographer and a parent myself, I can tell you this: the best images aren’t posed. They’re felt.
