Spinal Release Yoga (ŚRY)

It may look like “restorative yoga,” but it goes far beyond. Using props and precise angles, this practice gently and dynamically decompresses your spine from its root to its crown. Your spine is the body’s central axis, a channel of consciousness, and a container of karma, so the effects are deep and multidimensional: physical healing, life transformation, and inner awakening. There are no mats, no workouts, and no sun salutations, just advanced yet accessible spinal release, ideal for those recovering from injury or strain caused by other forms of yoga.

Preserving Tradition and Wisdom

At Soma Ritual, we are deeply committed to preserving the rich traditions and timeless wisdom of yoga and holistic practices. Each offering is designed to honor these ancient roots while making them accessible to modern practitioners. By holding these traditions intact, we aim to provide a space where the essence of these teachings can be deeply felt and authentically experienced. This balance ensures that the integrity of the practice remains whole, allowing its transformative power to be passed on with respect and reverence.

A Message from Lauren

The vision behind Soma Ritual stems from a desire to create a sanctuary for holistic well-being. Life’s complexities often leave us feeling fragmented, and this space was born from a deep calling to help others rediscover their wholeness. Through yoga, mindfulness, and meaningful connection, I wanted to offer tools and experiences to help you feel grounded, empowered, and at peace.
