Hello Heart Center Family,
Thank you so much for supporting our Community Beautification Initiative with your hearts! I was able to present at the White Center Business Association town hall with Councilmember Mosqueda and her staff last week. She was excited about supporting our desire for greenspace and connected us with the leadership that is overseeing the development of a pocket park in White Center. Let's make this happen! If you are in District 8, please support this initiative in August, and vote to secure the funding for this wonderful project. There are flyers on the coffee table if you need more information.
We are also thrilled about our upcoming Ayurveda workshop August 2nd! Come join us to learn about caring for your body for health and healing! Also, the 8-8 Lionsgate event will be epic; we will explore intuitive movement painting a 24' canvas on the floor, a cacao ceremony, and so much creativity!
We are so grateful for each of you and excited to see our community grow. It’s wonderful to welcome new faces and familiar ones alike.

Yin Yoga for Veterans and First Responders
Sunday, July 26
1:30 to 3 pm
led by Doris
$20
This class offers a quiet, supportive space for veterans and first responders to slow down, release tension, and reconnect with their bodies. Yin yoga uses gentle, long-held poses to target the deep connective tissues of the body while calming the nervous system. This meditative practice can help reduce stress, improve sleep, and support the release of physical and emotional tension often carried from demanding work and life experiences. No prior yoga experience is needed, just come as you are.
Doris is a certified EMDR therapist, specializing in trauma and anxiety. She is also a certified yoga teacher with additional certification in Therapeutic Yoga for Trauma and is a trauma-informed somatic yin yoga teacher. Her 29 years of experience as a therapist brings a unique perspective to her yoga teaching, allowing her to create a safe and supportive space for her students to embark on their own paths of self-discovery, healing, and empowerment through the practice.

So many of us are living with quiet hormonal imbalances, feeling tired all the time, fatigue that doesn’t lift, mood swings that come out of nowhere, sleep that won’t regulate, digestion that’s unpredictable, cycles that feel off, a sense that the body is working harder than it should, or unexplained weight loss or gain.
Most people never learn that the endocrine system is deeply responsive to breath, movement, stress patterns, foods, and daily habits — and that it can be supported naturally.
Through targeted kriyas, breath practices, meditation, and deep relaxation, we’ll work directly with the glands that influence energy, metabolism, mood, and reproductive health. You’ll learn how the nervous system and the HPA axis shape hormonal balance, and how ayurveda offers clear, practical tools to support long‑term glandular health.
If your body has been asking for balance, clarity, or a reset, this retreat and class series offer direct, accessible ways to support your endocrine health from the inside out.
Led by Shabadrang Bandhana Kaur Khalsa, 200‑hr YTT in Hatha, Vinyasa, and Kundalini Yoga, and a Master’s student in Ayurveda & Integrative Medicine.

First thing's first: What's Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese technique founded in the intention of sharing life force energy (The frequency of Love) for the highest good. It includes many benefits including stress reduction, relaxation, and promotes healing. As a Reiki Master and teacher, my intention is not just to teach you a technique, but to help you reconnect with the innate intelligence and powerful healer that already resides within you. In this class, we learn to practice from the heart and with deep, coherent intention. Reiki is not a religion, there is no hierarchy, and there is no dogma attached to it. Reiki is not dependent on intellectual capacity or spiritual development. It’s available to everyone. In its last century of being taught formally, thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds have enjoyed its benefits.

About Kaila: I'm Kaila Hall, the founder of Freqs of Love, a holistic wellness practice in Seattle, WA. I am a certified Reiki Master, sound practitioner, intuitive healer, creative spirit, and former corporate dweller turned energy worker and space holder. For years, I lived in the rhythm of overextending, poor boundaries, and burnout: long hours, high pressure, and little space to feel. I thought I was doing everything right on the outside, but I felt completely disconnected from my inner world. I found Reiki and Sound Healing at the right time. I remembered something through this work that I had entirely forgotten: my healing doesn’t come from fixing, chasing, or avoiding: it comes through inner connection and deepening my compassion. I've found my spark again in softening, being present, and letting myself be seen.
Today, I hold space for others on their own return. For the givers who forget to receive, for the caregivers, the busy minds, and the curious. I believe deeply in the body’s innate intelligence and the truth that to see the light, there must be darkness. And in both, we are whole: As above, so below.
