Upcoming Courses
Mindfulness is the antidote for the unfocused & anxious mind.
In this 5 week course, you will discover a simple yet profound technique for practicing mindfulness meditation. You will learn how to consciously release tension from the body and mind, how to gently rest awareness on the breath, and how to incorporate mindfulness into daily life.
The benefits of meditation range from improved concentration to better sleep to less reactivity and more ease in life. At the deepest level, though, mindfulness meditation allows one to cultivate the innate gifts of the heart – natural intelligence, natural warmth and natural openness.

“Meditation 101 came at just the right time, in just the right way. Martha’s guidance- to sit, to breathe, and to be … were such a relief. I knew that no matter how I showed up, where my head was, how I felt, were all okay- and that made building a meditation practice . . . healing. Martha is a wonderful and gentle teacher, and this is a great meditation class.” – Caitlin B., Philadelphia, Researcher, 34″

Hi, I’m Martha Rogers
I am an educator, creative, and seasoned apprentice to the natural world. I have been practicing yoga, mediation and seasonal medicine for 20+ years.
I enjoy teaching others how to listen to the wisdom of their body and how to attune with nature’s cycles for harmony, creative flow & well-being.
Please join me for an upcoming workshop.
Martha cultivates a safe and healing environment. I especially appreciate her presence and attentiveness. She’s really tuned into what’s going on with you and remembers details from session to session. You don’t feel like one of many clients; you can tell that Martha cares deeply about your wellbeing
Martha creates an inviting atmosphere inspiring trust and relaxation.Her voice is soothing, touch is gently precise. Combining her vast knowledge
gained from studies in the healing arts, Martha lovingly shares this wisdom in her yoga,meditation sessions and her acupuncture treatments. I always leave her offerings feeling deep relaxation that lingers beyond the time spent in Martha’s care.
'As we attune to nature's cycles a deeper well of energy avails itself to us '
My Story
