Next Level New Year: RESET Breathwork, Cacao, and New Year Rituals

Meet Sarah Sutton at Kula for an expansive breathwork workshop to open the year in alignment and start 2026 feeling tapped in, turned on, and deeply connected to your truth! 

Time will begin with a powerful RESET breathwork session designed to connect you directly with your Spirit, intuition, and inner wisdom. You’ll be shown what desires to lean into, who you’re becoming, and what pathways are calling you forward in the year ahead.

After breathwork, you’ll sip a warm, nourishing mug of cacao and dive into a New Year activity that will help you make the absolute most out of 2026. This ritual will shift you out of "hustle" mode and into an intentionally designed year that feels rich, playful, meaningful, and alive!

What is RESET Breathwork?
RESET is a 3-part conscious connected breathing pattern used to release stored emotions and trauma in the mind and body, reset the nervous system, and create an elevated state of being. The RESET Breath Method takes you deeper than traditional Pranayama, breathing into your body and inner world, inviting more release and a state of relaxation and awareness.

R: Re-calibrate your nervous system
E: Elevate your vibration
S: Somatically release stored emotions
E: Expand your consciousness
T: Transform into your most authentic self

Do not register if you are pregnant or recently post-natal (6 weeks or less)

Reach out to Sarah before registering if you are currently experiencing or have a history of the following: Cardiovascular Disease, Angina, Heart Attack, High Blood Pressure, Glaucoma, Retinal Detachment, Osteoporosis, Significant Injuries, Recent Surgery, Severe Mental Illness (Eg. Schizophrenia), Bipolar Disorder, Major, Depressive Disorder, Seizures, Aneurysm(s)

Wear comfortable clothing and bring a yoga mat, and journal (brand new if possible) for the New Year activity. Card stock will be available if you prefer to create on paper.

Immerse yourself in recovery community at Kula for a meeting of the mind and body during Y12SR: The Yoga of 12-Step Recovery. Y12SR “connects the dots” between the ancient wisdom of yoga, the practical tools of 12-step programs, and the latest research on trauma healing and neurobiology. The cognitive and the somatic are blended into one holistic approach designed to address the physical, mental, and spiritual dis-ease of addiction.

Y12SR meetings include a 12-step-style recovery-based, discussion-style meeting guided by your peer support specialist, Andrew. After the meeting, you'll be led through a gentle yoga practice including asana (poses), pranayama (breathwork), mudra (hand gestures), and guided meditation, woven together with the Y12SR "interventions" meant to be utilized off the mat.

Y12SR is open to anyone dealing with their own addictive behavior or affected by the addictive behavior of others. All "A's," recovery paths, and the recovery-curious are welcome. Y12SR is an adjunct recovery and relapse prevention tool designed to support one's ongoing program.
