Owen Ware (PhD), Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy.

Owen is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy at U of T. His approach to mindfulness focuses on the cultivation of self-care, personal growth, and community building. He is also a certified yoga instructor and teaches meditation and yoga classes that are designed to create a safe, relaxing, and welcoming space for both beginners and regular practitioners.

Angelica Rao, Yoga Teacher ~ Reiki Practitioner

Angelica is certified yoga teacher who is passionate about sharing a yoga practice that promotes peace of mind, connectedness, embodiment and healing. By creating and holding a safe space, she invites students to connect with their breath, the present moment and whatever they are feeling, experiencing, or working through.
Angelica is also a Masters of Social Work student at University of Toronto. She plans on integrating yoga, mindfulness, and somatic healing into her clinical practice.

Angelica will guide you through a nourishing yin yoga practice, while Owen bathes the room with the healing vibrations of crystal bowls, hand pans, and other sound instruments. Allow yourself to slow down and sink into a deep practice of stillness and rest, and witness the body's ability to heal itself when you move from a state of doing to a state of being.

As part of our Self-Care Saturday Retreat, please also take a moment to fill-out our general registration (this will allow you access to many other drop-in activities and lunch!).
We look forward to having you join us October 15th from 10-2:30PM for a fun filled day of activities!
