Heart & Happiness Hour: Yoga + Herbal Mocktails with Gathered Botanicals and Amarie Soma

Friday,  February 13, 2026 4-5pm 

Ease into the weekend with a nourishing, heart opening hour designed to help you soften, connect, and unwind. This one hour happy-hour inspired class blends gentle movement, herbal wisdom, and shared enjoyment that is both grounding and celebratory.

The class will be split into two intimate groups, alternating between the upstairs yoga studio and the herbal wellness shop below. One half of the experience begins with 30 minutes of heart-opening yoga. Centered on chest stretches and shoulder openers to release tension, improve posture, foster emotional openness. A supportive flow accessible to all levels.

The other half of the experience is spent in the shop crafting a heart-centered herbal mocktail. You’ll learn about herbs traditionally used to support the emotional heart. Plants that encourage joy, ease tension, and help us feel open and connected. 

This class is an invitation to open the heart physically, emotionally, and socially. Allowing us to step into the weekend feeling nourished, relaxed, and softly uplifted.
