Who Gets to Decide?

An Unveiling the Shroud workshop with death doulas Liz Neumann and Lisa Leung-Tat

November 1st· 1pm-3pm · The Meeting Point Jamaica Plain · [Cost / free]

When someone we love is seriously ill or nearing the end of life, who has the right to speak for them? Who is allowed in the hospital room? Who makes the decisions about their care, their body, and their final wishes?

For many of us, the people who show up are not the people the law recognizes. Chosen family, partners, close friends, and community members are too often left out at the moments that matter most.

In this two-hour workshop, we’ll pull back the veil on how death and decision-making work in our society, and on who gets left in the shadows. Together we’ll explore:

How to name the people you trust to advocate for your health care

The legal tools that protect your wishes and your chosen family

How to start these conversations with the people you love

This is a warm, honest space. No experience or expertise needed, only curiosity and an open heart.


Come back to the practice

Yoga is for everyBODY. You don’t need to be flexible, fit, or experienced. You don’t need the right clothes or the right shape. You only need to show up, breathe, and let the practice meet you where you are.

When life feels heavy, the mat is a place to set it down for a while. When life feels full, it’s a place to celebrate the body that carries you. And there is something powerful about practicing alongside others, breathing in the same room, building the kind of community that holds each other up.

We keep our classes affordable because wellness should be within reach for everyone in our neighborhood. If cost is a barrier, please talk to us. We’ll find a way.

A practice rooted in possibility

Our mission has always been bigger than yoga poses.

We believe wellbeing is a birthright. We believe rest matters. We believe movement can help us reconnect with ourselves and one another. We believe wellness should feel welcoming rather than intimidating, and that healing doesn't happen in isolation.

So, yes—we are in a new chapter.

But we aren't starting over.

We are carrying forward everything that made 4 Corners Yoga Wellness meaningful in the first place, while allowing the shape of the organization to evolve.

The practice continues.

The teachers continue.

The conversations continue.

And most importantly, the community continues.

What we're building now

We are continuing to grow a network of talented, trauma-informed, culturally affirming yoga and wellness teachers who believe that everyBODY belongs.

Our offerings continue to include yoga, restorative practices, meditation, wellness workshops, community conversations, and opportunities for private and group experiences.

We are especially interested in working with:

  • Small businesses and organizations looking to bring wellness to their teams

  • Community organizations planning gatherings, workshops, or special events

  • Individuals seeking private yoga or wellness sessions

  • Groups looking for a thoughtful, accessible wellness experience

  • Organizations interested in bringing movement, rest, mindfulness, or conversation into their programming

This is one of the beautiful things about being a small organization: we can listen, respond, and create something that actually fits.

Supporting small can make a big difference

There is another part of our story we want to share openly.

Like many small nonprofits and community-based organizations, we are finding new ways to sustain the work we believe in.

We don't have a large studio overhead or a permanent classroom filled with people every day. Instead, we are building something more flexible: a community-supported ecosystem of teachers, collaborators, students, clients, and partners.

Private bookings, collaborative classes, workshops, memberships, and donations all help us keep the work moving.

When you attend a 4 Corners Yoga Wellness class, book a private session, invite us to your organization, become a member, make a donation, or simply tell someone about us—you are participating in that ecosystem.

You are helping a small, local wellness organization continue to offer accessible and culturally affirming opportunities for movement, rest, reflection, and connection.

And for that, we are grateful.

The Practice Continues

Yoga doesn’t always need a permanent address

Today, 4 Corners Yoga Wellness is a little different.

We are a small, community-rooted wellness organization without a permanent physical studio. We teach virtually, offer pop-up classes and workshops, collaborate with welcoming spaces throughout the community, and work with individuals, organizations, and groups through private and customized wellness offerings.

This model asks us to be creative—and we like that.

It means our teachers can meet people where they are. It means a yoga class can happen in a community space, a workplace, a borrowed studio, outdoors, or from the comfort of home. It means we can build relationships with other small businesses and organizations whose values intersect with ours. And it means that when you invite 4 Corners Yoga Wellness into your space, you aren't simply booking a yoga class.

You're helping create another corner of community.
