Saturday August 26th 11-4PM

Go on an exploratory self-care journey facilitated by 6 incredible practioners of Meditation and Integrative Health. Your day will include Guided Meditations, Breathwork, Yoga, Reiki, Sound Healing, Nutrition, & Journaling. You can expect a wonderful day of healing, release, & insightful self knowledge & clarity.

If you are newly curious about meditation, or are looking to broaden your current spiritual practice, we welcome you to join. For those who are looking for a day of self-care and revitalization, we hope you will join as well. You may feel challenged, elated, embraced, and even-out-of-this world, but you will find yourself supported by the group and the guidance of the energetic team.

Ayruvedic lunch/snacks and beverages will be available throughout the day. Please feel free to bring your own water or water bottle if you prefer.

​

We recommend that you wear comfortable clothing, and consider bringing a meditation cushion and a shawl, cover or whatever provides personal comfort for you.  Floor chairs, mats, extra cushions, & blankets will be available for use should you need them.
