Full Moon + Lunar Eclipse Soundbath
Tuesday, March 3
10 spots | $55

Eclipses tend to surface what’s been quietly building. Instead of pushing through it, we’re creating space to pause. Join us for a restorative evening of guided reflection, breathwork, and immersive sound to support nervous system regulation and intentional release.

Spots are intentionally limited.
Reserve yours through the link in bio.

It makes sense if you’ve felt overwhelmed lately.
We are witnessing a lot.

Violence. Rollbacks of rights. Harm to bodies and land.
And a constant stream of information telling us to keep up and keep moving.

Our nervous systems weren’t built for this pace.
If you’ve felt frozen, numb, exhausted, or irritable — that isn’t weakness.
That’s protection.

But we can’t show up for the world we want if we’re completely shut down.

So we thaw gently.
Move your body.
Call someone you trust.
Use your voice.
Make something with your hands.
Step outside and remember you belong to something bigger than the feed.

Caring for your nervous system is not disengagement.
It’s what makes sustained courage possible.
The world may be on fire —
and still, we are the ones carrying the water.

Stay present.

We enjoyed spending time with the Beverly /Morgan Park community at the health and wellness fair - we made hand felted grounding stones with folks that stopped by our booth. So many varied and beautifully unique creations came from this moment of slowing down and intentional making!

See you all next week- stop by our booth to make "grounding stones" and take a moment for creativity!

An embodied practice for two. ✨

As we move through seasons of change, it’s common to reach for resolutions—ways to “fix” or improve ourselves somewhere down the line. But what if growth didn’t require harshness?

This reflection explores the difference between resolutions and intentions, and how choosing presence can become a way of living rather than a goal to achieve.

You don’t need to fix yourself before you’re allowed to live fully.
Wholeness isn’t a destination—it’s something we experience in the present moment.
