Host It Your Way Saturday!

Maybe it's an event, a workshop or a retreat!

Or maybe, just maybe, it's more special, more heartfelt, more memorable, like a wedding.

Whatever it is, we are here to make it happen.

“This year stretched me—in ways I never saw coming.”

From paddling on sacred water to plunging into icy stillness.

From gathering mullein for my mother’s pneumonia to navigating hours between my aging parents.

From collaborating with incredible yoga leaders to walking through grief, growth, and global adventures.

✨2025 was a labyrinth of its own. But here I stand—grounded, grateful, and still dreaming.

Wales softened me.
Italy awakened me.
Ohio continues to hold me.

And in 2026, the vision gets deeper: a sacred labyrinth. A walk back to self. A call for aligned community.

🎙️ What did this year teach you?
🌀 What will you carry forward?
📍Leave a word that sums up your 2025 below…
👇 I’d love to witness your journey too.

Together they create that white magic blanket in . Image courtesy of NOAA.

This year’s winds brought growth, challenges, and unexpected gifts. I honored the ritual of reflecting on what taught me, then set clear intentions and goals for the year ahead — a practice that feels deeply rewarding.

Thank you, , for the beautiful journal that made this process possible and allowed me to share it with our community.

Here’s to wholehearted growth and intention-setting together.

There's nothing more magical than women supporting women. Especially in times of darkness. Women in community can bring light to the darkest days.

I am grateful of the support of women with intentions of bringing the greatest good to our community and to the world.

It's not too late to gift a session to someone you know needs supportive women. Gift cards available on the website.

Embrace Light:
Light candles, lanterns, or gather around a bonfire to symbolize the return of light and warmth.

Connect with Nature:
Decorate with evergreens, pinecones, and holly, or make birdseed ornaments for wildlife, connecting to the outdoors during the darkest time.

Enjoy a Solstice Meal:
Prepare hearty, seasonal foods like root vegetable stew, spiced breads, or roasted nuts, often with sun-themed shapes or colors.

Reflect & Journal:
Use the quiet time for introspection, writing down memories, reflecting on the past season, and setting intentions or goals for the coming light.

Watch the Sunrise:
Stay up to witness the dawn on the solstice or the day after, celebrating the sun's return with a warm drink and a mindful moment.

If you missed the chance to celebrate with us this weekend, we are extending the soundbath to celebrate "Valentines Day" with a heart opening experience. This event is already half sold, and can make an amazing Christmas gift for someone you love.
