Anahata’s Purpose

10/28/2025

We are missing all of this! Missing this energy!
Missing the mornings that started with coffee and connection, the nights that ended with music and meaning, and every wild, beautiful moment in between.
The Anahata's Purpose story continues — and you’re all still a part of it.

✨ Day One of Anahata’s Purpose is officially in the books! ✨
We danced, we played, we dove deep into the magic of community. And yes… we might’ve made a deal with Dionysus along the way 🍇🔥

But here’s the best part: it’s not too late to join us. The weekend has only just begun, and there’s still so much waiting for you—music, workshops, connection, and a whole lot of joy.

Come hungry.
Come holy.
Come unholy.

Dionysus summons you TONIGHT to Anahata’s Purpose: Festival Retreat 2025 — where workshops, music, and community gather under one ecstatic feast. 🌙

In a world that punishes authenticity & demands palatability, The Deal with Dionysus invites you to make a bold exchange: trade obedience for ecstasy —if you dare.
