On our mind:
Next time a potentially heated situation arises you might as yourself, is this worth my peace?

"The greates challenge is to remember that we hold the keys to our own peace"- Nischala Joy Devi, pg. 86, The Secret Power of Yoga, from her purport on Sutra 1.33: "To preserve openness of heart and calmness of mind, nurture these attitudes:
Kindess to those who are happy
Compassion for those who are less fortunate
Honor for those who embody noble qualities
Equanimity to those whose actions oppose your values"
- Yoga Sutras of Patanjali as translated by Nischala Joy Devi

Join us to honor the turning of the light this Sunday at 5pm ✨

Celebrate the Winter Solstice in a meaningful and heart-opening way. Join Petra LeBeau for a community Despacho ceremony—an Andean practice that helps us release the old, offer gratitude, and welcome the return of the light within ourselves and in the natural world.

As we gather on the darkest day of the year, we pause to honor stillness, reflection, and the quiet wisdom of winter. Together, we will create a Despacho: a beautiful offering made with flowers, seeds, sweets, and symbolic items, arranged as a mandala that carries our collective intentions. Each participant will add their own blessings, reflections, and hopes, contributing to a shared prayer bundle that honors Mother Earth and aligns us with the new cycle ahead.

Our ceremony will guide us through 3 threads of intention:

- Releasing the Old: Letting go of what no longer sustains us as we cross into a new seasonal cycle.
- Honoring the Year Behind Us: Acknowledging the experiences, lessons, and moments—large and small—that have shaped our path.
- Inviting the Return of Light: Setting grounded intentions for renewal, balance, and the growth we wish to nurture in the coming months.

Despachos originate from the Andean tradition, where they are used to restore harmony, strengthen community, and cultivate ayni—sacred reciprocity with the natural world. On the solstice, this ceremony becomes a powerful way to reconnect with nature’s rhythms and honor the turning of the wheel.

This gathering is suitable for all ages and experience levels. Come as you are.
Leave feeling centered, connected, and renewed.

Cost: $44 (All materials provided)

Join us this Saturday at 5pm for Restorative Yoga and Cacao Ceremony.

Katie and Lauryn combine ceremonial cacao, restorative yoga, and massage to invite you to melt into complete bliss.

We start this event with a cacao ceremony, which includes breathwork, meditation, a chance to connect with the group, and a wonderfully delicious hot cacao drink made with oat milk, cinnamon, salt, and honey. Cacao can offer a sense of calm and groundedness, making it a lovely precursor to your restorative yoga class. Lauryn and Katie will provide a gentle massage and assists in each restorative pose, elevating your yoga practice to the next level. Participants are encouraged to use blocks, bolsters, and blankets to support the body and mind achieve peace and rest.

This is a multifaceted event, with every detail carefully attended to make it a meaningful and restful experience. It is advised to abstain from alcohol and mind-altering drugs before partaking in cacao. Also, please note that cacao works best on an empty stomach.

Bring your favorite mug!

Cost: $44

Join us this Saturday at 2pm for a nourishing afternoon designed to help you refill your inner well through mindful movement, restorative yoga, and sound healing.

We’ll begin with a heart-centered welcome and meditation focused on the theme of Pouring Into You—honoring all those who have poured into your life as you reconnect with your own capacity to give and receive care.

Settle in with a tea meditation, savoring each sip as an act of self-compassion and remembrance. You’ll be guided through nervous system regulating skills to support your daily life and prepare for the holidays.

From there, we’ll move into Gentle Yoga to soften tension, open the body, and invite presence, followed by a deeply restorative Sound Bath to integrate and rest.

We invite you to bring your favorite mug to sip tea during our meditation.

Cost: $44

Payton Helisek

Age (if you feel like sharing):
28

How long have you been practicing yoga at terra sol?
A little over a year!

How many classes have you taken so far this year?
94

Why is your asana practice important to you? What does it mean to you?
Practicing yoga helps me to slow down and take time for myself through the craziness of the world. I’m able to shut my mind off and not think about anything else, which is typically hard for me. My body feels better than it ever has before, it’s important to me that I keep feeling great for a long time. I know I’ll be practicing yoga for my whole life!

What is a fun fact about you we may not know?
My dream in life is to open my own breakfast restaurant! I’ve worked in the restaurant industry since I was 15, it’s what I’m passionate about. I love making people happy by feeding them!

Thank you for being a ray of sol in our community, Payton!

Why is your asana practice important to you? What does it mean to you?
Yoga stretches my body in ways that it is not used to. It also calms my mind and clears my head.

What is a fun fact about you we may not know?
I got started on yoga when I was out at sea in the tropical Pacific on a research cruise. There are few options for fitness on a small working boat. Try doing yoga on a rolling ship!
