The Winter Solstice is the shortest day and longest night of the year. It is a celebration of the rebirth of the Sun's active cycle. It can be a time for naming our visions and dreams that we have been incubating in the darkest part of the year. With the return of the active outward energy that the sun brings our personal seeds, plans and ideas can slowly begin to manifest.

This 3-hour program will be co-facilitated virtually over Zoom by Lila Danis and Mandy Brinkley.

• Gentle Mindful Movement (standing, seated or visualized)

• Guided Rest with Sound

• Breathwork (to help calm and balance the nervous system)

• Guided Visual Imagery Meditation
