summer solstice is an invitation to go inward and source the nourishment needed to grow and evolve. the seeds we planted in spring are ready to bloom, all we have to do is be patient and continue to nurture them.

tapping into the energetics of this day of light allows us to awaken our personal power, patience, and trust in the natural cycles and divine timing of our lives.

this is a time to bask in our own light, to allow pleasure, play, and rest be portals to realizing our dreams.

join us for a collective practice in allowing the magic of nature’s cycles to bring us home to ourselves and closer to our dreams through breath, movement and sound.
