a day of practice, contemplation, and community
from within the comfort of your home
Solstice Fire Ceremony
Friday, December 20
8pm EST
*Registration for the Fire Ceremony is now closed.
Join me in ceremony as we descend into the depths of the Solstice — at 4:19am EST Saturday, the northern hemisphere will be at its farthest away from the Sun.
I will lead our ceremony outdoors, here in the Northeastern Woodlands of Virginia, making a fire at the local fire pit. We will begin by gathering and sharing notes on our respective paths. Then we will engage in some ceremonial parallel processing: I’ll be moving through ritual practices in my space, which you will be invited to creatively interpret through the space and materials around you.
This event will NOT be recorded.
Morning Sound & Mantra
Saturday, December 21
8am-9am EST
The first Sun of the expanding days will rise during our session. Let’s celebrate the day with the nourishment of sound. I’ll guide a combination of toning, chanting, and listening practices to invite catharsis, clarity, support, and gratitude.
*a recording of this practice will be emailed to all registrants.
Registration is $10.
Movement & Stillness Practice
Saturday, December 21
10am-12pm EST
Enjoy a weave of unwinding techniques, asana (postural practice) and vinyasa (breath-guided movement) as a prelude to seated breathing (pranayama) and meditation (samyama). Some experience with yoga practice is recommended.
*a recording of this practice will be emailed to all registrants.
