::Wisdom Wednesdays::

The full moon energy is still flowing, releasing, & resetting.

Cosmic shifts are taking place across the multiverse and yes, you're probably feeling the pull in several directions with a different kind of clarity about what will settle into place on the other side.

Remember to take time to be with yourself, stand in your own energy, reflect and arise with your own wisdom in tact.

Try a new practice or skill, whether it's taking a yoga class with a different teacher, creating with a new medium, or exploring an alternative form of meditation - one small shift creates new opportunities for growth & expansion.

💫

We've got some offerings this weekend as we close out August... Sacred Shamanic Ceremony, Unconditional Rest (a monthly restorative practice), Summer Rain Cacao Journey - space is still open for some new rituals to bring into your life!

Here for the journey, reach out if you need.

🌿 Forgiveness in Recovery 🌿

Forgiveness is a powerful act of self-compassion. It allows us to release the burdens of the past and open ourselves to healing and growth. In our journey of recovery, forgiving ourselves and others is not about condoning past actions but freeing ourselves from the weight they carry. Let this week be a time of letting go and embracing the peace that comes with true forgiveness.

Join us for our weekly meeting on Sunday from 7-8:15 pm . Let’s continue this journey together.

To plant a garden is to hope for tomorrow.

Every year the seasons change and so do we... navigating a business that is based on community is much like tending a garden.

To sew thoughts and ideas and intentions in the darkness and tend to the things that bloom, to recognize the things that don't align, to allow space for organic matter to manifest and know that each year the garden grows - it grows a little differently.

The last few years have been a wild ride holding space as we've moved out of a pandemic, a time when everything felt dead or dark or unable to grow at all... but it's been a beautiful gift to hold space for healing, for gathering, for tending our roots, for the blossoming awareness, for all the things that ebb and flow as the Light appears or disappears each season.

We're always changing, that is really the only thing we know for certain.
