Winter Solstice is the longest night of the year. And for thousands of years our ancestors didn't fear it. They honored it.
Because they understood something we are still learning to trust. That the darkness is not the absence of light. It is the ground. From which light returns.
In Chinese Medicine, Winter belongs to the Water element. To stillness. To essence. To the deep reservoir of potential that has been quietly gathering through the long descent of Autumn. Winter doesn't ask us to produce or perform. It asks us to rest in the knowing that the light will return.
This gathering, within the Solstice Threshold, is an invitation to settle into that knowing.
We will move through qigong specifically sequenced for the Solstice Threshold. Slow, intentional, grounded. Then we will settle onto our mats. The room goes dark. Sound moves through the stillness.
Whatever this season means to you. However you choose to mark it or not mark it. The light is yours.
What We'll Do
Qigong. Ancient movement that works directly with the body's energy channels, releasing what has been held and restoring what has been depleted.
Sound Healing. Frequencies that meet the nervous system where it is and return it, without force, to its own natural rhythm.
We leave steady.
You will leave trusting that your inner light, your unique spark, is alive. Not because the season told you. Because you sensed it yourself.
What to bring:
Comfortable clothing. A yoga mat, blanket and eye cover. Water to drink.
Cost: $40 | Advanced registration is required. This is an annual event, that sells out.
