A gentle community gathering exploring breath, presence, and the foundations of Tantra


Alice Keck Memorial Garden – 11:00 - 12:30

10:45 AM – Arrival & Grounding

Guests are invited to arrive a few minutes early to settle in. We’ll begin by finding our space, setting intentions, and taking a few quiet breaths together beneath the trees.

11:00 AM – Opening Circle & Introduction

Julia will offer a brief overview of the practice — what classical Tantra is (and isn’t), and how mindfulness and nervous system awareness form the foundation of this lineage.

11:15 AM – Gentle Movement

We will engage in some gentle movement to prepare the body and mind to sit in Meditation.

11:30 AM – Embodied Mindfulness Meditation

We’ll explore gentle breathing techniques to calm and balance the nervous system, cultivating steadiness and presence within,Aand finish with a seated or reclining meditation, guided to help you connect with sensation, awareness, and the quiet rhythm of your inner landscape.

12:00 PM – Reflection & Community Connection

Space for journaling, sharing reflections, or simply being together in mindful silence.

12:20 PM – Closing Mantra & Gratitude

We’ll close with a simple mantra and intention for peace — carrying the calm cultivated in circle back into daily life.

12:30 PM – Farewell & Tea

Stay for a few minutes of tea, conversation, and connection with community members.
