Solstice Ceremony

A half-day retreat celebrating Summer Solstice at the beautiful Alderwood Farm. Movement/Yoga, Tea Ceremony, Intuitive exercises + more!
About this Event

Summer Solstice is an auspicious time to gather + be in a personal practice of reflection and expansion.

We gather to honour and welcome what is coming alive, or blooming within ourselves and our lives.

Sara Jade of Radiance and Ritual guides a half-day retreat bringing ritual, movement, kriya, meditation + connection together to create a Solstice Ceremony where you will have the opportunity to witness where you are, celebrate how far you have come + set your compass to what lights you up.

Soaking up the beauty of Bowen Island, an outdoor Cha Dao Ceremony will be offered (weather permitting *beautiful space indoors if we need to re-locate); experience the slow and reverent service of Tea shared with intentionality, involving the elements, honouring nature, and receptivity.

We will also tend the altar of our earth body through a movement practicel; Emergent somatic kundalini yoga is a devotional modality utilizing breath, rhythm, repetition, music/sound to provide an expeireince of inner trust and self-sanctuary.

Opportunity for creative reflection, wild writing and intuitive card pulling will also be shared.

Weaving with the spirit of the sacredness of Solstice, the connection of community, the beauty of great nature + the intuitive magic of womenhood - we welcome you to retreat and recalibrate for this half-day event that will be both soul-nourishing and expansive.

Some snacks, tea and all workshop materials are provided.

Participants also receive a special Inner Moon Guide created by local island artist @ Anja Jane

*ferries, transport and meals not included.

This Summer Solstice come close to your Self. Acknowledge your growth, fill your cup and spend time in the kinship of other women + creators.

Space is intimate + limited.
