HAPPY NEW YEAR!

We’re opening the new year with an evening designed to help you release the weight of the past and step into 2026 with clarity. This experience begins with a guided breathwork session — a powerful, active practice that supports emotional release, nervous system regulation, and deep mental reset.

After breathwork, you’ll settle into a restorative sound bath led by our musicians, letting the tones of gongs, crystal bowls, and voice support the integration of everything you’ve released. Held inside the cathedral, this gathering offers a rare moment of spaciousness and grounding at the start of the year. Many participants leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more connected to themselves. 🌌

What Is Breathwork? 💨
Breathwork is a guided, intentional breathing practice that uses specific rhythms to help the body release stored tension and emotional buildup. Unlike gentle meditation-style breathing, this technique activates the nervous system in a deliberate way, allowing stuck energy to move and creating space for clarity, calm, and emotional release.
Many participants experience tingling, warmth, waves of emotion, or a deep sense of relief as the practice unfolds. The session concludes with a cathartic group release — optional, but often profoundly freeing. 🔥

Doors open at 7pm

What to Expect ⭐️
A 20-minute guided breathwork journey
A cathartic group release (optional)

What to Bring 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️
Yoga mat or something comfortable to lie on
Blanket, pillow, or anything that helps you settle in
Water
An open mind and whatever you’re ready to let go of
