Welcome back to our annual tradition - this year on the actual evening of Winter Solstice!
As winter's darkness envelops us, let's melt into Yoga Nidra, warmed by the glow of candlelight. In this 2-hour experience, we will:
- Connect studio and online yogis by sharing our intentions.
- Ignite a candle to tap our sense of inner light.
- Center with mindfulness, silent reflection, and journaling.
- Recline for the profound rest and reset of Yoga Nidra.
- Explore the subconscious with guided visualization.
- Rise up for for intention setting, journaling, and closing meditation.
- Reconnect our studio and online circles to sip homemade Canelazo Cider or your favorite warm beverage.
Whether tapping into New Year intentions, marking the end of 2025, or seeking a seasonal reset, this evening will support your process.
