Understanding personal energy and how it impacts daily life
Simple practices to sense and support your energetic space
Gentle tools for clearing, protecting, and maintaining healthy energetic boundaries

STILLNESS: The Sacred Pause
🗓️ Sunday, February 08, 2026
5:00pm, 75 minutes, w/ Whitney
A Limited February Offering
The Sacred Pause is a gentle, intentional gathering created to help you slow down, soften, and reconnect — not through effort, but through presence.
This February, we’re opening the space for two special Sacred Pause gatherings designed as an invitation to rest, reflect, and simply be.
This is not a traditional meditation class, and it’s not a yoga flow. Instead, The Sacred Pause offers a supportive container for stillness, reflection, and quiet presence. Each gathering will include a guided grounding meditation to settle the nervous system, followed by unhurried time for journaling, silent reflection, or resting in stillness.
You are always welcome to engage in the way that feels most supportive — writing, breathing, listening, or resting. There is no pressure to participate in any one way and no expectation to share.
Held as a limited February offering, The Sacred Pause invites you to step out of the noise of daily life and into a moment of intentional pause.
✨ Open to all
✨ No meditation experience necessary
✨ Journals and blankets encouraged
✨ Come as you are
Dates: February 8 & February 15

Sound & Soul: Sound Bath & Journaling for Self Love & Discovery
🗓️ Sunday, February 22, 2026
3:30pm, 90 minutes, w/ Stephanie Thurm
Sink into a deeply nourishing experience designed to reconnect you with yourself at a gentle, unhurried pace. **Sound & Soul** is a self-love and self-discovery workshop inviting you to soften, listen inward, and explore what it means to truly care for yourself.
What to Expect
Guided Sound Bath
The experience begins with a guided sound bath, where soothing tones from crystal singing bowls, chimes, and other harmonic instruments wash over you. These vibrations help calm the nervous system, quiet mental chatter, and create space for insight and emotional release. You’ll be invited to rest comfortably, breathe deeply, and simply receive — allowing the sounds to support relaxation, clarity, and inner balance.
Reflective Journaling Practice
Following the sound bath, we’ll transition into a reflective journaling practice. With thoughtfully crafted prompts centered on self-love, values, and personal discovery, you’ll have time to translate your inner experience into words. This portion of the workshop supports honest self-expression, helping uncover patterns, desires, and truths that may be ready to emerge.
Good to Know
No prior meditation or journaling experience is needed
Come exactly as you are
All levels are welcome
This workshop is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and leave feeling grounded, inspired, and more deeply aligned with yourself.
Come as you are.
Leave with a renewed sense of compassion, clarity, and connection. 🤍
