Summer Solstice - A Celebration of Being Alive
Description
Summer Solstice — A Celebration of Being Alive
An evening of breath, movement, cold immersion, cacao and connection at The Living Grove.
As the longest day of the year unfolds, we gather to celebrate the extraordinary experience of being human.
To feel. To move. To breathe. To soften. To explore what it means to be fully alive.
Set amongst the trees at The Living Grove, this 2½-hour gathering invites you into an embodied exploration of sensation, emotion, expression and presence.
Through music, drumming, movement and guided breathwork, we'll create space to notice what lives within us — to explore intensity and tenderness, holding and letting go, deepening and softening.
We'll then move into an optional ice bath experience, exploring our relationship with sensation, choice and the unfamiliar. Not about endurance or pushing through but about listening to the body and discovering what becomes possible through presence.
As the evening light softens, we'll gather with warm, handmade herbal cacao, sharing a moment of reflection, connection and celebration.
There is no particular way you need to feel, move or experience this evening. Curiosity is enough.
