Winter Solstice Celebration w Lynn G
Saturday 12/21, 7-9pm
Join for a cozy, intentional evening on the shortest day and longest night of the year, the winter solstice. Lynn Gallagher (LGHT wellness) invites you to gather in celebration of the sun’s return and the promise of renewed light on the evening of the Winter Solstice. Together we will honor an ancient event and weave the evening with traditions and rituals in a community who wishes to create an inspired way of moving through the season of dark and cold as we await the return of spring. In winters’ magic and with the energy of the solstice, we will collaborate in a ritual with sound healing, meditation, crafts, story sharing, a “fire” ceremony and receive herbal support from the plant life that even through winter’s dormancy, connects us to the earth & each other (herbal blended tea/tinctures).
Please bring a mug for herbal tea, a blanket and pillow if you’d like to get cozy, comfortable, warm and cozy clothing (wearing colors of winter that inspire you if you’d like), a journal/pen and an open mind. Please consider bringing an object of your desire to temporarily place in the community altar (a space for us to give and receive blessings - think winter herbs and spices like cinnamon and cloves, winter plants like pine cones or evergreen leaves, crystals, or anything else that “speaks” to you).
This evening is for anyone whose curiosity is piqued by learning to incorporate ways to work with the healing energy of the darkness of winter or those who look to gather in a non-traditional holiday celebration.

Somatic Connection: a Couple’s Retreat w/ Madelana
While it is a privilege to be part of a couple, it’s also quite a demanding path to travel on in tandem. We arrive in our couple relationship with all of our personal history, beliefs, and behaviors strongly intact. Realizing that our partner is, in fact, our mirror is the highest hope we have for turning our relationship into a welcomed part of our Spirit’s (spiritual) journey. It is also the motivation to find ways to improve the “relating” part of our “relationship”. Kindness, curiosity, communication: these are among the requisite tools for success. Presence, patience and compassion must infuse our thoughts and actions if we are to co-develop a co-regulating relationship with our partner. This workshop will open the door to your hearts and minds, offering tools that can be a part of your relationship journey and potentiate its success. Please come with vulnerability and an open heart, knowing that this is a safe space and a container where all of you is welcome. This is a perfect way to grow if you have a desire to connect on a deeper level in your partnership.
Our time together will include a deep dive into the following ideas and how they play a role in relationships:
Threat Response Cycle
Feelings vs Thoughts
- Identifying the emotions we regularly experience
- Exploration of familiar feelings
- Feelings when needs are or are not met
We will share in the following exploration of the independent Self and the partnered Self through:
Group Reflection (vulnerability and authenticity welcome here!)
Writing Exploration
Physical Movement Practice
Couples Meditation + Intentional Shared Relaxation
