Nourish and Emerge your Mind, Body & Spirit for the Summer Solstice

Athena Dugan and Rasheeda Hastings

June 20, 2024

The Summer Solstice marks the longest day of the year with the greatest amount of light as the earth tilts towards the sun.  It is said to be a time for renewal and abundance. Experience this cosmic dance in unison with the earth and Her cycle by turning towards your inner light.

We will ease into a contemplative day by walking the labyrinth, with known or unknown intentions, in the hope of illuminating what no longer serves us and making space to embrace what is flourishing as we transition from spring to summer. We will also build in quiet time and reflection through journaling and light artwork to express what comes up.

After a healthy meal, we will close our time together by balancing our energy fields with a soothing sound bath. We will relax and ground with sounds from healing instruments such as the gong, crystal singing bowls, percussion, chimes, rattles, tuning forks, and possibly the human voice itself.  You are encouraged to let go, relax, and receive positive intentions of overall wellness. This will complete our state of spiritual harmony, and we will embrace this season of warmth and newness.

Please dress in comfortable and appropriate clothing for spending time outdoors. You may also want to wear sunblock and bug spray. We will spend most of the day outdoors, unless it is raining. In that case, we will use an indoor labyrinth and bring the sound bath indoors.

We also recommend that you bring your own mat or cushion. Craneleith has a limited amount available.
