Join us for our annual tradition... Let's come together to use our collective positivity to call in abundance, prosperity, and serenity in the New Year!
We'll start with grounding ourselves with a brief meditation and intention setting. Then we'll take a few moments to reflect on our previous year and bid it adieu - by writing down elements we want to let go of from the past year and then BURNING THEM with some sage and incense. We'll thank them for their lessons and return them to the earth to create new growth!
After we have let the old year go & cleansed ourselves... we'll settle into creating colorful collages to guide us through the next. The practice is to let go of what we think we want, broaden our horizons, and hunt through magazines to see what the Universe provides to inspire! Be as general or specific as you like.
Bring in any magazines you have; we have plenty, and, the more magazines we have the better, so start hunting now - ask your doctor's offices or salon if you can grab their old issues off the table and bring 'em in!
Looking for dancer pictures? Traditionally magazines do not have many great images of dancers (certainly not belly dancers), so if you want that to be part of your vision board, we encourage you to find some images online and print them in advance and bring them in. Extras are always welcome!
We will have some scissors and glue; and provide the boards to those who pre-register. Extra scissors always appreciated.
Snacks welcome, bring some bubbly and chocolate to share if you like! This project is best done spread out on the floor, bring a cushion so you can be comfortable.
Space limited, so please reserve your spot today!
By Donation, $15 - $45
Pre-register and then pay at the door, cash or credit accepted (but please have a card on file to use if you use credit).
Looking forward to manifesting an incredible 2025 with you all!
