Held
A Winter Solstice Day Retreat to Be Supported, Seen & Restored
From darkness into darkness, let yourself be “Held” in the light.
On the shortest day of the year, let us cultivate light together — through our voices, yoga, community, and connection.
Held is a full-day Solstice experience created to honour the turning of the season — a sacred pause to reflect, release, and receive. This day retreat invites you to move gently from stillness to expansion, from darkness into light, through intentional practice, ritual, and shared presence.
Together, we’ll begin before sunrise — breathing, chanting, and awakening as the first light of day arrives. You’ll be guided through grounding movement, astrological exploration, hands-on healing, and the deep rest of sound and Reiki — all designed to support your natural rhythm and help you feel nourished, renewed, and truly held.
This is a day to slow down, open your heart, and remember the beauty of being supported — by each other, by nature, and by the light returning once again.

Birth details (for astrology session)
Join us for a transformative 2-hour session designed to reconnect you with your breath and body through the art of fascial release. This immersive experience blends breathwork, self-massage, and mindful movement to reset your physiology and restore your natural rhythm.
Guided by the principles of embodied breath, you’ll explore the three zones of breathing—diaphragmatic, thoracic, and clavicular—while learning how to mobilize your ribs, stimulate your diaphragm, and awaken the elastic recoil of your breath. Using pressure-based rolling techniques, you’ll massage into your lung space and open the side waist for effortless expansion.
This session also taps into the deep fascial connections between your diaphragm, core muscles, and nervous system, offering profound relaxation through vagus nerve stimulation and breath-led movement. Whether you're seeking stress relief, improved breathing mechanics, or a deeper connection to your body, this TLC-infused experience will leave you feeling restored, rewired, and deeply nourished.
