For thousands of years, people have followed and celebrated the natural rhythms of time and place. The Winter Solstice has long been recognized as a significant turning point in the natural momentum of life.

Please join KEA this December for our first Solstice Meditation Gathering, a reflective gathering centered around recognizing our connection to the natural world and rhythms. Led by Mary Hanlin and Brandi Mayes, together, we'll intentionally direct our attention to our shared time and space.

Mary Hanlin, a certified Forest Bathing Guide, will help us connect with our local environment, appreciating the beauty of winter as a season inviting rest, reflection, and renewal.

Brandi Mayes, a budding Astrologer, will guide us in observing the current quality of time and our important role within it, sharing ways to align with the energy of the Winter Solstice, and providing prompts for reflection.

The Solstice Meditation Gathering will take place on Sunday, December 21st, at 11am in the Public Pavilion in Sherman Park in downtown CDA. The gathering will last approximately 1 hour. Please come prepared to sit comfortably outside for the entire time. Bring a journal if you would like.
