Join Joanna on Sunday, February 8th from 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM at Sfeer Yoga Studio in Chapel Hill for a mindfulness meditation retreat.

At the halfway point between winter and spring, when the earth begins to stir, we will take a day to linger a bit longer in winter’s nest. The Celts call this time of year Imbolc, or the first spark of spring. Together, we will tend both the inner and outer flames through practices that illuminate, restore, and renew.

Our day will include:

• Guided meditations in the Insight Meditation tradition (mindfulness), rituals, and an altar attuned to the energy of this threshold day

• Small and large group discussions

• Community fire to warm and inspire

• Sound bath for deep rest and nervous system care

• Mindful Yin Yoga for restorative support with Saskia Meckman, yoga teacher and Certified Reiki Practitioner

• Signature herbal tea from Monica Rivera of Cultivating Resistance Herbals

• A warming catered lunch from Vimala’s Curryblossom

• Free time to paint, journal, or walk the grounds

The majority of this retreat will be held in Noble Silence, with intentional openings for both small and large group sharing.

🌕 Lunch and a small gift are included.
