A Deep Exhale on the Longest Day: Summer Solstice Breath & Sound Journey
with Sabrina Siwiec

The summer solstice is the longest day of the year. The moment the light peaks before it slowly, gently begins to turn. Ancient cultures marked it with fire, flowers, and ritual — a recognition that some moments are too sacred to let pass without ceremony. This is yours.
Come as you are. Leave as someone who remembered who they are.
Linger is a special summer solstice edition of Breath & Bowls — a 90-minute healing journey that moves through somatic movement, conscious breathwork, and sound healing, closing with something a little magical.

The Wonders of Beeswax
2026-10-20 13:00 - 14:00
Free! In this workshop, held in the Sanctuary, our Alvéole beekeeper will share how to make hand-dipped beeswax candles, while revealing aspects of beeswax, from how it’s made in the hive to the fascinating ways humans have used the material over time. Participants walk away with a new skill and their own pair of hand-made candles.
