Head into 2026 feeling rested and grounded.
Too often we start the new year completely exhausted from the one before. We speed through November and December, careen through the holidays, and drag ourselves into the new year.
What if this year, we spent a day to truly rest and refresh before heading into the new year? What if rather than hitting the ground running with goals and checklists, we ease our way into new routines from a place of rest and groundedness?
Let's face it: 2025 was exhausting. Our stress levels are through the roof, many of us are teetering toward burnout, and we might even be losing hope that things will get better.
Imagine a day to rest and breathe, a safe haven to refill after a wild year. There's no need to rush or hurry. You'll move from one meaningful activity to the next, resting your mind, body, and soul.
Enjoy this cozy day curated to feel refilling, reflective, and rejuvenating. Leave feeling more rested and more grounded in who you are. It's the perfect break after the busy holiday season. Register now so you have something to look forward to!
Join us EITHER December 27 OR January 3 from 9-4 pm!
During this cozy, restful day, you'll get:
- A gentle, mindful morning yoga class focused on connecting with yourself, perfect for all skill-levels and bodies
