🌙 Into the Spiral: A Winter Solstice Virtual Retreat for Reflection, Release & Renewal

As the days grow shorter and the nights deepen, we arrive at a powerful threshold — the Winter Solstice. It is the longest night of the year, a sacred pause in nature’s cycle, and an invitation to come home to ourselves.

This season isn’t about doing more. It’s about being — resting, remembering, and reconnecting with our inner light.

To honor this sacred time, I’m hosting a Winter Solstice Virtual Mini Retreat — and you’re warmly invited to join.


❄️ Winter Solstice Virtual Mini Retreat: Into the Spiral

Sunday, December 21, 2025
6:00–8:00 PM (your time zone)
Held online via Zoom
Registration: $44 | VIP Upgrade: $88
👉 Click here to sign up


This two-hour retreat is a soul-nourishing experience designed to help you:

  • Reflect on the year behind you

  • Gently release what no longer serves

  • Reconnect with your body, breath, and spirit

  • Set intentions for the new season of light ahead

Together, we’ll create a spiral altar using natural elements — herbs, citrus, spices, evergreens — that can later be transformed into a simmer pot. This altar becomes both a reflection of your inner landscape and a sacred tool to carry the retreat’s energy into your space long after our time together ends.


🕯️ What to Expect:

  • Opening candle ritual + breathwork

  • Teaching on the spiritual and cultural meaning of Winter Solstice

  • Guided creation of a nature-based spiral altar or mandala

  • Meditation and breathwork with your altar as a focus

  • Journaling + a mini release ritual using bay leaves or paper

  • Gentle yoga and sound healing (shown with both chair + floor options)

  • Creative visioning practice — choose between a vision board, wish cone, or vibration board

  • Closing oracle card pull, Solstice blessing poem, and group reflection

  • Instructions on how to turn your spiral into a simmer pot


🪑 Accessibility & Inclusivity

This retreat is gentle, inclusive, and open to all.
The yoga portion includes simple poses demonstrated both on the floor and in a chair, so you can participate in whatever way best supports your body and space. Whether you're in bed, on a mat, or in a chair — you are welcome, exactly as you are.

No prior experience with yoga, ritual, meditation, or art is needed. Just come as you are, with an open heart.

🌞 Why This Matters

Winter Solstice marks not just a seasonal change, but a spiritual one. It’s a threshold. A turning point. A moment to say:

I release what no longer serves.
I honor what I’ve learned.
I welcome what’s next — gently, slowly, sacredly.

You don’t have to do this alone.
Come spiral inward with us, and return to your own center of light.


🌲 Space is limited for an intimate virtual circle.
✨ Reserve your spot now and give yourself the gift of sacred pause this Winter Solstice.
