Summer Solstice Celebration
w. Kara Aubin . CAP, E.RYT, AYT + Kara Markovich
The Summer Solstice, as the longest day of the year, marks the apex of the solar cycle.
Solstice means ‘stopped, stationary’. This is the still point where the sun seems to pause in it’s gradually descending position on the horizon, before beginning to climb again. The “pause” in transitions is an aspect that can be challenging to remember, and if we can honor it, it’s where magic unfolds.
Join Kara Aubin & Kara Markovich for this special evening event to celebrate the solstice. This celebration weaves together the modalities of Yoga, sound therapy, and community connection to create an intentional and collective pause.
Our evening begins (weather permitting) with a walk in the woods. We’ll gather in circle to honor what’s this solar energy is breathing life into.
An asana practice led by Kara A. will center you, and bring life force into alignment.
The evening will close as we offer our collective intentions to the power of the subconscious mind via a Sound Therapy session with Kara M.
Suggested Props:
- something to sit on in the woods
- yoga mat
- firm yoga blanket
- yoga blocks (2)
- knee bolster or other support
- eye pillow
Please dress comfortably for movement and rest. You won’t regret bringing extra props.
