The Sacred Slowdown
Saturday, December 13th 10:00-4:30
Come together at Sacred Space as we celebrate the upcoming winter solstice, the longest night of the year. This timeless celestial event highlights the peak of darkness, serving as a reminder of nature's cycles and the promise of renewal. Step out of the rush and into the sacred stillness. Spend time disconnecting from the external pressures and reconnecting with your inner rhythm. We will honor the shadows and the pause, trusting that just as the light begins its slow return, the seeds of our intentions have had time to take root.
The Sacred Slowdown is a half day women's retreat where we'll focus on deep rest and renewal, intention setting and nourishing connections.
Begin the day with A Golden Light Invocation ceremony, a heart opening practice to focus on the deep nurturing warmth of our inner light and slow return on the sun. Followed by a warm and hearty soup, tasty treats, teas and coffee. After lunch learn and create a year ahead oracle card spread to help you navigate the upcoming year with intention. We'll close the day with a candlelight guided meditation infused with hands on reiki energy that offers a sense of deep nourishment and balance as you close out the year.
Experience a wonderful day at Sacred Space, where you'll emerge feeling revitalized and renewed!

Opening Circle/Introductions
Ground, center and connect. Then, get to know one another by sharing intentions and visions for the day and learn more about the Winter Solstice.
Golden Light Invocation Ceremony
Experience this sacred ritual dedicated to invoking the inner sun during the deepest period of darkness. The Golden Light Invocation Ceremony is a ritual of nourishment and hope. It is designed to gently shift your state from external doing to internal being. We'll drink the elixir at the beginning of our circle to warm the body and soul. The drink consists of plant based milk, tumeric and warming spices such as ginger and cinnamon. This ceremony is a moment to pause, honor the sacred slowdown and to consciously invite healing light. After deep reflection and stillness you'll be guided into a journaling practice.
Seasonal Solstice Feast
Gather together to share in a catered lunch to celebrate community and to give thanks for all that winter teaches us. All foods will be vegan and gluten free. (Please make sure to share any allergies you may have when you register.)
Year Ahead Oracle Card Spread
Step out of the density of the current year and look ahead with clarity. Use an oracle deck of your own or use one of Trista's. The goal here is not to predict the future but to create a sacred compass - a map of energetic themes to help you navigate the coming year from a place of intuition and rest.
Deep Restful Solstice Meditation, Reiki
Surrounded by the soothing sounds of atmospheric music, be guided into deep rest and sacred slowness as you give yourself permission to surrender. Receive hands on reiki energy to help you relax and find sweet balance in your mind, body and spirit.
