Sacred Steps: Hiking, Yoga & The Art of ConnectionThursday | 1:00–6:00 PM

Some trails ask you to move faster. This one invites you to slow down. Sacred Steps is an immersive journey through Vermont's living landscape — part hike, part yoga, part honest conversation about what it means to truly connect. As we make our way to Lye Brook Falls*, we'll weave in breathwork, mindful movement, and gentle reflection, letting the forest set the pace. Open to all levels, this experience is an invitation to meet yourself, meet each other, and remember that the path itself is the practice.

*Off-site in Manchester, VT; carpooling recommended

The Morning Ritual: Cacao & PlungeFriday | 8:00–10:00 AM

Begin the day the way the earth does — slowly, deliberately, with something warm before the cold. We'll open with ceremonial cacao, walk together from the property to the river, and drop into meditation before taking the plunge. The cacao softens the heart; the water wakes the body. Together, they make for a morning that stays with you long after you've dried off.

Magic Needs a Village: Community Circle

Magic doesn't happen in isolation — it sparks in the space between people who dare to show up and be seen. We'll open with ceremonial cacao, letting the medicine of the heart soften us into the circle, before moving into an offering and an invitation: to share the gifts you carry, to witness others in theirs, and to feel the aliveness that comes from being truly received. Come with what's alive in you. Leave knowing you belong here.
