About this Event

Return to Your Heart is a day to help you remember who you are beneath the pressures of everyday life.


You're burned out... and you want to feel your life force pulsing in you again.

You're tired of chasing the time you keep giving away to others... and finally give yourself a day to remember your wholeness.

You're struggling with big life questions about yourself and your purpose... and you're ready to enter a space to find the answers within.

You're tired of always being the one who takes the lead... and you just want to be held in softness for a day.


If this sounds like you, you're invited to spend the afternoon with us on Sunday, March 8th, for an afternoon that will leave you feeling held, guided to your own wisdom, and most importantly... re-energized to return to life with newfound inspiration, love, clarity, and connection to Self.


This 3-hour experience combines the magic of Somatic Bodywork, Yoga, and Sound Healing with the heart-awakening properties of Ceremonial Mexican Cacao to help you release stress and stagnant emotions, inviting clarity and healing.


Your ticket includes the full experience, plus complimentary drinks and snacks (vegan & vegetarian options) to delight in throughout.


All you need is:

  • A yoga mat (extra available if needed)
  • Comfortable clothing for sitting and moving
  • A journal (optional, to note any insights)
  • Water bottle
  • An open heart and a willingnes to let us treat YOU for a day!
