About this Event
So many requested we offer it again, and so we shall! Saturday, December 14th, for the final full moon of 2024, known by many names:
🌳Buck Moon: A name used by the Miami people
🌳Wanícokan Wi: A name used by the Lakota, meaning "the moon when the deer sheds their horns
🌳Long Night Moon: A name used by the Mohicans because it occurs close to the winter solstice
We are innovating at the Speed Of Nature - yet our invitation is for you to slow down to the speed of the trees. Let the full moon bathe you in the Beaver Phase of the Last Full Moon of 2024. According to ancient indigenous wisdom, this moon is for preparation of resources and the winter to come; going within your heart-cave as you walk into our 123 year old growth forest, on paths that are the least trodden at Patch, deep into the hammock, arriving at the Thai Meditation Joglo, in the velvet of night, for a Candlelight Forest Bath experience, under La Luna Llena.
Hosted by Suzanne Jewell, our Chief Experience Officer, Patch of Heaven Sanctuary Founder of the Mindful Pocket Park @Patch, certified mindfulness meditation teacher through the UC Berkeley Greater Good Science Center/Sounds True training, Executive Resilience Coach and Forest Therapy guide.

Ordinarily I go to the woods alone,
with not a single friend,
for they are all smilers and talkers
and therefore unsuitable.
I don’t really want to be witnessed talking to the catbirds
or hugging the old black oak tree.
I have my ways of praying,
as you no doubt have yours.
Besides, when I am alone
I can become invisible.
I can sit on the top of a dune
as motionless as an uprise of weeds,
until the foxes run by unconcerned.
I can hear the almost unhearable sound of the roses singing.
If you have ever gone to the woods with me,
I must love you very much.
-Mary Oliver
