Shakti Rising: Womxns Day Festival & Retreat.
SUNDAY, MARCH 28, 2021
10:00AM - 5:00PM EST / 7:00AM - 2:00PM PST
Join us for a retreat to celebrate All Self-Identified Womxen & Women's History Month. This retreat is open to EVERYONE (no matter how you self-identify) interested in celebrating women & womxn, personal healing, community, equity, and social change. You can drop in whenever you want or stay for the entire program and experience the healing power of a day long retreat. Don't miss this opportunity to be in community & raise personal and collective Shakti for the benefit of ALL!
Celebrate with the healing and cleansing practices of hatha yoga and meditation through 8 Limb Rounding. The 8 Limb Rounding method provides the unique opportunity to try a range of yoga, breathing and meditation techniques sequentially in a process called “rounding.” Rounding was developed by the ancient Rishis for rejuvenation and awakening of consciousness. This spiritual practice helps yogins and meditators deepen their spiritual practice and experience insights, awakenings and transcendence. Each presenter will offer a complete round or practice composed of yoga, breathwork, and meditation. With each round your experience of yoga, breathwork, and meditation will become more and more profound. Your consciousness and connection to self and beyond will strengthen
We are offering this festival retreat for free or by contribution. Proceeds will be divided among presenters. View the event schedule below. Then use the event pass registration links to sign up.
Happy Womxn’s History Month!
