Summer Solstice Day Retreat

Experience a unique Summer Solstice celebration with Melanie Beech and Joanna Griffin at You + Me Qualicum Beach on Sunday, June 23rd, 2024!

Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year, marks the beginning of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. This significant day, celebrated by many cultures and traditions for centuries, is a time to reflect on the past, set intentions for the future, and bask in the warmth and light of the sun.

Together, we will explore the summer solstice through the lens of the throat chakra. The throat chakra, also known as Vishuddha, is the fifth primary chakra in the human body and is located in the neck and throat region. It is associated with communication, self-expression, and creativity. If this area is balanced, we are confident in our words, feel safe expressing our thoughts, visions, and ideas, and listen intently and respond calmly to situations rather than reacting. If this area is out of balance, we may lie, manipulate with words, struggle to express our truth or dominate conversations. Vishuddha teaches us that effective communication is rooted in honesty, clarity and kindness.

Day retreat includes:

- Delicious homemade tea upon arrival

- An invigorating pranayama practice

- Two yoga practices - Yoga Sculpt & Yin Yoga

- A plant-based lunch catered by Upbeet Eats

- A Sound Bath and guided meditation

- A Summer Solstice workbook

- As a Special treat, each attendee will receive a Vishuddha-inspired bag filled with delightful goodies from Honey & Bess and Root To Rise.
