Midwinter marks the the halfway point between the Winter Solstice and the Vernal Equinox. Animals are still hibernating. Plants continue to hold their life energy down in their roots, rhizomes and seeds within the earth. And we humans can notice, if we are attentive, how we too desire to journey inward, be still, rest and dream, deep within our roots.

Experience the peacefulness of settling into the energy of Midwinter with music and meditation. Feel the gentle joy of nurturing your creative heart with rituals, spiritual practices and heart-opening creative explorations; dance, poetry creation and chant singing.

Let your body, mind and spirit savor moments of serene rest, tender intention setting, kind action and compassionate reflection in this time of inner stillness that nourishes each of us, so that we are rested and ready to share our beauty fully with the world as the light begins to return once again.

This offering is part of the“Embracing Winter: Inside and Out” retreat at Pinnacle Yoga and Retreat Center, 419 Frontage Rd., Keeseville, NY 12944. Details & registration Here
