Regenerative evenings - Summer Solstice Gathering

Our next Regenerative evening will be on 20 May, a celebratory summer solstice gathering.

Date: June 20, 2024 from 18h30 onwards (evening program will end at 21h30/22h with possibility to stay longer)

Join us for a magical evening celebrating the Summer Solstice, a time of abundant light, growth, and transformation. Our next Regenerative Evening will be a special gathering where we come together around a fire to share stories, experiences, and embrace the energy around the longest day of the year.

What to Expect:

Fire Ceremony: We will gather around a communal fire, a symbol of warmth, light, and transformation.

Story Sharing: Bring a story, poem, or experience to share. This is a time for communal reflection, connection, and celebration of our journeys.

Community Connection: Meet like-minded individuals, build connections, and enjoy the atmosphere.

Solstice Celebration: Engage in activities that honour the solstice, from singing to simple rituals that mark this significant time of the year.

What to Bring:

Comfortable clothing suitable for an evening outdoors.
A blanket or cushion to sit on.
Your favorite story, poem, or experience to share.
A reusable water bottle and any personal snacks you may want.

Let's come together to celebrate the peak of light and life, nurturing our spirits and each other in this beautiful regenerative practice.

To help us plan the evening, please register for a ticket at least 1 week ahead of the event. The minimum group size is 5 people, and the maximum is 10. (You help us a lot by registering as early as possible.) The evening will be in English.
