    Welcoming the New Year with an Open Heart Retreat


    January 1, 2026

    Jenna Joya Blondel, Kelly Burnham, Terry de la Vega

    We invite you to an afternoon retreat, Welcoming the New Year with an Open Heart.

    Give yourself the gift of time and community as we begin the new year on community. Enjoy a slow afternoon with plenty of time for relaxation and reflection. We will gather in a centering circle and an exploration of what it means to allow our hearts to set our intentions. We will draw angel cards for inspiration in the new year.

    We will practice breathing with the heart, create a collage as visual representation of our intention, and finishing with a Yoga Nidra guided healing meditation.

    All art materials will be supplied. If you have old magazines, calendars, etc to contribute to the mix of images for the group, please bring them. Light refreshments will be served.

    Fee $50. Space is limited, be sure to preregister online to ensure your spot.
