Neil will guide us through a series of meditations and kundalini practices aligned with the energy of the Full Moon. Our efforts are amplified with the magnitude of energy the full moon provides, it is the most potent time to practice a meditation.

Have you been feeling the call of embodying more of your truth? Of creating deeper, more fulfilling relationships? Of healing trauma? Do you long to quell the self-judgement and speak to yourself with love?

Our inner Masculine and Feminine are potent energies that affect our behaviors. When wielded unskillfully, they can tear us down and keep us stuck in harmful patterns. But, when understood and harnessed, they are our most useful assets in embodying and expressing our innate wholeness.

Through exercises, teachings, and group discussions, we’ll gain a better understanding of how these inner forces manifest in our bodies, relationships, and behaviors.

This workshop provides a safe and supportive space for self-exploration.

When you understand these aspects, you can more easily shift along this spectrum of expression in order to:
• Speak your needs
• Set boundaries
• Speak to yourself with love, not judgement
• Hold yourself through big emotions
• Connect more deeply with yourself
• Create more satisfying relationships
• Reduce stress and burnout
• Lead yourself and your communities better
• Heal and/or strengthen your relationship with masculine energy
• Liberate your life force

What do bring:
• Pen and paper 
• Comfortable clothes

Investment:
• $20
• Free for Lotus members, including in passes and subscriptions

What to Expect

The New Moon is symbolic of new beginnings. It is a reset in the cosmic energy and can provide us with a reset as well.

The darkness of the New Moon allows us to connect more deeply with our own intuition and psychic energy, giving us access to these parts of ourselves with new clarity. From this clarity, creativity is sparked, big ah-ha moments happen and that little voice inside you gets louder.
