Celebrate the magic of the summer solstice in the serene surroundings of the sculpture gardens just outside Portland, in the heart of old town Troutdale close to the river.
The summer solstice marks a time of celebration, abundance, and reflection. As the sun reaches its highest point in the sky, it showers us with the longest period of daylight of the year, symbolizing light, clarity, and consciousness. It’s a moment to acknowledge the power of the sun, which not only sustains all life on Earth and drives the cycles of nature, but also mirrors the cyclical patterns of growth, renewal, and transformation in our own lives.
Begin your journey with us in a nourishing and welcoming atmosphere: gather amidst the fresh morning air where we'll welcome each guest with Yogi tea, fresh fruit and time to settle into the garden.
We'll start our day with Kundalini Yoga to align ourselves with the solar cycle and harness the transformative energy of the sun. Clear blockages in the energy channels and enjoy a smooth and harmonious flow of vital energy. Harmonize the inner Solar and Lunar polarities through breath, meditation, and mantra for enduring Energy, Connectedness, and Balance.Experience the healing vibrations of a Sun Gong Soundbath, designed to synchronize our body's frequencies, complimented with Reiki and healing touch, which will help clear, balance, and restore our energetic body.
Dive into a vibrant and healthy summer feast to nourish our bodies and delight our palates. There will be something for everyone to enjoy! (vegetarian, gluten and dairy free)
After lunch we'll make our way to the nearby river to pay tribute to the vital waters that nourish and sustain life. This closing ceremony allows us to play and reflect on our day’s journey and the interconnectedness of all things.Close the day with a visit to Sugar Pine Drive-In for some ice cream.
Pack light but bring essentials such as comfortable clothing for movement, bathing suit if you wish to fully immerse yourself in the river, a water bottle, a yoga mat and blanket for sitting, a small journal to capture the beauty of the day.
