Every great transformation begins in the dark, fertile silence of the earth. As we open our Spring & Summer season of Sitka and Stillness, we begin at the very beginning: with Bhumi Devi, the ancient Goddess of the Earth.

In the Pacific Northwest, April is the month of the "Quickening"—when the sap begins to rise in the Sitka spruce and the first hidden seeds begin to thrum with potential. This session is a homecoming to your own foundation. Before we can bloom, and before we can roar, we must first learn how to belong to the ground beneath us.

Weaving the grounding frequency of the large gongs with the deep, earthy "Root Mantras" of the Vedic tradition, we will create a somatic container for deep rest and recalibration. This is a call to drop the weight of the "doing" and remember the medicine of "being."

What to expect:

• Earth-Element Breathwork: Slow, stabilizing pranayama to settle the nervous system and anchor your energy in the pelvic bowl.

• The Bhu-Mantra: A vocal immersion in the seed sounds of the earth, designed to harmonize your body’s resonance with the land.

• Root-Resonance Sound Bath: A deep-tissue sonic experience using low-frequency bowls and gongs to facilitate cellular release and grounding.

The Return: We conclude our ceremony by grounding further into the senses, sharing a mineral-rich infusion of Nettle and Oatstraw tea alongside a prasad of maple-glazed roots and toasted seeds, embodying the very essence of the soil that sustains us.
