About the event

Winter Solstice Yin & Yoga Nidra: A Ritual of Rest, Reflection, and Returning to the Light
Join us for a serene and soulful seasonal gathering honoring the Winter Solstice—the longest night of the year and a powerful threshold between darkness and the slow return of the sun.
We’ll begin with a grounding Yin Yoga practice, inviting the body to soften and unwind through long-held, supported postures. This meditative stillness opens the fascia, calms the nervous system, and creates spaciousness within—physically and energetically—so you can move into the solstice with intention and ease.

Following Yin, you’ll be guided through a deeply restorative Yoga Nidra journey (“yogic sleep”). Through gentle breathwork, visualization, and conscious rest, you’ll be invited to release the weight of the past year, sink into nourishing silence, and plant seeds of renewal within your inner landscape.

This experience will include:
🕯️ Candlelit setting for warmth and reflection
🌙 A slow, grounding Yin Yoga sequence
❄️ A deeply restorative Yoga Nidra meditation
💫 Space for quiet integration and closing

Celebrate the turning of the wheel with stillness, warmth, and community. No experience is required—simply bring cozy layers, a journal if you wish, and an open heart.

Give yourself the gift of rest, renewal, and inner light this winter solstice.

Larissa is a trained practitioner in gentle yoga, breathwork, meditation, and yoga nidra, with a deep passion for creating spaces of stillness, softness, and connection. Her practice is rooted in mindfulness and presence, drawing from a blend of ancient wisdom and modern somatic awareness.

Alongside guiding adults, she also holds space for children through kids yoga—offering playful, imaginative movement and mindful practices that support emotional resilience and joy.
