This time, they reunite to create a sacred space for welcoming in the light of 2026.As the dust of the old year settles, this is a sacred moment to reflect, a moment to honour change, awaken hope, and embrace the excitement of new beginnings, guided by light and the gentle return to yourself. While the world often leans into the idea of “new year, new you,” we invite you instead to make 2026 a homecoming to your heart — a gentle opening to the light, and a releasing of all that no longer serves you.Let us hold you in the embrace of our Divine Feminine, inviting love, light, and sacred connection to flow into your heart. Join us as we gather in the cocooning warmth of a beautiful yurt, held by the soft glow of a crackling log fire and an afternoon infused with compassion, love and light.Together, we will create a sacred sanctuary for stillness, reflection, and inner renewal — a place where you can soften, breathe, and remember the truth that has always lived within you, returning to your heart’s innate wisdom and lightGuided by the spirit of Mama Cacao, we will sink into a heart-opening cacao ceremony designed to illuminate your inner radiance, cultivate presence, and help you lovingly release all that no longer serves your path as you step into a brighter, more aligned year.Charlotte is a qualified Meditation Teacher with over 4 years of experience.
