New Year's Eve Retreat
Here and Now, Moment to Moment
Wednesday, December 31, 2025
Open to all.
Together we will welcome the New Year practicing in community, connecting with our shared aspirations to cultivate mindfulness, nourish our own hearts, and care for our world. We will also practice lovingkindness, opening to our highest intentions through guided reflections. An optional practice session will be offered through the midnight hour (Eastern Standard Time), as we approach 2026. Space will be provided for participants to share practice intentions for the new year.
