Discover Your Soul's Purpose — An Immersion into the Akashic Records
Saturday September 19, 2026 3:00pm - 4:00pm EDT
There comes a moment when seeking outward answers no longer satisfies—when the soul
whispers that the truth has always lived within.

This one-hour sacred immersion is an invitation to gently enter the Akashic Records—the
luminous field of consciousness where your soul's wisdom, gifts, lessons, and purpose are held
in vibrational form. Within a grounded yet mystical space, you'll discover what the Records are,
how they may be approached with reverence, and how they can illuminate your unique path of
service, healing, and creation.

Your journey will be enhanced with the sacred aromas of Himalayan Cedarwood, inviting
strength, grounding, and the remembrance of your ancient wisdom with Buddha Wood, a
deeply meditative oil that quiets the mind, opens the heart, and creates space for inner peace
and intuitive connection.

Through guided meditation, energetic preparation, and intuitive reflection, you'll begin to
recognize the patterns that have shaped your journey, the wisdom that has followed you across
lifetimes, and the deeper purpose quietly unfolding within you.

This is not about predicting the future—it's about remembering who you truly are.
✨ Leave feeling grounded, inspired, and deeply connected to your soul's path with
greater clarity, self-trust, and inner peace.

Saturday September 19, 2026 4:30pm - 5:30pm EDT
Send Your Soul To Space is a deeply restorative yoga nidra and sound bath experience designed to guide participants into a state of profound rest, spacious awareness, and subtle integration.

This offering is both grounding and expansive, making it accessible to all bodies and experience levels. Whether you’re seeking integration after a full festival day or simply craving deep rest, Send Your Soul To Space offers a gentle departure from effort and a return with renewed clarity, calm, and presence.

Under Pressure: How Your Brain & Body Respond to Threat—and What to Do About It
Sunday September 20, 2026 11:30am - 12:30pm EDT
This lecture-based self-protection class explores what actually happens in the brain and body during moments of fear, stress, or perceived threat—and how that response affects awareness, decision-making, and action.

Participants will learn how the stress response works, how the OODA loop (Observe–Orient–Decide–Act) breaks down under pressure, and why “freezing,” delayed reactions, or confusion are normal—not failures. We’ll cover practical, science-backed strategies to interrupt panic, regain clarity, and improve decision-making when it matters most.

This is an accessible, trauma-aware presentation designed for everyday life—not combat—focusing on awareness, boundary recognition, nervous system regulation, and realistic self-protection principles. No physical techniques required.

Perfect for anyone interested in safety, embodiment, nervous system health, and understanding their own responses under stress.
