Join us in virtual community to honor inner balance in the season of reflection on the winter Solstice!


In Latin, solstice is made of two words: sol– meaning “the sun” and sistere meaning “to make stand.” Winter Solstice is one the most powerful points of the year as the axis of the Earth pauses, shifts and moves in the opposite direction. For three days around the solstice points we experience the power of the standstill point and the shift of direction. The sun standing still is a powerful metaphor for the energy available to us at the Winter Solstice to change the direction of our lives with intention and build on this energy as we enter into the new year and a new cycle. After experiencing the longest night and darkest day, the nights grow shorter and the days grow brighter until the Summer Solstice.

It is a time of quiet energy, where you get the opportunity to pause and look within yourself and let the energies of new life and inspiration build slowly within you. The solstice represents a time for you to reflect on yourself, and also for you to realize what you want a shift of direction toward or away from as well as what you need to make changes within yourself. This is the nature of things… the cycles and rhythms of personal growth and change, as you consistently nurture yourself with compassion, allowing for rest and reflection, great joy will be your harvest.



The Embodied Energy Cleanse Seasonal Program






Embody the Rhythm of Nature



Often, when people use the word "cleanse," it brings to mind caloric restriction or harsh detox programs that can actually shock, exhaust, and deplete your digestive and nervous systems. The Solstice Cleanse is NOT about caloric restriction, nor is is wholly centered around food, it is balanced in movement, mindfulness and nourishment for the mind body and soul. Food is fuel for your body. Have you ever met a mechanic who recommended running your car on the least amount of gas possible? The same goes for you. If you want to feel your best, you have to set yourself up for success: eat real food, and plenty of it. The Solstice Cleanse is centered on the idea that the quality of food you eat directly impacts your quality of life. Our seasonal method is designed for your energy system (chakras) to heal, reset and balance.

About The Spring Equinox Season


The word equinox comes from Latin and means, “equality of night and day.” At this point in time, the sun is directly above the hemisphere, meaning that both halves of the Earth are receiving the sun's rays equally, and the length of day and night are pretty much the same. The spring equinox is a significant event in the astronomical cycle of the earth, as well as energetic cycles and signifies the end of winter, which can sometimes feel a little rocky. The energy shifting from an inward-focus to outwardly-focused can make you feel a bit off-balance. Implementing changes required in order to grow & flourish, can really disrupt your sense of equilibrium in late winter.


We can learn from nature’s graceful transition, for nature does not revolt or resist. It slowly moves from the dark to the light, and from the light to the dark again. It’s all about finding the balance in our inner and outer world.


With the Spring Equinox, the Earth returns to a place of perfect balance. Everything is coming alive. Nature is waking up & being reborn. Traditionally, the equinox was celebrated as a time to cleanse out stagnant energy within the self and homes

Perhaps now more than ever, the human race is upgrading and shedding the old. It is our natural inclination to resist change, but it is through change that real growth occurs. The same thing is happening within you. Your spirit is coming alive with hopeful, excited energy. Parts of you are being reborn & coming alive in ways they never have before.


During this time in history, the Spring Equinox holds an even deeper meaning. As the world is being forced to slow down, we are being asked to be more mindful and intentional with the way we live, connect and nourish ourselves as well as those around us.

About The Summer Solstice Season

The word solstice originates from the Latin word solstitium, which means “stationary (stiti-) sun (sol). Twice a year the sun appears to rise and set in the same place for several days. It seems to be taking a much-needed rest before making the next circuit across the sky. With summer solstice comes the culmination of the sun’s travels that have led to the longest days of the year. The light is now at its fullest and has provided its own brand of nourishment to the land and all of its inhabitants. Celebrations and ceremonies abound. Passion and playfulness are themes. We instinctively seek the light, and during this cycle, there is an abundance of it.


Allow the radiance of the sun to inspire your inner radiance to shine forth. Release your concerns about what may happen in the future, and focus on appreciating everything you have that is good and right. Allow the sun to take away your worries and cares. Do something to stimulate your inner light. Dance, sing, move and get outdoors. Be in love with life and naturally radiate love. The more love you give the more love is returned to you. Allow the radiant being you truly are to be expressed, smile a little more, notice beauty around you, see the humor in life's paradoxes and watch the world around you light up.

About The Fall Equinox Season

The autumn equinox arrives on September 22, 2022. The word “equinox” comes from Latin and means “equal night”, meaning day and night are equally balanced in length.


The Autumn Equinox is a meaningful time of year to honor the harvest time of year, a time to acknowledge growth and expansion as a natural evolution of being. Things begin to slow down. The leaves change colors and trees shed what they no longer need. The same is happening for you. You’re changing and releasing things you no longer need as you progress into the end of the year. This program is designed in a balanced method to fit right into your current lifestyle as is.


At the equinoxes, the energetics of our natural environment switch from yin to yang (in Spring) and yang to yin (in Autumn). The bustling, active, yang nature of Summer transitions to the softer, quieter yin energy of Autumn. This environmental energetic change is a pivotal moment to capitalize on our own ability to transform. In Ayurveda—the ancient Indian system of healing and sister science to yoga—cleanses are generally done at seasonal junction points.


During this transitional time in which the energy of the seasons shift, it’s especially important to listen to your body and give yourself love, care, and nourishment. Learn to allow your intuition to guide you and take this time to fully explore your needs. Take a deep dive into what is working for your mind - body - spirit and what isn’t. Let go and release what no longer is serving you and transition with balance.
