Description
Join us this New Year’s Eve for an evening of mindfulness, reflection, and community as we close out the year with intention and presence. The evening will follow our regular schedule (7:00 until 9:00 PM), with Carolyn Stachowski guiding us this evening.
From 9:10 to 10:00 PM, we’ll engage in a mindful writing activity designed to anchor us in the present moment and invite reflection as we set our intentions for the year ahead. Supplies will be provided.
Afterward, from 10:00 to 11:00 PM, we will have time to enjoy some snacks and connect with fellow practitioners.
At 11:00 PM, we will close with some chants to mark the transition into the new year.
We will conclude by 11:15 PM, ensuring that everyone has ample time to return home safely.
You are welcome to join us for all or part of the evening—whether you wish to leave at the normal time (9 PM), after the writing session at 10 PM, after the social time at 11 PM, or after the closing chants at 11:15 PM.
