Honoring the Winter Solstice

Through taking a pause during the sacred time of the Solstice, when half of Earth is tilted the farthest away from the sun, we can address melancholy and sadness and go beyond the mundane of self-limiting narratives. Through paying close attention to mind and body, we may discover greater meaning and purpose in life. Winter solstice offers a time to give thanks to the sun for making it return once again.

The day’s program will also include:

• A guided tour of the Mount Madonna campus (weather permitting)
• Lunch & dinner in the shared community dining hall
• Personal time
• Option to stay for arati (ritual of light) after dinner at the Sankat Mochan Hanuman Temple
• Option to book a wellness treatment at Kaya Kalpa Wellness Center (fees additional, advance reservations recommended)
