Sunset Mindfulness & Community Building Bonfire🔥Mindfulness, Connection, Snacks

• Looking to build community with like minded souls?
• Enjoy spending time outdoors?
• Love a good bonfire with (or without) some s’mores? 🔥

Come break up your workweek and enjoy a night of mindfulness, connection, conversation and snacks under the stars.

Please note, there is a suggested fee, for those who are able, to help defer costs—details below.

With the sound of the bay and the crackle of the fire as our backdrop, we’ll begin with a short guided mindfulness practice to ground us. Then we’ll have some brief icebreakers and intros—with a chance to share what brings you to the group.

I’ll have some guided conversation prompts to help us drop into connection in a meaningful way. Some light, some a bit more deep….the option to listen, pass, or pick a new topic is always there…We may break into 2s or 3s a couple times for some smaller group connections if the group would like. I’ll offer some options to spark conversation (yes, that was a bonfire play on words!) and flow with what the group most wants to do.

Setting: Playa Pacifica
What to bring:
