Magickal Mystical Exploration with Kendra Binnings
Come learn about the mysteries and magickal ways of ancient healers we've come to know as Witches. Unveil the truth of their ways in honoring nature and all living beings of our Mother Earth. Their knowledge of herbs, oils and healing brews. In this class we will study, practice and share our own journeys in a safe space. We will learn about incense, oils and brews and what nature has to contribute along our path. We will share and discuss the importance of witchcraft to community as well as to our own solo journey. You do not need to be a witch to join us. The desire to learn and find the truth in what it means is all you need, a curious mind is always welcome.
Joyful Drum and Play with Ioana
Let’s gather to generate some joy through creative rhythms and play, and nourish ourselves through shared experiences and food! Please, bring a dish to share.
We welcome in any types of drums, rattles, shakers, bells and whistles!
For the interactive play, the main instruments are our bodies and voices. Tapping, clapping, stumping, vocalizing and improvising are guaranteed to spark some inner fire and fill you with good energy for a great start of the year.
This event is envisioned as a gathering that promotes personal and community wellbeing and bonding through playful activities and nourishing foods. Neuro-games with bilateral stimulation hidden in rhythm sequences help balance emotional and sensory perception with logical thinking; playing with the beats stimulates creativity and cognitive functions; laughter stimulates endorphins – the body’s own opioids, promoting feelings of well-being, and boosting mood; free flow drumming provides anxiety relief, promotes calm and spiritual awareness; sustaining the beat in unison promotes co-regulation and a sense of belonging.
Love donations welcomed and encouraged at the door.

There has never been a more pivotal time in our lives when we needed to Embrace DEEP inner Peace and Connection.
In a world yearning for harmony, the journey always begins within.
In these intense times its easy to be swept away by the chaos, distraction, dis-harmony and separation but there IS another path - of calm, of clarity and of Deep Rooted PEACE.
Join Rebekah Jo for a community circle where we will open sacred space, reconnect with the stillness within, thru the embrace of the Angelic Realm and with the support of the Dragons of Peace my intent is that you will emerge grounded, tranquil and reconnected to the Remembering of the Divine Plan for humanity at this time in our human collective ascension.
In this circle you will experience:
- A sacred space to slow down and tune in
- A gentle descent from the mind to the heart
- A sense of peace and relaxation within your being
- Warmth of community with like- hearted souls
**Optional Ceremonial Cacao will be available for an additional fee - you MUST email Rebekah at connect@queenofdragons.me to notify her you wish to have cacao as part of your experience as each serving is measured and prepared ahead of time.

***Please bring a cushion or mat to sit on and if there is a sacred item you wish to bring with you to place on the altar during the ceremony to infuse with the frequency to carry back home with you please do so.

Focusing-Oriented Empathy Circle
Experiential Group for Inner Healing and Self Actualization based on Eugen Gendlin's Focusing process and Empathic Reflections.
We cultivate Somatic Awareness, Authentic Communication, Connection, Co-Regulation and Self-Regulation within the safety and support of a non-judgmental and compassionate circle.
Cost: $10 - $20 love donation suggested for space related expenses
Focusing is a process grounded in experiential listening; it is a powerful way of interacting with innate body-felt knowing, and allows access to deeper levels of awareness, wisdom, self-guidance, opening the path for inner healing and personal growth. Focusing starts in a similar way to a mindfulness meditation or contemplative practice, then goes beyond that: using our somatic awareness, we notice our bodily responses and reactions, yet instead of letting go, we engage with what comes up with curiosity and openness.
More about focusing here: https://focusing.org/felt-sense/what-focusing
Empathic Reflections are personal experiences shared in the group about what comes up while witnessing other people's processing; they are not comments or interpretations about someone else’s process, nor direct feedback, suggestions and advice.
What to expect: grounding and mindfulness practice, contemplative and guided focusing exercises, focusing demonstrations and processing, diads, discussions, reflections, sharing, mindful connection.
There is a direct processing happening for those engaged in the active focusing sessions, and an indirect processing for those holding the space and witnessing the others, both with potential for deep healing, self-discovery and growth. This practice can be very powerful, as it taps into our ‘murky waters,” catching what is not yet known or clear, and bringing it up into our awareness. This gives the opportunity for mindful engagement with significant content that might have influenced our actions, decisions, and course of life without us even knowing.
With a Holistic, Integrative, Trauma-Informed approach, this work promotes respect and unconditional acceptance of one’s inner experience, desire and readiness for processing and carrying forward.
Azul Embodied Awakening Dance- BOGO
We continue our Embodiment Sunday mornings as we use dance as a means of healing, transformation and building community. Our dance is free style and no experience is needed! All you need is a body.
Samhain Celebration and Ceremony
Come together as the veil draws thin to celebrate the Celtic New Year.
Samhain (pronounced sow-wen) is said to be the time of year when the veils between worlds are the thinnest. It is a time when people of all earth based spiritual practices celebrate and recognize the changing of the seasons, the falling leaves, the death and decay that begins to form and process over the winter that makes way for new life in the spring. It is a time to honor our ancestors, to acknowledge and lean into the cyclical nature of our being, to lean into the death and rebirth of the natural and spiritual world and to set intentions for the life we want to create.
Samhain marks the halfway point between the autumnal equinox and the winter solstice, making it one of four Celtic cross-quarter days (the other three being Imbolc, Beltane, and Lughnasa.) It is a time to celebrate the harvests of the pastoral year, while marking the beginning of the next. Samhain is a still point, a chance to pause, reflect and give thanks.
What to expect:
Pumpkin painting to ward off evil spirits (pumpkin included in ticket price)
A sharing circle to reflect on our year and celebrate our harvests
A burn ceremony to release that which is ready to die
Shamanic drum ceremony to connect with our well and healthy ancestors
