Join Reiki Master Teacher and Yoga Nidra Facilitator, Kate Wargo of Woven Light LLC in a soothing Yoga Nidra (Yogic Sleep) practice guiding you into the “in between”; that space between being awake and being asleep. Within this space, a dream will be induced taking you into a state of consciousness that can bring about immense healing in your conscious, subconscious, and unconscious mind. The cave will transform into a “Nidra Nest” with zero gravity chairs, blankets, and bolsters to fully support you, whether sitting or lying down, for the entire experience. Release stuck emotions, rest, and rejuvenate!
We will be weaving in Reiki (Energy Healing) into this beautiful session to deepen our practice!

A rare celestial alchemy unfolds On July 7th, 2025, Uranus—planet of awakening, disruption, and liberation—enters the air sign of Gemini, initiating a seven-year cycle of radical change in how we think, communicate, learn, and connect. This workshop is an invitation to explore the deeper meaning of this transit: a collective rewiring of the mental field, a shake-up of outdated narratives, and a call to innovate the ways we exchange information and truth. When Uranus makes its move, hold on to your hats and glasses, this will be a fast ride into the future. Lets talk about it, and prepare for success.
Together, we’ll delve into how this transit may stir revolution in education, technology, media, and consciousness—and how to align personally with the frequency of curious rebellion and conscious speech. Expect insights, chart examples, and space to vision your role in the coming wave of mental and social evolution.
