Last fall we had over 50 people join us on top of Monks Mound at the Cahokia Mounds World Heritage Site. Join us again for spring...Jaime Sanchez of WEST EAST YOGA, Lisa Grezlak of SVOUND and AUM STL for a powerful sunrise ceremony honoring the Spring Equinox. You will participate in a Mayan ceremony of honoring Mother Earth, gentle ground yoga movements, and sound healing that includes hand drums, a 32" planetary gong, and crystal singing bowls. ***Open to the public*** No experience required. The Mayan ceremony has been handed down for generations and honors the planet, humanity and the rise of higher consciousness on the planet. The shifting of seasons is a powerful time on the planet. We will be at the sacred and world-renowned Cahokia Mounds in Illinois (right across the river from STL city.)
