Description

A community offering to honor grief and celebrate abundance. Gather with us in remembrance of cycles past, and reverence of cycles to come. CMDC’s HARVEST HEALING FESTIVAL is a free community offering to honor grief, and to grow attunement towards our self and collective harvest through an array of healing modalities. Honoring our elemental guides, participants will be led to WATER, AIR, FIRE, WATER, and WIND medicine that will support both physical and mental heartfelt wounds, and lead grief towards embodied movements of release and connection to the infinite possibilities of reconciliation and strength. In a time of such uncertainty, we seek to remind, support and guide our community members to reconnect with their bodies, honor cycles past and reverence cycles to come. The day will be filled with group classes, individual health sessions, vendors, and CMDC’s live session of Dance From The Heart Embodied Movement practice.
