Winter Solstice Experience: An Evening to Honor the Longest Night

Sunday, December 20, 2026 | 3–7pm | Atlanta, Georgia
Limited to 20 women. Intimate by design.

The Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year, the moment the darkness peaks and the light begins its return. For centuries it's been honored as a time to reflect, release, and renew.

For high-achieving Black women, December rarely feels like a pause. It feels like more: more hosting, more giving, more holding it together for everyone else.

This year, we gather as the solstice arrives. One evening to honor the longest night, set down what this year asked you to carry, and welcome the returning light from a place of rest instead of depletion.

Your evening includes:

  • Grounding opening ritual

  • Guided release practice for what this year asked you to carry

  • Gentle somatic movement (no experience needed; everything is adaptable)

  • A hot chocolate bar and connection with women who understand

  • A candle ritual at dusk to welcome the return of the light

  • Pleasure practice through the five senses

  • Intention-setting for the season and the year ahead

  • Closing circle

Led by Natasha Riley, LPC, Founder and Clinical Director of Javery Integrative Wellness Services.

This evening is for you if you:

  • Look successful on the outside but feel disconnected inside

  • Already feel the holidays pulling at your energy

  • Are tired of starting every new year depleted

  • Want rest without having to earn it first

What past attendees said:

"I felt safe and supported. I also appreciate the intimacy of the retreat."

"One takeaway for me was the definition of pleasure and guidance around exploring what that looks like using the 5 senses."

Your alumni rate: $65 (regular price $97). This rate is for past Winter Solstice and Revitalize & Thrive attendees.

What to bring: Comfortable clothes for gentle movement, layers, a water bottle, and an open heart.

You don't need to be broken to come. You just need to be ready to choose yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I've never done anything like this. Will I feel out of place?
A: Most attendees haven't. We meet you exactly where you are. No experience with yoga, meditation, or "retreat stuff" required.

Q: Do I have to share personal things out loud?
A: Only if you want to. Many exercises are private reflection. You control your level of participation.

Q: What if I can't do yoga or certain movements?
A: Everything is adaptable to your body. We offer modifications and alternatives. Movement is invitation, not obligation.

Q: Can I bring a friend?
A: Absolutely! You each need to register individually, but coming with a friend/sister is welcome.

Q: Will this be recorded or photographed?
A: We take a few group photos (optional participation). Individual sharing and personal moments are never recorded. Your privacy is sacred.

Q: What makes this different from other retreats?
A: Three things: (1) Culturally responsive—designed BY and FOR Black women, (2) Intimate size—max 20 women for real connection, (3) Integration focus—you leave with tools, not just inspiration.

Q: What is the refund policy for the event?
A: There are no refunds, but we will honor your ticket for an upcoming event or The Winter Solstice Experience 2026.
