Thursday, December 19th
7 - 9 pm EST
on Zoom

As the holiday season approaches, how are you preparing to close out the year? What do you find yourself connecting with during this time of reflection and celebration? The winter solstice marks the return of light, a symbol of renewal and new beginnings. In many traditions, this is a turning point, a moment to pause, reflect, and plant seeds for the future. What parts of your life are ready to be released, and what intentions do you want to nurture as we move into the new year?

Join us for Yana Holiday Hangout: Reflect and Reconnect, designed to help you center yourself during this busy season. Through mindfulness and contemplative practices, we’ll create space to focus on what truly matters as we prepare for the next cycle of growth. This is also a chance to reconnect with fellow Yana members in a supportive circle of shared experiences.

We’re inviting all past Yana participants to join us! Whether you've been part of Yana before or are curious about reconnecting, we’d love to hear from you. What topics are on your mind? Relationships, purpose, spirituality, or navigating life’s challenges - let’s explore together.

Event Details:

• When: December 19th, 7-9 PM

• Where: Zoom (and connected in spirit)

• Who: All Yana members—old friends and new faces

• How: Add us to your calendar and show up with an open heart

• Why: Because being together feels good, and we all need that right now

Bonus Event:

If you haven’t already registered for Roshi Joan Halifax’s talk on December 13th, now’s the time! Roshi Joan is a mentor and teacher whose wisdom touches deeply on what it means to live with kindness in a world that often feels divided. This event is free or by donation—don’t miss it!

We hope you can join us for both events. Let’s come together to reflect, renew, and reconnect.

With love,

Maxine, Andrew, and the Yana Team
