Gather your favorite self-care supplies for this cozy collective experience of self-care while being serenaded by live harp!

What is a self-care serenade?

Imagine a cozy, intimate, artsy space filled with live, improvised, meditative music. Your favorite books and self-care supplies are spread around you. You've brought a fluffy pillow and blanket and are finally taking the time to prioritize yourself how we so often are pressured away from doing.

There's a cozy group spread around the room also quietly napping, doing yoga, reading, making art, meditating, and journaling. You've started the evening with a moment to share with each other as much and as little as you each wanted to mention about life, and you're feeling seen. You're not alone in the pressures and injustices of the world, and this room is full of people committed to protecting your right to rest. And you're so grateful they've made this time for themselves too.

Now soft, live music is playing and this time is yours. The whole priority of this event is to have a supported chance to custom-craft a self-care practice that's exactly what your body needs, and exactly what your heart needs too. An hour is set aside ahead of you for being serenaded by improvised harp music without commitments or distractions, with full permission to make this time whatever you need. The music and community and soft lighting all saying "We celebrate you choosing to care for yourself!"
