About this Event

This week we have a special feature Producer/DJ, Arash Salehe, aka ConsciousVerse. His mysterious musical mastery will enchant our soundscape and take us on our journey into infinity and beyond. We will also be welcoming Katy Rose guiding yoga, Malia Powers leading our opening and closing circles, and WayneBow and Kristina DaSilva supporting with the closing meditation.
