✨ Thank You for Starting 2025 with IGNITE! 🔥

It’s been a couple of weeks since IGNITE: THE COCOON, and we’re still buzzing with gratitude for every single one of you who joined us to welcome the year with deep transformation, connection, and REST! 🙌

✨2025 is a 9 year in numerology – a time of completion, reflection, and letting go of what no longer serves us. Together, we embraced this energy, setting the tone for a year of growth, alignment, and stepping into our full potential. And let’s not forget – while the calendar may say it’s the new year, we know the real new year begins with Spring. Until then, we’re in the cocoon, preparing for our rebirth.

Swipe through the carousel to relive the moments & heartfelt connections💜

We also want to acknowledge the unexpected electrical issues that made the venue colder than we’d hoped – we’re truly sorry for the discomfort and have taken steps to ensure it doesn’t happen again.

🔥 Big things are on the horizon! 🔥

✨ Winter Solstice – IGNITE Your Inner Light ✨

The Winter Solstice is a time to pause, reflect, and honor the longest night of the year. At IGNITE, we embrace this moment of stillness as a chance to connect with ourselves and the cycles of nature. Here are 3 ways to make this Solstice meaningful:

1️⃣ Reflect & Let Go 🔥
Write down what’s been weighing you down this year. Burn the paper safely and feel the release. Just as the sun begins its return, trust that you’re making space for brighter things ahead.

2️⃣ Set Intentions with Purpose 🕯️
Light a candle, sit in quiet reflection, and tune into what truly matters to you. Let this be the spark for what you want to ignite in the months ahead.

3️⃣ Honor the Darkness 🌌
Instead of rushing to “find the light,” embrace the stillness of the night. Go for a walk under the stars, meditate, or simply sit with the beauty of winter. Growth happens in the quiet.

Solstice reminds us: the light always returns. What will you choose to bring into the brighter days ahead? 🔥✨

We are absolutely over the moon to announce we have the amazing Paul Keith Makinson & Amelia Ataba returning to Ignite for our full day rave retreat - IGNITE: THE COCOON - New Year's Day Rave Retreat

For those who have seen the magic Paul and Amelia bring to a space, know that you are in for a treat with this one. And for those not so familiar, get ready for a beautiful journey back to your heart ❤️

Kirtan is an ancient practice with roots in the Bhakti yoga tradition of India, which has been sung for thousands of years as a form of devotion and connection to the divine. This communal practice involves call-and-response chanting of sacred mantras, accompanied by harmonium and other instruments.

During kirtan, you may feel a profound sense of connection—not only to those around you but also to something far greater. The repetitive chanting of mantras helps to quiet the mind, creating space for inner peace and presence. As the music builds and flows, emotions often arise—joy, love, and even gentle tears of release.

Kirtan isn’t about singing perfectly; it’s about surrendering to the energy of the music and the sacred sound vibrations. The practice opens the heart, lightens the spirit, and can leave you uplifted, connected, and deeply nourished.

Whether you’re new or experienced, kirtan invites you into a timeless tradition of unity and devotion.

If you'd like to join us for what promises to be a profound day of transformation, head to our event page linked in this post!
