Lift Your Gaze: A 5Rhythms

Sacramento - 6 Nov 2026 to 8 Nov 2026
Majica Alba

 To witness.

?

To look up long enough to notice the life that is already here.

The breath moving through the body.

The person across from us.

The ache, the joy, the tenderness of being alive.

?

In a world that constantly pulls our attention away, this workshop invites us back into direct experience through the moving meditation practice of 5Rhythms.

Together we will explore presence, awareness, and embodied attention, not as ideas, but as lived experience.

?

A practice of returning.

A practice of seeing.

A practice of lifting the gaze.

?

?

Prerequisite: None. All workshop hours contribute to 5Rhythms
