Identity Death Café | Session Two: The Shedding

11.19.2025 6:00-8:00PM

A free community ritual for releasing the layers we built to survive.

The Shedding is the second gathering in our Identity Death Café series, and it’s devoted to those protective layers we’ve outgrown.
The ones we’re grateful for…
and the ones we’re ready to put down.

This evening invites you to explore the soft, tender release of:
🖤 performances
🖤 personas
🖤 survival strategies
🖤 people-pleasing
🖤 perfectionism
🖤 emotional armor
🖤 masks that helped you belong

There’s no pressure to share. Listening in silence is participation.

What we’ll do:
– Arrive with tea + calm music
– Ground together
– Explore reflection prompts about the masks/layers we’re shedding
– Optional sharing circle
– A symbolic release ritual (tear, dissolve, or lay to rest what you’re letting go)
– Close with breath, song + gratitude

Accessibility:
The Space is located on the 2nd floor.
If you have mobility needs and would like to attend virtually, we will gladly set up a Zoom option.
Sensory breaks, stims, alternative seating, and quiet presence are always welcome.

For every name. Every body. Every self. Every rebirth.

Fridays 3-4:30pm

The bodies primal language is movement. The body knows how to communicate, it has always known. Our work is in how to listen. To honor. Our ancient and innate wisdom. I invite you to consider for yourself where in your life it is easy to show up with presence and care, and when it is difficult. Where in the body do you find yourself most connected, and most distant?

We will use our yoga flow to deepen our connection to certain areas of the body and energy systems each week and then linger there with writing invitations to follow.

Make Fridays special. Make Fridays yours.

Creating safety in and through authentic expression:

we will move through the 7 chakras, one by one, each week a different chakra, yoga sequence, & writing prompts (plus tea, always tea)

WEDNESDAY NIGHT MEDITATION

5:45pm - 6:15pm  Gentle Movement

6:30pm - 7:30pm Meditation & Reflections

Meditation is a state of mind that is open, receptive, balanced, and grounded.  Our emphasis is to clarify the different attitudes and understandings that can inform our perceptions. This allows our practice to be durable and applicable to daily life - and is especially useful to develop a greater sense of ease and well-being in the relationship that we have with ourself and within those that we encounter every day.

Please feel free to join for either or both sessions.

What to Bring

We provide sitting cushions, chairs, and blankets. You are also welcome to bring any seating or additional things, like shawls or blankets, that are comfortable for you.

Accessibility

No experience or level of fitness needed - we would love for those 14+ and all walks of life to join as called. As we cannot offer childcare, please leave little ones at home.
