The Art of Wintering | FREE Open House

We Thrive 161 Front St, Belleville, Ontario, Canada

As the days shorten and you feel the “pull” of winter to go inward, come join us at our 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲, where we will explore the concept of 𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜. We invite you to embrace the wisdom of winter. Too often, busy schedules, holiday overwhelm, and New Year expectations keep us in a frenzied state during the winter. All the while our body-mind-soul is asking for rest. Winter is a natural “fallow” or rest period. Nature shows us this. It is an incubator for the spring. When we embrace the winter season and get reflective, gentle, and restorative – we fill our cups. Then we have the energy to create, serve, and connect when we are ready. We are opening the doors to our cozy home at We Thrive and inviting you, your friends, and your family to join us! This is a drop-in event. Although registrations are much-appreciated xo. Enjoy FREE workshops and discussion circles in our beautiful studio. Indulge in FREE shoulder massages! Tour our gorgeous centre. Enter to WIN all kinds of giveaways! Meet our incredible team! Ask our practitioners your questions and learn from them. This is a drop-in event. Please drop in between 4:00 – 8:00pm. There are lots of fun things to do, even if you don’t wish to participate in the studio. We appreciate you registering your plan to attend at the link below. This is a courtesy and is not required to attend. See Link for more info: https://wethrivewellness.ca/events/the-art-of-wintering-free-open-house/
