Lotus Gathering 2023 Recap
WORKSHOPS & ACTIVITIES
KNOW THYSELF
Introduction to Human Design
Join Alizabeth Grace of Ananda Embodied for a conversation about human design, a comprehensive system for understanding your personality, energetic aura, and tendencies, to better navigate all aspects of your life. Weaving together principles from various spiritual systems, including The I Ching, astrology, Kabbalah, the Hindu-Brahmin chakra system, and quantum physics, human design uses precise details of your birthto provide a body graph, or a blueprint of who you are.
Reflections and Revelations
What we see in the mirror is often seen through the lens of our programming, cultural ideas of beauty and what we should "be," personal insecurities, and others perceptions that we have chosen, usually unconsciously, to internalize. This powerful workshop, led by Life Coach Amanda Fowler and author of "A Little High Vibe A Little Fuck It: 30 Days to Drop The Mediocre Bullshit and Start Living Your Best Life," asks us to look beyond those as we engage in mirror work to create a truer and more helpful reflection of ourselves and reveal deeper personal truths.
Discovering Your Love Language(s)
Based on Dr. Gary Chapman’s book “The Five Love Languages: The Secret to Love That Lasts," this experiential workshop takes the approach that finding and appreciating your own love language(s) is just as valuable as knowing anyone else’s. Understanding what you need to fill your “love tank” will help improve all your relationships, including partners, family, friends, coworkers, and acquaintances. In this workshop, you will learn the love language basics, why they are important, and how to apply them in your life. Each participant will complete the Love Language Profile to determine their own love language, followed by a round-table discussion of each language. Finally, we will talk about how to use your new knowledge to help those you love to love you better. Join Becky Bolt, a retired wildlife ecologist and co-facilitator of The Way Through and the People of Diversity spiritual community for this study into the five love languages.
LOVE THYSELF
The Art and Skill of Holding Space
What does it mean to hold space? How do you hold space effectively for both yourselves and others, and what is the impact of doing that? Join Alizabeth Grace of Ananda Embodied and Reiki and hypnotherapy practitioner Angel Marie Smith for this foundational workshop on how to be present for yourself and others as you come together to heal and grow.
The Way Through: Rage/Anger Flush
We can’t rewrite our story or create a new story until we can own the events and circumstances of our life. Let’s gather the hurts, pains, and betrayals that have been invading our lives, and own and release them once and for all. Love, forgiveness, and gratitude are the healing salve of this process. This workshop by Scott Donat begins with a guided meditation to gather the rage, anger, hurt, shame, ect., that is stored in our bodies. We'll move those through those feelings through drumming and self-expression. We'll follow that with a four-corners love expression exercise based on the Hawaiian prayer of Hoʻoponopono, which translates loosely into "I am sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I love you." There will be some time at the end for debriefing and processing.
Harm Reduction as Self-Love
Harm reduction encompasses a range of practices designed to reduce the negative impacts associated with many of the behaviors that are common at festivals and other gatherings. But harm reduction is about more about than staying safe; it’s also about recognizing the opportunity to practice self-love and make conscious, educated choices about what you put in your body and how you choose to show up in the world. DJ Dharmadrum will lead this chat on how to elevate and connect, to be fully present in the moments that fuel you.
Non-Sexual Intimacy: A Mirror Work Workshop
In this mirror work workshop, we'll learn to separate what we see from what we think from what we feel. We'll first bring awareness to how we see ourselves and others. Next, we'll learn and experience allowing ourselves to be seen. Then, we'll step into simple intimacy and experience each other in non-sexual connection. Finally, there will be time to share about the experience and how it brings a deeper understanding of the self and others. Facilitator Scott Donat , otherwise known as The FootGuy, is a reflexology practitioner who is passionate about leading people to discover and learn the story that their bodies and subconscious are trying to tell. He leads retreats on The Way Through, a powerful modality for processing stored emotions and releasing trauma.
MENstrual Awareness: Navigating Relationships with a Menstruating Partner
This workshop is geared at men, queer women, and couples, but a great intro to relationships and the cycle for women that lack a depth of cycle awareness as well. Join Chloe Starr as she dives into the cycle as it pertains to dating, sex, and cohabitation, and how to use it to deepen romantic/sexual relationships.
Street Giraffe: Nonviolent Communication in Daily Life
Nonviolent communication is the language of life. If you translate it to Hebrew and back again, it translates as the language that brings us closer together. We will be finding way to speak about our feelings and needs in our everyday conversations through cards and parachute play. Join Marcile Powers, a candidate for Resonant Healing Practitioner with over 200 hours of training in nonviolent violent communication, in learning to express yourself in a way that extends compassion to yourself and others.
Expansion through Integration
Lotus gathering is more than just an event — it’s a powerful, transformative experience. This workshop is designed to help you get the most out of your time here. Goodbye, post-weekend slump… hello FULL recovery! The days and weeks following a music gathering provide an opportunity for life-changing integration and transformation. Music, travel, and new experiences create the perfect storm of neuroplasticity, creativity, authentic expression, and connection. This workshop by Emily Jenkins, Emily Jenkins, a registered nurse and wellness coach with six years of clinical experience in neuroscience and background in yoga, meditation, and spirituality, will leave you with the tools to embrace adversity, cultivate change, and recover quickly and effectively post-event.
HEAL THYSELF
Party with Purpose: Sacred Cacao Ceremony by Ananda Embodied
Step into the realm of ancient wisdom with "Honoring the Medicine: Sacred Cacao Ceremony" by Ananda Embodied and Party with Purpose, a collective movement in the electronic music event scene started by Ananda Embodied promoting conscious intention, personal growth, presence, and spirituality. Beyond simply partying, they inspire individuals to view these events as transformative experiences for self-discovery and connection. With deep reverence, we invite you to experience the time-honored tradition of cacao, cherished by Central and South American indigenous cultures for millennia. This communal gathering is a sacred space where we come together to connect with the Earth, our own hearts, and one another. During this transformative ceremony, we explore the knowledge and many benefits of cacao, delving into intentional practices that enhance your connection with this sacred plant medicine. Journey briefly through the Mayan calendar, and align with the energy of the specific day, infusing our gathering with its resonance. As we partake in this ceremonial experience, immerse yourself in the enchanting strains of intentional medicine music, serving as a harmonious backdrop to anchor us in the frequencies of the sacred. Join us on a journey of connection, healing, and inner exploration through the art of cacao.
Lunar Akashic Vow Release
Do you have unconscious contracts passed down through the familial line that no longer serve you? Do you have unconscious thoughts that pop in no matter how many practice positive affirmations you follow up with? This group is for those ready to release their contracts. Marcile Powers, a candidate for Resonant Healing Practitioner with over 200 hours of training in nonviolent violent communication and an internationally published artist and a light-hearted soul making shadow work playful and enjoyable, will work with participants to figure out their stuck Akashic vows that can follow us down generations or across different lifetimes. By clearing these energies, you will find you have more choices and options available to you in your life organically. We will enjoy a group burn of the contracts and leave with our blessings from our essential selves (nonviolent communication term for higher self as there is no hierarchy in NVC.)
Breathwork Alchemy
Embark on a profound journey of self-transformation with TELOS369 in this powerful offering called “Breathwork Alchemy.” Breathwork serves as a potent catalyst for healing, transmutation, and the manifestation of your deepest desires. Guided by the wisdom of ancient alchemy and energetic principles, this workshop offers a sacred space where you can harness the power of your breath to unlock and release all that no longer serves you. Through the alchemical process, you'll discover the keys to anchoring yourself in the reality you aspire to create. Join us for this transformative experience, where you'll embrace the full potential of your breath and step into a new, empowered version of yourself.
Where Emotions Live: Finding and Freeing Emotional Energy from the Body
In this workshop, we'll dive into energy and emotions. Join Ebonie Young to learn what emotions mean, and where can they get stored/trapped in the body. You'll also learn how to identify where you might have trapped energy using your intuition, and how to release it through your governing meridian line, ultimately allowing you to avoid storing negative emotions in the body, where they can cause disease.
The Path of Gratitude & Forgiveness
Self-care isn’t just about treating ourselves well, but also about doing the hard work of being present with challenging feelings so we can move past them to align with the highest version of ourselves. We'll then talk about the power of gratitude and forgiveness as a way of reframing how we look at past wounds to free ourselves from pain. Cynthia Gomez of The Gaia Revolution will guide us through an impactful visualization exercise to free ourselves from anger, shame, and resentment towards ourselves and others, allowing ourselves to feel lighter and freer than ever. Weaving a cacao ceremony into the experience of gifting ourselves forgiveness, we'll release both that which no longer serves us and positive intentions into the universe by way of air and fire. Take time to write what you’d like to release, and watch that which is best surrendered be carried up in smoke during this very special burn.
Healing Journeys: NLP, Hypnotherapy, and Psychedelic Integration
Join us for a transformative talk where we discuss combining the power of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and hypnotherapy with the potential healing benefits of psychedelic integration.

Crisis = Opportunity
This might seem counterintuitive at first, but once you take a step back and look at the bigger picture, you might realize that it’s rare to have the motivation to make changes when things are seemingly going well. When we’re in a comfort zone, we can become complacent. When a crisis hits, it can lead to suffering. However, when we shift our mindset to ask ourselves: “What is the opportunity here?” we avoid letting the crisis pull us down into negativity and instead swing into flow. This approach will help us learn and grow from it, and will transmute our pain into a positive energy of transformation and elevation. Join Germoney on an interactive journey to explore this mindset and some methods of active self-love, which can aid us in establishing positive daily habits, make us more resilient to crisis, and enable us to fulfill this shift in mindset so that we can be the change that is needed for humanity's awakening and ascension past our most pressing challenges.
Feed Your Fire: Using Your Passion to Fuel Your Life
Join two of our resident artists — Music Producer Chords & Arrows, otherwise known as Dany Fuentes, and Visionary Painter Passion Flower, otherwise known as Becca Dicken — for a chat on how to make the time and energy to pursue passions amidst the constraints of the daily grind and how to find the inspiration within when the external world is screaming for attention. Your future self is waiting. Your masterpiece is waiting.
Birthing the Phoenix: The Art of Resilience
Life is beautiful, but sometimes difficult, and when the challenges keep on coming, it can be hard to bounce back. But there is an art and science to resilience. Buddhism teaches that the obstacles ARE the path. Everything we go through can either be more baggage to carry or raw creative material for the masterpiece of our lives.

Dragon Daoyin Qui Gong
Daoyin is a type of qi gong that’s more focused on cleansing energy vs circulating/condensing.

Some props will be provided but are limited, so bring your own.
Sacred Movement with Flow Art
Flow arts movement is an intention-based practice. Using the elements, visualization, and sacred geometry, it is a form of self-expression, dedication, and decompression, and a way of life for many. Using flow arts movement is to interact with and activate portals of light/vortex of energies to open up all that is meant to flow into our lives within divine timing and for the benefit the collective. During this workshop, you'll learn about gridline work, practices of old, such as portal magick, and the use of flow arts in various indigenous cultures. After a short meditation, you will be invited to set intentions and participate.

Embracing a Sustainable Permaculture Lifestyle
Permaculture aims to achieve a sustainable balance between human beings and nature. But what does embracing a permaculture lifestyle mean, and why is it more important than ever?
