Celebrate the Year of the Fire Horse with an embodied practice of qigong and community. Chinese New Year began on February 17, 2026, ushering in this dynamic year. In the Chinese zodiac, the Fire Horse symbolizes vitality, playfulness, connection, and forward
momentum. Its energy invites boldness, movement, and inspired presence.

This special gathering begins with a brief introduction, followed by a one-hour guided qigong practice to ground and activate vital energy. We’ll close with time for questions and informal connection. Open to all levels. Come move, reflect, and celebrate this vibrant year with intention.

Join Kate Stinson of Engaging Nature for Eat Your Weeds: an adventure starting at Thrive Yoga & Wellness and making a roundtrip to Water Board Park. You'll meet the bold, unstoppable weeds thriving in sidewalks, alleys, and green spaces—thrusting their gifts of nutrition and wellness toward us, whether we notice or not.

You'll learn safe identification while practicing honorable harvest principles (yes, even with abundant urban plants!). Packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, these assertive plants are nutrient-dense food and medicine. We can never predict exactly what we'll find—only that we'll discover something delicious and useful.

After our 2-mile forage, we'll return to Thrive's kitchen to wash, prepare, and taste our finds. Depending on what we find, we’ll make a salad, a bean dish, and possibly a tea (all of which are naturally vegan, free of gluten and dairy).

What to expect: Be ready for 2+ miles of urban strolling with an incline and plenty of bending to examine plants. Wear sturdy, water-resistant shoes, layers (including for rain) and bring sun protection and water—we'll provide gathering containers and kitchen equipment.

Join Kate Stinson of Engaging Nature on a prairie stroll to get to know they prairie and oak savannah a little better, and to honor camas, a small bloom with a big impact.

Immerse in a restorative sound bath, aligning with spring’s rhythms, root yourself, awaken gently, and flow with the Earth’s subtle energy. 

​

As the Earth rises into the gentle momentum of mid-spring, our bodies mirror this cyclical rhythm of awakening, expanding, and calling us to inhabit each moment fully. This restorative sound bath is an invitation to tune into the subtle pulses of life both within and around you, supporting your natural cycles of growth, release, and renewal.

Through carefully woven tones, vibrations, and harmonics, sound becomes a guide, helping your nervous system settle, your body soften, and your mind open. Each resonance aligns with the natural rhythms of the Earth, inviting you to root deeply, awaken gently, and flow with the unfolding energy of the season.
