🌿 Spring into Service: Help Us Refresh Althea’s Grounds! 🌸
Saturday, May 2 | 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
We are getting our community together to spruce up the grounds AND the children's room at our beloved Althea Center on Saturday, May 9th, from 9 to noon. We look forward to a pizza party after completing our work, thanks to the Board!
If you are able to join us, please let Kristen Engelke know.
If you have garden tools to use, please bring them along, but we will do our best to be prepared with necessities.
Thanks in advance for sharing your time, talent, and treasure. You are valued and appreciated!
Experience Deep Restoration at Althea’s Gong Bath!
Step into a sanctuary of sound with Gong and Sound Sculptor Gregg Wilkins. Be immersed in the majestic tones of the Paiste Earth Gong and sacred instruments as waves of vibration wash over you.
This powerful sound healing journey shifts your brainwaves into deeply meditative Theta and Delta states, ideal for releasing stress, supporting physical healing, and awakening spiritual insight. It’s a profound way to reset your nervous system and rejuvenate your soul.
Event Details:
Sunday, July 28th from 12:30 – 1:30 PM
Registration | $25
Why Attend?
- Release stress and tension
- Awaken deep inner calm
- Open space for clarity and insight
- Reconnect with your body, heart, and spirit
Return to Oneness is a gentle, soul centered practice designed to bring us out of the noise of the mind and back into connection with the body, breath, and Spirit within. Through intentional movement, conscious breathwork, meditation, and moments of stillness, we’ll create space to soften, listen inward, and reconnect with the deeper presence that exists beneath our everyday thoughts and experiences.
Each class will be an invitation to meet yourself exactly where you are. Practices will be accessible and guided with an emphasis on presence rather than performance, allowing movement and breath to become forms of prayer, connection, and self discovery. No previous yoga or meditation experience is necessary.
Facilitator Mariah Gatt is a spiritual mentor, somatic practitioner, yoga and meditation teacher, and writer devoted to helping people return to deeper connection with themselves and the Divine within. Her work weaves together yoga, breathwork, meditation, somatic practices, spirituality, and compassionate self inquiry to support greater presence, freedom, and wholeness. Originally from Malta and now based in Denver, Mariah believes that healing is not about becoming someone new, but remembering the wholeness and wisdom that have always existed within us.

THE GIFT OF GRIEF
Finding Comfort, Connection & Peace During the Holidays
The holidays can be especially difficult when someone or something we love is missing.
Whether you're grieving a loved one, a relationship, or a life that has changed, you don't have to navigate the season alone.
During This Workshop, We Will Explore:
-
Honoring Our Grief: Understanding that grief is a natural expression of love and loss.
-
Navigating the Holidays: Finding meaningful ways to care for ourselves when traditions and celebrations feel different.
-
The Sacred Gift of Remembrance: Honoring those we love while making room for new experiences.
-
Permission to Feel: Releasing expectations and allowing ourselves to experience both sorrow and joy.
-
Finding Peace Within: Through guided meditation, reflection, and spiritual practices.
A Sacred Space for Healing
Through heartfelt conversation, gentle reflection, and a guided meditation, participants will be invited to reconnect with the wisdom of the heart.
There is no timetable for grief, no perfect way to heal, and no expectation to be anything other than who you are in this moment.
You do not have to walk through grief alone.
Come as you are. Bring your memories, your love, and your willingness to embrace the possibility of peace.
Grief is not the absence of love. It is one of the ways love continues to speak.
Join us for a sacred two-hour workshop offering compassionate conversation, reflection, guided meditation, and meaningful ways to honor your grief while finding moments of peace.
Sunday, December 20 | 1:00–3:00 PM

The Emergence Althea
Why Crystal Singing Bowls?
The rich, resonant tones of crystal singing bowls create a peaceful soundscape that invites the body to relax and the mind to settle. Many people experience reduced stress, greater mental clarity, deeper relaxation, and a renewed sense of balance after even a brief session. Whether you're new to meditation or simply need a peaceful pause in your week, this immersive sound experience offers a gentle invitation to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.
Benefits of Crystal Singing Bowls
- Calm the Nervous System
The sustained tones and vibrations encourage deep relaxation, helping shift the body from the "fight or flight" stress response into the "rest and restore" state associated with the parasympathetic nervous system.
- Reduce Stress & Anxiety
Several small studies on sound meditation have found participants reported lower levels of tension, anxiety, anger, and fatigue after sessions. Many people also notice a greater sense of emotional ease and mental clarity afterward.
- Support Mindfulness
The resonant sounds naturally draw attention into the present moment, making meditation easier for beginners who find it difficult to quiet a busy mind.
- Promote Restful Sleep
Many participants report sleeping more soundly after sound meditation because of the deep state of relaxation it can foster.
- Encourage Emotional Release
The spacious, immersive experience can provide an opportunity to process emotions, let go of mental clutter, and reconnect with a sense of inner peace.
-Whole-Body Experience
Unlike listening to music through headphones, crystal bowls fill the room with sound waves that can be physically felt as well as heard, creating an immersive sensory experience.
