The sun started hiding behind the horizon at the same time we started walking in to the water. Everybody were holding hands and @mrjohnnycan was leading us through the celebration moment and guiding us into the water and the cold plunge moment. People were looking into each others eyes, high-fiving and hugging each other while uplifting epic music was playing on the background.
What a lovely and powerful moment we experienced in community!
The evening started with a heartwarming connection exercise led by @iamnataliaanja.
Followed by a mindful and grounding meditation led by @carriebedz from @breathe.healing.
@drgenieveburley got the energy moving with some easy and gentle movements. By that point, people started feeling excited about going into the water.
@mrjohnnycan got everybody ready for the water and led the connected breathing practice in the water. You could felt the emotions of everyone at that moment. So much love, gratitude, excitement and friendship in just one place and time.
Lastly, @drgenieveburley got the beach on fire with a dance party that lit up our souls and warmed up our bodies after taking the cold plunge!
We had some gifts from our sponsors for everyone to take home. Cards with a free coffee or a class from @turfliving, a refreshing drink from @drinkrad8, and a bag of healthy and tasty chips from @humblepotatochips.
We had so much gratitude for everyone who attended the event. We raised $2300 towards the house build and now were are getting closer to our goal.
Thank you so much to all our sponsors. This is all possible because of you. We really appreciate your support and the work you do in the community: @theportaltoself @avalonwellbe @lauraramsaydesign @pitchperfectcreative
