Nature Spirits Yoga Series this summer at Harvest Preserve. Check it out!
Nature Spirits: Yoga & Sacred Ceremony is a 7-week outdoor series held at the breathtaking Harvest Preserve in Iowa City. Each gathering is a doorway into a different element of the natural world, woven together through yoga, meditation, and sacred ceremony.
No two sessions are alike. Some will call you out under the cover of night as we greet the Spirit of the Buck Moon; others will greet you at first light with the Spirit of the Rising Sun. We will connect with the Nature Spirits throughout various areas in the living landscape of Harvest Preserve — Spirit of the Trees in the forest, Spirit of the Water at the pond, Spirit of the Stones at the sacred stone circle.
At the heart of this series is an animist understanding of the world — the ancient, cross-cultural recognition that all of nature is alive, ensouled, and in relationship with us. The trees, the stars, the stones — each carries their own presence, their own wisdom, their own spirit. This series is an invitation to create connection & conversation with the living world.
Our practice is open to all levels — whether you are new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, whether you have attended ceremonies before or are simply curious. What matters is a willingness to show up, be present, and connect — with nature, with community, and with yourself.
Harvest Preserve is typically a private, members-only sanctuary. This series is a rare opportunity for the public to experience its magic.
