Hello Beautiful Heart Center Community,
As we step into the embrace of summertime, my heart feels the warmth of the sun right alongside you. This season invites us to wander outdoors, breathe deeply, explore freely, and savor nature in her fullest expression. There is something so alive about this time of year — a gentle reminder that we, too, are meant to expand, play, and feel the light on our skin.
As we look ahead to the coming months, I’m thrilled for the radiant energy we’ll be welcoming in together. Our Ecstatic Sun Solstice Celebration on June 20th will be a powerful way to ring in the season — a moment to honor the turning of the wheel and ignite our inner fire.
We also have some beautiful offerings unfolding this summer:
- Reiki training on July 11 and 12
- Lion's Gate Portal Celebration on August 8 — a truly special event where we will throw down a canvas and paint with natural mediums, guided by our bodies, our hearts, and the vibrations of our souls. This will be a journey of expression, liberation, and communal magic, and I would love for you to be part of it.
As the days grow longer and many of us spend more time outdoors, we’ll be making some gentle adjustments to our class schedule. Daytime classes will be a bit more limited during the summer months, allowing us to align with the natural rhythms of the season.
Theo and I are also continuing to grow our community, and we would love your ideas. If there are offerings, experiences, or invitations that you feel would inspire your friends or loved ones to join us at The Heart Center, please share them. Your voice and vision matter deeply to us.
We are also working with the county to create a greenspace in the empty lot next to us. Look for blank heart papers on the tables to share your voice with us next time you come in. We need personal stories, names, and addresses to make this happen for the White Center Community!
We look forward to seeing you this summer — to playing, growing, laughing, creating, and feeling vibrantly alive together.
From our hearts to yours,
Asha & Theo

Free Community Meditation
First Saturday of the Month
No experience necessary.
Saturday, June 6
12-1 pm
A soft landing for your mind, body, and spirit
As we gather in this season of renewal, we honor the quiet courage it takes to bloom. Spring reminds us that emergence is not a performance but a natural unfolding—soft, steady, and guided from within.
Join us for a nourishing community class designed to settle the nervous system and reconnect you with your inner guide. We begin with gentle, accessible movement to loosen tension and awaken subtle energy pathways. Move into breathwork to anchor the mind and prepare for mantra meditation. The practice closes with spacious deep relaxation, allowing your whole being to integrate, restore, and reset.
This class is open to all bodies, all backgrounds, and all levels of experience. No need for special clothes; props and (a limited number of ) mats are provided. Come as you are; breathe as you are, and leave feeling a little lighter, clearer, and connected.
Donation of any size is appreciated.

ABOUT THE FACILITATOR
Kaila Hall, founder of Freqs of Love, a holistic wellness practice in Seattle, WA. She is a certified Reiki Master, sound practitioner, intuitive healer, creative spirit, and former corporate dweller turned energy worker and space holder.
For years, she's lived in the rhythm of overextending, poor boundaries, and burnout: long hours, high pressure, and little space to feel, thinking she was doing everything right on the outside but felt completely disconnected from her inner world.
Energy work found her at the right moment. Through Reiki, sound, and intentional practices, she remembered something she'd forgotten: healing doesn’t come from fixing, chasing, or avoiding. It comes through inner connection and compassion; in softening, presence, and letting ourselves be seen.
Today, she holds space for others on their own return. For the givers who forget to receive, for the caregivers, the busy minds, and the curious. She believes deeply in the body’s innate intelligence and the truth that to see the light, there must be darkness. And in both, we are whole: As above, so below.

Resounding Freedom
with Sarah Lucie
Saturday, June 13
4-5:30 p.m.
$37/person OR
$27/person when you bring a friend
who has not attended before.
"My voice was never meant to sing other people’s songs.”
Resounding Freedom is for people who are ready to stop performing someone else’s version of life and begin listening to their own. People who know there is more aliveness, more expression, more truth available, and are willing to step into a little discomfort to access it.
These gatherings are guided primarily through sound, but they are not about singing well or sounding a certain way. They are about resonance, permission, and expression. Using your own voice, literally and metaphorically, as a doorway back to yourself.
Together we explore what has been quietly blocking your natural expression. As energy moves, you are invited into active exploration. Making noise. Getting curious. Letting yourself be silly, honest, and real.
This is a space to drop the mask, let your weird out, and reconnect with parts of yourself that may have gone quiet.
You will leave feeling clearer, more whole, and more at home in your own voice, ready to create your own path and sing your own song.
Please bring a mat, water, pen, and journal. A blindfold is optional.

Present Sense — Befriending the Now
with Brodie Peterson
Saturday, June 27
2-4 pm
$33
Catch your breath, come to your senses, & befriend the moment. When we bring awareness to our present-moment sensations, we become more able to notice & identify “shapes” that are no longer serving us.
This practice of awareness creates conditions for change and opens up the potential to connect to the very heart of life, a wellspring of renewal and possibility.
To do this in community allows us to practice staying with ourselves while connecting with others – and discovering the profound gift of being truly witnessed.
Present Sense is a two-hour workshop designed to support you in:
- Deepening your connection to yourself and to life
- Building greater capacity for authentic listening and relating
- Nourishing the deeper parts of your being, in community!
Drawing on various wisdom traditions, we will connect with our sense of belonging in the web of life, tend to our nervous systems, and cultivate basic skills for inner work – to practice and play in relationship with self and other.
The workshop will involve some light movement, awareness practices, dyads/triads, and group reflection – nothing is compulsory. Bring a journal, water, and whatever you need to be comfortable :)
ABOUT THE FACILITATOR
Brodie Peterson is devoted to creativity, deep listening, and meeting the unfolding moment. He draws from extensive training and study in self inquiry & group practice, ceremonial containers & energetic literacy, Acceptance and Integration Training™, and 14 years of contemplative practice. He is also an experienced and multifascinated artist with deep roots in the Pacific Northwest. His heart’s desire is to be a vessel of love, harmony, and beauty in the world.
