Join us for self-care, reflection, and meaningful connection in these Wild Women Full Moon Circles led by Nikki Lock and Eve Carty. In this safe, supported, and sacred space, take this opportunity to unwind, open up and share your wisdom with other like-minded women. Now is the time to awaken your wild woman within, gently step into your power and discover the magic of the full moon. Each full moon has her own energy and characteristics that make her unique. The Moon has been integral in marking the passage of time and the changing of seasons. Throughout history she has been a guide to planting, harvesting and celebrating. She is a symbol of change as her illumination guides us toward our dreams and aspirations.
Each gathering will consist of grounding breathwork, mindful movement, empowering full moon rituals, community connection and special practices connected to the energies of each specific full moon.

Restorative Yoga & Reiki Drumming
Sunday, May 31, 2026 From 2:00-4:00 pm
Self-care investment: $40 per person
Guided by Eve Carty, RYT-500
Join us for a deeply calming and grounding experience of mindful movement and drum healing in this specialty class. We’ll begin with Restorative Yoga, using supportive props and longer-held, gentle poses to invite your body into a state of rest and release. This practice encourages deep relaxation, soothes the nervous system, and helps prepare both body and mind for the healing that follows.
Afterward, you’ll settle into stillness for the Reiki Drumming portion, enhanced by other sound healing instruments like the ocean drum and chimes. Reiki Drumming blends universal life force energy (Reiki) with the rhythmic sound waves of the medicine drum, amplifying the healing effect.
This powerful combination helps you reconnect with your inner wisdom, ease stress, and restore balance. Let the drum’s vibrations ground you, open your heart, and guide you back to a state of presence and peace.

Harvesting Healing:
A Seasonal Workshop for Release and Renewal
Returning Fall 2026
Self-care investment: Free Event for Esquimalt Community
Guided by Eve Carty and Nikki Lock
Celebrate this FREE community event with hosts Eve Carty and Nikki Lock. As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, mid-November invites us to pause, reflect, and nurture our inner landscape. Join us for a calming and restorative 3-hour workshop designed to help you release what you no longer need and set heartfelt intentions for the season ahead.
We’ll begin with a Welcoming Circle, gathering in community as we take a collective breath and settle into the space. Through a gentle Releasing Ceremony, you’ll be guided to let go of old energy, patterns, or worries—making room for what’s next. An Oracle Card pull will offer insight and inspiration, helping illuminate your path forward.
You’ll then create your own Seasonal Intention Jar—a meaningful, hands-on craft where you’ll fill a small jar with natural elements and personal affirmations, representing what you’re ready to call in as winter approaches.
To integrate your intentions and soothe the nervous system, you’ll be invited to rest deeply during a Reiki-infused Sound Bath, where healing vibrations and energy work will help ground and restore your body, mind, and spirit.
We’ll close with a final Gratitude Circle, sending your intentions into the season with warmth and care.
All materials will be provided. No experience necessary—just bring an open heart and a willingness to receive. Tea and snacks are provided.
This community event is funded by Neighborhood Small Grants (NSG) through Quadra Village Community Centre. Please note that event photos will be taken to be shared on the NSG website. If you do not want to be photographed, please let Eve or Nikki know in advance or let them know at the event.
