SPRING EQUINOX
Spring is a season of hope, new beginnings, fresh starts, and renewed vitality. Our mind, thoughts, and imagination are powerful tools that casts a web of energy around us. Call it a vibe, aura, frequency - whatever the word - we are all our own little radio towers emitting data to the rest of the world about what we are willing to accept or reject, attract or repel, give or receive. There is a special Kundalini Meditation that is done around the world from February 20th to March 20th (Spring Equinox) and we want to share it with you so you can draw in the resources you need this Spring for your intentions to take root.
Join us for a special in-person event! We’re headed back to Terracotto Plants in Logan Square to sink into this special sound current to gear up for Spring! Surrounded by all the green, we’ll start with gentle warm ups, deep dive into this specific Kundalini Meditation, and enjoy an extended Sound Journey with crystal bowls, gong, and reiki. Beyond self care, we need more opportunities for community care - let’s move, breathe, and sing together - feeling renewed, motivated, and optimistic for the next season of 2023. Bring a pal and be come ready to make a new one.
Whether you have a daily meditation practice or you’ve never meditated before, come! All are welcome. Sound is so powerful. It will do all the work. All you need to do is get cozy and ready to receive.
What to Bring:
Mat, Blankets, and Cushions
Any other items that will make meditation and relaxation cozy.
Journal, Paper, & Pen (Optional)

Cat Dughi Fritz is an energy healer and Reiki Master Teacher with over a decade of practice, and has experienced a lifelong connection to spirits, nature, and the unexplained (even before she could explain them). She has given healings and Reiki attunements across the US and as far away as Sydney, Australia. Cat enjoys nothing more than geeking out over energy work, metaphysics, and spirituality.

Stephanie Lopez – manages Sat Nam Yoga Chicago (West Loop). Born and raised in Chicago’s Northwest side – Belmont Craigan, Stephanie was introduced to spiritual practices at a very young age by her mother who was an energy healer and yogi.As an adult, Stephanie’s first Kundalini Yoga class was Early Morning Sadhana (2.5 hours of chanting at 4:30am) and a cord struck inside her that had long been forgotten as a child. She is now a certified Kundalini Yoga Teacher herself, and has a deep reverence for her personal Sadhana practice and sound healing. Her intention is to spread the awareness of these spiritual tools and practices to others so that they are able to experience them for themselves. IG @laorquideavioleta
