Upcoming Service

Summer Solstice Sound Bath

June 21, 2026

WE WILL BE BACK IN THE SANCTUARY!!

As we try to make sense of our changing world and move through a time of transformation at Wildflower, the Summer Solstice invites us into a time of rest and rejuvenation. We welcome Sandee Conroy, the Singing Bowl Lady, who will guide us through a sonic experience known as a Sound Bath. While we acknowledge the promise of the Solstice: the days will once again shorten, the nights will lengthen and cool, our collective energy for transformation will strengthen as we rest together.

** NOTE: You are welcome, but not required, to bring cushions to make yourself comfortable, or floor mats if you would like to experience the sound bath laying down. We will have some extra yoga  mats for your use. We will provide ear plugs for those with sound sensitivity. The therapeutic vibrations in sound bathing can move powerful emotional and physical sensations through the body. As always, we encourage Wildflowers and our visitors to care for themselves as needed during this and all services.

Our Special Guest:  Sandee Conroy, Singing Bowl Lady

Singing Bowls entered Sandee's life in 2001. Through personal study and Time, she has developed a powerful method of sound meditation.  Visit her website to learn more:  Singing Bowl Lady.

Drum Circle: After the service starting at about 1:15 pm, we will have a drum circle, a Wildflower tradition to mark significant times on the earth’s calendar. Join us to celebrate the Summer Solstice with rhythms.

Children and youth in kindergarten through 12th grade will be enjoying their summer program after being present in the sanctuary for the first part of the service.
