Upcoming EventsMeditation in Tampa Bay's Most Beautiful Spaces
There's something different about meditation in nature. The sound of waves during sunrise practice. The energy of earth beneath you at a park's sacred mound. The collective field when hearts synchronize under a full moon.
These Tampa Bay gatherings aren't workshops or classes—they're invitations to pause together. To remember that you're part of something larger. To let the natural world support your inner work.
Each event is small (typically 8-15 people), donation-based, and designed for all experience levels. Whether you've meditated for years or never sat in silence, you're welcome here.
What Makes These Different:
Lunar-timed
Events honor new moon, full moon, and seasonal transitions
Nature-based
Beaches, parks, observation towers—never indoor studios

Donation-based
Pay what feels aligned; financial accessibility matters
Audio-guided
I lead the meditation; no pressure to "perform" or share
Complimentary nourishment
Organic teas and light refreshments may included

Why Meditate in Tampa Bay Nature?
Nature Amplifies Practice
Indoor meditation is valuable. But outdoor meditation in Tampa Bay's beaches, parks, and waterfront spaces adds something you can't replicate: the earth beneath you, the sounds of nature, the living energy of place. Science backs this: forest bathing reduces cortisol, ocean sounds regulate nervous systems, sunrise light balances circadian rhythms. These aren't just pretty locations—they're healing environments.
Community Holds Space
Meditating alone is personal. Meditating in community is powerful. When hearts synchronize in group practice, the field deepens. You access states alone practice rarely reaches. Plus, you're surrounded by others on similar paths—Tampa Bay seekers, introverts, spiritual explorers. The connections formed here often become the supportive community you didn't know you needed.
Lunar Timing Matters
These aren't random events. Each is timed to lunar phases and seasonal transitions—new moons for beginning, full moons for illumination, equinoxes for balance, solstices for turning points. Your body and emotions already follow these rhythms whether you're conscious of them or not. These gatherings simply honor what's already happening energetically.
Types of Gatherings We Offer
Sunrise Meditation & Yoga
When: Monthly, various Tampa Bay beaches and parks
Focus: New beginnings, clarity, energy activation
Best for: Morning people, those seeking motivation, new moon intentions
Early risers know: there’s magic in dawn. Before the world wakes, before your mind fills with to-dos, there’s a window of pure potential. We harness that through guided meditation timed with sunrise.
Perfect for entrepreneurs, creatives, and anyone wanting to start their day in intentional energy rather than reactive hustle.
Full Moon Ceremonies
When: Monthly at the full moon
Focus: Illumination, release, gratitude
Best for: Anyone feeling stuck, seeking clarity, or ready to let go
The full moon illuminates what’s been hidden. We gather to witness what’s become visible—in ourselves, our patterns, our paths—and consciously release what’s complete.
Expect guided meditation, energy work, and intention setting. These tend to be the most transformative events, as full moon energy supports breakthrough.
Beach Meditation & Yoga
When: Seasonally at Tarpon Springs, Clearwater, St. Pete beaches
Focus: Flow, release, emotional clearing
Best for: Water lovers, those processing emotions, introverts
Water is the element of emotion and flow. Beach meditations use ocean sounds, rhythmic waves, and the vastness of the Gulf to support emotional release and return to natural rhythm.
Especially powerful for grief, heartbreak, or times when you feel emotionally stuck. The water helps things move.
Meditation & Yoga in Nature
When: Monthly at Philippe Park, Wall Springs, other sacred natural sites
Focus: Grounding, stability, earth connection
Best for: Anxiety, feeling ungrounded, need for stability
Tampa Bay has hidden gem parks with ancient energy (like Philippe Park’s temple mounds). We use these spaces for grounding practices—connecting to earth element, root chakra, and stable foundation.
Perfect antidote to modern life’s constant stimulation and disconnection from natural world.
Seasonal Celebrations
When: Equinoxes, solstices, seasonal transitions
Focus: Honoring natural cycles, seasonal rituals
Best for: Anyone wanting to live more aligned with nature’s rhythms.
Spring equinox, summer solstice, fall equinox, winter solstice—these aren’t just calendar dates. They’re energetic turning points. We gather to honor these transitions with seasonal rituals, meditations, and celebrations.
How We Gather Together
These events honor certain principles that create safe, sacred space:
Silence is welcome.
You’re never required to share, introduce yourself, or engage socially beyond what feels comfortable. Many participants come for the meditation and leave without speaking—that’s perfectly fine.
All pacing is honored.
If a posture doesn’t work for your body, adjust. If you need to lie down instead of sit, do that. If you need to leave early, quietly slip away. Your comfort and agency matter more than conformity.
Consent is required.
No unwelcome touching, energy work on others without permission, or assuming others want advice/healing. We hold space for each other without fixing.
Confidentiality is sacred.
What’s shared (if anything is shared) stays within the circle. No social media posts that include others without explicit permission.
Donations are private.
Whatever you give is between you and your resources. No judgment, no pressure, no comparison.
We start and end on time.
Respect for everyone’s schedule means beginning when stated, ending when promised.
Common Questions About Tampa Bay Events
I've never meditated before. Can I still come?
Absolutely. These gatherings welcome all experience levels. I guide the entire meditation—you simply follow along. No prior practice needed.
What if I can't sit cross-legged on the ground?
Bring whatever supports your body: chair, cushion, multiple blankets. Many participants sit in beach chairs. Your comfort matters more than traditional meditation posture.
Are these events religious?
No. While we work with spiritual concepts (energy, chakras, intention), these aren’t tied to any religion. All beliefs welcome.
What if weather is bad?
Events proceed rain or shine unless severe weather (lightning, tropical storms, extreme conditions). Check your email morning-of for any cancellations or location changes.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes! Each person should register individually, but you’re welcome to come together.
What's the donation suggested amount?
There’s no suggested amount. This is genuinely donation-based. Some people give $10, some give $50, some give what they can. Your presence matters more than your payment.
Will you take photos?
No photos of participants without explicit permission. I may photograph the space/sunrise/sunset for marketing, but never individuals’ faces.
Can I bring my child?
These events are designed for adults. Children 14+ who can sit quietly for 45 minutes are welcome with parent supervision.
What if I need to leave early?
Life happens. Quietly slip away whenever needed. No explanation necessary.
Are these events accessible for people with disabilities?
Beach and park locations have varying accessibility. Contact me before registering if you have specific accessibility needs, and I’ll provide detailed information about that location’s terrain, parking proximity, and available accommodations.
