The Seasonal Pause: Autumn Equinox | Sept 20, 2026

$195.00

A Half-Day Gathering in Whistler, BC to Honour the Turning of the Season

As summer begins to soften into autumn, nature offers an invitation to pause. The Autumn Equinox is a threshold moment between light and dark, with the fullness of summer behind us and the quiet of fall ahead. It's a natural time to slow down, reflect and reconnect before stepping into whatever lies next.

Join Carolyn for The Seasonal Pause, a thoughtfully curated half-day gathering designed to honour this transition with her favourite practices and in her favourite mountain town. Carolyn has invited two cherished Whistler teachers, Sara Russell and Heidi Whent, to join her in creating this experience.

This is an opportunity to make space for yourself - to pause with the season, notice where you are, honour what matters and cross this seasonal threshold with greater presence and intention.

Sunday, September 20th, 2026
11:00 am – 3:00 pm
Itsken Hall at Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre
Whistler, BC

Due to the intimate nature of this gathering and the advance planning involved, registrations are non-refundable.
