A complimentary lunch for Bay Area women on health, care and independence.<h2>Caring for everyone around you has been your priority. . .</h2>
Your children. Your parents. Your partner. Your colleagues and clients who counted on you. Caregiving is something women do beautifully — and too often we put off planning for who will care for us.
Researchers at the Stanford Center on Longevity are asking a big question through their New Map of Life™ initiative: how can we best live a 100-year life? One of their ideas we shall focus on is this: the goal isn’t just a longer life span, but a longer health span — more years that are healthy, mobile, sharp, independent, AND, if I may add, the financial resources that allow you to design your desired lifestyle beyond today.Over a delightful lunch, you’ll learn:
1. Everyday habits that support healthy aging and vitality — with real-life stories.2. How lifestyle choices today may help delay or reduce future care needs.3. What Medicare does not cover, and the real cost of care in the Bay Area.4. Why waiting too long to plan can quietly narrow your choices.5. A private conversation guide to share with the people you love.Join us for a meaningful conversation about living longer, living well and designing your life beyond today. Bring a friend, share fresh perspectives, and take a step toward designing the life you envision. Reserve your spot today! Seats are limited.

Heirloom East Bay

Earth Rhythms Circle is an ongoing seasonal gathering at Heirloom East Bay designed to help us slow down, connect, and join together in meaningful community.
Each circle is inspired by the season and offers thoughtfully curated guided practices, ceremonies, and activities to deepen our connection to nature, ourselves, and each other.
You don’t need to follow a particular spiritual tradition or have any previous experience. Come as you are, participate at your own pace, and connect in whatever way feels meaningful to you.
🎟️ PURCHASE TICKETS ON EVENTBRITE and learn more about the facilitators: <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/earth-rhythms-circle-tickets-2001677470197" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">eventbrite.com/e/earth-rhythms-circle-tickets-2001677470197</a>Save $10 when you buy 2 tickets!!!

<h2>🌿 Why Gather?</h2>
Throughout human history, gathering has been woven into the rhythms of life. With music, art, and ceremony, we have gathered together to mark seasons, share stories, celebrate, reflect, and support each other through the seasons of life.
Modern life can make connection harder to find. At times, many of us move through our days feeling disconnected—from nature, from meaning, from our creativity, and sometimes from one another.
Earth Rhythms Circle offers a space to reconnect.
Together, we’ll create opportunities to slow down, notice the season we’re in, reconnect with the natural world, and remember that we don’t have to move through life alone.
<h2>🌾 The Setting</h2>
We gather at Heirloom East Bay, a beautiful working farm in the Castro Valley hills.
Surrounded by open land, gardens, and animals—including the resident goats!—the farm offers a unique opportunity to step away from everyday life and be more present with the natural world.
<h2>✨ What a Typical Circle Includes</h2>
Each gathering will be shaped by the season, so no two circles will be exactly alike. A typical circle may include:
Welcome Arrive early to settle in, explore the land, visit with the animals, grab a snack, and meet fellow participants.
Grounding A guided reflection to prepare for the day and set intentions, followed by a mindful nature walk to connect with the land.
Ceremonial Practice A guided ceremony, creative practice, or seasonal activity exploring the themes and rhythms of the season.
Embodiment &amp; Integration An immersive sound bath, somatic movement, yoga, meditation, or another body-based practice designed to support reflection and integration.
Community Time for sharing, conversation, and connection within a thoughtfully facilitated and welcoming space.
<h2>🤍 Who Is This For?</h2>
Earth Rhythms Circle is for anyone who is looking for:
<ul><li>A deeper connection to nature and the rhythms of the seasons</li><li>Space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself</li><li>Opportunities for creativity, exploration, and personal growth</li><li>Meaningful connection and community</li><li>A more intentional approach to self-care</li><li>A chance to step away from the pace of everyday life</li></ul>
<h2>🌎 An Inclusive Space</h2>
Earth Rhythms Circle is open to adults 18+ of all identities and backgrounds.
All religious and spiritual backgrounds are welcome, including those who do not identify with a spiritual tradition. The circle is not based on any specific religion or set of beliefs.
You are always empowered to bring your full self, exactly as you are, and choose your own level of participation.
<h2>🌱 What to Bring</h2>
<ul><li>Yoga mat</li><li>Blanket and pillow for the sound bath (optional, but recommended)</li><li>Water bottle</li><li>Journal for reflection</li><li>Comfortable clothing and layers for both indoor and outdoor activities</li></ul>
Doors will open at 12:45pm to allow you time to settle before we start at 1:00pm. This is approximately a 3.5-hour experience, but we will end no later than 5pm.
