FACILITATED BY: Stevie Reneé
EXCHANGE: $15-$35 Sliding Scale
Winter is a season of inward turning—a natural invitation to slow the body, quiet the mind, and listen more closely to what’s unfolding beneath the surface.
This gathering is shaped by Stevie’s Soft Alchemy ethos—a gentle approach to inner work that honors slowness, embodied presence, and the wisdom that arises when we listen rather than push. That spirit quietly threads through the meditation, the pacing, and the way we hold space together.
In this Soft Alchemy meditation, we’ll gather in a grounded, supportive space to soften into stillness, reflect on what this past year has revealed, and listen for the intentions that want to be carried forward—not through force or urgency, but through presence and care. This is a practice of honoring the pause and trusting the wisdom that emerges when we allow ourselves to rest.
Together, we’ll move through breath, guided meditation, and quiet integration to cultivate clarity, groundedness, and gentle renewal. Toward the end of our time, there will be space for journaling and optional reflection, allowing insights to settle and take root in a way that feels supportive and unhurried.
You’re invited to create a cozy sanctuary for yourself—perhaps with a journal and pen, tea, candles, blankets, or anything that helps your nervous system feel at ease. Come exactly as you are, and let this be a moment of return.
This is a MINKA x Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health Partnership Offering—Created to Bring Efforts of Equity, Diversity, and Decolonizing Work to All.

Paying it Forward
We provide most of our community offerings and private sessions by sliding scale. This is based on the idea of ‘paying it forward’ which enables more people to access healing and wellness. This works when people pay as much as they can for our offerings to help others who may be less fortunate be able to gain access, too. We believe everyone is entitled to heal and thrive, and that practitioners deserve to earn a living wage. We are all in this together and choose to do our best to take care of one another. Thank you for being part of the MINKA community!
