Ceremonies for the Heart in a Changing World
What is soul cycle?
Soul Cycle is both a process and ceremony. As process, it is a way to deepen into one’s authentic
self and give expression to that self in the presence of sacred witnessing. As ceremony it is a
structure that honors our place in the unity of all and calls together our uniqueness into the one
heart. Begun in spring of 2008, Soul Cycle is an on-going event that celebrates the gift of
each soul and our beauty as a community.

Coming into the dance we willing gave ourselves to looking at this deeply and I believe it helped all to move more easily and swifter. Just dancing this first dance we started to experience the other questions that naturally arose as we faced change. Suffering is felt when we resist change and sometimes we don’t change until we suffer. Once there is surrender into change joy can be experienced which naturally flows into service to share this joy.
