Open to the whole community whether you have attended other events of the day or not. We need you too to witness and support those who are fast breaking, sharing in new relationships, capturing insights for the coming year; while sharing our favourite foods and non alcohol drink is the way forward. A day of Soul Foods balanced with Body Nutrition.
The space will be open and held you and all for every voice, every song, every poem in the sanctity of Ancient Practice from all Paths. Bring your favourite instruments. We will jamb. We will open for personal pieces. With care, we have a piano too
Breaking the Fast
As with any fast, it is important to break your fast with intention. We recommend eating and drinking clean, simple foods easing yourself back into your regular diet.
It is also a good time to make a formal transition from your experience back into your day-to-day life. At our gatherings, we conduct fast-breaking ceremonies where we show our gratitude, share food, ask witnesses to share their words, and celebrate the effort and sacrifice as we reflect upon the day and the road ahead.
