Welcome to 'Soul Kollective Presents 'Taste & Sound'!
The coming of winter welcomes in the time of vata season which is the expression of the ether and air elements. The qualities of these elements promote and foster expansiveness and creativity beyond our comprehension, but, without the proper channeling, the magic of this potent time can be lost!
In order to tap into the power of the mind, a seasonal spread of root vegetables accompanied by the elemental healing sounds of Tasha Mae and Prana Rising transform this dining experience into an unforgettable evening of sounds and flavors. This Soul Kollective journey will allow us to ground into our bodies so that we can manifest the abundance that we envision and share it with the world.
Individually we can do a lot but together we can do so much more!
