Yoga is a practice that brings together the mind and body. In fact, yoga means “to yoke” or unite. It is an ancient healing practice that is both physical and spiritual, incorporating postures, breath, and meditation. Yoga heals! Yoga provides relief from numerous forms of trauma, anxiety, and physical stiffness. It also builds a strong physical and spiritual core.

Join us every Monday from 7-8 pm for a vinyasa flow that will strengthen and energize as well as promote flexibility and balance. We will also experience inner peace by the closing meditation called Shivasana. Please bring a mat and water bottle, and the class meets in the beautiful sanctuary. There is no registration required, and the cost per class is $10 or a food pantry donation (the pantry is located outside the center). Class will not meet on federal holidays. Venmo: Jennifer-Kurz-2.

As we honor our individual healing journeys, we also awaken the wisdom of our lineage, drawing strength from those who walked before us.
This is an invitation to step fully into yourself—to be seen, heard, and held in the profound power of sisterhood.
Come as you are. Leave feeling rooted, radiant, and reignited with the fire of your soul.
Bring a friend to share this sacred time together!

On the first Sundays of the month, we combine our Open Circle Gathering with a community potluck brunch.

We gather and connect in a more relaxed, less structured way, yet with threads of meaning and spirituality tying it all together.

You’re welcome, if it would bring you joy, to contribute a food or drink item to share as part of the community brunch. Another option is to bring non-perishable food or toiletry items for our free mini-pantry.

If you’re new to Open Circle, you’re welcome to sign up here so you can be in the loop for future gatherings: https://forms.gle/Aa18ZuGfyy4Nv3gq7

Our community is finding a creative place in the spiritual world, where new forms of spiritual practice, artistic expression, and self-awareness are emerging to support humanity to meet the challenges of our times. We are finding balance within ourselves, making peace across differences, and stepping up to protect the Earth.

We welcome folks of all beliefs and backgrounds to build community with us as we align around a hopeful sense of common purpose. To become a member, please fill out the membership form here: www.commonstreet.org/membership

Divine Design - Ecstatic Dance and Soundbath
2025-04-11 18:30 - 22:00 | Common Street Spiritual Center, 13 Common Street, Natick, 01760, United States
‘Divine Design – Ecstatic Dance & Sound Bath’ will be held on Friday, April 11th at the Common Street Spiritual Center in Natick, MA!
Here are the details…
-Doors open at 6:30 for stretching, snacking, and socializing while music in the background sets the mood.-There will be an intention-setting meditation a little after 7:00pm.-We will then transition into dancing to delicious exotic jams, with both DJ set/performance and live (often improv) accompaniment on a variety of instruments. This will be the ecstatic dance portion of the event.-Then, cool down and ground with a soothing sound bath meditation.-Stick around, have snacks, and socialize for a bit after the sound bath if you wish!
There is a suggested donation of $25-35 for this event, but if funds are a barrier to entry for you, don’t let that stop you from enjoying this releasing, healing, and uplifting community event… just donate whatever you can. Every contribution will help us to keep putting on these events, as we would like for this event to keep happening on a regular basis!
To create a conscious container for all the ways folks might wish to explore and experience this event with movement, consent, and inner emotional processing, this is an adults only event. Nothing R rated will occur, just not the right container for kids.
Bring anything you might want… hoops/poi/etc. for flow arts, a yoga mat/blanket/pillow for the sound bath, water for hydration. The center will have some yoga mats, meditation cushions, and blankets available for borrowing as well.
I hope to see you there to jive, shake, wiggle, jump, twirl, and other words that describe movement…
Peace & Respect,Jason A. Karol
