Reignite Your Inner Light

Seek the soothing powers of nature’s warmth by exploring the health benefits of fire meditation. There’s something deeply healing about watching flames that ease the soul and foster reflection.
Our minds naturally find fire calming and its rhythmic motion offers a natural form of meditation, helping us let go of stress and awaken a sense of peace and rejuvenation. Sitting by a fire brings a unique stillness; the sights and sounds quiet the mind, making us feel protected and at ease.
Fire meditation combines the ancient practice of mindfulness with the power of flame for a truly therapeutic experience. For hundreds of thousands of years, humans have gathered around fires for warmth, survival and connection. This sacred element continues to inspire wellness and light the way in the present day.
Come gather and ignite your inner flame of health around Ste. Anne’s Firecircle in the English Walled Garden. Our complimentary 45-minute Fire Meditation class will guide you to slow down, breathe deeply and be present in the moment.
Relaxation awaits. Focus on your senses and feel the glow of presence:
- Gaze softly
- Breathe
- Notice the colours
- Watch the movement of the flames
- Feel the heat
- Hear the sounds
Breathe with the ebb and flow of the fire. Maintain focus with a gentle, steady gaze fixed on the tips of the flames. The soft, repetitive flickers can bring on a trance-like state, allowing a shift toward heightened mindfulness. Reflect, process and simply be.
Let go of what has been and find the glimmer within you. Feel the warmth of your spirit, your passion and purpose, and let it awaken. Envision the flames of joy, strength and energy brightening in this safe space.
Fire represents transformation, life force, passion and willpower. It turns matter into heat and light, cleansing and clearing away emotional debris and burning through confusion and doubt.
Feel the fire consume fear, anger and sadness, transforming them into ashes and making space for growth. Let joy and purpose reignite as the flames of opportunity and connection illuminate your path to renewal.
Seek to light your internal fire in a group setting at 11:15 a.m. Our guided Fire Meditation unites hearts around Ste. Anne’s healing Firecircle, fostering connection and shared wellness. Time spent in this collective calm lifts the spirit and deepens compassion for self and others.
Meditation offers many benefits for mental and physical well-being, including stress relief, lower blood pressure, improved sleep and sharper focus. You can enhance your practice by meditating beside a backyard firepit, an indoor fireplace, or even a virtual fire.
