We will not have the all night gong puja this solstice although the Sumer one in 2026 will run as usual.

In its place, there will be an extended gong bath with a relaxation meditation at the the beginning and further relaxation at the end. Mince pies and mulled wine/hot drinks at the end. This is a fine way to ease into Yuletide. This is time to slow down and check within that any stress or anxiety about the coming days is all manageable - just return to the Self and that includes caring for oneself and finding time, space and peace.
