We're a Bay Area community built around wellness, consciousness and growth.
Every Thursday we gather the week's best gatherings, classes and experiences into one place — chosen with care.

September 21 – 27, 2026
The equinox lands on Tuesday and the harvest moon on Saturday — the only week this season that holds both. Almost everything worth doing has moved outdoors or after dark: geothermal pools, a schooner under sail, a moonlit tea room, a gallery that stays open until midnight.
