SUMMARY:Tattoo Fundraiser for Local Artist Megan Marie Myers
DESCRIPTION:Megan Marie Myers\, a beloved Bend artist whose work has quietly shaped the soul of this town has recently been diagnosed with brain cancer. \nHer art is woven into the spaces we gather & expresses so much of what we love about living here. And beyond her talent\, she is one of the kindest\, most genuine humans you could ever meet. \nAs a local artist myself\, I know how much heart goes into building a life through your art—and how vulnerable it can feel when everything is suddenly put on hold. I wanted to find a way to show up for her. \nI’ll be hosting a tattoo fundraiser in her honor on May 7th & 8th . This will be appointment only–with all proceeds going directly to support her during this time. Use my Instagram page to book. \nI’ll be releasing several special flash sheets & opening my books this Friday\, April 3rd. \nIf her art has ever made you smile\, if you love this community & local art\, or if you just want to show up for a truly special human—this is a meaningful (& beautiful) way to do that. \nYou can also support her directly via her GoFundMe through her page @meganmariemyersart . \n

SUMMARY:Mother's Day Meditation: The Heart of the Mother
DESCRIPTION:On the eve of Mother’s Day\, we gather to honor The Mother in all her forms—from our own lineages and the nurturing Divine Feminine within each of us to our primal mother\, Mother Earth. This heart-centered session creates a sentimental sanctuary to celebrate the universal essence of unconditional love and nurturing that sustains us all. \nThrough a guided meditation focused on the archetypal Mother\, we will reconnect with the fierce compassion and intuitive grace that resides in every heart. We will conclude by grounding our energy into the Earth\, acknowledging her as our ultimate source of stability and renewal. This is an invitation to offer yourself the same mothering energy you so often give to the world\, providing a space for deep softening and soulful reconnection. All levels and all people are welcome\, and no previous yoga or meditation experience is necessary.

SUMMARY:Ride4LifeNW – The Full Circle Honor and Donor Run
DESCRIPTION:The engines will turn over in the high desert of Bend\, Oregon\, where the land is open\, quiet\, and honest. Morning light stretches low across sagebrush and volcanic stone\, and the air carries that familiar mix of cold\, dust\, and possibility. Kalinka idles patiently\, heavy and grounded. In the sidecar\, Gnocchi settles in without ceremony. This is not a beginning driven by excitement—it’s driven by intention.\n\nThe Full Circle Honor Run is not about distance\, it is about meaning.\n\nThis three-day Ride4LifeNW journey follows some of Oregon’s most historic roads\, but history here isn’t just what’s written on plaques or carved into buildings. It’s the history carried inside people—stories of service\, survival\, sacrifice\, and gratitude. The road is simply the thread that ties them together.
