Honoring Your Ancestors

Oct 28, 2025

Samhain, Altars, and the Ancestral Portal

As we move into the darker half of the year, the energy of Samhain (pronounced “SOW-in”) invites us to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the ones who came before us.

Samhain is an ancient Celtic festival marking the end of harvest and the beginning of winter — a time when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. Across cultures, this sacred season has always been a portal for ancestor connection, release, and renewal.

The Ancestor Portal Workshop is a guided experience to help you:

  • Learn the spiritual history and meaning of Samhain
  • Build your own ancestral altar at home
  • Perform a releasing ritual to clear old patterns
  • Reconnect with your lineage — both known and unseen

 

This isn’t about religion or tradition — it’s about remembrance.
It’s about honoring where you come from, healing what you’ve inherited, and creating a bridge between your past and your future.

Whether you know your ancestral story or not, this workshop will help you open to their wisdom, love, and protection in a grounded, gentle way.

Workshop Details:

Date: Today, October 28th, 7 pm EST
Location: Virtual in the LiveYinsa Collective
Exchange: Pay what you want, (minimum $1)

 Join the the Ancestral Portal

The veil is thin, but love is stronger than time.

Let’s step through the ancestor portal together and remember who we truly are.

With love,

Daniele

The Workout Myth That’s Been Exhausting You
🦋 The Friday Flutter 🦋   July 11, 2026   My name is PAVITA and I. AM. from: The sound of laughter. The sight of pink, paint, paisley, and paper. The smell of lavender oil massaging my body with love. The taste of spicy curries over rice. The touch of smooth pages of a book. The value of self-care, being my own best friend. The idea of exploration, connecting my inner and outer worlds. I am mad...
The Yinsa Foundation Update
Eight years of Yinsa has always meant body and mind, East and West, and ancient wisdom held next to evidence-based practice. This year, that same marriage extended somewhere new: the Yinsa Foundation, and our first Fellowship on the ground at FONICRIS, an orphanage in La Romana, Dominican Republic. If you’ve been here a while, you know that my dream for DR was to build a school.  You may remem...
We Turned 8! Yinsa LLC Becomes Yinsa, Inc.
  The day before our launch party on June 15th, 2018, my car was towed by the glorious NYC Department of Finance.   That car was full of supplies for the day's photoshoot with an A/V team, I had a house full of friends and family helping me with final details, and my Mom's credit card was the only thing keeping me from giving up.  I'll be reminded about that $8,000 on her Discover card for the ...
