At The Well in New York and The Mayflower Inn, we recently marked the Autumn Equinox, a time for reflection and inner balance, by teaching members and guests our signature class: Radiate from Within. Here's a brief recap of the events.

The Autumn Equinox is a unique moment of balance, when light and darkness are equal. This natural transition offers an opportunity for introspection and realignment, inviting us to pause, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves. We embraced this occasion by creating a space for participants to turn inward, using guided meditation and breathwork to gently release stagnant energy and with ease make room for personal growth and clarity.


Our Radiate from Within class is designed as a holistic ritual, combining breathwork, meditation, and facial exercises to promote both inner grounding and outer vitality. The practice encourages deep relaxation while cultivating an inner glow that radiates outward.

As part of the ritual, we incorporate facial massage techniques using our skincare collection, chosen for its purity and effectiveness. The gentle massage and stretching exercises are intended to tone and relax facial muscles, while lymphatic massage supports detoxification and reduces puffiness. These practices help to promote circulation and enhance skin health, for a refreshed and radiant glow.

We also introduce participants to tapping, a technique inspired by ancient Eastern medicine. By applying light to medium pressure with the fingertips at specific points, tapping stimulates key acupuncture sites and sends vibrations throughout the body. This method is known to relieve tension, support circulation, and encourage collagen production, helping to restore natural radiance and reduce inflammation.

Overall, the session offers an hour of rejuvenation, equipping participants with tools and practices to cultivate balance and radiance from within—both physically and energetically.
