LiTT Yoga Festival is a unique gathering that combines the transformative power of yoga, live music, workshops, and sound healing in the serene beauty of nature. With a focus on love, unity, and self-discovery, the festival aims to provide a holistic experience for attendees to nourish their mind, body, and spirit.

Share with us what you LOVE about your festival location?
Leland Lake is a truly magical place, the desire of the owner, a fellow yogini, was to one day have a Yoga festival on her property and everything has been so thoughtfully placed with this in mind. It truly is a place to reconvene with nature.

The theme of our issue this year is JOY, how do yoga festivals inspire JOY?
I have found that for me, most of my Joy comes from opportunities to serve others. My method of service in everything I do is heart centered. I get people to feel their own hearts and listen to that voice within that just wants to play and see life as a big adventure.

It is so easy in the business of life to move away from what is really important. Life entices us, sucking us into the stories and dramas of the ego and we find ourselves moving further and further away from our joy. Many are walking through life listless and uninspired. My life purpose and goal behind all that I do is to reinspire passion and reignite the spark that glimmer of hope that allows for growth, expansion and transformation.

From inception until now the wild ride of creating a festival has expanded every part of me giving me a larger capacity to hold an even greater amount of JOY!
Although I hold the title of creator of LiTT, I think in actuality LiTT has created me. Throughout the process of visioning and creating LiTT I feel like I have been reenvisioned. I have two children and when each was born I felt like a part of my heart that I didn’t know I had lit up. LiTT is my third child and my heart has grown exponentially since its inception. And I can’t wait for those that experience it to feel that love!

My whole life I have gathered people together under the umbrella of LOVE whether it be retreats, workshops, classes or life coaching. But, now more than ever it feels like I needed to grow the stage. The world as we know it is dissolving. Old belief systems are being dismantled and the world, like me, is being re envisioned. We need more ways to come together under the common desire for community, connection, healing and LOVE.

LiTT isn’t just a place to listen to some amazing music or do some yoga, it is an opportunity to unplug from the chaos of life and plug into nature. It is an answer to the calling of the soul which requires we slow down, nourish, play, move and connect on the level of the heart. LiTT calls us to HEAL-EXPAND-LOVE-REMEMBER-BECOME

SEDONA YOGA FESTIVAL

SPOTLIGHT FESTIVAL: THE SEDONA YOGA FESTIVAL

MARCH 14TH – 17TH, 2024

FESTIVALS

Looking for something to do this March? We are thrilled yoga festivals are back and can’t wait to check out all the amazing events taking place around the world. This week we had a chance to connect with Heather Sanders, Founder & Producer and Lisette Cheresson, Director of Communications of Sedona Yoga Festival taking place in Sedona, AZ who we are thrilled to partner with! You will be able to get complimentary copies of our magazine at this festival!

What makes this year’s festival unique?
HEATHER: After years of seeing people network with one another organically and go on to do amazing things together, we are putting some intentions behind growing that network. As such, we’re actively exploring what purpose-driven collaboration looks like, in what is being shown to us as a new way of doing things. We will have more spaciousness in the schedule and more intentional time all together to spark these relationships, as well as fun activities that support people creating with one another to collaborate both at the festival and beyond.You will find our presenter roster here!

Share with us what you LOVE about your festival location?
HEATHER: Our venue, the Hilton Sedona Resort at Bell Rock, is located in an area of Sedona that has very grounded and healing energy. With everything being walkable from the venue, we expect it to be very relaxed. There are many trails easily accessed near our venue, so folks can take time between classes to really find themselves on the land. There couldn’t be a better place for us to celebrate all together now and really connect with this sacred land.

In that vein, SYF is unique in that it takes place in one of Earth’s well-known power points. Sedona has an energy of transformation and amplification. When we practice together in large numbers in this environment — with shared intention and an attitude of gratitude and love — it resonates and ripples out to the world at large.

The theme of our issue this year is JOY, how do yoga festivals inspire JOY?
LISETTE: There’s a lightness of being that happens when we share in yoga and chant and celebration. It’s not just about coming together in community — though it’s that too — it’s the inspiration of possibility. When we come together in the shared goal of recognizing our interconnectedness, we break the barriers we set for ourselves. We’re able to step into our true, authentic, shared humanity and remind ourselves what is actually possible.

The joy comes from that reminder — the tapping back into what’s really important, and creating the connections we need to shift out of stagnancy and hopelessness and into our divine power once we leave the event.

The theme of our issue this year is JOY, how do yoga festivals inspire JOY?
Yoga festivals bring me “JOY.” The Bull City Yoga Festival was created in 2018. I created the festival because I wanted to bring together the diverse yoga instructors in our community and the different offerings that they would bring to the festival. I enjoy seeing the smiles on people’s faces, their laughter, hearing their responses as they attend each of the yoga classes. I feel the “JOY” as the participants shop at the vendor booths. It is such a beautiful atmosphere with the peace and blessings that are shared among everyone that attends the festival.

Our community benefits from a day long yoga festival experience that offers yoga classes, holistic workshops, natural product vendors: natural soaps, body oils, sage wands and candles, natural clothing, self-help books, beaded jewelry, and food trucks for all different appetites (including vegan).
