Community Song Circle in Weaverville: 1st & 3rd Thursdays
Join us as we gather at Harmony House to cultivate a sense of belonging and well-being through community singing!

These songs remind us of our unique humanness, as well as our connection to all life- our belonging to the world. These are songs for everyone, regardless of singing experience.
Each circle we focus on a different theme. You are also more than welcome to bring songs to teach the group! These circles take on a beautiful life of their own when we are all sharing together.

Community Song Circle in Albuquerque
Join Josh Fox & Lillie Lumina for an intimate evening of singing in Albuquerque NM.
Come as you are, with your authentic heart and let’s lift our voices together in songs that inspire hope and resiliency in these trying times. We sing for the Earth, for the trees, for the water, for the children, and for the future we pray they get to see. We sing for life, for freedom, for justice, for grief, and for joy. We sing together for a world in harmony.
We sing songs that are relatively simple, easy to learn “call and response,” that bring us into our hearts and a feeling of interconnectedness. Rather than performing music, we share in the meditative practice of allowing music to move through the group field.
No singing experience necessary
Your voice is most welcome
Contribution is $20 at the door.
Please email joshfoxabq@gmail.com to reserve your spot.
Community Grief Ritual in Albuquerque
You are not alone in your grief.
Grief is as natural an expression of humanness as joy, and honors the losses of what we loved: family, friends, relationships, situations, parts of ourselves that once knew love, etc. Unexpressed grief can be the source of stress, illness, and disease while the process of grieving can bring balance to the body and create space for joy to recolonize the heart.
We will create a safe and powerful Grief-tending Village together to share in sacred witnessing, body awareness, heart-opening music, and emotional release.
LOGISTICS
This event will be held indoors at the First Unitarian Church, with some possible outdoor activities weather-permitting. Masks are welcome, but not required. Physical wellness is required; please stay home if you're even slightly sick.
The ritual is a closed container, so please plan to arrive promptly and stay until the end.
Participants are encouraged to pack their own dinner to enjoy during the break, as meals will not be provided. A refrigerator is available if needed.
EVENT FACILITATOR
This somatic, guided grief-journey will be facilitated by Josh Fox, a song-carrier, teacher, and herbalist. A grief-tender in his private practice, he has offered community healing circles for over a decade, inspired by the works of Sobonfu Somé, Frances Weller, and Martin Prechtel. A life-long student of Grief and Chinese Medicine, he has received direct ceremonial training with Laurence Cole and Kedar Brown.
This journey will be supported musically and energetically by Lillie Lumina, a music therapist, somatic practitioner, and singer-songwriter who has worked closely with Josh for many years.

A WORD FROM PAST PARTICIPANTS
"This was one of the most healing and transformative experiences I've ever had. To be held in such a safe container while also bearing witness to the depths of grief in others, is a deeply humbling experience. I've been hiding my grief since I was 10 years old. For the first time in my life I felt like my grief had a place to be seen, heard and held. That presence, support and unconditional acceptance from strangers changed my life. I feel more connected to myself, my emotions and to the human experience. Even if you feel like you have never experienced loss in your life, this ritual will help you heal parts of you that you don't even know are hurting." --J.J. Asheville, NC
"This work is the real deal. Fox creates a safe, sacred, and spacious container... to connect to the deepest parts of your inner self. Exploring grief through this ritual healed me in ways that words cannot.“ - A.V., Gainesville, FL

Deep Waters: A Ritual Journey of Grief & Joy
Join us for Deep Waters, a three-day ritual journey diving deep into the waters of grief. In this time of great global transition, the anniversary of Helene, and our personal heartaches, we gather to heal through practices of shared grieving and collective renewal.
This gathering invites us to reweave the threads that bind us to each other, to the land, and to those who came before. Within this village, we pledge our allegiance to the earth and call forth the greater ancestral and elemental powers to guide our individual and collective journeys.
Through live music, elder wisdom, ritual magic, and guided practices, we will build a sacred container to express what has been unspoken, release what has been held too long, and open ourselves to the gifts on the other side of sorrow. Expect deep connection activities, songs, silence, storytelling, and collective keening.
You’ll also find time to rest and replenish. Swimming in natural waters, shared meals, and quiet communion with the land offer nourishment alongside the depth of this work.
This ritual is open to all who feel called—whether you carry fresh grief, ancient sorrow, or heartache for the world. The village welcomes you, all of your parts, and all of who you are.
What to Expect:
Deep ritual space held with care and integrity
Deep connection to each other, the earth, and our ancestors
Elder wisdom and blessings
Live music and communal song to support emotional release
Opportunities for swimming, hiking, and nature immersion
Shared meals, deep connection, and time around the fire
Lodging and camping according to your needs
Let us remember how to traverse the deep waters, to weep in the arms of the Earth, and to rise again in the strength of the village.
Facilitated by Josh Fox & Black Crow, with musical and energetic support from Lillie Lumina

Sing For The Trees! Save The UNCA Woods
UNC Asheville’s 45-acre urban forest has been a cherished community resource and wildlife habitat for decades. It’s now been approved for development into a soccer stadium, despite its status as one of the last remaining urban forests in Asheville.
But we are not giving up! There are a variety of actions you can take to help save the woods. Check out saveuncawoods.org for more information on how to get involved
Sunday, August 3rd, we will gather at 5 pm sharp to sing for (and to) The Trees! This will be a space to be share in deep reverence for the forest, to feel what’s in alive in our hearts, to honor and praise the wild through song as well as to learn about the forest, what’s going on there, and actions we can take to help protect this special place.
Seasoned song leaders will guide the group in singing a variety of nature-based songs. The songs are easy to learn and sing along, with phrases that repeat many times, like mantras for the mamma .
Meet at the entrance to the woods on Vivian Ave (follow the sign).
Park along Vivian and Dortch Ave.

Free Your Voice
Singing is your birthright!
Yet, so many of us carry stories in our bodies that hold us back from fully expressing ourselves.
In this grounded group container we will have the opportunity to
dive deep into exploring and re-negotiating the stories we hold around our voices through the lens of nervous system repair and vocal liberation.
By tuning in to our own unique vibration, we can begin to discover the voice as a profound gateway for connection and transformation. We will use this container as a way to practice holding each person’s unique expression within community, supporting each other to step more powerfully into using our voices without fear or judgement
Practices we may explore together include:
Breath Work
Vocal Education
Nervous System Regulation Practices
Somatic Exploration
Vocal Toning
Community Song
Embodiment Practices
Inner Child Healing/ Parts Work
For all people with voices- No singing experience necessary!
Guided by Lillie Lumina:

- A.S., Free Your Voice Participant

Join us as we gather at Harmony House to cultivate a sense of belonging and well-being through community singing!
We lift our voices in joy, grief, honor, and praise, and find that when we tune our voices together we create the opportunity to tune into something bigger than ourselves. These songs remind us of our unique humanness, as well as our connection to all life- our belonging to the world. These are songs for everyone, regardless of singing experience.
Each circle we focus on a different theme. You are also more than welcome to bring songs to teach the group! These circles take on a beautiful life of their own when we are all sharing together.

Sing For The Trees! Save The UNCA Woods
UNC Asheville’s 45-acre urban forest has been a cherished community resource and wildlife habitat for decades. It’s now under threat of development, despite its status as one of the last remaining urban forests in Asheville.
There are a variety of actions you can take to help save the woods. Check out saveuncawoods.org for more information on how to get involved
Sunday, April 13th, we will gather at 3 pm sharp to sing for (and to) The Trees! This will be a space to be share in deep reverence for the forest, to feel what’s in alive in our hearts, to honor and praise the wild through song as well as to learn about the forest, what’s going on there, and actions we can take to help protect this special place.
Seasoned song leaders, Lillie Lumina and Samara Jade, will guide the group in singing a variety of nature-based songs. The songs are easy to learn and sing along, with phrases that repeat many times, like mantras for the mamma .
Meet at the entrance to the woods on Vivian Ave (follow the sign).
Park along Vivian and Dortch Ave.
All voices welcome!
Free of charge
