Thrival Kit: Rooted in Community
Energize. Nourish. Awaken.
Our FREE Thrival Kit to uplevel with family and friends this month.
To us, community is not just a group of people—it’s a connected collective aligned in values, mission, and vision for life. At Shine Living Community, we come together to practice remembering who we truly are and to live from a place of connection, authenticity, and power so we can bring it into our families, our work life and our communities at large.
As triplet sisters raised in a big Italian family with over 70 cousins, we’ve been immersed in community since birth. Later, through our 20+ years of owning restaurants and gathering places, we created spaces where people came together to share food, music, movement, and stories.
Now, through Shine Living Community, we are devoted to building an inspired global community—rooted in love, unity, and healing practices—beyond the four walls.
Shine Living Community Core Values
🌎 Holistic Health
Whole health is not just physical—it’s mental, emotional, spiritual, and relational. We honor holistic health through movement medicine, somatic practices, embodiment, nourishing food, and the strength of a supportive community.
🌱 Self-Healing & Self-Regulation
Every human has the innate ability to self-heal and regulate their own body and nervous system. Through somatic movement like yoga, dance warrior practices, breath, and simple tools, we bring balance, release stuck energy, and move beyond our perceived limitations into freedom.
💗 Self-Knowledge & Authenticity
The deeper we know ourselves, the more we trust and love ourselves. This becomes the anchor that helps us make choices in life and work that serve both ourselves and the whole. From here, we naturally grow compassion and are less swayed by outside noise or opinions.
🔥 From Victim to Creator
Instead of being at the mercy of circumstances, we practice choosing how we show up. By working with our emotions and learning to move energy, we step into our power as creators of our experience—finding solutions and possibilities for the path ahead.
Why It Matters Now
The values we hold at Shine Living Community are the antidote to what we see breaking down globally—disconnection, division, and fear.
We believe these times are an incredible opportunity to come back home to ourselves, to each other, and in connection with our incredible planet: A Shine Living Community, each participant is learning to tap their true power to become the ripple, to create the wave, to be the way showers in their families, their communities, and beyond.
This is how we do it. Come join us.
This Month’s Thrival Kit Practice
Aspen Grove Meditation
Aspen trees grow in groves with a shared root system. Each tree may look like it’s standing on its own, but beneath the surface, they are one living organism—deeply connected and supporting each other’s growth.
This month, we invite you to practice the Aspen Grove Meditation:
Sit quietly, close your eyes, and let your hips rest heavy into the earth as you gently lengthen your spine and allow the shoulders to melt down the back as you lift the top of your crown skyward.
Take three long, slow breaths from the top of your head through your body and exhale the breath down into the earth. With these breaths, picture beautiful roots from your hips growing down deep into the earth, tethering you in connection and support
Feel these roots expanding out to connect with loved ones or family, or people you are connected with, feeling the roots gently intertwined. Just like the great Aspen Grove, standing as an individual but with roots intertwined underground to share nutrients and wisdom. Connect with the feeling of gratitude for your communities.
Allow your roots to also connect with the roots of trees, flowers, mycelium, and beyond, in awareness that we are also connected and supported by nature all the time.
Sense the strength, resilience, and nourishment that comes from being part of a collective.
Breathe deeply, remembering you are never alone—you are always connected to community, seen and unseen.
Let this remembrance root you in belonging. 🌿
Inspired Community is the Way Forward.
We are Shine Living Community—and together, we rise.
