One of Toronto’s most iconic landmarks is transforming into a stunning wellness oasis this summer, serving as the ultimate way to reset your mind and body
Starting this June, the majestic grounds of Casa Loma host Breathtaking Gardens every weekend, an immersive morning experience centered around intentional breath, live sound, and deep connection. Created by Soul Expansion, this unique summer series transforms the castle’s lush, historic gardens into a peaceful sanctuary right in the heart of the city.
Guided by Freddy Gervasi and The Band of Souls, each Sunday morning session is designed to help you disconnect from the hustle of the city and tap into your body’s natural rhythm. Attendees will be treated to a beautifully layered live instrumentation and soundscape, featuring specific frequencies aimed at calming the nervous system and grounding the mind.
The 90-minute journey is carefully curated to maximize your relaxation. Doors will open at 8:15 a.m., followed by an opening collaborative class led by a local wellness community leader at 9:15 a.m.
At 9:40 a.m., the Soul Expansion experience will begin promptly, featuring 15 minutes of meditation, a toning and grounding sequence for 15 minutes, guided breathwork for half an hour, and live music and gentle soundscape for the final 20 minutes. At 11 a.m., guests can head to the terrace for a community social.
The Details
Breathtaking Gardens will run every Sunday morning from June 7th through August 30th.
While general tickets are available starting at $64, wellness enthusiasts can also opt for a 3-Pack bundle, which includes three individual single-day passes that can be used at any point throughout the summer season.
Whether you’re looking to deepen your mindfulness practice or simply want to spend a serene Sunday morning surrounded by historic castle walls and blooming florals, this is bound to be one of the city’s most rejuvenating summer traditions.
