The notice on their Facebook page says that they’ve decided to lay down their spatulas in favour of meditation mats and embrace a more serene next stage of life. They will re-open 902 Millwood Road as a spiritual centre in spring. Their full message is below.
Well, sweet friends, the time has come to close the doors of our beloved Melt after nearly 11 wonderful years. We’ve been talking about it the past few years, and despite the fact that we are busier than ever, we’ve been conflicted for a while about whether we should hire and expand to meet demand or instead pursue a dream that’s been in Steve’s heart for decades: to continue building his spiritual teaching career. Focusing on both has proven to be too challenging, especially while he’s still recovering.
So, with heavy but hopeful hearts, we’ve decided to lay down our spatulas in favour of meditation mats and embrace a more serene next stage of life that moves at our pace. It’s difficult to describe the strange mix of sadness and excitement we’re feeling. Although we’ll miss you dearly, we’re also grateful to you for allowing us into your lives and hearts. You’ve undoubtedly become a part of our extended family.
Thank you to all our supporters for helping to keep this little raft afloat for all these years. We intend to keep our space at 902 Millwood Road and reopen as a spiritual centre in spring, where members of our beloved community are invited to gather in a welcoming space devoted to cultivating the higher self. Steve’s beard should be quite spectacular by then, truly befitting a monk!Millwood Melt
