Join us for a day of nourishing and awakening practises, as the wheel of the year turns to Imbolc; a time of vitality stirring ‘in the belly’ of the earth. We will gently thaw our minds and bodies in preparation for the cleansing, hopeful energies of Spring. Knowing that January and February can often feel tough, it is a wonderful time to gather with like-hearted women and re-ignite our self care.
We open our day together with tea, welcome meditation and sharing circle then move into a yoga practise focusing on deep restoration of the body’s vitality.
Through pulsing, rolling, oscillating (somatic movement) we invite a sense of deeper feeling and listening in preparation for the simple shapes of yin yoga; held for longer in a soft and surrendering way with breath awareness.
The morning concludes with a sonic shavasana mainly using crystal bowls, chimes and gentle sounds.
We pause for a hearty shared meal (fully plant based and GF) then observe silence for the rest of the afternoon.
Weather allowing we will head out onto the land for ritual, song and walking meditation. The second sound journey of the day will be mainly focused around powerful gongs and other elemental instruments.
We conclude the day retreat with tea, treats and closing circle.
