A very special harvest gathering, open to all; a day of practise, celebration and ceremony held within a magical Cornish landscape. Close to the festival of Lughnasadh we will gather on the land at Coskewis nature retreat.
Flow of the retreat:
The day begins with a welcome circle and delicious elixir blending the medicine of mama cacao with local plants (herbal tea option available).
Ali guides you in an accessible somatic yoga practise where we invite space, breath, awareness into and of the body.
We will venture out to meet the stone circle, sharing toning practises which spiral the voice through the elements within and around us (no singing experience required).
You can then sink into a sound journey of drum, gongs, crystal bowls, flute and other elemental instruments within the snug sanctuary of the Coskewis healing space.
After lunch we embark upon a silent walk around the labyrinth, a chance to gather your own wisdom with the support of the land.
The day concludes by gathering with the fire to share the day’s reflections, drumming, songs and stories.
