Refill your cup for the new season with a Yoga & Creative Pottery Morning
~ create an Autumnal Candle Holder ~
​
Autumn is a magical time of year. It is a time to return to the balance of light & dark – reuniting the mind and body with natures rhythms. As the leaves start to fall, it is the season of letting go and turning inwards to refocus on what is important and release what no longer serves.
​
Harness the spirit of Autumn with Pottery (Creating an Autumnal Candle Holder), Yoga, Meditation and Yoga Nidra to truly let go and relax.
​
-
Pottery Workshop in the Wild Fern Studio (Tania Ware).

Yoga Flow, Meditation & Sound Healing Relaxation (with Gail Taylor)
​
We will begin Wild Fern Art studio to create an Autumn inspired candle holder with guidance and materials from Tania Ware, the Retreat’s Therapeutic Art Practitioner. Working with our hands to tune into the grounding energy of nature and the earth, to create a candle holder, honouring the changing of light.
Afterwards we will take a mindful Autumnal Walk in the Retreat’s beautiful grounds, before moving to the South Room for guided meditation, calming breathwork and a gentle flowing yoga practice to ground and surrender to the new season. Practice will finish with a special sound healing relaxation, blending Tibetan singing bowls and Deep Relax Yoga Nidra.
