As we move into the darker days of December we are called to slow down, to rest to take time for ourselves to find out what nourishes us and remember that darkness has its own kind of beauty, its own kind of truth.

Our ancestors knew the importance of following nature and honouring this dark time. Of allowing winter to be a time of composting, of gestating  of trusting the unseen work of stillness that has the power to reshape us from the inside out.

In only three weeks we reach the Winter Solstice which marks the still point before the slow and steady return of the light. Can we make space to honour this sacred moment in the turning of the year and let it be a time: 

……to pause 

……to breathe 

……to dream

……to give thanks 

and YES  to celebrate the return of the light.

This year I will be offering a special gathering away from the rush of christmas shopping to gather, to be together and to honour this sacred moment.

Candlelit Ceremonial Breath Journey for the Winter Solstice

Sunday 21st December 2-5pm

Price Standard £40 – Concessions £32

Qigong – Fire Ceremony – Breath Journey  – Winter Elixir & Cake

What to expect?

• We will begin with an opening breath awareness meditation to help you reconnect with your body and breath 
• I will then explain the foundations of conscious connected breathing- learn to re-connect with the power of your breath in every day life. 
• Time to move our bodies with a simple Qigong form to open and connect with the natural intelligence of our life force energy clearing blocks and stagnation helping to strengthen our lungs and access our Qi.
• Then we lie down for our Guided Conscious Connected Breathwork Journey – An opportunity to release embodied holding patterns, stress, tension and unwanted feelings.
• There will then be space for some journaling to help creatively explore what came up for you
• FIRE CEREMONY – We will then gather around the fire, connecting with the transformative power of the flames to let go or transform anything we no longer need.
• Then it’s time for integration and heart-centred sharing with a Sunhouse special winter elixir warming drink and cake
  

These sessions are a beautiful way to come together and experience the power of group healing where we all learn and grow from each others experiences. They offer the opportunity to delve deeper into our own inner worlds with the support and connection of others. 

Id love it if you were able to join us

These are small group gatherings of up to 8-10 people, to keep it safe and intimate and no previous experience necessary.

The Celtic calendar/Wheel of the Year has eight festivals throughout the year with the solstices, equinoxes and cross-quarters. It is my intention to hold a ceremonial breath journey for each festival, offering you the opportunity to connect to and honour both the wider and your own personal seasonal shifts throughout the year. Connecting to the wheel of the year can be a helpful way of making meaning; noticing, anchoring and grounding through the cycles and seasons of our wider body of nature and our interconnectedness.
