❤️🌸🕊Autumnal Welcomings 🕊🌸❤️







Dear yogis


The wheel turns once again...


We are approaching the Autumn Equinox this Sunday 22nd Autumn  when the sun rises and sets exactly twelve hours apart. The trees are starting to draw in, fledglings are fully grown and fending for themselves, and the swallows have left our shores. The berries are ripe, and fruit is in abundance. Nuts are falling to the floor and the harvest is being gathered.


The Equinox is a time of balance, reflection and preparation: At this moment, we sit poised ready to tip towards the long nights. It is an opportunity to take stock and celebrate what has already been achieved, with awareness that there is still much to do before the long nights drawn in. 

We turn into the dark half of the year; the inward-focused, Yin-energy side of the Wheel of the Year.

 

We are shifting out of a season where so much of our energy is focused on our outer lives, into a season of introspection. 

 

A time for exploring our inner lives; diving into our shadows, exploring our dark spots.

In summer we worship the sun, this season we are remembering how to appreciate the darkness.

 

Autumn is the season of magic & mystery.

It's a season of deep inner growth if you are brave enough to explore your own shadows & darkness, if you're ready to let the old, outgrown parts of yourself die.

 

I hope this shift in seasonal energy feels balancing & comforting to you, in your life right now. I hope the changing season feels nurturing, and the idea of autumn scarves & hat sounds cozy.

I'm sending you so much love & strength for the weeks & months to come. May this be a season of enlightening inner exploration for you!

I am also holding a winter wellness retreat day on Saturday, the 30th of November.  A treat before Christmas to help you deal with the busy-ness and stress of this seasonal time. It's so important for us to nurture ourselves, so we are able to nurture others.Drop into yourself on this slow & restful day retreat involving contemplation, yoga with breathwork and meditation designed to restore your inner peace. We will be using sacred oils to give ourselves a beautiful yogic facial  and journalling to welcome in this new season. We'll finish with winter treats and tea.Escape the hustle and bustle and the busyness of Christmas craziness  and join me for a rejuvenating mini retreat day where we will be surrounded by candles, twinkling lights and smell of sandalwood and cinnamon. This is your chance to disconnect from the world and reconnect with yourself and others before moving into a time that can sometimes feel overwhelming and overindulgent. 


Rebalance and restore before the celebrations begin.....

 

This really is the time of new beginnings, I really hope it brings joy, serenity, peace and wondermentI hope to see you on the mat soonBook your space on my weblink below
