The Place to Delve Deeper
Throughout the year I host various special events and workshops, the themes of which are often linked to the seasons, celebrations and festivals of the Celtic Wheel of the Year. They incorporate my love of nature, Yogasana, Pranayama, Yoga Nada, Yoga Nidra and specially crafted meditations. These are truly special and magical events you don’t want to miss out on.

Feel deeply rested and nourished ready for the weeks ahead.
In December at The Winter Solstice, we take a more nurturing approach with Restorative Yoga which assists you by being fully supported both physically and metaphorically at this darker time of the Year where we look inwards and reflect on the past 6 months and let go of anything that is no longer positive in our lives. Your practice will be accompanied by seasonal poetry, reflective prompts and a soothing Soundbath. We look ahead to lighter, brighter days ahead and welcome the return of the light on the shortest day of the year.
Rest, Restore & Return to the Light returns on Saturday December 21st 2024, 6.30-8.30pm.
A nurturing and nourishing Restorative Yogasana, Yoga Nidra (guided relaxation) & Yoga Nada (sound) practice @ The Yoga Tree in Norwich.
Welcoming in the return of lighter days ahead on the shortest day of the year.
The Equinoxes occur twice a year, usually in the latter half of the months of March and September. These points in the Year are a time when day and night are in near perfect balance, the balance between day and night, masculine and feminine, active and passive, inner and outer and light and dark are at perfect equlibrium. The Spring or Vernal Equinox represents new light, life and beginnings. The Autumnal Equinox is a time for reflection, of going within and surrendering to the changing season.
Spring Equinox practice will return on March 22nd and Autumn Equinox practice will be on September 20th, both 6.30-8.30pm at The Yoga Tree Studio in Norwich.
These sessions incorporate either Yogasana movement or stillness in Restorative postures, combined with seasonal readings, poetry and prompts to support you to embody the season. A soothing Soundbath at the end helps you to integrate your sessions.
In June we celebrate the power of the Sun when it reaches it's highest point in the sky at the Summer Solstice, it is the longest day of the year giving us maximum daylight hours, after which the wheel of the year continues to turn towards Autumn and Winter.
This year I am holding a Summer Solstice Circle in my Town Garden in Norwich. You can read more about what Circle is here.
