In Traditional Chinese Medicine, each season is closely associated with one of the elements in nature. Springtime is closely associated with the element of Wood. Having been nourished and nurtured by Water over the Winter, Wood can now emerge into Spring where it can flourish, expand and grow. Seeds that were planted and hidden beneath the surface patiently waiting, to emerge, can now begin to push forth through the slowly warming soil, towards the warmth and energy of the resplendant Sun.
Spring is very much a time of transformation, of new ideas, hope and manifestation. During the introspection of Winter, we are gifted with a beautiful opportunity to withdraw and look within to enquire and seek out the dead wood ~ what is no longer serving us. With trust, grace and acceptance we let it fall away, giving space and energy for new shoots…We begin again. There is a sense of Re-birth, Expansion, Growth and Vibrancy.
In this day retreat, we retrun to the home of PAUS. PAUS holds a special place in my heart and has been the home to many of our past rertreats together. Because this place is so seeped in, and guided by Nature, it is only natural that each sesaon is refelcted and experienced diffferently. From the deep cocoon like space we created in Winter to the the expansion and dynamanism we felt surge through our body us as we celebrated our glorious selves in summer.
And so we returnn for the re-awakening of mother earth as she gives birth once again to new signs of life.
We begin our time together in ritual~ being guided through an intention setting ritual as we move out from winters deep hibernation and introspection.
What has becom clear? What new roots have bed in and are ready to expand and shoot forth?
From stillnes we gather momentum, moving througha mindfully curated yoga sequence tapping in to to springs dynamism and optimism . Wellness practices and essential oils to promote clarity, vitality and clear thinking willl be woven into our practice as well as nestling in between a deeply nurturing restorative sequence.
There will be time for reflection, and journaling. Time to connect with you and time to let your ideas and hopes for this expanisve and dynamic time of year, so potent with possibility, blossom across your journal page.
And then, then we gather in nature. We will walk through the medow taking in the barefoot sensory trail to truly re- awaken our sense and connection to the earth, until we arrive at the hilltp bistro. We will eat alfresco ~ a glorious seasonal home cooked lunch before we celebrate the return of longer days by bathing in the mid afernoon light in the cedar wood fired hottubs on top of the hill.
These retreats have become hugely popular with many attendees returning multple times (the last two sold out in less than two days). I never over crowd the space. It feels good to keep it intimate
You really do feel like you have had a mini break on these days. There is something innately good and nurtuting about being in nature surrounded by kindered spirits sharing yoga, food and hot tubs.
A magical place for sure
If youve wanted to attend before, then go for it! It would be my pleasire to share this day with you.
With love
