The Veil of Autumn- yoga, restoration & ancestral remembrance
Sunday 2nd November 9.30am - 1pm
Join me as we gather in the turning of the year, honouring Samhain and the deep magic of Autumn — a time when the veil between worlds grows thin and the wisdom of our ancestors whispers close. Together we’ll move, breathe and rest in sacred connection, releasing what no longer serves and creating space for renewal as we enter the quiet descent toward winter.
As the Wheel of the Year turns, we find ourselves in this liminal space, a pause between endings and beginnings, where we are invited to listen deeply to what lies beneath the surface. In the ancient traditions of these lands, this time marks the arrival of The Cailleach, the great Crone Goddess of Winter - she who governs the thresholds, who gathers the bones, who teaches us the beauty and power of rest, reflection, and return. We’ll honour her presence within and around us as we root into grounded awareness and open to ancestral healing and remembrance.
Our morning will begin with a warming, all-levels vinyasa yoga practice to open the body and gently awaken the flow of energy, releasing held emotions and creating spaciousness in body and mind.
We’ll then move into a deeply nurturing somatic session to explore fascial unwinding and release, softening the body’s stories and allowing for the movement of emotion and memory held within.
After sharing detoxifying teas and nourishing seasonal refreshments, we’ll close our time together with restorative yoga and guided journaling, inviting deep rest, integration and gratitude for the lessons of those who came before us.
As we honour the turning of the year and the wisdom of The Cailleach, we’ll align ourselves with the energy of peace, healing and renewal - planting seeds of intention to carry us into the next energetic cycle with clarity and grace.
Please bring a pen and notebook/journal…
Please note, to enjoy maximum effectiveness of this beautiful workshop, we suggest avoiding alcohol for 24 hours before as even small amounts have a sedative effect on the pre-frontal cortex into the ‘day after’. Allow yourself to be well rested and ready to get the most from our time together!
Investment:
Your investment for this seasonal immersion is £67.50 for Members and £75 for non-Members - reflecting the depth of experience we’ll share - yoga, somatic release, restorative rest and sacred connection in honour of Samhain.
This isn’t just a class - it’s a morning to reset body, heart and spirit as the Wheel of the Year turns. An opportunity to pause, reflect and renew in the company of kindred souls.
Blessings, Janine x
