I’m collaborating with Emma from Essential Nature Yoga on this immersive day retreat to help you shake off the stagnation of Winter and gently awaken the deep feminine energy, healing power and creativity of Imbolc (Spring).
Included:
Traditional Irish griddle bread making workshop: Connect to the changing seasons with this hands-on bread making workshop. Imbolc/St Brigid’s day is a traditional time of making butter and bannocks. Learn to make them from scratch, then enjoy them with a delicious, nourishing lunch and take some home alongside your new recipes. You can read my thoughts on the food traditions of Imbolc/Brigid’s Day here.
Feast: A gorgeous two-course seasonal vegetarian lunch, plus teas and treats catered for by me.
Folk Lore & storytelling
Craft: In keeping with the seasons that’s in it and working with creatrix energy of goddess Brigid, we will be making a St Brigit cross from reeds to take home and decorate and bless your home.
Yoga Nidra: Deeply rejuvenating sleep based meditation for the ultimate relaxation and blissed out feels
Connection with other incredible people who want to live more deeply
Imbolc is an ancient Celtic festival that welcomes the earliest breaths of Spring. It marks the midway point between Winter solstice and Spring Equinox. As the natural world begins to wake up from its deep Winter’s sleep, Imbolc is the first emergence from our Wintering. The seeds that have been deeply dreaming in the belly of the Earth begin to stir and emerge. It is a time of quiet awakening, budding possibility and the hope of renewal.
This Imbolc day retreat is designed as a Winter’s cure, inviting you to cleanse, deeply nurture and reset after a long, dark Winter. You will learn the folklore, ritual and traditions of this Celtic Festival through kitchen witchery and an Imbolc Feast with Erin and enjoy storytelling, intention setting, yoga nidra (sleep meditation) and get creative weaving Brigid crosses with Emma.
This is a whole day dedicated to nurturing you to come back into rhythm with the rhythm of nature. Give yourself time to slow down reset and plant seeds of intention for the season ahead and leave feeling aligned, inspired and deeply nourished on all levels.
