Imbolc Day Retreat

  • Flying Horse Lawn (map)

Imbolc: the midway point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox

A time to tune into possibilities and 'what if?'

A time to begin to emerge from the darkness of winter

A time to begin growing the shoots of new ideas

What will the day look like:

Space for you to pause, to breathe, to nourish

Space for individual reflection and for shared connection

Celebration around the fire, including sharing of food

Embodied practices to bring together mind, body and the natural world

An intimate group limited to 12 participants

Our sessions:

A walk of the senses, connecting to nature and to the season

A celebration of the elements and of life - gathered around the fire - inviting each in and bringing light into the darkness

A creative activity, using natural resources, to represent the shift in season and our place in it

A guided somatic experience, connecting with our visions and dreams for coming months, followed by an opportunity to share

What's included:

Beautiful sheltered, private space within a woodland setting, on the edge of the Peak District

Four facilitated sessions, punctuated by lunch and a morning and afternoon break

Fire throughout the day for warmth

Vegan refreshments in the morning and afternoon

Teas, coffee and water

Four facilitated sessions, punctuated by lunch and a morning and afternoon break

The location is accessible by car or by bus from Sheffield
