Healing Hibernation: a mid-winter retreat to deeply rest and replenish: gentle movement, restorative yoga and yoga nidra

Date: Sunday 19th January 2025
Time: 3.30pm – 6pm
Price: £25.00
Live online via Zoom

In the aftermath of all of the Christmas and New Year festivities, we can be left feeling somewhat exhausted and underwhelmed in the midst of January’s cold and grey days.

So this workshop will be an opportunity to rest and restore in the midst of these dark winter days, and to cozy up with blankets and bolsters in a series of deeply restful postures.

We will start with some gentle and somatic movement to release tightness and and holding which can become more common in the winter, allowing energy to flow more freely through the body again. From there we’ll allow the body to soak up some much-needed deep rest in a sequence of restorative poses to help recoup and restore our energy, followed by a long, deeply relaxing and restorative yoga nidra practice (deep yoga sleep).

The restorative sequence will help you to find a sense of profound inner stillness and to surrender any deeply held tension in the body. It will also be very beneficial if you are suffering from fatigue and depleted mental and physical energy and is a perfect practice for this time of year.

You will finish the practice feeling nourished, replenished, deeply rested and ready to move forward into the rest of winter, and the eventual blossoming of spring that lies ahead.
