Spring Equinox Women’s Day Retreat

Bel and Lyn invite you to join us for a feast of a day at the beautiful Dent meditation centre to celebrate Spring Equinox.  A time of awakening and new life.  As all around us is bursting into life. And also a time of balance.  Our day together will be a feast for all of your senses to bring balance into your life.  We will nourish our bodies as we re-emerge from the depths of winter ready to turn outwards once more, reaching out for our hopes and dreams for the lighter, longer days as we begin to feel the warmth of the sun.  The spark of life burning brightly once more, as the Earth awakens and fertility and manifestation come together.

Please join us from 10am onwards to settle in with a brew and perhaps a biscuit ready to begin our day at 10.30am. Bel will guide us through a gentle yoga session, suitable for all, to open us up to the day ahead, before heading out into the beautiful village nestled in the heart of Dentdale.  While we our outside, Bel will share her herbal wisdom with us, the medicine and magic of the plants that grow all around us, and offer us ways to connect more deeply with them and with ourselves. Back at the centre, we will then experience a freshly gathered herbal tea tasting before enjoying a super Equinox feast of a lunch together.

After lunch, Lyn will guide us through a Yoga Nidra giving time to pause and reflect on the areas of imbalance within our life.  How the outer and inner can meet, how our masculine and feminine can beautifully balance each other bringing us to a whole.  As we bring our attention to all that needs to listening to within us, we will bring a fertile ground ready to create our own vision board, our own map of manifestation for the year ahead.

With our vision boards complete, we will affirm our intentions with some celebratory cake, heart-opening chanting and a grounding, inspiring storytelling session to bring the day to a close. Together we will release the final constraints of winter and leave the centre filled with Spring energy and ready to embrace the year ahead.

£65 per person including lunch and refreshments through the day.
