A summary of my summer workshops - grab your chance to come and practice with me before the summer break!

Upcoming workshops & events before the summer break Cacao & Sound Bath ~Wednesday 14th - 6-7:15pm  Cacao and Gong Bath at the beautiful Naomi Swain Wellspace in the heart of Jericho. Come along for an evening of rest, reflection and intention setting as we approach the height of summer. Take stock of your year so far and let go of what is no long...

Some of the journaling prompts I shared during yesterdays workshop focusing on the Spring Equinox & all the ways we can invite a sense of balance.

It’s a constant dance, as our inner and outer worlds shift and change, to try and stand at the axis of the wheel as life turns around us, or to be like a brightly burning sun holding all out planets in orbit (that’s certainly how I often feel as a parent!)

I love using these touch points in the wheel of the year as an opportunity to stop and reflect, to regroup and refine…Holding these workshops always reminds me that it doesn’t need to take long (but also how valuable it is for a dedicated space to be offered!)

I have lots more suggestions for marking the Spring Equinox in my latest newsletter 🌱

This weekend Seasonal Yoga will return to the cosy cabin at the garden. Last time I held a workshop in the space, we were in the deep dark depths of winter. This Sunday we’ll explore the awakening spring energy and upcoming Equinox through gentle movement, guided meditation, a sound journey using gongs, singing bowls and chimes, and some creative activities. There’s still space for a few more, so check out my website/eventbrite for more info!

I am really excited to be collaborating once more with and of to bring a day retreat and a cacao and sound immersion to a beautiful central Oxford location.

The day retreat will take you on a journey of embodied exploration into the Spring-time seasonal energy. Weaving self-care, creative exercises and authentic self-expression into a space of ceremony and celebration, we will attune ourselves more to the cyclical patterns of the natural world.

To mark Earth Day, we will reflect upon our relationship to the more-than-human world and engage in grief tending as a regenerative exercise.

We aim to offer a space for rest, reflection and rejuvenation; a sanctuary and space for community and connection.

I’ve recently been reflecting on how important community is to me, and how so many of my projects focus upon building and working with different communities.

I’ve decided to trial running a monthly Saturday Marston Restorative yoga class, with a pay-what-you-can pricing approach.

I mainly work in North Oxford, so
bringing a workshop into the local community where I grew up, and lived with my children for much of the past 6 years, feels really nice. I haven’t used spaces in Marston since 2020 and it feels so good to return!

If any Marstonites see this in time, our first ever Marston Restorative session will be on Saturday 10th December at 2:15pm in St. Nicholas Church hall, Old Marston. Booking via me to ensure I bring the right number of props!

What a joy it was to be back in the Jericho Community centre after such a long hiatus, hosting Samhain workshops. I love the natural light and the way the dusk falls, the night draws in and I can glimpse the moon as I guide yoga, meditation and sound baths. I found the willow branches on the shelf at the community centre ~ they are from my old garden and I must have left they by mistake the last time I worked there!

Seasonal Soundbath on November 6th: join me to mark the transition from Autumn to winter by resting in comfort as sounds from gongs, singing bowls and chimes wash over you.
