I’m so excited to invite you to what is potentially the most important ceremony of the year, the Winter Solstice Water Ceremony.
At a time of collective overwhelm and pressure to have ‘the perfect Christmas’... We'll join together to set a powerful intention for the season ahead.
It's your opportunity, in the midst of a busy Christmas season, to stop for a moment, breathe and centre yourself. You'll tap into what you truly want from the coming weeks and set your intention for the next 3 months.
This ceremony is the ideal preparation for the Vision Boarding event with Lou Shackleton, on 5th January and Venus Yoga, which begins on 10th Jan for 6 weeks. The intention you set during this ceremony can be used to inform these classes, allowing you to nurture your intention over the winter period.
What to expect
Water Ceremony to connect to and anchor your intention for the season, protected by deities Vajrasattva and Marici.
Transition into movement meditation with gentle sun salutations and restorative Yin Yoga poses
Bonus:
- Winter Guided Meditation - this will help you centre yourself and understand what you truly want from the winter season.
- Yoga Class - an invitation to slow down
- Access to Live Guided Meditation on 30th December - to keep you connected to your intention over the winter period
FAQs
What do I do if I want to come online?
I will send you a zoom link so that you can join us live from your living room!
Make sure you are in a quiet space where you won't be disturbed. Set up your yoga mat and have a bolster or several cushions nearby.
You will need a few everyday props and I'll send you a list of these items and the zoom link to join us after the Live Guided Meditation on 16th Dec.
Is the Winter Ceremony live?
The ceremony was held on 20th December. Using the replay, this Winter Solstice Water Ceremony can be performed over the coming weeks and will still be a powerful anchor for setting your intentions for the winter months.
What is movement medicine?
We will do very gentle sun salutations during the ceremony. This will keep the blood flowing and our bodies warm. They will be suitable for beginners and we'll do it slooooowly so it will feel like we are collectively meditating and moving into a tracelike state as we fully connect to our intention for the season. Just gorgeous!
Do I have to do the homework?
You don’t but it would be amazing if you did so that you have given yourself a chance to listen to what your inner-wisdom has to say about the coming season. Using the prompts to acknowledge any fears, hopes, dreams that you have and allowing you to really get clear on your intention.
How do I get access to the bonus material?
I'll email everything you need to know about accessing the bonus material.
What does the element of water mean?
Within all of us we have 5 elements - wood, fire, earth, metal and water. Water is such a beautiful element as it represents your ability to just be! If your water is in balance, you will be able to accept what is and who you are. Too much and you can come across as arrogant, too little and you can feel scared.
Winter is a time of self reflection and the perfect time to balance or topup your water element. To get quiet and hibernate, rest and nourish that pool of water that resides within you, ready for spring. Using the energy of the season, we can truly discover the essence of ourselves.
How do I balance my water?!
If you would like additional support for this, book in for a 1 to 1 session where I will take you through a powerful and deeply relaxing bodywork sequence which will rebalance your water, leaving you feeling nourished and at peace.
