Winter Warmer

Friday 16th October at 7-8:30pm

As the nights draw in and the year begins to turn towards winter, come and hunker down with Kate for an evening of breath, movement, mantra, fire and stillness.

A chance to pause before the Christmas build-up begins. To take some time for yourself, settle your nervous system, clear your head and replenish your energy - so you can head into the busier weeks feeling grounded, centred and ready for what’s to come.

Winter Warmer is 90 minutes to step out of the noise and back into yourself - to soothe, centre and nourish the body and the mind.

You’ll begin in a peaceful meadow beside the water, gathering in the warmth of a yurt. You’ll connect with the breath, open the body and move freely through gentle, qi gong-inspired movement - releasing tension, loosening the joints and creating space for the body to move with greater ease.

Then, you’ll breathe deeply and intentionally, using the breath to quiet the noise, shift out of the rush of the day and find a clearer, steadier place within yourselves.

Stepping outside into the night, lit by the fire and the stars, you’ll gather around the fire pit. With the elements around you - earth, water, air and fire - you’ll settle into a different kind of stillness.

Here, Kate will lead you through the Ayur Mantra - the Life Mantra, an ancient Sanskrit self-blessing from the Yajur Veda, recited in traditional Vedic chanting using three tones of svara. This precise oral tradition has been preserved for thousands of years, with strict rules around pronunciation and sound.

The mantra moves through different aspects of our being - asking for nourishment for our life, our sight, our energy, our hearing, our mind and our soul - before extending that wish for nourishment beyond ourselves, to all.

There’s something powerful about sitting beneath the night sky, listening to these ancient sounds carried through the firelight…

Deep breath. Free movement. Ancient sound. Fire. Water. Earth. Air.

Come and feel the difference for yourself - notice what happens when you give your body permission to move freely, your breath space to deepen, and your mind the chance to become quiet.

And, of course, there’ll be something warm to drink around the fire.
