Yoga Rituals: Samhain

DATE 2nd November 

TIME 6-8pm

Samhain marks the end and beginning of the Celtic year. It is a time of taking the lead from nature, shedding like the leaves, what we no longer need. It is a time of introspection. For really turning your attention inwards, to let go of what didn’t work out for you this year, and to begin to whisper the seeds of your vision for the year ahead.

Samhain is often associated with death. But this is not in the obvious sense. Its the death of the year and the experiences is has brought you. To be reborn again, a new beginning, with all the wisdom you have gained from the past year.

This yoga practice will be slow, soft and deep. The practice will be a moving meditation, for release and to guide you towards your inner knowing. There will be a mini fire ritual to help you find your light in the dark months ahead and cacao ceremony with a journey to meet a past version of yourself.

Modern day Samhain or Halloween brings an edge of mischievousness with it. And I invite you to bring this playful aspect with you by wearing something that brings you joy. A hat, wig, silly socks, it can be as subtle or as obvious as you like.
