​

I invite you to come and let us help you to nurture and nourish yourself on this day retreat as we start stirring from the depths of winter and let us hold you in a space of gentleness, sharing, laughter, movement, relaxation, invigoration, learning how to nourish your body and soul at this time of year through various methods including the use of current plants and herbs as they start to pop up in nature. Using your voice and movement to clear your energy fields. Using the elements and nature as guides and allies for nuturing and understanding and more.

 

 

SOME OF THE BEAUTIFUL OFFERINGS ARE
* Sacred meditation/sound immersion to start the day and help you to connect to to the space we will be in.
* Gentle movement and shamanic sounding to move emotion through your body, to clear your energy fields and to stimulate any stagnant energy.
* Journeying with Faye's medicine drum into a deep exploration into yourself. We will set intentions on the day.
* Exploring silence, quietude, stillness, the sounds of nature as nourishment, deep relaxation and finding peace within.
* Laughter and humour as a medicine for the soul

* Sun energy alignment ceremony with Clare Annaly

* Possible medicine walk in the woods depending upon time and weather.                                                                                                             

* Nourishing seasonal vegan soup and bread and cheese for lunch

* We will teach you about which plants are nourishing for your body as we emerge from winter.

* Additional evening sacred drumming and song circle if you wish to come to that.

​

Faye works with your guides, nature spirits and more, so there will be fluidity and nothing will be set in stone!

​

We will journey together throughout the day, in community and connectivity celebrating the stirrings of new life around us. Honouring nature, the earth, the collective, each other. Remembering our humanity. Remembering what it means to be a light worker, a light bearer, a compassionate human being. Reawakening, rejuvenating, re-emerging, nurtured and nourished and with some extra tools to continue to nurture and nourish yourselves and your families and friends.

 

GUEST PRACTITIONERS
We will be joined by Clo's Roots and Rituals who invites you to join her in a nourishing tea ritual. Exploring how the chosen plants for this blend support our physical & spiritual bodies here, with their medicinal & magical properties. Delving into cyclical nourishment for this season, with these homegrown, foraged & ethically sourced herbal kin. Together we will create your own personally supportive loose leaf tea blends to take away with you, full of intention & blessings from the space held together.

We are also joined by Clare Annaly. Clare is a devotee of the Ancient Egyptian deities and has an Egyptian ritual group who meets every 4 to 6 weeks. She is offering a sun energy alignment for you to receive the blessings of Ra, the Sun God. This is a practice you will be able to incorporate into your morning rituals.

​

EVENING SACRED DRUM & SONG CIRCLE
From 18:30pm to 21:00 Faye will also be holding a sacred drum and song circle at the same venue. You have the opportunity to buy an additional ticket to this at a discounted price. You may leave your things in the yurt but we encourage you to leave the site in the 2 hours in between sessions as we will need to prepare for the evening. It will give you an opportunity to refresh and go and eat something off site. It is not far from Newent, Ross or Gloucester or some places in the Forest of Dean and the May HIll is literally a couple of miles away so you could pack a picnic and take a walk up this iconic and powerful hill for an hour and a half, countinuing your nourishment
