Yoni Yoga for Yule
For all women… a woman-only afternoon to celebrate Yule, the winter solstice and nourish us from the inside out. At the winter solstice we reach the depth of darkness with the longest night of the year; darkness has reached its peak. Now we might start to wonder whether the light will ever return?
But at Yule a wonderful thing happens; the sun stops its decline and for a few days it rises in the same place and doesn’t go any further south – a standstill. This is a crucial time, the cusp between events, like the depth of the exhalation, will the light keep its promise and return, will the breath come again?
As the outer world is darkened by the shorter days so our inner realm can expand into this place of not knowing and yet knowing. Like the dark night of the moon and the moment before our own cycle begins again, there is much to be gained if we can settle into this space, of wisdom, insight and intuition.
Together we will join in sacred circle, to drop into the darkness and explore more of our inner landscape and all it may reveal if we can meet it, be with it and truly listen to it, while also celebrating the impending return of the light again.
With a beautiful central altar dedicated to the Goddess, with candles flickering and gentle music playing, this session will weave together a combination of gentle movement (postures), mudras (gestures), breath awareness (in various ways), enquiry and Yoga Nidra (guided relaxation). Reiki will be shared where possible.
There will be the opportunity for Goddess cards after the class. This is a truly wonderful way to connect with the energy of sacred earth celebrations and your own inner wisdom.
