Event description

Join us for a nourishing day of seasonal wellbeing as we gather to mark the Autumn Equinox.

As we reach this turning point in the Wheel of the Year, often known as Mabon, we’re invited to pause and reflect on the blessings of our Summer months, looking ahead to Autumn. Together we’ll acknowledge the harvest of our own lives, honour what has supported and sustained us, and gently prepare for the quieter, more inward months ahead — reconnecting with the natural cycles around us and within us.

The day will weave together Qigong, meditation, sound, breathwork, mantra, relaxation, seasonal ritual with space for reflection, rest and connection. Through gentle movement and mindful practices, we’ll explore themes of balance, gratitude, release, restoration and conservation.

Come and step into the season with intention, reconnecting with body, nature and the rhythms that guide us.

 

Meet your Host:

Shaney Barton is a multidisciplinary practitioner who creates immersive experiences through movement, sound, ritual and creative practice.

 

What to bring:

Please bring a yoga mat or similar, a blanket, cushion, journal and pen and a packed lunch with you. We have the Courtyard Café Bar on-site and recommend pre-order only at this busy Saturday lunchtime slot. Eye covering for relaxation is optional.

Tea and coffee will be provided.

Suitable for beginners and those with experience alike. All practices are gentle and can be adapted to suit your own pace.

Doors open 10am.
