Event description
Join animist, creative and wellbeing practitioner Shaney Barton for a warming seasonal get-together to nourish the spirit and revive mind and body at the Winter Solstice.
Kick your shoes off and settle into grounding Qigong flow, mindful journalling and relaxation in a gentle circle designed to hold you through the often busy and stressful run-up to Christmas. We’ll reconnect with the sacred roots of the Winter Solstice and the importance of connecting with the seasonal abundance all around us in Mother Nature, and with the creature and plant spirits she supports at this time of year.
We’ll reflect on the blessings and growth of 2026 and look ahead with our hopes and wishes for 2027, sealing our reflections in pen and crafting a seasonal botanical besom in ritual appreciation of the abundant medicine of the plant kingdom at this time of year.
Enjoy an oracle card and a warming spiced botanical infusion before relaxing into the deeply restorative vibrations of the 42” Universe Gong in a mini gong bath designed to relax and restore body and mind.
Expect to leave with a bit more magic, wonder and connection to your spirit, to the supportive beings in nature, and to the spirit of Winter itself!
What to bring:
Please bring a journal/writing pad and pen, something comfortable to lie or sit on for the gong bath, a blanket, cushion and eye covering.
Doors open at 6.30pm. Please arrive promptly by 6.40pm to begin at 6.45pm – we have a beautiful evening planned for you.
