Mountain Retreat January 2023 - In Your Element - FULL
The retreat will be themed around the new year 2023 and the five elements of nature: prithvi (earth), jal (water), agni (fire), vayu (air), and akasha (ether or space). The elements correlate with the senses and with particular body parts and functions and each having an energy correspondent among the chakras. We will work together to bring about deep rest, gradually renew your energy, align your focus for the year ahead and most importantly leave you feeling in balance and connected to your true nature.

Portishead Charity Workshop and Lunch
Settling in Peace
December 30th at 10:30-12 noon in the Methodist Church
Followed by optional lunch in town
This workshop is going to be focused around rest and the nervous system. I will talk a little about the vagus nerve, the neuro-transmitter GABA and why daring to rest in this busy world is essential for our health and wellbeing. The workshop will involve a short talk, gentle hatha yoga flow, a small amount of chanting, yoga nidra and gong bath.
In this special time in-between the festivities and the new year we will settle into a balanced and peaceful place, re-connecting together.
Please bring your own mat, blankets, pillows, props and wear layers. We will warm-up and naturally cool as we relax. Book online by donation. All donations will be split between two wonderful local charities, Be More Ben (The Benjamin Pritchard Foundation) and the Nicola Corry Support Foundation. Both charities provide crucial support for families at the most difficult of times and are run by incredibly inspirational people in the local area.
