A Day of Qigong, Forest Bathing, Breathwork and Poetry set in the beauty of the Sunhouse and surrounding woodland

This day is about connection. Connecting to ourselves, to our breath, our bodies and our hearts, connecting to each other to the energy of the group, connecting with our environment, to the forest, the plants, animals, birds, the spring sunshine. And from here we will tune into our connection with something greater. Call it source, Qi, the web of life, the infinite intelligence of the universe. To that feeling inside, a quiet sense of trust, the awareness that we are part of something vast, meaningful and beautiful. 

We will begin in the Sunhouse with some spring Qigong, opening our bodies, our senses and our energy field. In this morning practice we will slow down together, and come in to alignment with our-selves and our-cells, our bodies and our breath. From this place of ease and openness we can step into a deeper connection with the world around us, with the soil beneath our feet, the breeze on our skin, the sounds of bird song. Where we can begin to recognise, to feel, to smell our essential nature of inter-beingness intimately connected to all of life.

Then its time for some forest bathing. We will head into the woods together to connect with the living Earth. As we walk through the trees, we will take time to pause and play with our Qigong moving meditations, listening to the forest around us, waking up the wild within us. 

After a delicious lunch, we will lie down and relax into the support of the ground to receive a deep healing Breathwork Session. We will use conscious connected breathing to encourage detoxification of your body, releasing stuck energy and beliefs and resetting your whole nervous system. Giving you the tools to transform and to let go of whatever may be holding you back from living the life you truly want to live.

A unique and beautiful day for soul nourishment.
