We’d love to invite you to a day of exploration and expression, through meditation, singing, drumming and sharing.
Welcoming and celebrating the Autumn equinox.
Looking at Nature throughout the year gives us so much inspiration for how to move with our lives. It reconnects us to our roots, to cyclical living. Here, we can find healing, creativity, deeper intuition and confidence.
Autumn equinox gives us equal day and night, serving a balance. It offers the opportunity to reflect, to celebrate our harvest. "What have we learnt and achieved over the past year?" It asks us "what we can let go of?" As the trees show us how to do this so majestically and colourfully 🫶
We have held monthly evening events exploring the elements in terms of sound and movement and nature. We felt it would be lovely to celebrate this wonderful moment in our calendar, to deeply connect, express and play.
All welcome, no experience needed. If any of this feels outside of your comfort zone, maybe relating to stories of “I can't sing”,"I'm not musical", know and trust that you are so so welcome and this space is completely for you.
There is no prize for sounding ‘good’ or being musically ‘correct’, it's about just gathering to make sound together! And everything is always just an invitation. Your voice matters and our passion is in creating a space to allow judgement to fall away and compassion to flood in. This is a space of authentic expression, not performance. Vision a child, with not a care in the world.
Flow of the day
☕️Opening circle & meditation
We will begin with a cup of tea in hand as we flow through an opening circle together. To welcome ourselves into the space and connect to Autumns innate intelligence, weaving through a meditation to settle and arrive.
💃Free movement to seasonal song
Through gentle guidance, we will begin to take some movement, flowing with our natural rhythm of what this season means to us.
🪘Intuitive drumming
Meandering our way then into a beautiful exploration of what this means through drum and movement. Music and sound can land so differently for us all and this day is about you and your unique expression, voice and emotion, held in a space where we are all exploring that beautiful dynamic & embracing our differences.
🎵Vocal activation
Opening, softening, releasing, allowing, letting go, welcoming in new energy. Whatever is needed. After a small moment to break, we join together again in our own uniqueness. With the serene sound of the shruti (drone instrument), acting as a comfort blanket for our voices to be heard in their raw, real, authentic expression.
🌳Silent walk around the stones & ancient landscape & 📚Journalling
Avebury offers incredible grounding energies, with ancient stones and trees and a million stories to tell. Setting the scene for the reflective part of our session together, walking in silence to Autumns teachings, before returning to journal (and share should you feel called) about our experiences.
⭕️Closing circle
We will finish our time together with a wonderful drum and song circle, infusing with our intentions for the season ahead.
🧺Optional picnic
Our time together offically finishes at 1pm, however it would be wonderful to have a picnic together. So please bring your own packed lunch if you wish to join. (There is a little fridge in the Henge Shop to keep anything cool).
