Winter's Call : Tending the Bones

  • Lila Yoga 37 Bruntsfield Place Edinburgh, Scotland, EH10 4HJ United Kingdom (map)

I invite you once more to join me in circle at Lila Yoga to heed Winter’s Call and tend to the Bones of your being.

To me, this time of the year always calls for a deep physical, mental, and spiritual resilience. Winter’s Solstice has passed, the days have begun to lengthen, and holding onto that promise of Spring on it’s way brings a warm solace to the heart for sure. Yet, we still have many dark nights and weeks of Winters cold to move through.
In my herbal practice, this is the time I tend to see folks picking up more bugs and being less able to shift them, taking longer to recover, and generally feeling exhausted, depleted, and low.
So, for this gathering, we will talk of ways to tend to your physical body. We will spend some time discussing adrenal function and balance and how this relates to physical health and the immune system, and immune function itself.
We will sip on a bespoke blend of herbs to bring warmth and vitality, nourish the adrenal energy, and strengthen immune defences, discussing the energetics and medicinal properties of these herbs and when best to put them to use.
Then, we will settle into a guided drumming journey, drawing our energy and conciousness inward to explore the balance of energy within and the strength of the boundaries of the body and spirit.

These circles are open to all. Everyone is welcome and all sit in equality in these spaces, as community. Each one is held and heard in turn.

You need not have any experience of herbal medicine or shamanic journeying to join.

A yoga mat, bolster, and blanket will be provided for you but please bring anything else you may need to be comfortable for the evening.

Exchange is £65 for each circle / £180 for the winter series of 3.
