Come and join us for some seasonal nourishment at the beautiful Restoration Yard, nestled in Dalkeith Country Park.
This day aims to give you the gift of switching off and taking time to fill your cup.
The day-long experience will include a gentle flow, a luxurious sound bath meditation, delicious vegetarian lunch together, time for a gentle walk before cosying back in for breathwork and chanting. The day concludes with a restorative and yin yoga fusion, culminating in a restful yoga nidra.
We would love to share the day with you for rest, nourishment and time to just be..
Summer
Care for your inner fire.
A heart based yin mini retreat
Sunday 8th June, 2025

Come and join me for one of my signature mini-retreats. This session is centred around the upcoming Summer Solstice on 21st June - giving you some time to connect with yourself and possibly have some well deserved “cup filling” before the summer holidays kick in.
The practice will be focussed around the heart and small -intestine chi (summer meridians) and also the lung chi to help keep the respiratory system nourished. All this work will support the energy in the body to help carry you through the season and give you some tools to support yourself if you’re travelling.
As we strive to nourish the element of fire, this element reminds us that happiness is shared space and we’re on this journey together. Fire reminds us that no one goes alone.
Who is this workshop suitable for?All levels - the Yin asana can be quite intense so all props are provided to support. I will also give some restorative options if the Yin work gets too intense.
What to expect.
The workshop will begin with centering and a 10 minute slow and easy gentle flow to warm the body and help focus the mind to the breath.
Then we get into the deep Yin poses where we can really crawl into ourselves and enjoy the quiet space surrounding us.
Meditation, Yoga Nidra and grounding pranayama will complete your mini retreat and you will be ready to float home. You may wish to take a quiet day at home to enjoy the full benefits of your practice and have some good, delicious, nourishing food.
The space is warm but everyone is different - you may wish to dress in layers and have some cosy socks.
During this time of being free from requirements or expectations, I strive for you to leave with a replenished heart ready to see the good in all you do and in others too.
Late summer
The autumnal equinox session.
A supportive yin mini retreat
Sunday 14th September 2025

Why not come and retreat with me to welcome in Autumn and celebrate the Autumnal Equinox with deep rest and nourishment? This session is centred around the Autumnal Equinox - giving you some time to connect with yourself as the seasons shift and the cooler days kick in.
During this season we’re seeking to nurture the element of metal, supporting the immune system, respiratory function and settling the nervous system.
Metal also helps us to let go of what is no longer helpful and assists us in holding onto habits that are supportive and healthy.

Then we get into the deep Yin poses where we can really crawl into ourselves and enjoy the quiet space surrounding us.
The practice will be focussed around the lung and large intestine chi (autumnal meridians). All this work will help support the energy in the body to hold you through the season.
Meditation, Yoga Nidra and uplifting pranayama will complete your mini retreat and you will be ready to float home. You may wish to take a quiet day at home to enjoy the full benefits of your practice and have some good, delicious, nourishing food.

Handouts will be provided to give you information on the Autumn Equinox and some ideas you may want to incorporate into your life.
