A 90 minute online session to help you cultivate your relationship with rest.

Winter is a time for turning inward, restoring and resting, but in a world that requires consistent productivity and busyness we have lost touch with our natural ability to rest. We have lost connection to the cyclical nature of the seasons that guide our own human nature and how we are meant to live.

So many of us struggle to deeply relax and rest. Our nervous systems are in a continuous state of stress and so when we try to rest it feels unfamiliar, uncomfortable and unsafe.

These sessions are to help you and your nervous system ‘come down gently’. To create the conditions for your body to do what it naturally knows to do – rest.

The winter, the darkness, and the new moon of each lunar cycle guides us towards this natural state of rest, so now is the best time for us to cultivate our relationship with rest.

This is for you if….

• You find it difficult to sit still and meditate.

• You feel guilty for resting and not being productive.

• You have a sense of urgency and often feel on edge.

• Your days have no ‘gaps’. You hop from one thing to the next. There is no breathing space.

• You feel overwhelmed with communication from your email, messages, social media…..

• You swing between being busy, busy, busy and burnt out.

• You keep busy to avoid sitting still with yourself.

• You find it hard to unwind and switch off at night.

What we’ll be doing….

• Exploring the states within our nervous system and understanding why we find it hard to rest.

• ‘Coming down gently’ - Creating a movement practice to release stress from the body.

• Somatic practices to regulate the nervous system and create a baseline of rest in the body.

• Guided meditation and breath practices to allow you to experience deep rest.

• Music, poetry and cosy vibes to allow us to connect to the stillness of the new moon.
