Through journeying, drumming, rattling, movement and community practice, participants will explore spiritual connection, healing and divination. Across the weekend, you will develop practical skills for journeying independently and with others, while exploring nature as the visible face of spirit.
Opening to Silence
This weekend of deep meditation and yoga offers space to discover that – quite naturally – you are already whole. Sam Settle and Sandy Chubb will guide periods of silence, allowing time to become intimate with the presence of who you are. As the mind and heart quieten, the ego softens, and something new begins. Asana and pranayama sessions will gently free the body, supporting ease in seated meditation. Set within the beautiful landscape of Braziers Park, the weekend also offers time to enjoy nature by day and beneath the crescent moon and stars by night.
