“Spring has returned. The earth is like a child that knows poems.”

~ Rilke ~

As we approach the spring equinox, the mounting energy in the natural world become impossible to ignore. New born lambs tottering in the fields, daffodils lining the verges, the world moving from its neutral winter palette to something altogether more verdant. It’s time at last for us to emerge from our months of winter quietude and embrace the gifts of spring.

Join Emma and Wendy for a three hour celebration of the Spring Equinox at Quinton Old Rectory. Our afternoon will begin with some energising outdoor yoga on the lawn. Suitable for all levels of experience, we’ll enjoy a pacey flow to warm the body and stimulate the spirit. We’ll then experience an outdoor walking meditation inspired by forest bathing, helping us to connect with the burgeoning nature in the garden, followed by (optional but recommended) actual bathing in the garden’s swimming pond. The temperature of the water will be bracing but we guarantee you’ll feel amazing afterwards. We’ll be heading indoors after that, to warm up with seasonal herbal tea and homemade cakes before settling down for some journalling and a closing visualisation. You’ll leave feeling inspired and full of the joys of spring.

Spaces at the celebration cost £40, and are limited to 16. To book, click on the highlighted date in the calendar below. You’ll receive an email with full joining instructions, including a list of what to bring, in the week before the event.

** Please note as some of the activities will take place outdoors, the celebration is weather dependent. In the event of inclement weather on 16 March, the event will be postponed and full refunds offered to those who have reserved spaces **
