🍂 Samhain – a time for reflection, endings and new beginnings
Samhain (pronounced Sow-in) is an ancient Celtic festival marking the end of the harvest and the transition from autumn into winter. Traditionally observed from 31 October into 1 November, it represents the changing seasons and the movement from the lighter half of the year into the darker months.
It is a time associated with the cycles of life, death and rebirth, remembering those who have passed, and reflecting on what we are ready to release as we move into a new season.
Nature reminds us that there is a time for growth and activity, but also a time for rest, stillness and turning inward. As the days grow shorter and the nights longer, we have an opportunity to slow down, reflect on our experiences, acknowledge change and make space for new beginnings.
This week, I’ll be incorporating some of these themes into my yoga and Reiki sessions, exploring the balance between light and darkness, the importance of letting go, and how we can navigate change and transformation with greater awareness and compassion.
My sessions this week:
🌿 Relaxation & Reiki – Monday, 12 noon–1.15pm. A chance to pause, relax and restore, with time for a chat and cake afterwards.
🌙 Yoga & Reiki – Monday, 8–9pm. An opportunity to move, breathe, relax and reflect.
✨ One-to-one Reiki
45 minutes – £40
60 minutes – £50
⭐️ A new 4 week online yoga block (16 sessions for £28 or 4 bespoke sessions for £10) on YouTube ‘Yoga and Reiki healing with Julie Jane)
Live at 7am for 30min.
I also offer one-to-one yoga and therapy sessions, including CBT, to support personal change, self-reflection, emotional wellbeing and processing grief.
If you’re going through a period of change, navigating loss, or simply need some time and space to reconnect with yourself, please get in touch to discuss how I can support you.
🍂 Sometimes moving forward begins with allowing ourselves the time to pause, reflect and let go.
