🍁 Come and join me and Alice Short of Equine Elements to celebrate the Autumn Equinox on Sunday September 27th.
🍂 This half day retreat celebrates the changing of the seasons. As we enter Autumn we think of change, as the leaves change colour and fall from the trees we can also look within ourselves to make changes, and let go of things that no longer serve us.
🌳 Join me for a 2 hour Forest Bathing session which I will tailor around the theme of "transformation, change and letting go"
🌿 Forest Bathing is an evidence based, NHS endorsed therapeutic practise that connects people to natural environments through gentle, sensory based activities
🍵 There will be a short comfort break before Alice and her herd of therapy horses take over;
🐴 Horses are gentle animals and can have a huge therapeutic benefits for us. They encourage us to focus on the moment, connect with our inner selves and much more.
As you connect with the herd or a particular horse, Alice will guide you through some gentle sensory activities. Around the theme of 'letting go' for example, Autumn 🍂 is the time of year horses start to shed their coats and grow a thicker winter coat. There may be some grooming involved for e.g. (please be mindful of this if you are allergic to horses!)
🍁🔥 We will end with a group gathering around a fire pit, with a Tea Ceremony which we always do to close a Forest Bathing session.
⏰️ The late finish will allow us to sit as the sun sets....
