Autumn Bothy Retreat

At this time of year, we are moving from the high Yang energy of summer into the cooler Yin period of autumn and winter. This is a time of change – the days are shortening, the colours in nature changing as the trees prepare to shed their leaves. This is the time of year to take stock, evaluate and focus on what we truly value. In the Seasonal Yoga calendar, we are working with the element of Metal which governs change, organisation and transformation. We have an amazing series of activities planned to help bring a sense of alchemy to your practice.

We come together on Friday evening in our remote little bothy at the head of the glen by the loch. Gather around the fire and learn about the energy of Autumn Yoga and Qi Gong practices. Enjoy a tasty seasonal supper and spend the night together sharing experiences, reflecting on the flames. Enjoy a little outdoor relaxing yoga and meditation before bed.

Each morning we'll start with an outdoor yoga class to set us up for the day followed by a nutritious delicious breakfast together.  Our day will be abundant with a variety of mindful activities bringing us into alignement with the energy of autumn. We will take stock of our year, preparing ourselves for the coming quieter months ahead; wandering by the loch or wild swimming in it, Qi Gong and meditation, time for journalling, and a light satisfying seasonal lunch.  The area has a wealth of wildlife and stunning scenery for those interested in more ambitious walking or photography or just being alive in nature. Tea and cake in the afternoons with some private time to wander the area or do whatever takes your fancy. Supper is around the table in the bothy, a meal shared and a relaxing evening yoga class to ready us for bed.  On Sunday we leave after lunch with warm hearts and new friendships forged.

This is a deliberately small-scale female only retreat limited to six spaces. Bothy events are fully catered with seasonal food and drink (no alcohol). You will need a sleeping bag, pillow and appropriate clothing. A full kit list is provided for you before the event. Bothy events are suitable for all levels of fitness and beginners to yoga are welcome as well as those looking to further their practice.

Meet at 6pm on Friday evening and finish at 2pm on Sunday afternoon.
