The Wintering Retreat
An afternoon of yoga, nature, reflection & deep rest at The Yoga Yurt.
Join Isis du Jour for an afternoon of deep rest, reflection and rejuvenation at The Yoga Yurt.
As the days grow shorter and nature begins to slow down, The Wintering Retreat offers a beautiful opportunity to pause, step away from the busyness of everyday life and reconnect with the quieter rhythm of the season.
We’ll begin with a gentle and restorative yoga practice, guiding you through slow, mindful movement, nourishing stretches and breathwork to soften the body, release tension and settle the mind. This spacious practice is designed to encourage you to slow down, listen inward and arrive fully in the present moment.
Afterwards, we’ll gather for warming herbal teas, homemade cake and wholesome seasonal treats, a chance to nourish yourself, relax and connect with others in the cosy surroundings of the Yurt.
We’ll then turn our attention towards the winter landscape and the wisdom of the season. If the weather allows, we’ll step outside for a gentle nature connection, taking time to slow our pace and mindfully notice the sights, sounds, textures and stillness of the natural world around us. If the weather is cold or wet, we’ll bring this experience indoors with a guided sensory visualisation inspired by the winter landscape.
Returning to the warmth of the Yurt, you’ll be guided through a winter-inspired reflection and journalling session, with gentle prompts exploring rest, release, renewal and what you would like to make space for in the season ahead. This is an invitation to turn inward, listen to what you need and embrace the quieter energy of winter.
The retreat will then move into a deeply restorative Yoga Nidra & Sound Journey. As you settle into stillness, a guided Yoga Nidra practice will lead you towards a state of profound relaxation, accompanied by the soothing and grounding sounds of Himalayan singing bowls and other beautiful sound healing instruments.
We’ll close the afternoon with a quiet closing circle and winter intention, giving you a moment to reflect on your experience and carry a little of the calm and spaciousness of the retreat with you into the weeks ahead.
The Wintering Retreat is an invitation to slow down, nourish yourself and embrace the natural rhythm of the season, creating space to rest, reflect and gently renew.
