Attuning to Earth’s Rhythm. Honoring Inner Harvest. Pausing in the Lush Stillness of the Season.

Late summer is a threshold — a quiet, golden pause between the fullness of summer’s height and the descent into autumn’s inward turning. In this transitional space, we are invited to ground ourselves, to nourish body and spirit, and to tend the inner harvest of what we’ve been growing — within and without.

Rooted in the wisdom of the Earth element and inspired by the ancient Celtic festival of Lughnasa, this 4-week journey weaves together yoga, breathwork, gentle somatic movement, and meditation. Together, we will align our inner rhythms with the slow turning of the seasons.

Class Highlights:

• Restorative Yoga Poses: Melt into supportive poses that promote relaxation and stress relief.

• Gentle Movement: Move through yoga sequencing and somatic explorations to connect with body wisdom. Designed to nourish and replenish your whole self. Suitable for all levels.

• Mindful Breathing: Learn breathing techniques to enhance mindfulness and invite the body into deeper rest.

• Guided Meditation: Enjoy soothing meditations that weave each week’s theme into the practice.

• Sacred Singing: Allow yourself to receive the healing vibrations of song as an expression of love, healing, and vitality. The songs arise from the divine source within, from a deep place of intuition and spiritual attunement. The sounds and syllables are not of any recognized language or common refrain but rather give voice from the womb and speak to the soul beyond words.

• Extra Perks: Mats will be set up and provided for each class. Each class will feature aromatherapy or a featured flower essence and warm towels.

Week 1- Celebrate Your Inner Harvest

We often think of “harvest” as something that comes with autumn’s turning, but in the Celtic Wheel of the Year, Lughnasa arrives on August 1st. It marks the first fruits of the harvest — a time to pause, sense, and honor the abundance already present in the earth, and within ourselves.

This week’s session invites you to come home to your body as a living landscape — to notice what feels full, what feels steady, and what has quietly ripened beneath the surface.

Week 2- Thresholds

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, late summer is associated with the Earth Element. It is the threshold, the transition or the bridge between the high, outward energy of summer and the quiet turning inward of autumn.

Through this week’s exploration of the Earth Element, we will attune to the pause — the breath between seasons — and root ourselves in the nourishment and steadiness of stillness.

Week 3- Balance

We will continue our exploration of the Earth Element with practices that bring balance to body and breath, offering steadiness and nourishment through times of change. This week will feature Sunflower flower essence.

Week 4 - Axis

As we close this series, we turn inward toward the axis — the pivot point from which smooth transitions arise. With the support of Goldenrod flower essence, this week invites us to stand firmly in our true self, strengthening our inner backbone against external pressures.

Goldenrod, also known for opening the third eye chakra, encourages clarity, confidence, and the courage to trust ourselves, while creating space for deeper intuition and inner knowing.
