MAR: Equinox New Moon Embodied Ritual ~ Online
21 March
You’re invited to join Delamay online as we honour and celebrate the Equinox and New Moon cycle with clear intention setting, insightful astrology wisdom and a creative yoga practice in alignment with the frequency of these potent times.
“The only constant is change.” Equinox times remind us that our bodies, minds and surroundings are always transforming and changing. It highlights the the impermanence of life, emphasising how vital it is to embrace the present and to go with the flow ~ By doing so, we learn to surf the waves of change and appreciate what we have before it is gone.
Each season and cycle represents a different stage of life within ourselves. The spiritual meaning of an Equinox represents a powerful gateway of becoming, a time to check in, to re-evaluate, to refine, to recalibrate and to keep on rising as we embrace inner and outer change.
At this time of year the days and nights are the same length, so many ancient and current cultures associate this day with the concept of balance, equilibrium and celebration!
During this Equinox New Moon Embodied Ritual Delamay will offer astrology insights, journalling prompts, a 3-part Tarot card reading, a guided meditation with clear intentional setting for the brand new cycle ahead plus a Prana Flow yoga practice with self massage and self love before sinking into a soulful relaxation while being bathed in mystic poetry.
You’ll need: a journal and writing material, a candle, tarot cards (if you dont have any Delamay will offer a group reading), a smudge stick or incense for cleansing your space, massage oil and a yoga mat plus any props you like to use.

Join Delamay for a day retreat dedicated to nourishing and taking care of YOU!
We’ll tap into the healing powers of nature as we move, breathe , receive and restore together in the peaceful Byron Hinterland.
Autumn time invites us to return to balance after the heat, humidity and busyness of summer. Our days are shorter, the temperature is cooler, the leaves on the trees change colour and just like us, nature is preparing herself for the cool changes of the months ahead.
Receive the healing medicine of taking time out just for you as you give yourself permission to disconnect from your daily routine to recharge and to simply BE with a like-minded community in the peaceful Byron Hinterland. Together we’ll breathe, move, explore, share, receive, meditate and practice in alignment with this Autumnal time.
Our Day Retreat Highlights
Our day retreat together offers: X2 yoga, movement and meditation practices with Delamay, an Astrology lecture with in-house astrologer Vicki, a deeply relaxing sound healing journey while being bathed in mystic poetry and warming chai with healthy snacks and a nourishing lunch!
There’s something for everyone: For non yoga teachers you’ll be venturing out into nature for a Taoist Meditation and Forest Bathing experience with Aimo. For yoga teachers you’ll have the option of diving into the sacred art of Hands on Assists with Delamay as we explore this empowering tool for enhancing your students journey on the mat.

The Sacred Art of Hands on Assists: Open to all yoga teachers! Join Delamay as we explore this empowering art form of giving hands on adjustments when teaching 1:2:1 and during group classes.

A hand out will be given and bring your questions!
Warming Balancing Nourishment: Lunch, heathy snacks and warming chai is included to support this Autumnal time! According to Ayurveda, Autumn time is Vata time. Vata is predominately Air and Ether, meaning this cooler dryer climate can cause our skin to dry out, our digestion could be sluggish, our minds may be more scattered and our body can begin to feel tight and stiff. This day retreat is all about balancing the Vata qualities through the embodiment practices and food we eat.
Regardless if you’re a yoga teacher or not, we’ve created this day retreat to suit and nourish all.

JULY: Cacao & Breathwork Alchemy, Brighton UK
2 JULY
Cacao & Breathwork Alchemy
Fusing two powerful and medicinal practices as the full moon illuminates the sky for an afternoon of ceremony, embodied ritual and connection.
Cacao is the medicine of the heart, the gateway to our inner wisdom and pulse of life while the breath is our life-force energy, keeping us alive and connected. When working with these two powerful allies they generate and activate transformational alchemy in the mind, body and spirit.
Join Delamay for an afternoon of ceremony and ritual as we tap into the full moon energy, aligning with the wisdom of our hearts and letting the breath be our guide. Together we’ll share an intentional Cacao ceremony as we offer our seed intentions to the earth while drinking the elixir before transitioning through some gentle movement, preparing the body for a progressive breath practice.
Our breath is the most powerful tool, keeping us grounded and connected in the physical body. It directly affects our nervous system and influences our mental, emotional and physical wellbeing in a therapeutic way. When we consciously connect to the breath, we feel and tap into greater parts of ourselves, unveiling the totality of our unconscious to our consciousness.
Benefits may include, reprogramming outdated patterns, releasing negative habits, removing old stagnate energy and dissolving stressful attachments.
Ultimately conscious breathing has the potential to transform the quality of your life on all levels! Open to and suitable for all.
10% EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT WHEN BOOKING BOTH EVENTS WITH DELAMAY (1ST & 2ND JULY)
UP UNTIL SATURDAY 24TH JUNE. FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS WHEN BOOKING TO RECEIVE DISCOUNT
The cacao elixir will be gluten free, vegan and sourced sustainably.
Cacao has been used for centuries as a “plant medicine” due to its heart opening and healing qualities. When grown and consumed consciously it carries a vibrational essence that may open you up to a higher level of healing. Nutritional benefits include: High in antioxidants, plant-based iron, magnesium and calcium. It is a natural mood booster and is an antidepressant.

AUG: Somatic Languaging workshop ~ Online
8 August
An introduction to Somatic languaging to offer your students a deeper and richer embodiment journey while caring for their entire wellbeing.
“When we are grounded in our awareness, we can be more present with what we are experiencing in our bodies — in all the spaces that live between our head and our feet.” ~ Raegan Robinson
Somatic: Relating to the material body as separate from the mind, soul or spirit. A Latinised form of the Greek word; sōmatikos meaning of the body.
Somatic languaging speaks directly to the cells and subtle body, it encompasses the mind-body action, engaging the senses and overall perception of the entire experience. It’s all about getting curious, descriptive and staying close to what’s happening in and around the body.
The language we use contributes to and influences our students’ embodiment journey from the moment we greet them to the moment we say goodbye. It also leaves a residue within their energy field which can influence their entire day.
By using and becoming fluent in Somatic languaging we offer our students a richer and more aware experience, leaving them and their nervous system feeling deeply nourished, emotionally cared for and at ease.
During this workshop you’ll experience and learn:
~ The origins of Somatics and the different types of modalities.
~ Movement as a Somatic practice.
~ Refining the poetry of the body.
~ Different styles of languaging.
~ How to engage Somatically.
~ Integrating Somatic languaging in your classes.
~ A Somatic yoga, movement and meditation practice with Delamay.
~ Plus there’ll be time for Q + A and group discussion.
Suitable for all teachers of embodiment, including yoga, dance, fitness instructors, personal trainers and coaches. If you’re unsure please contact Delamay for more details.
You’ll receive a PDF manual to download which we’ll be working through together. This session will be live on Zoom and the recording will be sent to all who register within 24hrs with unlimited access.
Please note there are no refunds. If you can’t make it live with us on Zoom the recording will be send within 24hrs.

Together we’ll journey through movement meditation, somatic exploration and a Prana Vinyasa yoga flow, preparing the body for a progressive breathwork practice.
When working with these powerful allies and medicinal practices they generate and activate transformational alchemy in the mind, body and spirit. Leaving you feeling energised, clear, inspired and open to the flow of life!
Our breath is the most powerful tool, keeping us grounded and connected in the physical body. It positively supports our nervous system and influences our mental, emotional and physical wellbeing.
When we consciously connect to the breath in a progressive way, we feel and tap into greater parts of ourselves, unveiling the totality of our unconscious to our consciousness. Benefits may include, reprogramming outdated patterns, releasing negative habits, removing old stagnate energy and dissolving stressful attachments.

Embodiment Practices for the Doshas – A 40 hour Yoga and Ayurveda immersion at Yoga Nordic.
3.9.2023 8.00 – 18.00: Vata Dosha module
9.9.2023 8.00 – 18.00: Kapha Dosha module
10.9.2023 8.00 – 18.00: Tridosha overview and review module while creating your individual routine for ongoing optimal health and wellbeing.
Each day includes two Prana Vinyasa yoga practices, movement meditation, mudras and chanting, self-massage techniques, Ayurveda lecture, dietary and food introduction, self-enquiry and check in plus the seven pillars of self-care.
Learn, experience and embody the tools and techniques needed to be in a healthy state of equilibrium all year long with Prana Vinyasa yoga and ancient Ayurveda knowledge.
By tapping into the ancient wisdom of Yoga and Ayurveda we can bring our individual constitutions back into balance for optimal wellness and wellbeing through an individual and integrated embodiment approach that is suitable for all doshas.
The word Ayurveda in Sanskrit means ‘science of life. ‘ Ayu means ‘life’ or ‘daily living’ and Veda is ‘knowing’. Ayurveda is often said to be the sister of yoga, it is a science that offers meaning and insight into our individual inner and outer rhythms and the rhythms of the world.
What Are The Doshas?
The three primary doshas or constitutions are Pitta, Vata, and Kapha. Each represents two of the five elements: Earth (Pritvi / Bhumi), Water (Jala), Fire (Agni), Air (Vayu) and Space (Akasha). Pitta is a combination of Fire and Water elements, Kapha is made of Water and Earth elements and Vata is a mixture of Air and Space. Our true nature or prakriti, is the constitution or the specific mix of doshas we were born with.
When our doshas are in balance, it means they are close to their original, healthy and optimal states of being. If our lifestyle is pretty erratic or if events happen that are out of our control (like a pandemic) it causes an imbalance which can lead to elevated states of stress and anxiety resulting in the mind / body / spirit disconnect and imbalance that eventually leads to dis-ease.
Immersion overview
- Learn how to positively respond to imbalances by identifying when your body, mind and soul needs to rest, restore and reset.
- Establish a daily routine or Dinacharya of tuning into the innate wisdom of your body with increased self-knowledge.
- Discover your unique and individual constitution while identifying others around you.
- Learn about the Mahabhuta’s or the 5 Great Elements and how they express in the world and determine existence.
- Understand Ritucharya or seasonal routine changes to skilfully adapt throughout the year.
- Understand Ratricharya or nightly routine for good quality rest each night to wake up feeling refreshed and energised.
- Maintaining Sama Agni or Balance Fire, the fortifying intelligence within each cell / system of the body.
- Using the seven pillars of self-care and how to follow from them daily.
- Hear music suitable for each dosha to deepen meditation and encourage movement daily for balancing and centering your mind, body and spirit.
This course is registered with Yoga Alliance offers certified yoga teachers 40 hours of continued professional development.

SEPT: Virgo New Moon Restorative Yoga + Somatic Movement Meditation Ritual ~ Online
14 September
Welcome to this Virgo New Moon Restorative Yoga and Somatic Movement Meditation online Embodied Ritual with Delamay Devi.
During this 90 minute intentional gathering you’ll experience a slow moving and deeply restorative practice to reset your nervous system, clarify your vision and seed intentions for the coming cycle.
A Virgo lunation highlights attention to detail and reminds us that anything worth doing is worth doing well! New Moons hold space for us to bring shape and form to our vision and the Virgo archetype encourages us to roll up our sleeves and do the hard work needed to manifest the reality we want to live in. It’s time to build our vision with our own two hands, starting slowly from the ground up while nurturing our nervous system with self love and self care.
This Embodied Ritual includes astrology insight, reflective journalling questions, a tarot card reading followed by a slow moving and deeply restorative lunar prana flow yoga practice. Moving from form to formlessness our embodied practice transforms into a Somatic Movement Meditation before sinking into a healing and balancing shavasana while being bathed in soft frequencies of sound healing.
Virgo’s frequency encourages us embrace our authentic self with compassion, forgiveness, and strength.This season brings an opportunity to show up as you truly are and to realise your inherent self-worth. It’s time to let go of self-doubt, perfectionism, and self-criticism as you step into your potential.
Allow this Virgo New Moon help you to fully accept and step into your worth and cultivate a life that is a reflection of your hearts desires. You deserve love, you deserve happiness, and you deserve to have people who accept you for who you are. These are not things you need to jump through hoops for. Rather, they are your birthright as a human!
You’ll need: a yoga mat, a candle, writing material, a deck of Tarot cards (if you dont have any Delamay will be pulling group cards for you) and any props for a restorative yoga practice and a blanket for relaxation time at the end.

SEPT: Equinox Yoga Movement Meditation Embodied Ritual ~ Online
21 September
You’re invited to join Delamay online to experience a balancing, insightful and inspirational practice in honour of the Equinox!
“Change is inevitable. Growth is optional.” ~ John Maxwell
The Equinox reminds us that we live in rhythm with nature. This seasonal rhythmic dance influences our day right through to the full cycle of the year from Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring, mother nature is constantly teaching us how to ride the waves of change with ease. Just as she effortlessly sheds her leaves and quietly extends her roots further into the earth, we have the opportunity again and again to shake off the old to welcome in the new.
Astrologically this Equinox marks the beginning of Libran season, so naturally our attention is drawn to any imbalance and disharmony between giving and receiving in our relationships. The Libran Archetype spotlights our healing journey of navigating and mastering the complexities of connection and encourages us to learn about ourselves through the mirror of the Other.
The spiritual meaning of an Equinox represents a powerful gateway of becoming, an invitation to check in, to re-evaluate, to refine, to recalibrate and to keep on rising and transforming as we embrace this change.
Regardless if you’re in the northern or southern hemisphere, this gathering honours both the blossoming of Spring and the graceful cooling of Autumn.
During this Equinox Embodied Ritual Delamay will offer astrology insights, journalling prompts, a 3-part Tarot card reading, a guided movement meditation leading into a Prana Vinyasa yoga practice with self massage before gliding into a soulful relaxation while being bathed in mystic poetry.
You’ll need: a journal and writing material, a candle, tarot cards (if you dont have any Delamay will offer a group reading), a smudge stick or incense for cleansing your space, massage oil and a yoga mat plus any props you like to use.

-
Meeting the Somatic self through the landscape of the Elements.

Refining your sensation dialogue with experiential experiencing.

Trusting your intuition, your voice and individual language toolbox.
