A Yoga Movement & Meditation Autumn Equinox Day Retreat
with Delamay Devi
Byron Hinterland, Bundjalung Country
17 March 2024
You’re invited to a nourishing day in honour of the Equinox and dedicated to taking care of you!
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. This day retreat is designed to support your journey through Autumn with balancing embodiment practices, wholesome food and self care activities that will leave you feeling replenished on all levels.

Recharge
Replenish
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 and meditate in alignment of this Equinox time.
The day retreat was filled with magic, beauty and nourishment on all levels. A sacred container was created in which I felt held in a gentle and safe space. I am deeply grateful to have dived so deeply into embodied movement, intention setting and self reflection for the coming cycle ahead. Thank you so much!

The Art of Creating Themed Practices For Your Students
Open to all yoga teachers!
Join Delamay as we explore the inspiring art of creating themed practices for your community. Delamay will share with you her creative process of crafting and curating intentional practices on and off the yoga mat. Together we’ll cover creating practices based on yoga poses, the elements, the chakras, specific feeling states and musicology. A hand out will be given and bring your questions!
Autumn Inspired Taoist Meditation Forest Bathing
Open to all lovers of nature!
Take an elemental journey into the surrounding lands with mindfulness and meditation guided by Tai Chi Forest. Witness the changes of the autumnal season and tune into the intimate teachings of Mother Earth. Forest bathing helps to reduce stress levels, improves mental health and boosts the immune health. No experience necessary, it is about reconnecting and remembering that we are one with nature!
Warming & Wholesome Nourishment
Lunch, heathy snacks and tea is included!
Warming nourishment will be served to ground, energise and feed tasty goodness to your body. According to Ayurveda, Autumn time is Vata time. Vata is predominately Air and Ether, meaning our bodies need more oily, nutrient dense cooked foods which are are high in protein and good fats to help to maintain your internal reserves of moisture and keep you warm and grounded through cooler seasons.
