Resting Warming Nourishing
A Yoga, Somatic Movement & Meditation Winter Solstice Day Retreat
with Delamay Devi
Myocum, Byron Hinterland / Bundjalung Country
23 June 2024
You’re invited to retreat for a nourishing day in honour of the Winter Solstice!
Winter encourages us to hibernate, to be cosy and warm and to rest deeply in our nest while restoring our entire being after the heightened activities of the past nine months. The Winter Solstice marks the longest night and shortest day of the entire year making it a perfect time to tend to your inner fire, to shed the old and to cleanse your lens before the reemergence of Spring. This day retreat is designed to support your journey through hibernation with warming and balancing embodiment practices, nourishing homemade wholesome food and healing self care activities that will leave you feeling deeply rested and restored on all levels.

Our Day Retreat Highlights
Our Winter Solstice day retreat offers X2 yoga, somatic movement and meditation practices, an angelic sound healing session, full moon astrology insights and intentional journalling, infrared sauna and salt water pool plunge, a letting go fire ceremony plus homemade wholesome lunch with ample hot tea and afternoon snacks!
Regardless if you’re a yoga teacher or not, we’ve created this day retreat to nourish all. For all, you’ll be venturing into nature to explore stillness through Daoist Meditation with Tai Chi Forest. For yoga teachers you’ll have the option of diving into the art of giving sublime shavasana assists with Delamay, together we’ll explore this healing art form through gentle touch while refining our energetic kinesphere and ability to tune into others.
Sublime Shavasana Assists
Open to all yoga teachers!
Join Delamay as we explore the art of giving sublime assists in shavasana. She will share with you her absolute favourite techniques when offering hands on assists during relaxation time using touch while fine-tuning your energetic and kinesphere awareness plus Thai massage methods to enhance and deepen your students experience. We’ll have a discussion on consent and there’ll be time for questions too.
Daoist Meditation
Reconnect with your inner essence through Daoist meditation. Tune into the elemental forces of nature and rediscover lightness and balance that you can apply during busy times. Learn to recognise the harmonies of the innate nature of the world and how to harness the yin and yang energies in your life. Meditation and breathwork affect the physical, emotional and mental aspects of your being more profoundly than any other practice.
Warming Nourishment
Lunch, heathy snacks and ample hot tea!
Warming homemade foods and tea will be included to nourish, energise and feed tasty goodness to your body during this time of hibernation. Through the Winter months our bodies crave warm foods which are easy to digest, this then contributes to a strong immune system all Winter long! Food included will be vegan, gluten free and organic where possible. Add any food allergies during registration.
