In nature, nothing grows in winter, yet everything is being prepared. Seeds rest in the dark soil, gathering what they need.
Tonight, we do the same.
The days between Christmas and New Year are a strange, quiet pause: the busyness has passed and the new year hasn't yet begun. It's the perfect time to stop, look back, and plant something new.
The evening
Arrive and settle. Candlelight, blankets and herbal tea.
Looking back. A few minutes of gentle journaling to clear the ground: what did this year teach me, what am I ready to leave behind, and what is quietly asking to grow? Your answers stay private.
Yin: preparing the ground. Slow, supported shapes held in stillness, with the same questions returning gently as you rest.
Seed-planting yoga nidra (45 minutes). A deeply restful guided journey. You'll find your sankalpa, a short seed intention such as I am rooted, I trust myself or I am ready, then walk into a quiet winter garden, plant it in the dark soil and watch it grow through the seasons of the coming year.
Close. Write your intention on plantable seed paper to take home and plant in the spring, so it literally grows.
