Syzygy Review
"It really was an amazing afternoon. It has been a long time since I have spent time with such amazing people who share the same interests as me. Being in nature was incredibly grounding for me and I did a lot of self reflection which has been massive and I intend to continue!! It was truly mind blowing and can’t wait until the next when I feel myself."
Restorative Yoga and Reiki Drum Journey/Meditation Afternoon with Elaine
This will be a beautiful afternoon with the opportunity to give back to oneself. We will start with a restorative yoga practice starting by laying down inviting mind and body to feel more relaxed. Along the way bringing some calming breathing exercises. We will playfully explore with some very gentle yoga moves allowing a natural release.
We will then move gently back down to earth for a Reiki Drum Journey/meditation. You may also (if you like) receive one to one Reiki Drum healing.
Reiki is a system of natural healing. Reiki is a non- invasive therapy and can be used along with other therapies. There will be sweet treats at the end of the session to ground you.
No experience necessary. Any questions please feel free to contact me directly.

A Yin Yoga Workshop with a focus on Silence, Stillness & Quiet
My next Workshop will be on Saturday 3rd October 13:30-15:30 at the Elephant Rooms in Draycott & will be a Yin session.
I love having themes & teaching about various ideas & Philosophies in my classes & Workshops; however I also recognise that too much talking can be a distraction from our practice.
Yoga is about “union”, connecting to ourselves, & being quiet develops this ability, especially in a World that is so noisy & full of distractions.
Therefore the main focus of the session will be about silence. So much healing and growth is to be found when we embrace the power of quiet.
This is the perfect time to be a little more “Yin” like as we will be in late Summer (Earth)/Autumn (Metal) season. The time for being very Yang like is drawing to a close as we head towards the end of the year. We will focus on “grounding” poses that connect us to the earth.
At the beginning of the practice we will focus on our breath, allowing a slowing down before we take time to meditate and visualise. Once prepared we will spend the rest of the session in longer Yin holds.
Investment: £25 via Bookwhen

Sound Gong Bath
A Sound / Gong Bath is a vibrational healing sensation that helps still the mind and soothe the soul. It can be an unforgettable experience for those who seek deep relaxation, rejuvenation and an acceleration of their inward journey. Time is suspended as you enter a world of vibration, sensation and experiences. Physical injuries may be healed, and old emotional traumas may be released. People may often find resolutions to emotional issues during this time.
This journey gives you the opportunity to explore yourself in a deeper level of consciousness.

“Into The Dream” An Introduction to Lucid Dreaming
Into the Dream: An Introduction to Lucid Dreaming
We spend a third of our lives asleep, and yet most of us meet that world only unconsciously or in fragments. Lucid dreaming can change this by bringing more awareness into the dreaming state itself.
Lucid dreaming is the experience of becoming aware that you are dreaming whilst in the dream. Not recalling a dream afterwards, but waking up inside it, with full consciousness, while it is still happening. It is one of the most remarkable states the human mind can access. And it is something you can learn.
In this immersive half-day retreat, Giorgia Bettili, clinical hypnotherapist and dream coach, will lead you into the world of conscious dreaming. Using hypnosis as the doorway, you will discover how your dreaming mind works, experience a guided hypnotic journey into the dream state, and leave with simple, practical tools to begin your own practice from that very night.
No experience of hypnosis or lucid dreaming is needed, just bring an open and curious mind.
What to expect:
— A warm welcome and opening to settle into the space
— An introduction to the dreaming mind and how lucid dreaming works
— A guided hypnosis journey into the conscious dream state
— Practical techniques: dream journalling, reality checks and sleep intention-setting
— A personal dream plan to take home and begin that night
— Space to reflect, share and ask questions
What to bring:
Your yoga mat and a blanket for extra comfort during the hypnosis sessions.
A pillow or cushion if you like to feel fully supported lying down or sitting.
A notebook and pen.
Comfortable clothes.
And most importantly, an open mind and a curiosity about your own subconscious world.
About Giorgia:
Giorgia is a certified clinical hypnotherapist and NLP practitioner with over a decade of Buddhist meditation practice, including extended periods in retreat centres across Europe. Her path into conscious dreaming grew out of a deep fascination with sleep, consciousness and the inner life, and she has trained with leading figures in the lucid dreaming world including Charlie Morley, Robert Waggoner and Dr Clare Johnson. She is the founder of Lucid Mind Hypnotherapy, specialising in sleep and the dreaming mind.

Red Tent Gathering
A cosy Red Tent gathering to honour your cycle, connect with womb wisdom and explore cycle syncing in sacred sisterhood.
For generations, women have gathered together to rest, share, bleed, listen, nurture and honour the rhythms of their bodies.
This Red Tent is an invitation to return to that kind of space.
Together we’ll slow down and explore the menstrual cycle beyond simply counting the days between periods connecting with the different phases of the cycle, cycle syncing, supportive practices for menstruation, and ways to honour your body rather than constantly asking it to operate at the same pace.
There’ll be space to connect with your womb, reflect on your own cycle and share in sisterhood within a cosy, held and welcoming environment.
You don’t need to be bleeding on the day, and you don’t need to know anything about cycle syncing or womb wisdom beforehand. Come exactly as you are. 🌙
A soft evening of rest, connection, conversation and remembering the wisdom already held within your body. ❤️

Between Ethics and Essence - Exploring the Spiritual Closet in Therapeutic Practice.

This workshop is an invitation to explore that tender space with honesty, care, curiosity, and professional grounding.

Family Constellation Workshop
Rafe Nauen has been dedicated to the practice of Family Constellations for over 20 years. His work involves guiding individuals and groups through this transformative therapeutic process. By exploring the dynamics within family systems, Rafe helps participants uncover the root causes of their issues, facilitating healing and personal growth. His holistic approach considers the emotional, psychological, and relational aspects of family dynamics. Remarkably, this method requires no genealogical information, tapping into cell memory to achieve profound results.
Family Constellations is a therapeutic method designed to identify and resolve deep-seated family issues. It involves setting up a "constellation" of the family system, using group participants or objects to represent family members. This setup reveals hidden patterns, entanglements, and unresolved issues within the family. The process can illuminate the impact of past traumas, loyalties, and emotional burdens that affect the present.
Applications of Family Constellations
Resolving Family Conflicts: Helps individuals understand and resolve conflicts that have persisted across generations.
Healing Trauma: Addresses and heals the impact of past traumas within the family system.
Improving Relationships: Enhances understanding and relationships among family members.
Personal Growth: Supports individual development by uncovering and resolving systemic issues.
Testimonials "Rafe's Family Constellations sessions have been life-changing. I was able to understand and heal long-standing family issues that I never thought possible."
"The insights I gained from Rafe's guidance were profound. His approach is compassionate and deeply effective."
"Participating in a Family Constellations workshop with Rafe was a transformative experience. It helped me see my family dynamics in a completely new light."

Derby Sacred Circle - New Moon and The Elder Tree at Upperdown Meadow
The New Moon is a fantastic time for renewal, to set intentions and to manifest.
The world is a busy place with lots of noise, and it can feel like we’re being pulled in different directions. Attuning to natural rhythms can help us live more purposefully. The dark sky of the New Moon signals the end of one lunar cycle and the birth of another, offering the opportunity to clear out stagnant energy and move forward with intention.
We would love to invite you to sit around the fire with us under the New Moon. We believe sitting in circle around a fire is connecting to an old way of being, that we feel deep within our bones.
Like the Druids and Celts before us, we have a great reverence for trees. During this series of circles, we will be honouring trees in the Ogham Calender., where each new moon is associated with a sacred tree.
We will be honouring the great Elder during our first gathering in November. Associated with endings and transformation, the Elder reminds us we are living in an endless cycle of change. We will honour the Elder and her magic and medicine.
This circle is open to anyone with a curious mind with an open heart and mind. No experience or belief system necessary, all welcome.

Sound Gong Bath
A Sound / Gong Bath is a vibrational healing sensation that helps still the mind and soothe the soul. It can be an unforgettable experience for those who seek deep relaxation, rejuvenation and an acceleration of their inward journey. Time is suspended as you enter a world of vibration, sensation and experiences. Physical injuries may be healed, and old emotional traumas may be released. People may often find resolutions to emotional issues during this time.
This journey gives you the opportunity to explore yourself in a deeper level of consciousness. The healing vibrational sounds helps the physical and emotional states within the body to re-align and repair. This allows your body to find a natural calmness whilst allowing for space for insights and thoughts. You can feel truly, vibrantly alive. Once you’ve had your first Sound Bath you’ll want more.
Sound Therapy is effective in not only achieving a state of relaxation, but it also has a way of moving through energy blockages in the body. The journey has been known to help ease many conditions such as stress, anxiety, high blood pressure, depression, sleep disorders, MS, pain and autism. The sound healing vibrations help to release stress, allowing the whole body to enter into a deep relaxation of harmony and joyfulness.
Everything on Earth is made up from sound vibrations and each person is believed to have their own vibrational footprint. During a sound bath the aim is to help relax your body and mind so that you can experience the sound waves washing over you.
Most of the instruments are played from one place, however, occasionally they may be brought around the room and played over your body.
Please wear loose comfortable clothing and bring a mat, blanket and cushion to be warm and comfortable. Most people lie down during a Sound Bath, whereas some choose to sit in a comfortable chair.
No prior experience, effort or practice is required to participate. All welcome, However, please note sound therapy is not recommended for people with pacemakers or pregnant ladies in their 1st trimester. If you have any illnesses or aliments and are unsure if this experience will be suitable for you, please do not hesitate to contact me.

An empathetic yet encouraging space for anyone looking to tenderly open vocally and explore the natural voice as a personal and collective healing instrument.
Facilitated by Sami, who, following a ten year vocal transformation, is passionate about the portal of the voice for self reflection, natural unity, remembrance and collective expression.
No singing experience or ability is needed to join, just an open mind, and heart to hear with compassionate curiosity.
Sami has trained in sound healing with the voice, with Angela Milbourn, collaborative vocal improvisation and circle song techniques with mentor Ruana Xerri-West, song leadership with Susie Ro Prater; and further song forms and styles with Anna Bariyani (Curawaka), Peia and Mary McLoughlin. She also writes circle songs, and is currently working on collaborative recordings.

Activating Kundalini Through Pranayama & Ceremonial Cacao
Activating Kundalini Through Pranayama & Ceremonial Cacao
A Journey Into the Heart, Breath & Inner Power
Join us for an evening of connection, healing, and self-discovery as we explore the transformative power of conscious breath and ceremonial cacao.
In the busyness of daily life, we rarely pause to truly connect with ourselves. This gathering offers a sacred opportunity to slow down, disconnect from external distractions, and awaken the energy that already exists within.
Why Pranayama?
Pranayama, the ancient yogic science of breath control, has profound effects on the nervous system. Through conscious breathing practices, we can:
• Calm the stress response and regulate the nervous system
• Reduce anxiety and mental overwhelm
• Improve focus, clarity, and emotional resilience
• Increase energy and vitality
• Create balance between body, mind, and spirit
• Prepare the body for deeper meditation and inner awareness
The Magic of Ceremonial Cacao
Known as the “Food of the Gods,” ceremonial cacao has been used for centuries in sacred rituals and heart-opening ceremonies.
Cacao gently supports:
• Emotional healing and self-reflection
• Enhanced feelings of connection and compassion
• Increased creativity and intuition
• A deeper connection to the Heart Chakra — the energetic centre of unconditional love, forgiveness, and acceptance
When combined with conscious breathwork, cacao helps create a beautiful bridge between mind and heart, allowing us to access our inner wisdom and authentic power.
What to Expect:
✨ Ceremonial Cacao
✨ Pranayama (Breathwork)
✨ Gentle Yoga
✨ Sacred Chants & Mantra
✨ Guided Meditation
✨ Community Connection & Energy Exchange
Together we will co-create a supportive space where we can nourish our hearts, awaken our inner energy, step into our power, and support one another’s growth.
Date: Friday 11th July
Time- 5:00pm – 7:00pm
Venue- Elephant Rooms-36 South Street Draycott
Investment £15 *Elephant Room’s concessions available

Sound Gong Bath
Sound Therapy is effective in not only achieving a state of relaxation, but it also has a way of moving through energy blockages in the body. The journey has been known to help ease many conditions such as stress, anxiety, high blood pressure, depression, sleep disorders, MS, pain and autism. The sound healing vibrations help to release stress, allowing the whole body to enter into a deep relaxation of harmony and joyfulness.
Everything on Earth is made up from sound vibrations and each person is believed to have their own vibrational footprint. During a sound bath the aim is to help relax your body and mind so that you can experience the sound waves washing over you.
Most of the instruments are played from one place, however, occasionally they may be brought around the room and played over your body.
Please wear loose comfortable clothing and bring a mat, blanket and cushion to be warm and comfortable. Most people lie down during a Sound Bath, whereas some choose to sit in a comfortable chair.
No prior experience, effort or practice is required to participate. All welcome, However, please note sound therapy is not recommended for people with pacemakers or pregnant ladies in their 1st trimester. If you have any illnesses or aliments and are unsure if this experience will be suitable for you, please do not hesitate to contact me.

A Sound / Gong Bath is a vibrational healing sensation that helps still the mind and soothe the soul. It can be an unforgettable experience for those who seek deep relaxation, rejuvenation and an acceleration of their inward journey. Time is suspended as you enter a world of vibration, sensation and experiences. Physical injuries may be healed, and old emotional traumas may be released. People may often find resolutions to emotional issues during this time.
This journey gives you the opportunity to explore yourself in a deeper level of consciousness. The healing vibrational sounds helps the physical and emotional states within the body to re-align and repair. This allows your body to find a natural calmness whilst allowing for space for insights and thoughts. You can feel truly, vibrantly alive. Once you’ve had your first Sound Bath you’ll want more.
