Welcoming February 2025“The February sunshine steeps your boughs and tints the buds and swells the leaves within.” William C. Bryant.I hope you have gently flowed into 2025 as we move to February, the shortest month of the year and is said to be the last month of winter. The name February comes for the Latin word, februare, meaning “to make pure. The first Wheel of the Year festival of the calendar year is Imbolc which takes place at the beginning of February, the midway point between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox. Not surprisingly, in Britain Imbolc is often associated with snowdrops as they are one of the first flowers to bloom in the spring, and are often seen as a symbol of hope, purity and new beginnings. Like Candlemas, its counterpart in the Christian calendar, it is a festival of light, which celebrates light and the first stirrings of spring. A time to pause, notice and welcome the early signs of Spring, the lengthening daylight and the beauty it brings.SO Much gratitude to everyone who joined January’s regular sessions, two collaborations with Georgina, Yin Yoga & Sound & our new session Reclaim your Power. Plus two beautiful retreats, thank you Chloe, Wild Earth Yoga and Sally Potter – Hypnotherapy & Retreats, lead to a joyful soundful month. To honour everyone who attends and to give something back to our beautiful earth, I started to plant trees, through www.Ecologi.com So thrilled that my ‘SoundForest’ is growing, 148 trees added this January – a total of 5736 now planted x Thank you x. 🎶 Monday Monday 🎶 Relaxing into the month at Modbury Therapy Centre (first Monday monthly) Lunchtime Lie Down has moved to join the other sessions on the first Monday of the month in the beautiful Yoga Barn.
