- **Event Name**: Yoga with Shawn: Brigid's Forge, The Art of Renewal
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 15 Dec, 2025 at 07:30 am – Mon, 15 Dec, 2025 at 08:45 am
- **Event Description**: Imbolc is a Celtic fire festival traditionally celebrated around February 1 that marks the turning point between the darkest days of winter and spring renewal. Its Old Irish name means “in the belly,” a reference to the pregnant ewes and the promise of renewed life to come. Honored at this time is the triple goddess Brigid who presides over the three aspects of healing, poetry, and transformation as well as the three life stages of maiden, mother, crone (and so much more). Brigid’s archetypal energy is strongest as the light returns and the first stirrings of growth begin out of winter’s stillness. 

Echoing the journey from darkness to light, this eight week yoga series centers on mindfulness, self-care and restoration. Through posture, breath, meditation, the dance of movement and stillness and gentle seasonal rituals, we’ll use the darker months of the year to nurture the body, settle the mind, rekindle inner warmth and explore self-comfort as we move toward Imbolc. Each week offers space to move, reflect, and rebuild energy—tapping into natural rhythms and encouraging nourishment as we prepare for spring’s return. 

TENDING THE FLAME ?

Week 1.  Awakening the Light Within — Turning inward to reconnect with inner warmth and awaken subtle vitality in the darkness with The Crone archetype. 

Week 2.  Purification and Release — Alchemizing stagnant energy through movement and energy clearing with Brigid the Healer. 

Week 3.  Restoring Balance — Rebalancing strength and softness, masculine and feminine, light and darkness with Brigid the Poet. 

Week 4.  Cultivating Hope — A heart-centered practice to awaken our inner light, restore faith, and  build compassion for self and others with The Mother archetype. 

Week 5.  Visioning the Future — Setting intentions from stillness and aligning intuition with purpose with Brigid of the Well. 

Week 6.  Gathering Strength — Grounding posture, stabilizing breath, and stoking the inner fire with Brigid of the Forge. 

Week 7.  Embodying Renewal — Reconnecting body and spirit as new energy begins to rise with The Maiden archetype. 

Week 8.  Celebrating New Hope — Honoring Brigid’s transformational flame and healing waters through ritual and blessing. 

This regenerative series is perfect for anyone seeking greater self-compassion and care through the winter season. If the darker months feel heavy or isolating, this space offers warmth, rhythm, and restoration. Whether you’re new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, this journey provides an opportunity to align with the season’s natural wisdom, the body’s need for rest and renewal, and nurture the light growing within.
