The programme follows the Spiral of the Work that Reconnects (more information at the end of this document) and will include:

Nature Immersion | Guided processes in nature and quiet time in the beautiful gardens
Ritual | Steeped in a number of spiritual traditions we will take part in community rituals designed to connect us deeply to ourselves, each other and to the Earth
Mindfulness Practices | Guided meditations and times of silence
Connection | Opportunities and processes that connect you deeply to your heart, and to the hearts of others
Embodiment Practices | Movement that supports us to stay present to what arises within us
Song | Joanna and Rachael will weave in community singing so as to  tune into the healing power of song in bringing us together
Time and Space for Stillness | Moments to be alone in contemplation, or journalling, or just taking in the beautiful tranquil gardens
