~ THE WINTER SOLSTICE ~
ALSO KNOWN AS YULE, IS THE CELEBRATION OF THE GODDESS
THE MOON ENERGY
Celebrating rituals and traditions honouring the pagan roots of solstice, the longest night of the year......as the days onward will begin to get lighter with the changing season, we also rejoice in the light of our own inner compass and the light of yoga.
The ancients knew solstice was the longest night of the year and the sun was beginning its long journey back towards the earth. It’s a time of celebration, regeneration, renewal and self reflection.

Yoga is a wonderful compliment to the practice of mindful eating because simply put, practising yoga is the art of listening to yourself.
Discover how preparing your meals and your approach to how you eat , can transform your relationship with your body and food.
Working through the body with yoga connects you with your spirit whilst unravelling the physical, mental and emotional layers.
Willow Farm “ Berry , on the beautiful south coast With 160 acres of lush green farmland and picturesque creek frontage, enjoy the privacy and luxury of escaping to your own country retreat accommodation staying in the beautifully restored farmhouse.
Providing a stunning backdrop for you to get away from it all whilst participating in yoga and other activities on offer , or to create your own time. It’s up to you as everything is optional, do as little or as much as you please- maybe it’s a good opportunity to have some peace & quiet to get to that book you’ve been meaning to read.
Pull on your gumboots and explore the farm: pick apples from the orchard, say hello to the cows, row out onto the dam, skim stones in the creek .
Then at the end of the day, get the fire pit going, set up on the veranda, and watch the sun set golden over the paddocks as the kookaburras surround you with laughter.

Further afield, stunning south coast beaches start at the end of the road.
