There is no way of knowing if, when, or under what circumstances you may need to have a community plan, but, having a plan will make you feel confident you’ve done everything you can if an emergency occurs.

A warm welcome to the Imbolc Yoga Nidra Day RetreatImbolc is about the stirring of new life in the earth and the first intimations of spring. We'll take the theme of the fertile darkness. February 1st is St Brigid's day, the Celtic-Christian festival and this is a strongly female time. 'Imbolc' has etymology of budding, cleansing, milk and 'in the belly'. What is it gestating in you, waiting to see the light of spring? Imbolc is the Celtic cross quarter festival between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. It's a time when we can be close to Spirit and subtle energies, perfect for tuning in with the practice of yoga nidra. It's a potent moment of the year with Candlemass too; in the church festival candles symbolise Christ, light of the world, so we'll use candles to bless ourselves with all that is positive, bringing hope and the knowledge we are loved. With gentle yoga, yoga nidra, yummy vegan food, nature connection, the making of Brigid's crosses and candle lighting, and a workshop to vision your next move, this will be a full, grounding and light-filled day. NOTE this day can be taken as part of a 2 night retreat, or simple overnight B&B  Yoga in tranquil DevonThe peace of rural mid Devon at this change of the season is the setting for relaxing and letting go so that new insight and inspiration flow. As well as yoga practices we'll be imbibing nature's autumn-into-winter feel. Mixed ability yogaThis is a retreat for anyone, including those new to yoga. In this day retreat being 'able' is more about the willingness to go within and use the breath than trained physical strength or flexibility. More experienced practitioners will have a chance to explore nidra more deeply. Yogic dietA yogic diet uplifts and gives energy. We eat fresh, wholesome, seasonal, delicious vegan food made with mainly local organic veg and organic ingredients. Recipes for prana and read more about the veganyogi diet.

Delicious food. Welcoming, accepting and friendly! A very safe and comfortable environment. The space feels uncluttered so allows you and your mind to be that as well. Very welcoming. Viveka Gardens has an aura about it so that when you enter through the door, it feels different and you can leave everything else outside. Fiona opened a door into an interesting way of thinking about and practicing yoga nidra and how it can benefit you in ways I hadn’t considered. It was a fascinating day which has encouraged me to think about so my issues in a different way. The setting is beautiful and incredibly relaxing. Don’t come here on a diet either as the food is gorgeous! A thoroughly enjoyable yoga nidra day. Fiona created a welcoming and safe space to explore our sankalpa. A lovely yoga studio and delicious food. We created a beautiful mandala using leaves and fruit and flowers. It was a real treat.
