Welcome to 2023!
We welcome you back to our centre, after the break. We encourage you to come back mindfully. It is so normal for us to hit the ground running in January, stop for a Summer break and then on until Xmas, where inevitably many people crash!
Unlike the birds, flowers and trees, we are forever on! But let the natural year guide you. January is a very good to place to start!
If you look outside, you will find there is very little activity. Lots of plants and animals tucked away, conserving energy. It is a time for laying foundations for the year ahead, from a place of rest and recuperation.
So continue to take opportunities for calm and reflection wherever you can find them.
Close your eyes, breathe deeply, enjoy the peace and quiet. Cook stews, sleep more, dream and make plans, lay the foundations for your year to come. The light will come soon enough, don’t fight the darkness!
As ever, the details are below and in the calendar – please check it!
With best wishes from Sharon and all the teachers and therapists at Dorchester Yoga and Therapy Centre
