Immerse yourself in nature this Summer and join Maria Dineen and myself for a 2.5 hour yoga and qigong workshop in our own private outdoor retreat area nestled within 60 acres of woodland and lakes at Buzzards Valley Vineyard, Drayton Bassett, near Tamworth.

The theme for this woodland workshop is ‘Tending the Heart Fire’. We’ll begin our time together with a meditation practice encouraging us to think about how we might nourish our own heart. We’ll then enjoy a playful qigong practice aimed at cultivating a deeper sense of awareness of and appreciation for the natural world around us, reminding us that we are part of nature and not something separate from it.

We’ll take a mid morning break for a natter over a drink and snacks.

And Denise will then guide you through a mindful yoga practice aimed at helping you to cultivate a greater sense of harmony in body, mind and spirit.

Afterwards you’re free to explore the lovely nature trail at Buzzards Valley; have a bite of lunch at the on-site bistro; or taste some wine from the vineyard and stock up on goodies at the artisan shop.

All you need to bring with you is a yoga mat and a warm blanket.
