Samhain marks the end of the harvest and the beginning of the darker half of the year a sacred pause before winter’s descent.

This season invites us to reflect, release, and root deeper into ourselves and the land. Set in a peaceful private woodland, this women’s in nature gathering offers a nourishing and creative space to honour the shifting season together with nature, with intention, and in sisterhood.

What to Expect:
Forest Bathing: Immerse yourself in the healing energies of the forest. We'll take a gentle, mindful walk through the woods, allowing the sights, sounds, and smells of nature to soothe our minds and ground our bodies.

Community Fire Circle: Gather around the warmth of the fire, where we'll share reflections, intentions, and wisdom. The fire serves as a sacred space for transformation and connection, helping us to release what no longer serves and welcome new energy into our lives.

Women's Circle: In this sacred space, we will connect deeply with one another, sharing our thoughts, feelings, and experiences. This is a time to be heard, to support each other, and to honour the divine feminine within us all.

Journaling: Reflect on your journey during this season of change. We'll provide prompts and time for you to explore your thoughts, insights, and intentions in a personal journal.

Creative Expression: Creative mark-making with natural plant-based inks, expressing yourself through the textures and tones of the season.

Botanical Rituals
Gentle plant-based practices using seasonal herbs, scents, and offerings to enhance grounding, reflection, and connection.
Wild Teas and Treats: Enjoy nourishing teas made from wildcrafted herbs, along with delicious, wholesome treats that celebrate the abundance of the earth.

Important Details:
What to wear: Please wear, walking boots, waterproofs, and appropriate layer clothing.
What to bring: you may wish to bring a thermos, of tea, a cup, a pen, a journal, snacks of your choice

We will run the session in all weathers except high winds or extreme cold. If the session is cancelled you will be contacted with as much notice as possible.

This event is intentionally kept small, with spaces limited to 12 women, to ensure that we can fully honour each attendee and create a safe, sacred space for deep connection.

Come, join us fireside, to connect with yourself, our earth, and each other during this powerful time of year. Let us root ourselves in the nourishing embrace of nature and find the inner strength that Samhain calls forth in each of us.

Spaces are limited—reserve your spot now to be part of this transformative experience.

I look forward to seeing you in the sacred space of circle.
