Autumn Equinox Yin, Cacao & Sound Therapy Workshop
This event has now ended
About this workshop
The autumn equinox marks the point when day and night are held in near-equal balance. It is a natural moment to slow down after summer, notice what has shifted and make space for the season ahead.
Heather will guide you through a quiet Yin yoga practice using long, supported poses to release effort and encourage stillness. Ceremonial cacao offers a warm shared pause before you settle into an immersive sound meditation with crystal bowls and other resonant instruments.
The afternoon is designed to feel restorative rather than demanding. You can leave feeling deeply relaxed, grounded and more prepared for the transition into the colder months.
Meet Heather
Heather Hepburn leads this workshop. Her teaching brings together mindful movement, meditation and sound, with an emphasis on making rest feel accessible rather than performative.
She offers clear options throughout the Yin practice and guides the sound meditation so that first-time and returning participants can feel equally at ease.
What you’ll experience
If time allows, arrive a little early and settle into our welcoming reception area with a complimentary herbal tea before the workshop begins.
We provide yoga equipment and create a calm, supportive space. Wear comfortable layers, as body temperature can drop during longer periods of rest, and arrive around ten minutes early so you can settle without rushing.
The session combines gentle floor-based movement, a small serving of ceremonial cacao and an extended sound meditation. Please contact us before booking if you are pregnant, have a medical concern or are unsure whether cacao is suitable for you.
