What’s On

with Dr Sue Peat and Douglas Davidson

Biodynamics is an organic method of cultivation arising out of Rudolf Steiner’s Spiritual research. It was his response to questions from farmers who were unhappy with ‘chemical’ agriculture. Biodynamics works with the rhythms of the movements of the Sun, Moon, planets and stars, to which the plants respond. The workshop will cover the background of the biodynamic planting calendar and using the biodynamic preparations. It’s autumn so we will focus on sharing tips for harvesting, composting and preparing your garden for winter.  For the last hour, we’ll stir the horn manure preparation (known as 500), so bring an empty screw top bottle if you would like to take some home.  A 500ml bottle is enough for an average garden. The workshop is suitable for those new to biodynamics and for anyone who would like to give their garden, window boxes or house plants an autumn treat!  

Sue and Douglas are enthusiastic gardeners with lots of practical experience in biodynamic gardening.  

All are welcome, no need to book.

The Labyrinth: A Cosmic Dance on Earth

with Aya Husni Bey

We will work with Form Drawing from Kutzli’s Creative Form Drawing Workbook 2, and focus on the Labyrinth. To journey through the Labyrinth we tread a path towards our inner world, and advance back out to the external environment transformed by our experience. We will explore the labyrinth in a variety of ways through drawing, movement and in clay. The clay process will assist us in letting go and trusting that the form is inherent within us, and as above, so below; we initiate the cosmic dance on the earth.

In this one day workshop we will be exploring Shame, the unresolved aspect of ourselves, our Shadow.  

Working with pastels and watercolour, we will create a cradle of courage, forgiveness, kindness, trust and hope to enable the possibility of bringing shame compassionately into the light and be given a voice.  As you work with your shame you give the wound the air it needs to heal and then it becomes a scar - you can revisit it but the power and pain has gone. 

No art experience necessary.

£95 per person and £15 for art materials

Mandala: In Light of Self

with Aya Husni Bey

We will be approaching the Winter Solstice which is a &me when we are called to turn within and connect to our inner light. During these sessions we will work on creating a mandala. The Mandala begins with a centre, then grows and expands from the centre. Concurrently the layers of expansion in relation to the centre also contract, and hold the centre. The effect unveils the Self radiating outwardly, illuminating and secure.
