" I love Autumn and Winter more. Something opens up in me then - something soft and deep and glowing - which is far too shy to expose itself to the inexhaustible light of summer "
From The Enchanted Life by Sharon Blackie
You may not prefer the fall and winter but yet, if we did not experience the fullness of all seasons ....we would miss a very important time of moving inward, taking rest and nourishing our souls from all the outward motion towards the inward motion.
We have experienced the heavy rains which really brought devastation to parts of the island but also beautiful, crisp mornings with sunfilled days. The leaves are turning, the sea is getting cooler and right now we have a stunning full moon casting it's golden light over the mountains and sea. We are also living in times when spiritual connection is vital to ground us, heal us and connect us back to the innate wisdom that lies within us all.
We are loving having all of our dear yogis back from summer and classes and weekends are full of loving souls and teachers filling our shalas both here and in Portals .
This month of November we are offering a few very special events that we hope that you can and would like to join .
