Spring is Here. Are You Ready to Meet It?
Here on Skye, spring feels like a welcome friend – the birds sing again and there’s a lightness in the air that lifts everything with it.
The threshold to Spring allows us pause to notice where we are and what we want to grow. What seeds are you planting this year? What are you ready to invite in?
An Invitation: Spring Awakening on the Isle of Skye
This March, we’re gathering to do exactly that – to unfurl from winter with intention, community, and practice.
Spring Awakening is a two-day immersive event held at the beautiful Skye Candles venue in Portree, Isle of Skye, on Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th March. Each day offers its own journey, and you’re welcome to join for one or both.
Saturday 14th March | 9.30 – 4.45
The Experience of Effortless Meditation
If the idea of “clearing your mind” already has your thoughts racing — you’re in exactly the right place. This day is an introduction to an effortless meditation practice that doesn’t ask you to silence your thoughts. Instead, it works with them.
Led by Jo (Rev Jo Royle), an Interfaith Minister, Celebrant, and Meditation Teacher with over 16 years of practice and 500+ people taught, this full-day workshop will help you:
- Bring your body into balance, improve immunity and sleep, and release tension
- Let go of stress and improve focus and concentration
- Find greater peace, resilience, and calm
- Feel more connected, creative, and courageous
Whether you’re entirely new to meditation or seeking a regular, sustainable practice, this day offers something genuinely accessible and transformative.
Sunday 15th March | 9.00 – 4.30
