Samhain Yoga & Reiki Retreat: Embrace the Seasonal Shift
Teacher: Frances Rees of Daioni Yoga
Date: Friday 31st October – Sunday 2nd November 2025
Join us for a transformative weekend retreat, where the energy of Samhain guides us into deep introspection and renewal. Samhain, the ancient Celtic festival marking the end of harvest and the beginning of winter, is a powerful time for releasing what no longer serves us and embracing the mysteries of the season. Through restorative & yoga Nidra practices, energy healing with Gendai Reiki, and sacred rituals including cocoa ceremony, we’ll align with the natural flow of the earth’s cycles, honouring the shift in energy as we prepare for the colder months ahead. Let the peacefulness of this retreat provide space for you to reconnect with yourself, release emotional blockages, and invite clarity and healing. This retreat offers a space for rejuvenation, self-reflection, and connection with like-minded souls. Accompanied by a delicious vegan menu to nourish the soul.
Alex’s Anahata Yoga: 3 Day Autumn Retreat
Teacher: Alex Mitchell
Date: Friday 17th – Monday 20th October 2025
Emma and I hold two retreats a year to reflect and set intention. Join us as we welcome the tamasic energy of Autumn. The change of seasons naturally brings with it a change to the pace of life, a change to the energy within the body, a change to our mindsets, a turning inwards, a need for recalibration. We will be exploring and welcoming this shift in energy throughout the weekend.
I am blessed to teach Anahata Yoga here by the sea here in Moylegrove, Pembrokeshire. Anahata yoga is a flowing Hatha practice from Assam in the North of India. Also known as The Dance of Shiva and Shakti the intention is to encourage Shakti, the moon, to rise up to the embrace of Shiva, the sun. The metaphor of a lovers’ dance invokes the idea of a creative interplay between conscious awareness and divine energy. It reminds us to take a joyous, graceful, playful approach to achieving the state of union that is the ultimate goal of yoga.
Over the weekend we will be working with Anahata Asana Flows including: The 5 Element Form, a morning practice; Shiva’s Dance of Love, a flowing to stillness practice; The Dance of Shiva and Shakti, a balancing practice; The Dance of the 3 Warriors, an energising practice. We will be working with Anahata Meditations including The Beggars Bowl, The Akasha Meditation and my favourite, The Anahata meditation. We will be working with Pranayama, breath, to enhance our experience of all of the above, our Asana practice, our Meditation practice and to feel into Prana. We will be treated to one of Ash’s awesome sound baths. If you’ve never enjoyed a sound bath they are special on many levels… a celebration of the vibrational energy and healing power of sound.
I’ll be teaching a Restorative Class: Searching for Freedom which is the only class not from the Anahata tradition. This is a class I’ve been teaching for a number of years now on special occasions here at Cwm Connell when I’m surrounded by props. It’s one of my favourites and I find it particularly moving, powerful and life enhancing.
All teaching will be inclusive and appropriate for all and all of the activities and classes are entirely optional, you may prefer at any point to chill out in the hot tub and sauna or in the paddock, go on a mindful nature walk or take some time for meditation.
The weekend will be fully catered with Breakfast, snacks, lunch and dinner with delicious vegan food from our lovely retreat chef Siva from Sri Lanka – it’s going to be special.
