Back A Yardd: Winter Wellbeing Sessions November Edition

Hello community,

As we transition through autumn and into winter, the beautiful thing about this time of the year is that it is a very gracious and direct invitation to stop, rest and recuperate.

As many of our plant and animal friends have gone to hibernate, we too feel like it is time to move more in line with the inner and outer cycles of nature and bring our monthly Back A Yardd offering to you inside where it is cosy and warm ?

This is part one of our winter wellbeing sessions that will take place until February 2025 before spring arrives ?

So that being said, for our November event... please join us for a three hour session at Shai Space in South London, where we will be making two herbal remedies to keep or gift to a loved one, followed by a meditative tea tasting and ending with a relaxing hour long gong and sound bath led by the wonderful Victoria Roze.

? Relaxing & Immune Boosting Herbal Tea Blends

? Who we are ?

Back a Yardd is a South-London based community-focused collective which aims to reconnect people of the Global Majority back to the land.

We believe that our communities deserve to have more knowledge and autonomy over our health and wellbeing.

Through making foraging, herbal medicine making, and meditative practices more accessible, we encourage and help our local London community to re-adopt ancestral knowledge and re-learn indigenous practices. We introduce individuals to the plant foods and medicines that grow readily available and abundantly all around us in the city.

The phrase ‘back a yard’ is a Caribbean term that literally translates to mean “the way things are done back home.”

We want to help our local community to feel companionship with the natural world and more connected to our surroundings.

Back a yardd are anti racist, decolonial, trans-inclusive, queer friendly, inter-faith, culturally appreciative and age inclusive. Whilst we will centre the experiences of people of the Global Majority, it is open to everyone.

I f you have any questions, please feel free to send us an email at [email protected]

We hope to share space with you soon ?
