The Ritual #3 — a monthly wellbeing gathering November Edition
About this Event
The Ritual is a monthly wellbeing gathering hosted by Emma at TOPP, Renae. Hosted at the beginning of each month, The Ritual is an invitation to reconnect and ground yourself, set intentions for the month ahead and mark the changing seasons together. Expect thoughtful movement, moments of stillness and time to reflect, all held within a warm, welcoming community.
In November, as the nights start drawing in, we might naturally find ourselves leaning towards slower pace, around us nature is preparing for winter - trees are shedding their leaves, birds are migrating, but society pressures us to continue at the same pace all year round. So in Novembers edition of the ritual, we will slow down and notice how we're feeling and what we need, and explore how we can honour our bodies needs as we enter the darker months.
So that is the purpose of The Ritual. A monthly gathering to act as a self-check in at the beginning of each month. We will check in with ourselves, but also notice and celebrate the changing of the seasons around us. Each event will begin with some grounding movement, a short meditation and some journalling. And will end with some time to connect with each other.
The Ritual #3:
Our second edition of The Ritual will be on 14th November,
What to expect:
We will begin the session with some grounding exercises - a seasonal meditation, some gentle movement and seasonal journalling to ground ourselves in our bodies and check in with our thoughts and feelings.
We will then welcome local sound facilitator Ashley who will guide us through a 45 minute sound journey. Using crystal and Tibetan singing bowls, percussion and chimes, Ashley creates an immersive soundscape to invite you to soften into the body, quieten the mind and move away from the noise of the outside world.
We’re surrounded by sound all the time… traffic, conversations, notifications, music, screens, the hum of everyday life. In a world that rarely allows us to be quiet, sound can offer another way to pause, listen and reconnect with ourselves.
After the sound journey there will time to relax, chat, journal and have a herbal tea.
Come alone or bring a friend. Stay curious, stay present, and leave feeling a little more grounded than when you arrived.
All are welcome, no experience necessary, just come with a curiosity to connect with yourself and an open mind.
