The Sacred Darkness, Interior Light And Spiritual Depth Of Winter

This mini-course is for everyone who would like to discover new ways to delight and pleasurably rest in the sacred darkness of Winter, absorb its wisdom, and honor the deep spiritual experiences it can bring. It also suggests ways to find relief from the stresses of the driven approach we often feel forced to take part in, and instead come into gentle harmony with Nature and the Earth. The first lesson invites you to reframe any negativity you feel about darkness. It includes a meditation in which you are invited to lean into darkness and find depth there. Once you are on friendly terms with darkness we move to lesson two which begins with a reflection on the third eye centre and its relationship with the pineal gland. The meditation invites you to energize your third eye and find interior light. In the third lesson, we visit and experience Yoga Nidra which, of anything we might do during the Winter months, is probably the practice that can most support and sustain us. *At the end of lessons two and three you are signposted to tracks and courses that will support and enhance what you have learned. Poem All the depth there is darkness, all the colors born in the dark soul of the night. The warmth we find at the heart of kindness, the gifts we offer from our Tree of Life and love itself, the life of life the ground.
