RITUALS OF REMEMBERING: Autumn Equinox

We are delighted to bring back another Rituals of Remembering gathering for Autumn equinox this September.

​A full day of yoga, nature connection, sauna, ritual, story telling and rest. For anyone who is feeling the need to come together with like-minded souls, surrounded by trees, bird song and spend a day honouring the changing season.

Rituals of Remembering is about reminding ourselves that we are part of the natural world and its cycles. The Autumn Equinox has long been celebrated as a time to gather around and celebrate the balance between day and night. We will eat delicious food, enjoy community gathering, move our bodies and participate in ritual as a way of coming back to our rooted human experience.
​
Places are LIMITED, so book early to avoid disappointment. 

Time and Date: 9.30am-6pm, Saturday 26th September 2026.
Prices: £90 (two concession spaces available at £70, plus a pay it forward option (£110) so someone on a lower income can attend)
Location: Fire & Ice, Westbury Wildlife Park, Westbury on Trym, Bristol

Who is it for?
People looking to celebrate the equinox with a small intimate group, connect with nature, sweat it out in the sauna, enjoy embodied movement, and storytelling, You can be a total novice at yoga or someone who’s practiced for years as options will always be given to suit different bodies. The event will be a mixture of indoors and outdoors, so you need to be comfortable with the weather that Bristol can throw at us. Yoga sessions will take place indoors.

What to expect
We will celebrate the balance of sun and moon moving from an energising morning practice into calming rest at the end of the day. Starting with a dynamic yoga practice with Carrie, where you can expect to warm the body through movement and calm the mind with a focus on the breath. Options and variations are given to suit different bodies and energies. This will be followed with embodied enquiry and meditation as we head outdoors to spend time in the woods in silence. We break our silence and enjoy our time as a community as we come together for delicious, seasonal food cooked by amazing chef Chelsea Dow from the Nettle Kitchen. After lunch, we will head to the wood fired sauna at Fire & Ice, surrounded by beautiful trees and next to a wild swimming pool and ice baths. Once we've dried off, we shall spend the later afternoon enjoying our Equinox ritual in the woods (or indoors if the weather turns on us) before heading into the yoga shala again for our Yin Yoga and Nidra with Ellie. This truly restful and deeply nourishing yoga will leave you feeling calm and grounded into the shifting seasonal energy as we head towards Autumn. We will close with a shared creative practice and reflections before saying our goodbyes.

PARTNER YOGA
@YOGASARA

3.30-6pm
24th October 2026
Yogasara, Picton Street Bristol

For singles, friends, strangers, lovers… (ie everyone!)

Partner yoga uses many of the same principles of a regular yoga class, but the poses are practiced in connection between two (or more) people.

In this workshop we will play, make shapes and connect as we guide each other supportively into poses. We will explore moving in tune with each other people, sometimes non verbally, to create connection in community and further ground ourselves in our yoga practice.

Come along if you fancy trying partner yoga in a friendly and supportive environment. Whether you turn up by yourself, with a partner, or a few friends, give it a go and just have some fun moving as a collective.

All bodies welcome. Beginners welcome.
