Yew Half Day Retreat | The Sussex Country Yurt, RH12 3SQ

 Saturday 16th November | 13:30 to 17:30 | The Sussex Country Yurt

Join SAS founder Ellie Green (Botanical Artist and Teacher ) and Sally (Holistic Health & Wellness Coach Body Phonics) to dive into the magic and the medicine of the Yew tree.

This darker time of the year, when the veil is said to be at it’s thinnest, is a beautiful time to light a fire, gather in circle and connect to the support of both our ancestors and our loved ones in spirit as the year nears its end.

The Yew tree is a highly sacred tree that offers us the medicine of death / endings, transformation and rebirth….

We’ll work with the energy of the Yew tree in a multitude of ways as we hold a safe space for you to fully surrender and releasing any heavier energies that have been weighing you down, anything you are ready to offer up or let all the way go…


Cleanse & Release Ritual | The Sussex Country Yurt

Wednesday 27th November 2024 | 19:00 to 21:30 | The Sussex Country Yurt, RH12 3SQ

Join Ellie Green and Camilla Hamblin for an evening of clearing and cleansing your energetic field with the ancient practise of feathers, rattle, smoke and sound.

This evening together will be steeped in ritual and witchery. Inviting you to open your heart and mind to receive a purification of your energy body and chakra systems. We will begin the ritual with a sharing circle to establish the areas that you feel you need healing and clearing. 

You will then be invited to sit with either Camilla or Ellie to receive an energetic cleanse where they will work with smudging, herbs, feather and rattle to open your energy points for healing. They will also share any guidance that they receive as they are working with you.

After your clearing there will be time to journal, to pull oracle cards and to rest before we close the space working with the drum to ground you and close the ritual - calling you back to your body and soul.
