Over dit evenement
On the 22nd of december, Barry and Sid would love to spend a day full of silence, reflection and singing with you. This event takes plays around the winter solstice, the point in time in which the darkness reaches it's peak, making us still and inviting us to turn inward.
This takes us to our intention for the day, which is:
to be silent,
to reflect,
to let our inner world express itself through music,
to connect (to ourselves, nature and each other)
A big spacious and comfy yurt will be our base for this beautiful day of reflection.
So after we have settled down and have arrived in the present moment, we will go on a silent nature walk in the nearby forest. We will create space for reflection by inviting you to contemplate.
We invite you to zoom out of daily life and to observe where you are. What has happened? What did you learn? Where does life want to take you?
From this silence and inner space we will flow into a singing circle. Connecting to each other only through our singing voices (and who know maybe through dance as well?)
Most probably, by this time, our hearts have opened and we'll do some connective exercises to truly connect and see ourselves and each other. Gradually moving more outward from this place of inner connection.
This connection will move us into a sharing of reflections and a delicious soup after which there is still time to chat and jam about what the day has brought you.
