SUMMARY:Midwinter's Day Celebration
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”innerpage-rowgraphic”][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text] \nCelebrate Winter Solstice Immersed In Nature\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”inner-pagetitle”]Give yourself the gift of quality time in nature as you join us around the midwinter campfire\, for a celebration of the Winter Solstice. You will be guided through a range of activities aimed at deepening your nature connection whilst we mark this special moment in the calendar year together. \nExperiencing nature with all our senses is a powerful doorway to practising mindfulness which is proven to improve your health & well-being. Practising bushcraft brings us closer to our ancestors and a very old way of understanding the natural world around us. It also fosters a stronger connection to nature. Fire has a hypnotic quality which can really aid getting into a mindful head space. Lighting fires at the darkest time of the year is also an ancient custom and symbolises creating our positive intentions for the new year. \n“Winter Solstice\, like Summer Solstice\, is a moment of pause between two cycles\, a moment of transition that can be held and savoured\, a doorway\, an opening\, a place on the edge\, when we can stop our busy lives and take a moment to experience this edge between these two great cycles of the year.” Glennie Kindred \nLea and James will guide you through a range of seasonal activities aimed at giving you real techniques which you can use to foster a deeper nature connection in your own time. \nYou will join us around the campfire amoungst the beautiful woodland of Park in the Past in North East Wales for a relaxing session of learning and celebrating in amongst the trees.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] \n\nEnjoy a winter warmer; hot spiced apple cider (non-alcoholic) from our campfire\nAwaken your ‘five animal senses’\nUse traditional tools; knife\, axe and froe\nIdentify native tree species in winter\nCraft your own wild weaving to take home\nUnwind with a tree meditation\nRoast chestnuts on an open fire\nUse traditional firelighting tools; flint & steel\nBuild your own Midwinter campfire; bring light to the dark\nSet your intentions for the new year ahead\nMake herbal teas from wild plants\nDiscover what your Celtic Birth Tree is and what it says about you\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″]		[vc_column_text] \nEvent details\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” el_class=”white-text”]Date: Sun 20th Dec 2026 \nTime: 10:00 am – 2:00 pm \nVenue: Park in the Past \nCost: £37[/vc_column_text]Book now		[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”30227″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”row-graphic-white” css=”.vc_custom_1573054760131{background-image: url(https://woodlandclassroom.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/background-texture.jpg?id=12328) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle”][vc_column_inner width=”2/3″][vc_column_text] \nYour Tutors: James & Lea Kendall\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]James is the Head Bushcraft Instructor at Woodland Classroom\, having worked in environmental education & conservation for over 10 years.
