The Art of Wintering – A Half-day Retreat with Echo Elliott & Oceana Mariani

Rather than resisting the quieter seasons of life, this immersive workshop offers an invitation to embrace them with compassion and care. Together we’ll reflect on the wisdom of winter by honouring periods of rest and dormancy, conserving our energy, and finding sanctuary within ourselves.
Beginning with mindful somatic movement, we’ll tune into the body before settling into longer-held yin postures, supported by hands-on assists designed to encourage release. The practice will conclude with a restorative sound bath, creating space for stillness, integration, and deep rest.
Stay a little while after the workshop to unwind and connect over a cup of tea, with
the option to enjoy the sauna and cold plunge, leaving you feeling embodied,
energised and deeply connected as you step into a busy social season.
