🌟 Embrace the turning of the year with Winter Solstice: Breath of Light – Mantra Meditation 108 OM at The Isbourne with Sunny Warbout - a powerful session of breath, chant and stillness.

📅 Saturday 20 Dec 2025 | 13:00 – 15:00

🌀 What you’ll experience:

A “Breath of Light” ceremony to honour the season of inner stillness, guided by Sunny Warbout.

Chanting the mantra “OM” 108 times, designed to activate subtle energy channels, clear blockages and open the heart to its full potential.

A gentle guided meditation to reflect on the returning light, reconnect with nature’s rhythm and invite peace in this quiet, deep-time moment.

A welcoming space for all levels — whether sitting in a chair or on a mat, beginners or advanced practitioners are included.

✅ Why you should attend:

This is a chance to deliberately step out of the busy lead-up to the holidays and anchor into a slower, more meaningful rhythm.

The Winter Solstice marks the longest night and the turning toward longer days — making this moment symbolic for renewal, rest and reconnection.

You’ll leave with a deeper sense of stillness, clarity and soft glowing energy — a beautiful way to move into the season ahead.

🎒 What to bring & how to prepare:

Arrive a few minutes early so you settle in and choose either a chair or mat.

Bring a water bottle, wear comfortable layered clothing (you may be quietly still for part of the session).

Come with an open heart and willingness to explore inner space rather than external doing.

Booking is required — this special event is limited, so secure your spot soon. https://isbourne.org/events/winter-solstice-breath-of-light-mantra-meditation-108-om

🎄 Facilitated by Corinne Loveridge‑Smith in this unique holiday sound-bath experience guiding you into calm & wonder.

🌌 What to expect:

A beautifully crafted sound-bath experience that invites you to pause the seasonal rush, surrender into deep relaxation and reconnect with the magic of the moment.

Imagine being wrapped in blankets, lying back, listening to rich sound-waves that gently wash over you, an immersive journey of calm and restoration.

A festive vibe: a sleigh of sound, blankets, mats, eye-masks provided—plus you’re encouraged to wear your Christmas jumper/shirt/hat for fun.

🎁 Why this is the perfect festive treat:

It’s more than a class—it’s a sensory escape from the hustle of holiday prep into truly restful, mindful space.

Ideal if you’re feeling a bit stressed, tired, or simply craving a moment of calm in December.

https://isbourne.org/events/all-aboard-the-sound-bath-christmas-express

🧘 What to bring & how to prepare:

Arrive a little early so you can settle in and get comfortable.

Bring a water bottle; everything else (mat, blanket, eye-mask) is provided according to the listing.
