Celtic Wheel Yoga

Samhain Yoga & Ceremony

Embracing the Dark

Date: Sunday 9 November 2025

Time: 10:00-13:30

Fee: £53

Venue: Blackheath Complementary Health Centre SE3 7DH.

We have now entered the darkest part of the darkest part of the year. The time of the ancient Mother Goddess, the Crone, the Cailleach. Samhain.

A time of the Void, of not knowing.

It heralds the beginning of the Wheel’s turning. All life begins in the dark

We often try to avoid staying with the darkness, uncertainty, flux.

Yet, by yielding to and accepting this time in Nature, and indeed, within ourselves, can be deeply rewarding and transformative. We allow a vulnerability to look within and let go, to honour our ancestors.

Our yoga practice will be a blend of slow flow, melding into Yin and restorative practices. There will be some steadying pranayama and an extending Yoga Nidra. After refreshments we continue with guidance in a hand massage routine. And finally, a simple ceremony to honour the festival of Samhain.

All yoga equipment and refreshments provided. Booking is essential: info@peacefulpractice.co.uk 

Buses to Blackheath Complementary Health Centre: 286,386,422,335,202, 54, 53, 108. Nearest tube: North Greenwich. Overground: Westcombe Park

Celtic Wheel Yoga

“I have attended Bernadette’s Celtic Wheel yoga sessions, where I have learnt that we are all connected to nature and the universe. I have also learnt that if we are able to ‘listen’ and ‘live’ in harmony with the changing seasons, we will feel more balanced within the ‘rhythm of life’.

I have found these sessions to be physically, emotionally, and spiritually nourishing and enlightening. I have also found Bernadette to be a very professional, Inspirational, and gifted practitioner. I would highly recommend attending her Celtic Wheel Yoga sessions, especially if you would like to learn more about how to live as nature intended and surrender to the ‘flow of life.’ ”

W.S.

Celtic Wheel Yoga

“I regularly work with Bernadette and have taken part in celtic wheel celebration sessions in Greenwich Park. Bernadette is incredibly knowledgeable and very sympathetic to adapting yoga practice for existing conditions and limitations, which I really appreciate. After the sessions, I feel strengthened, more grounded and ready to face the rest of my week.”

Reiki

Reiki treatments can help with the reduction of stress, anxiety and tension, which, in turn, can promote improvement of, for example, menstrual health; headaches; muscular tension; sleep disturbance, digestion, chakra balancing.

Reiki treatment

“When I first had Reiki with Bernadette, I couldn’t believe the comfort and relief it brought me. I deeply value the regular support I have from her. She has a gift to remove pain and bring peace. I cannot thank her enough for the help she has given me.”

M.H.

Massage & Reiki treatment

“Since I have been receiving treatments from Bernadette ,which have included both massages and Reiki healing sessions, I feel my overall health and wellbeing has greatly improved. For example, my neck and knees, especially, feel less restricted which has in turn eased the pain enormously therefore, enabling more movement and freedom in these areas.

I have always found Bernadette to be a caring, professional, knowledgeable and a client-centred practitioner. Bernadette has deep insight and understanding of an individual’s needs. For example, after a short discussion between us, I often feel that Bernadette is more aware of where my body needs healing and which treatment/treatments to have, better than myself.  Bernadette definitely has “healing hands.” I always come away from my sessions with her feeling renewed, re-energised and supported.

If you are looking to have treatments such as a massage or Reiki, even as a first timer, I would highly recommend Bernadette.”

B.M.

Reiki treatment

Well Woman yoga class

“I’ve been coming to Bernadette for yoga for many years. She is absolutely amazing. She makes a magic mixture of energy techniques, mindfulness, relaxation, etc, etc all weaved in a yoga class. Her classes include interesting info about health and care of our bodies and soul. It is an experience every person interested in yoga should have.”

Well Woman ZOOM yoga class

“I wanted to get back to a yoga class that would be gentle on my knees and strengthening for my prolapsed bladder.The classes are refreshingly surprising every week with a mix of mudras, lovely readings and variety of props to enable participation and my expectations have been definitely exceeded.”

C.S.

Well Woman yoga class

“Bernadette’s yoga classes have been a truly grounding and uplifting experience. Each session feels thoughtfully crafted to meet you exactly where you are physically, mentally, and emotionally. Whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned practitioner Bernadette has a way of making you feel seen, supported, and gently challenged. She creates such a calm, supportive space that makes every session feel like a reset for both body and mind. What I appreciate most is her ability to weave mindfulness, breath, and philosophy seamlessly into every practice. After each class I feel more connected, strong, and present. If you are looking for a yoga teacher who will genuinely invest in your growth and well-being, I can’t recommend Bernadette highly enough!”

Bush Flower Essences

Australian Bush Flower Essences are catalysts that can help with self healing, by helping people to work through and resolve a vast range of negative emotional states and imbalances and to develop intuitive awareness. The rationale behind their use for healing is based on the belief that when emotional balance is restored, true healing takes place; that much physical illness is the end result of emotional imbalance.
