Stoke the Embers – Winter Solstice Day Retreat
As the Celtic wheel turns again, we arrive at Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year. Join Root Bound and Molly Jayne Yoga at West Coast Wellness, Loch Fyne, for a day of deep rest, reconnection, and seasonal ritual.
A retreat is an opportunity to withdraw from the demands of daily life, a chance to step back, slow down, and create space for yourself. In the lead-up to the festive season, this day invites you to reconnect with the embers within: the warmth, resilience, and inner light that sustain us through the darker months.
Inspired by Scottish traditions of gathering around the hearth in winter, "Stoke the Embers" is a reminder that this season is not about endings, but about tending to what matters most. Together, we'll honour the turning of the year through practices that nourish body, mind, and spirit, helping you find light not by searching outside yourself, but by gently stoking the embers already burning within.
Your day includes:
- Earth mandala yoga and pranayama (breathwork)
- Woodland and lochside walk
- Restorative sauna session
- Seasonal, locally sourced meal by Root Bound
- Guided meditation and sunset yin yog
- a overlooking Loch Fyne
- Opening and closing circles
Everything is optional, allowing you to rest, reflect, and move through the day at your own pace.

Held in the beautiful and rarely accessible surroundings of West Coast Wellness, a family-run farm on Loch Fyne, this immersive retreat offers a chance to step away from festive pressures, embrace the stillness of winter, and carry a sense of warmth and connection into the season ahead.
