The Witching Hour

An Online Offering for Lovers of Yoga, Folklore and Fairy Tales every Sunday Evening

Last week my sister came to visit, and there was one particular evening where we found ourselves feeling tired and in need of a reset. We put the kettle on, lit the fire, rolled out the yoga mats and relaxed into some yin postures together.

We chuckled as we bickered about how long to set the timer for each posture. She’s a 10 minute kind of girl, and I’m a 3-5. Gus, of course, joined us snoring from his bed.

As we slowly eased into each new posture, I was reminded of how nourishing it feels to push pause and slow down - even if just for an hour. I talk about it all the time, and I know it in my bones, but that’s not enough, you have to physically do it.

And so, The Witching Hour was born

Each Sunday evening, we’ll gather for an hour of yin and restorative yoga whilst listening to age old tales of cultural wisdom from fairytales and folklore.

Light a candle, brew a mug of herbal tea and invite your body to relax in long-held, supported poses. Let your mind to soften and wander as you listen to stories exploring themes of belonging, authenticity, intuition as guidance, and finding your inner wild woman.

Each session will end with a journaling prompt for you to answer in your own time.

This is a place to:

  • Rest your body deeply

  • Soothe and nourish your nervous system

  • Reconnect with ancient stories and the quiet wisdom they carry

  • Reflect gently on what these tales can teach us about being human

  • Prepare yourself calmly and intentionally for the week ahead


The power of story

Stories have always been a way humans make sense of life. Long before screens and scrolling, we learned through myth, fairytale, and spoken word. Listening to stories read aloud soothes the nervous system - it’s a reminder of being held and cared for, just like in childhood.

We’ll begin our journey with stories from Women Who Run With the Wolves, by Clarissa Pinkola Estés and If Women Rose Rooted by Sharon Blackie. Both Clarissa Pinkola Estés and Sharon Blackie are leading voices in the study of feminine wisdom, myth, and storytelling. Their work illuminates the inner wild woman, resilience, rootedness, and self‑knowledge.
