A circle to honour our loved ones who have passed
As autumn turns to winter, nature reminds us of the cycle of life and death. Across the world, cultures have their own ways of pausing at this time of year to honour loved ones who have passed.
Join Lidewij for this circle in a safe, held space to remember those that we miss. We begin with a guided meditation to arrive and settle, then build an altar together to honour and celebrate our deceased loved ones. There will be room to share for those that feel like it. Please bring: a photo of someone you’d like to honour, plus a flower or a special object for the altar.
Everyone and everything is welcome here. No experience with yoga required.

ABOUT THE TEACHER
LIDEWIJ SEVERINS 
At a very young age, Lidewij was introduced to yoga and meditation through her mother. After a few years of practicing Iyengar Yoga, she fell in love with the Ashtanga Yoga practice, mainly influenced by her teacher Petri Raïsanen, whom she continues to practice with and assists on a regular basis. To balance the Yang, her Yin practice helps her to find a sense of deep relaxation and openness, both physically and mentally.
Her daily asana and meditation practice is a journey to her true self with her mat as her mirror, helping her to reflect and find peace and stillness within. She teaches with softness, care, and personal attention and hopes to inspire others to take their yoga practices with them off the mat and live a conscious and loving life.
After becoming a mother and, a few months later, losing her father, Lidewij developed an interest in Family Constellations and Systemic work. Her journey into motherhood was the biggest transformation. The home births of her three kinds were truly empowering events, that she wishes for every woman to experience birth in such a way. She therefore trained to become a doula and support parents in their journey of welcoming their babies into this world. She stresses the importance of supporting the new parent and offers postpartum treatments and Rebozo Closing Rituals.
