Yoga and wellness festival comes to The Alnwick Garden this February
Popular yoga and wellness festival, Earth and Essence, is coming to The Alnwick Garden this February, offering a weekend of movement and mindfulness.
The two-day festival will take place on Saturday, February 7 and Sunday, February 8, bringing together yoga, meditation, holistic wellbeing sessions, and inspiring talks for visitors of all ages and abilities.
Two of the North East’s leading yoga teachers, Debrah Dhugga and Christine Heslop, will be hosting the event.
The programme includes a wide range of yoga and movement practices, from flowing and dynamic classes to gentle, restorative sessions as well as breathwork and sound healing sessions by renowned practitioners Charlie Moult and Craig Eddington.
“Holding our festival at The Alnwick Garden is the perfect environment for grounding ourselves surrounded by the beauty of nature,” Debrah said.
“The Earth and Essence event is truly for everybody of all ages and abilities from complete beginners through to regular yoga practitioners and is the perfect way to set your intentions for the year ahead to promote a healthier, happier ‘you’.”
Alongside the physical programme, Earth and Essence offers a series of wellness talks exploring topics such as mental wellbeing, self-care, resilience and sustainable living.
A central marketplace will also highlight a variety of independent traders, wellness brands and makers.
Tickets are available for single days or the full weekend, and also include access to The Alnwick Garden.
CEO of The Alnwick Garden, Mark Brassell, said: “The Earth and Essence event offers a timely opportunity to pause, reset and reconnect at the start of the year, while supporting wellbeing, mindfulness and community – everything that aligns with our values at The Alnwick Garden Trust.”
