The Quickening 🌱
is a 28 day journey, shared through
a WhatsApp container.
Every second day, you’ll receive a morning
and an evening invitation that takes
just a few minutes a day to explore,
and is easy to integrate into ordinary life.
The pacing is slow and intentional,
offering space rather than pressure,
so the practices don’t become
another 'thing to keep up with'.
Through short written prompts for reflection, voice notes, videos of embodiment practices,
and more, you’ll be guided to reconnect
with yourself, with nature and
with the living rhythms of the land.
Practices may include journal prompts,
nature connection skills, meditation,
somatic and movement work,
herbal medicine insights, and
simple nourishment suggestions.
There’s no right or wrong way to engage.
You’re invited to meet yourself exactly
where you are, allowing gentle daily practices to support a natural stirring,
and a sense of sprouting with the spring.

As we move out of deep winter and into the first promise of lighter days, something begins to stir.
Beneath the cold ground, seeds are gathering energy.
Trees are preparing their first movements toward spring.
The land is readying itself.
The Quickening is a 28 day supported practice designed to help you reconnect with this moment of transition: the returning of the light, and the steady build of energy that comes before outward growth.
This is an ideal time to:
🌱 Nourish the seeds of new intentions, ideas, and ways of being
🌱 Prepare your body, nervous system, and inner landscape for brighter days ahead
Across the 28 days, we will be working with:
🌱 Nature connection practices rooted in seasonal awareness
🌱 Somatic and physical exercises to support energy, resilience, and grounding
🌱 Inner wilderness wanderings and guided reflections
🌱 Storytelling and wisdom drawn from the land and the turning year
🌱 We won't be forcing change, but the invitation is to listen and prepare, while aligning to what the natural world is doing now.
Join Sarah and Sam for this shared exploration.
