Tender Being with Harriet Hamid-CollettCommunity Membership & Podcast UpdateIt’s been beautiful to start building up our small community here, and it’s also time for a change of home (and a new name).

Tender Being with Harriet Hamid-CollettEpisode 9: Winter Solstice 2024As I approached planning both this year’s live Winter Solstice session, as well as the prompts for this podcast, I decided to change things up a little. Previously I have focused on the concept of gratitude and tying this into the ‘feast of yule’ - feasting on our gratitude and letting it nourish us! But this year I felt much more drawn to a different invitation from this festival. The invitation of the darkness and stillness to acknowledge and accept ourselves just as we are. To stop striving for change and to try to...

Content note: mention of disordered breathing, pregnancy and labourI share some personal experiences as well as my perspective as a teacher, sharing that the breath can be a brilliant ‘anchor’ but is also not necessarily ‘neutral’ or appropriate for all people in all circumstances. I explore some different ways the breath is understood and used in mindfulness and meditation practices, as well as sharing two of my favourite go to breath-based practices. Below are the link...
