A Seasonal Floral Design + Restorative Yoga Retreat
Saturday, September 19, 10:00 AM–2:00 PM Fieldside Yoga + Retreats 1407 Elm Tree road Lindsay, ON
A day to make something beautiful—and then do absolutely nothing.
There is something special about this moment between seasons. The garden is still generous, but the light is beginning to change. Flowers that have been growing quietly all summer are finally coming into their own.
Gather & Ground is an afternoon designed around that feeling. We’ll begin with Laurel from Flaurel School, who will guide you through a hands-on two-hour seasonal floral arranging experience using beautiful, locally grown Ontario flowers and blooms from her own garden. These are the flowers of the moment—the dahlias, zinnias, cosmos, rudbeckia, sedum, hydrangeas and other seasonal treasures that are just beginning to shine as we move toward autumn.
No floral arranging experience is needed. Laurel will introduce you to the fundamentals of floral design, including proportion, balance, colour harmony, focal points and creating movement within an arrangement. You’ll learn how to work with seasonal stems, condition your flowers, create a secure vase structure and build an arrangement that feels uniquely yours.
And then, we’ll shift gears.
After our floral workshop, we’ll take some time to enjoy light drinks and refreshments before transitioning into a 90-minute restorative yoga experience with Atheana. We’ll begin with a grounding meditation before settling into a deeply restful practice using supportive poses, props, breathwork and extended stillness. This portion of the afternoon is an invitation to stop doing, soften the body and allow yourself to simply receive.
You’ll leave with a beautiful seasonal arrangement to take home, along with the feeling of having given yourself four uninterrupted hours to create, connect and rest.
What your afternoon includes:
2-hour seasonal floral arranging workshop with Laurel of Flaurel School
Locally grown Ontario flowers + garden-grown blooms
Vase, flowers, greenery and tools provided
Light drinks & refreshments
90-minute restorative yoga practice
Opening meditation + guided relaxation
A finished floral arrangement to take home
Plenty of time to slow down, create and connect
No experience necessary
Whether you’re completely new to floral arranging, yoga, or both, you’re welcome.
Please bring:
A yoga mat, water bottle and comfortable clothing that allows you to move easily from creating flowers to relaxing on your mat.
Investment: $165 + HST
Come gather the beauty of the season. Then let yourself ground, soften and exhale.
