Making your own Kombucha – Saturday 30th Aug 2025 – 10.30 am – 12.30 pm

What is Kombucha?  Basically it’s fermented tea.  It is a probiotic – containing bacteria/micro organisms reputed to be good for our gut health and supportive to our immune system

In this workshop you will learn all about kombucha, and how you can make your own at home for next to nothing.  Just a little sugar and a few green tea bags approximately every 2 weeks.

You’ll need a SCOBY - Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast.  This is what ‘eats’ the sugar and  in turn ferments the brew.

I’ve brewed my own Kombucha for more years than I care to remember now – and as some clients have expressed an interest in making their own I thought I’d share my brewing tips with you.

£25 for worksop and SCOBY

£50 for the workshop plus  SCOBY and 8L brewing jar.   You will be ready to go!

Autumnal Equinox - Drumming Circle - £30.  Saturday 20th Sep 2025

2.00 – 4.00 pm

Sunday 21st September 2025 marks the Autumnal Equinox, a moment in the year when day is equal to night. The word equinox comes from the Latin “equi” – meaning equal, and “nox” – meaning night. As the Spring Equinox in March signifies the ascent into the warmer days of summer, the Autumnal Equinox marks the descent into the darker days of winter. From this point onwards the nights grow increasingly longer than the days.

The Equinox is an opportunity for us to look to the natural world for guidance and comfort. The cyclical change in seasons allows us to look inwards at our own transformation and growth during the past year. And as the leaves fall from the branches, we learn to let go of what no longer serves us.

Using the ancient beat of the drum can help us to connect with our ancestors and the ‘old ways’.  Taking comfort from its heart beat we can prepare for our transition into the darker months.  Just as our ancestors did – knowing that the coming winter months are part of the amazing cycle life.

Drums can be provided if you don’t have your own

A Somatics workshop for those who have attended the ‘Introduction to Somatics’ sessions in Oct/Nov 2022.

With a basic understanding of the concept of Somatics we are ready to progress to learning a basic workout that you can practice regularly at home.

What’s included in the session:

As in the previous sessions we will run a ‘self body scan’ – noticing where we are tight/uneven/out of balance

A recap on some of the basics

A closer look at Red and Green light and Trauma reflexes and how we might go about planning our own ‘maintenance’ self practice according to the needs of our bodies.

If you are interested in attending this session but did not attend the ‘Introduction To Somatics’ session last year it is still possible to attend if you would like to book a one to one session with me to bring you up to speed.

Please email me if you would like to do this – and if there is more than one person I will try to arrange the session so that you can attend together which will be reflected in the reduced price per person susan@bodynurture.co.uk
