What to Expect on the Day
🌞 Morning: The Yang — Completion & Clean Action
A curated container to help you move through what’s been hanging over you, admin, emails, life tasks, paperwork, creative loose ends, the things that weigh on your mind.
You’ll move in a field of gentle, grounded accountability, with structure that feels supportive.
Expect:
- A grounding opening circle
- A clear plan for your personal completion list
- Guided deep-focus blitz session to close loops and complete tasks
- A teaching on The Energetics of Responsibility, bringing action back into alignment
- Support, guidance and excellent vibes to carry you through your active morning
🌙 Afternoon: The Yin — Rest, Ritual & Renewal
With your tasks complete and your mind lighter, we shift into softness.
Expect:
- A nourishing guided rest practice
- Breath, stillness, gentle movement
- Soulful journaling and year-close reflections
- A grounding winter ceremony
- Prompts to honour what’s complete, and to release what no longer needs your energy
This is where you exhale.
Where the shoulders drop.
Where the year begins to settle.
You end the day feeling restored, clear, and quietly powerful.
Ending the year well does something quiet but profound. It releases the body from carrying unfinished conversations, half-made decisions, and emotional residue into the next cycle.
When that weight lifts, something else becomes possible. Not through striving, but through space.
The Final Flame is not about planning next year or setting intentions prematurely. It is about clearing the soil so that whatever wants to emerge next is not distorted by what was never properly ended.
Completion is what makes renewal honest.

“The Desire 1 day retreat in London was exactly the medicine my soul ordered. The day was a gorgeous creation to connect and share with other women, hear the whisper of my soul, and let out some much needed tears. My takeaways were Permission to go slow; nature teaches us the rose blooms, wilts, dies and then grows back differently. Growing back differently was the inner bell of truth I needed to hear and welcome. Change is inevitable, as is growing back differently. I loved these reflections you shared with me I felt safe and lovingly held in your energy. Thank you.”
