The 12 Dark Nights: How to End the Year with Clarity

Описание: As the year comes to an end, many of us feel exhausted, overstretched, and quietly overwhelmed.

Deadlines, family commitments, Christmas preparations, and the pressure to “finish strong” often pull us further away from rest — just when our body and mind are asking for exactly that.

In this video, I share the ancient tradition of the 12 Dark Nights (Sperrnächte) — a Celtic and Germanic ritual that has helped me and my clients end the year with clarity, awareness, and calm instead of burnout.

You’ll learn:
• What the 12 Dark Nights really are
• Why reflecting on the past year is essential before planning the next
• How to gently close open loops — emotionally, mentally, and practically
• Simple rituals to let go, finish, and rest
• How restorative yoga and slowing down support your nervous system in December

This is not about doing more.
It’s about ending the year consciously — so the new one can begin with strength and focus.
✨ Even if you’re already in the middle of December — or watching this later — this practice still works.
