This venture has just completed its first moon cycle! We started meeting 8/2/2025 and this Saturday we celebrated our second full moon together!
This club is creating a wonderful space for connection to ourselves & to each other. Discussions allow us all to learn from each other & it's interesting how similar feelings come up for all of us at certain points in the moon cycle!
What to expect at Cold Dip Journal Club
We start the session with a short introduction to what is happening from an astrology perspective first. Using journal prompts & noting anything that resonates. Everyone receives a journalling booklet to take away with them.
We all choose an oracle card & note down anything that it brings up.
I lead a grounding meditation before we begin with the cold plunge. This helps to put us all in a calm grounded space.
Cold plunge
I take each person out individually. When getting into cold water it's always advisable to have someone with you. First acclimatising to the outside temperature just stood in a swimsuit I will start to talk in a meditative tone. Bringing awareness to the breath and slowing it down. I talk throughout your time in the pool, maintaining your focus on the breath & what's going on within your body & mind. A real connection to yourself can be found in these moments where all you are thinking about is the breath & your body. I will ask if you are able to relax further, release & let go in the places you are holding tension. We aim for 3 minutes but this of course is down to the individual & what feels right for them, I will always gage this too.
It's been great seeing the progress of some people who have been inspired to do regular colds plunges. The ease and resilience that it builds is amazing.
Journalling
After the plunge I usually make a little grazing board for us to share & we chat, drink tea (with hot water bottles & blankets to hand). We draw another oracle card & jot down anything else that has come to light throughout the session.
Cold Dip Journal Club is every fortnight. Working with the Full & New Moon Cycles.
