108 Sun Salutations for the Summer Solstice: A Free Yoga Event at Berrydown Playing Fields

This summer solstice, embrace the energy of the longest day of the year with a special yoga event offered by The Little Yoga Company. On Saturday, 21st June 2025, the company will host a morning of peaceful yet invigorating yoga at the breathtaking Berrydown Playing Fields in Overton, beginning at 04:30 am.

Participants of all levels, including beginners, are welcome to join in this free community event, which will feature the practice of 108 Sun Salutations. The session is designed to align with the solstice, symbolizing a fresh beginning and an opportunity to connect with the powerful energy of the rising sun.

The event will kick off with a short warm-up to prepare the body, followed by a guided series of Sun Salutations. The number 108 is deeply meaningful in spiritual traditions. In Hinduism, it symbolizes the universe, and in Buddhism, it represents the 108 defilements that one must overcome to achieve enlightenment. This makes the practice of 108 Sun Salutations a deeply symbolic way to honor the solstice and the sacredness of this number.
