The Yoga Being

25/11/2025

Jo has just announced future dates at the studio.

You honestly won’t be disappointed. This is a transformational offering 🙏

Reconnected.uk Breathwork… these last few weeks have been something really special. The people really showing up, the softening, the courage — in their words, ‘it’s been profound’.

Each session has opened a depth of connection that’s hard to describe: human, honest, grounding and uplifting all at once. I’m grateful to every single person who stepped in, breathed deeply, and trusted the process.

And I’m so excited by the momentum, the growth, and the opportunity that’s now unfolding. Here are the upcoming dates for the next wave of sessions:

November:
• Tue 25 Nov — 10am (in person, The Yoga Being)
• Thu 27 Nov — 1pm (in person, The Yoga Being)
• Thu 27 Nov — 8pm (UK) online

If you feel the pull to reconnect with yourself, strengthen your breath, or simply ground before the year turns — you’re welcome.

If still in doubt… this is what one participant had to say:

‘Joe the breathwork with you was amazing! I went on a much needed holiday from my over-thinking mind. It dissolved all of my fear and anxiety as you put me in the present where those things don’t exist. Being present has carried with me since, leaving me empowered and happy. All this from Re:Connected breathwork!!!’

I started Reconnected.uk to help others — to share what I’ve learned through my own years of struggle, recovery, and healing — so that others don’t have to suffer as much, or as long, as I did.

To be honest, I don’t know how many people will come. Maybe a few. Maybe none (I hope not!). But that’s not really the point.

Because it’s not really about making money. It’s about changing how we understand resilience and mental health. About remembering that with each and every breath, we have a choice — to live with consciousness, awareness, and love, or to stay trapped in old patterns, pain, and the past.

Breathwork isn’t strange or mystical — it can be as gentle or as activating as you need. Guided by music, safely held, and led with care (think Wim Hof, but without the breath holds — deeper, slower, and more aware).

This Friday I’m offering two sessions:

🧘‍♀️ In person – 11am at The Yoga Being, Gosport
💻 Online – 8pm (UK time)

Both are designed to help you pause, release, and reconnect — to yourself, your body, your breath, and maybe something deeper.

If you’re local, give the in-person session a go and help grow a small, supportive community in the Gosport and Fareham area.� If you’re further afield, maybe try an online journey and see what this simple but powerful practice can open for you.

I’d love to see a few familiar faces there — not for me, but for you. For your breath. For your life.

A little message from Jo at Driftwood and Daisies Flower School….

I’m absolutely thrilled to be invited back for this year’s Festive Flow Retreat!

Christmas is such a magical (and sometimes a little bonkers!) time of year, so taking a moment for yourself at the start of the season is just what we all need.

Spaces are limited, so book early to avoid disappointment. I can’t wait to join the lovely Yoga Being ladies once again and help you create a beautiful, natural door wreath to kick off the festivities in style!

Head to www.theyogabeing.co.uk to join us for a magical evening of gentle chair yoga, meditation, wreath making, festive food, mulled wine, and a blissful soak in the spa pool with breathtaking views across the Solent. 🌙💫

Introducing Re:Connected Breathwork with Joe Winch.

The newest member to The Yoga Being Studio is someone truly inspirational — and his work is absolutely transformational ✨

I had the absolute pleasure of receiving a 1:1 breathwork session with Jo last month, and it was incredible. I’m beyond grateful that his gifts will now be shared with our community at the studio 🙏

Hi everyone — I’m Joe, founder of Re:Connected, a trauma-informed breathwork and somatic awareness practice based here in Gosport. After 20 years as a Royal Marines Officer and a long personal journey through injury, PTSD, and recovery, I discovered the power of conscious breathwork to reconnect body, mind, and spirit.

Re:Connected was born from that journey — offering guided breathwork journeys that blend science, somatic practice, and heart-led human connection. Each session is a chance to safely explore expanded states of awareness, release what’s held in the body, and rediscover a deep sense of peace, clarity, and connection.

Sessions are open to anyone seeking healing, balance, or simply more presence in their life — whether you’re already experienced in yoga and mindfulness or completely new to breathwork.

You can find out more at reconnected.uk, sign up for class updates or connect directly with me to ask questions or join an upcoming session.

Breathe deep — and come home to yourself. I look forward to meeting you soon,
Joe

This past year has brought so many changes and challenges.

There are moments when I feel incredibly proud of everything I’ve navigated… yet just as I’m about to level up and stand more fully in the light, I somehow find a way to sabotage my own progress.

It’s a pattern I’ve known my entire life — so why do we do that? Why do we get in our own way?

I believe it’s because, deep down, we sometimes don’t feel we deserve better or are capable of more. My therapist told me:

💬 “We all have the capacity to do this. Realising it is 50% of the solution, applying ourselves to the solution is the other 50%.”

But what if you’ve been aware of this pattern for over a decade? Then what?

There’s no real excuse right? — but I’ve realised that I’d started to anticipate the next life quake. Therefore instead of letting life flow, I’ve put my own hurdles in the way — maybe because if I create the storm first, I feel like I’m in control of it.

The good news is — I do know how to shift this energy.

And you can too. ✨

✨Return to what you love — and if you’re not sure what that is right now, think back to when you were a child. What lit you up back then? What made time disappear? After all, time isn’t real — just a man-made illusion we’ve learned to live by.

✨Double down on your spiritual practice.

✨Let go of resentment and regret — they only lower your vibration.

✨Raise it again through movement, yoga, reading something inspiring, gratitude, and most importantly, having some wholesome fun. 💛

Here’s to rising again…
and honouring we are human after all 🌿

🌿 Lean into what you love…

One of my biggest joys right now is offering 1:1 yoga, healing/coaching sessions.

I haven’t quite found the perfect wording to describe this work yet, so for now, it’s simply called Your Practise.

Why? Because no two sessions are ever the same. Each person who walks through my studio door brings their own story, needs, and energy — and each week, I get to explore new ways of offering support, guidance, and space for healing.

I love these sessions because they allow me to blend all my skill sets — yoga, hands-on healing, life coaching, and intuitive guidance — to create something truly personal.

Some sessions weave all of these elements together. Others focus on just one or two. The beauty is in meeting you exactly where you are.

✨ My studio was created with this in mind — a calm, nurturing space that holds the energy for deep rest, release and healing. ✨

Many of those I work with continue beyond their initial three sessions, as the journey naturally unfolds — but if you’re curious and new to this kind of work, a single session is a lovely way to explore if it feels right for you.

If you’d like to chat more about how I work or what’s going on for you physically, emotionally, or mentally, I’m always happy to connect for a friendly phone call.
