You don’t need invasive treatments to feel amazing!
Let me introduce you to reflexology:
A holistic way to restore balance from the ground up.

🌿 What is reflexology?

A non-invasive, holistic treatment that uses targeted pressure on the feet’s reflex points. These points mirror the body’s organs, glands, and systems, helping your body to rebalance on a physical, emotional, and mental level.

🌿 How can it help you?

→ Releases blockages and restores energy flow
→ Supports emotional, physical, and mental well-being
→ Promotes deep relaxation and overall balance

✨ My treatment options:

→ Taster reflexology – 20 mins | £20
→ Reflexology – 60 mins | £50
→ Aroma reflexology – 60 mins | £60 (includes pure essential oils to target specific conditions)

🌿 Are you curious to try this non-invasive, holistic treatment?

We breath involuntarily, yes but do we breathe consciously and to our optimum level? Mostly not.

Stress and anxiety can cause our breathing rate to rise, and our breath to be shallow, breathing from the chest or throat rather than from the abdomen or main diaphragm which affects our energy, focus, and overall well-being.

That’s where pranayama - calming, conscious breathing, comes in.

In yoga, we connect the mind with the breath, allowing us to release tension and create spaciousness and expansion in the body.

✨ Breathing techniques I teach:

→ Ujjayi – gentle, ocean-sounding breath
→ Brahmari – calming “bee breath”
→ Viloma – 3-part breath
→ Extended breathwork
→ Box breath
→ Alternate nostril breathing (Nadi Shodhanam)

🌿 Why it works? The benefits:

→ Reduces stress and anxiety
→ Promotes relaxation and emotional balance
→ Lowers blood pressure and supports circulation
→ Improves focus and mental clarity
→ Prepares the mind and body for meditation
→ Enhances overall well-being and energy flow

Are you ready to breathe properly and feel calmer, grounded, and more connected?

I’d love for you to join us at our next yoga session on Tuesday 25th November between 7 pm and 8.30 pm in Clayton West Methodist Church, where we include these conscious breathing techniques.

It was an absolute pleasure to collaborate today with the wonderful Kirsty McDonald of Art2Art Society at Fletcher’s Mill, Dean Clough in Halifax. I loved every moment of holding a cacao ceremony and creating a sacred, supportive, safe space themed around creativity and self-care, beautifully complementing Kirsty’s abstract art workshop.

We used journal prompts to help us connect with our inner creativity and choose a personal theme for our artwork. My theme was water, while others chose circles, community, lines, calmness and out of my comfort zone. We then moved into a guided meditation focused on the third eye chakra, inviting illumination, intuition, and creative flow.

Our artwork unfolded in layers: first collaging paper, card and bubble wrap onto our base, then painting over it in black and drying each layer with a hairdryer. We scraped back areas of black paint, used masking tape to preserve chosen sections, and painted over in white. After removing the tape, we added vibrant touches of colour with alcohol inks and water sprays. The results were incredible. For me, the key was not overthinking or becoming attached to the outcome — the magic was in the process and intention.

I used to shy away from painting and drawing out of fear of how others might judge the finished piece. But now I feel able to let go, trust the process, and simply enjoy being in the flow which was one of the reasons my theme was water and also being a Piscean. I found the experience deeply calming and therapeutic and it brought me into the present moment allowing me to let go of any worries or concerns. Time to just be, rather than doing.

I'm very much looking forward to our next session on Saturday 13th December, 10:30am–1:30pm (details are on the attached flyer).

We would love for you to join us and share in the experience.

We’ve all heard “Your body is a temple.”
It’s time to start treating it like one.

✨When did we stop caring what we put into our bodies?
✨When did we stop noticing what’s absorbed into our bodies through our skin
✨When did we stop treating our bodies with the respect they deserve?

Your skin is porous, the largest organ in your body.
Everything you put on it is absorbed into your body, into your bloodstream and could be having a detrimental affect on your internal organs.

Think about what touches your skin every day:

🌿 Body wash.
🌿 Shampoo.
🌿 Conditioner.
🌿 Washing powder.
🌿 Moisturiser.
🌿 Make-up.

Most of these are filled with man-made chemicals our bodies were never designed to process.

And it’s not just what’s on us, it’s what’s in us too.
So many foods are full of hidden sugars, additives, and emulsifiers.
They keep us craving more because sugar triggers dopamine, the brain’s “feel good” hit.

Our ancestors didn’t eat this way.
They lived off the land, naturally and simply.

✨That’s why I chose the name Pura Vida, meaning pure life in Spanish.

All our products are natural and organic, created to work in harmony with your body.
Your body is your temple.

What you eat, what you apply, and how you care for yourself, IT ALL MATTERS!

✨ If you believe in living more naturally, caring for your body, and finding balance inside and out, like and follow Pura Vida Holistic Therapies here on Facebook for more mindful, holistic content and tips for living a truly pure life.

Before you reach for your phone tomorrow… try this instead.
✨ Challenge: Name 5 things you’re grateful for.
(Small or big, practicing gratitude brings positivity and supports your mental health.)

Before the day begins, pause and think of five things you truly appreciate.
It could be something as simple as:

• A warm, cosy bed
• Hot running water
• A fridge keeping your food fresh
• Morning sunlight
• Time to breathe before the day starts

When we begin with gratitude, we shift our focus from what’s missing to what’s already here, creating a calm, grounded start to the day.

✨Today I wanted to focus on mindfulness and intention setting (Sankalpa).

In Sanskrit, Sankalpa means a heartfelt intention or resolve.
It’s a short, present-tense statement that embodies the energy you wish to carry through your day.

Here are some examples:

🌿 I am confident and creative
🌿 I am abundant in all areas of my life
🌿 I am healthy and full of vitality

✨Your Sankalpa ISN’T about wishing, it’s about REMEMBERING who you already are.

Start your morning tomorrow with both gratitude and intention,
A simple practice to bring mindfulness, clarity, and calm into your day.

Breathing techniques are often misunderstood.
“People tell me to breathe when I’m frustrated…”
✨ Let’s look at why breathing really matters, and how it can do so much more than calm you down.

✨ Introducing the Power of Ujjayi Breathing Technique

🌿 Ujjayi (pronounced oo-jai) is an ancient yogic breathing technique used for thousands of years to enhance Hatha yoga practice.

It means “the victorious breath” and is often called “the oceanic breath.” The sound you create is soft and steady, like ocean waves, wind blowing through trees, or a baby peacefully sleeping.

This breath helps you move smoothly in and out of postures, linking breath with movement. When holding poses, it helps you stay calm and focused.

By deepening and lengthening your breath, Ujjayi:

• Balances the cardiovascular system
• Increases oxygen in the blood
• Nourishes and energises the body

It’s also wonderful for calming the mind, perfect before a job interview, presentation, or any stressful event.

The benefits:

🌿 Releasing irritation, frustration and tension
🌿 Encouraging the free flow of prana (life force energy)
🌿 Regulating blood pressure
🌿 Building internal heat and energy
🌿 Detoxifying the mind and body
🌿 Encouraging presence and self-awareness

(This breathing technique is suitable for beginners, experts and everyone in between)

Would you like to try this out for yourself?
Come along to our yoga classes on Tuesday evenings between 7 pm and 8.30 pm in Clayton West Methodist Church.

I’ve been leading Kirtan for a few months now,
And I still get asked what it is.
✨So let me tell you.

🌿 Kirtan is a form of devotional singing that comes from the Bhakti yoga tradition. It’s all about connecting with your heart through sound, using call-and-response chanting to quieten the mind, , and create a sense of deep peace and knowing, allowing us to truly come home to ourselves. Who am I? Kirtan – A journey to self-connection, self-discovery and self-love.

✨Do you enjoy singing?
(And don’t worry, it doesn’t need to be in tune.)

If the answer is yes, then this evening is for you.

You’ll experience an evening of song and mantra, connecting with your inner self and leaving with a sense of calm, deep peace, clarity, and renewal.

🌿 It’s not about performance,
🌿 It’s about presence.

All you need to bring is your voice and your intention.

Kirtan is also about gathering together in community, something we seem to have forgotten.

It’s a chance to meet like-minded people, share sacred space, and maybe even turn these gatherings into regular catchups over your favourite herbal tea or a warm cup of cacao.

✨Come along, sing, release, and reconnect with yourself and others.

Does this sound like it could be for you? Book onto our next session on the 27th November between 7.45 pm and 9.30 pm in Denby Dale Pie Hall.

📲 Book today by emailing amanda@puravidaholistics.co.uk or send me a message.

Tension, stress, and fatigue are signs of energetic imbalance.
🌿 Reiki helps bring you back into harmony.

Usui Reiki is an original method of natural healing developed by Mikao Usui in Japan in the early 20th century. The word Reiki (ray-key) means “universal life force energy”, the energy that nourishes and sustains all living things.

✨During a Reiki session:

• My hands are placed gently on or just above your clothed body
• Universal energy flows through to clear blockages
• The body returns to balance and harmony
• You experience calm, clarity, and deep relaxation

✨Reiki supports healing on EVERY level, NOT just physical:

• Physical – easing tension, fatigue, and discomfort

🌿 60 minutes of intuitive energy healing

🌿 Gentle rebalancing of your body’s natural energy flow

This ISN’T just a treatment.

It’s a reset for your mind, body, and spirit.

Treatment – 60 minutes, £55.00
