Craig Williams Yoga Meditation and Mindfulness

Craig Williams Yoga Meditation and Mindfulness I am a teacher of Zen-based Yoga, meditation and mindfulness based in beautiful South East Cornwall

I have a long and varied history in movement, from martial arts from childhood to the present. I ran a gym in Central Bristol for a few years and I've been practising yoga for around 25 years. After developing a more regular practice in recent years I trained as a meditation and mindfulness teacher last year under Zen master Julian Daizan Skinner and have recently completed my yoga teacher training with Daizan.

In my meditation lately, I've pondered the profound effect that spending time in nature and the natural world has on us. There are studies into how it can help cure depression and anxiety.
Whilst waiting for my train in Paris airport this morning, a little sparrow flew down by my feet. I noticed how many people looked and smiled. It occurred to me that when we see nature, it connects us to the flow of life or the universe. Things that just continue with or without human intervention. The little sparrow looked incongruous amongst all the man made structures, reminding me of the process and the flow of life.

Our next beach Pilates class is on Wednesday evening!

Join us to stretch and strengthen to the rhythm of the tides. I always feel so chilled and connected after these sessions

Oh and the weather is set to be a SUNNY 22 degrees!

Here’s what others have said about our beach sessions:

“I wish I could do Pilates on the beach every day”

“Thank you for a rejuvenating and refreshing experience”

“We’re so lucky to have such a lovely beach to do this on!”

Happy Monday all.
I've just returned from another weekend in Manchester, training in Pranayama with the wonderful Vicki Shields
This weekend, we covered the subjects of self-realisation and mind management. Changing our perception of 'what is' by developing single-pointed awareness. In yoga, pranayama is regarded as the highest Tapas or practice.

Let’s talk about ANXIETY (yes, it’s a thing most of us, including me) experience…

From severe to mild symptoms: Tight chest, sweaty palms,pounding heart, dread, feelings of loss of control or impending panic, butterflies in the stomach,irritability, restlessness, trembling hands, fear, a sense of foreboding (to name but a few.)

ANXIETY IS AN APPROPRIATE RESPONSE TO A SPECIFIC THREAT.

BUT when it spirals out of control or is no longer associated to a specific threat, it becomes chronic, often irrationally triggered. It is life disputing and often debilitating. It is an epidemic illness right now among much of population.

💦 AND floating can help! (Another post to follow shortly on exactly how it does this but you could just come and find out for yourself 😊.)

Just delivered week 3 of the meditation for insight course last night at Cove Mind & Body It's a pleasure to teach to such a lovely group of people. We've gone super deep in the last few sessions, looking at a couple of different types of meditation. Last week we practised Zen Master Bankei's (1622-1693) unborn meditation, and this week we are working on the Koan or question 'Who Am I?". I can't wait to see how everyone got on with their practice when we meet for session 4 next week.

In my meditation and mindfulness practice, sometimes insight comes like a blinding flash, and other times like a dimmer switch slowly coming on.
The light of realisation finding its way through the darkness, bit by bit, like a c***k of sunshine coming through clean bit of a dirty window.
Why not join me on my 8-week zen-based meditation and mindfulness course for insight and grounding to start to clean that window, letting the light of insight shine through.
Each session will be recorded and made available to those who unavoidably have to miss the class and want to catch up later.
The course is available online and in-person at The Cove Mind and Body, Looe on Tuesday evenings at 1930 from 6 May 2025
