February restorative flow & stretch🌸

Move, breathe and flow for a half day of mindful yoga and relaxation. 🌸

To those of you that came the end of last year to ‘Restore energies’  the class will have a similar relaxing feel. This time with a gentle restorative flow followed by a deep stretch.The restorative flow will be a slow  stretchy-flowy movement (mostly floor based) with variations on familiar poses within yoga/pilates. It’s largely based on my own movement practice  every morning (well, almost every morning) which never feels a chore to do and always leaves me feeling refreshed (rather than depleted!) 🌸
The second part of the session will be a slow, intentional  stretch with a focus on the hips and hamstrings and will have a more familiar yin-like feel. During this session they’ll be optional hands on assists from my ongoing assisted stretch work - especially for the neck and shoulders to help you release further tension.🌸

Light  healthy brunch with something something sweet to finish and of course, plenty of tea ;) 🌸

Conserve energies: A half day restorative yoga retreat:

14.00-18.00

Sunday, 24th November 2024, Choseley House, Lutmans Haven, Knowl Hill

I'm really pleased  to bring more bodywork into my retreats that I've been developing privately over the past couple of years! This has always been a passion of mine, so I'm delighted to finally introduce it into my public events.

The sessions themselves are  gentle and are a mix of restorative yoga and subtle thai massage, yin yoga and Indian head neck massage.There’s no physical feats or tricks that you're going to have to succumb to on the  day - it’s really just simple, un-showy practices designed to bring you a little bit more out of the head and back into the body. Ideal if you feel overwhelmed with the build up to the holiday period or just need to get away to find some physical and mental space for yourself but don't want to travel too far.

Early bird: £50, after 8.11: £55. 
*Now 2 spaces left. If you'd like to get on my mailing list that I send out before social media posts DM me.

Winter meditation and stretch: Thursday 14th December 7-8.15 pm. Zoom. £15, email to book or for more info

An all levels class and a little antidote to the usual Christmas stresses and possibly to our own self criticisms that can be particularly strong at this time of year.

Meditation teacher Michael Stone used to talk about the emergence of the inner critic a xmas draws near. I’m paraphrasing his words, but he mentions self critical thinking in areas such as eating, image and dress. He also mentions following unhelpful lines of thought such as : making assumptions too quickly, overgeneralising and black and white thinking. You get the idea...

As a teacher you often get to hear client’s ups and downs over the year. One surprising thing teaching has taught me is how resilient of spirit and strong ALL people are - It’s just we forget. Thursday 14th is a chance to create a bit of space, re-remember our essential self and come back into a place with a little more clarity. ⛄

PJ’s, duvets and cats all optional. Recording available.
Thursday 14th December 7-8.15 pm. Zoom. £15
