🍂⚔️ Viking Warriors ⚔️🍂
Thursday 23rd | 6.30–7.30pm

As Autumn settles in, we move with the rhythm of change — grounding, releasing, and gathering strength from the turning of the season. 🍁

This class calls in your inner warrior — strong, focused, and steady — honouring the fire within as nature begins to slow and soften.
Expect earthy movement, breath to anchor you, and a powerful flow to awaken vitality and resilience.

Let’s move together through the shifting light — fierce, rooted, and ready for what’s ahead. 🔥🌿

🌑 Soothing Yoga Rituals

Wednesday 21st | 6:30–7:30pm
£8pp

We gather under the energy of the New Moon, a time for stillness, renewal, and quiet intention. This particular moon is a micro moon, sitting at its farthest point from Earth — its pull softer, its energy subtle and introspective.

Our practice will invite you to pause, breathe, and move gently, creating space to listen inward and align with this delicate lunar rhythm.

We’ll close with a sound meditation featuring a beautiful new addition to our collection — the monochord. This instrument produces a continuous, harmonic resonance that vibrates through the body, creating a deeply grounding and meditative experience — like being bathed in layers of pure tone and tranquility.

🌈 Embrace Your Beautifully Wired Mind 🌿

Marianne shared this post the other day that really resonated with me — about brain diversity, ADHD, and autism.
The truth is, we all probably fall somewhere along that spectrum.
But for some of us, our minds have always felt like a bit of a battle.

Growing up in the 70s and 80s, there weren’t labels or understanding — just judgments.
You were “thick,” “naughty,” “rebellious,” or “odd.”
I’ve felt all of those things.

Maths was the bane of my life — total gobbledygook!
Even now, I still mix up numbers when I’m writing down a mobile.

And the sensitivity…
To people.
To noise.
To food and drinks.
Psoriasis was my body’s first cry for help — gluten and I have never been friends.
And back in the day, everything was full of E-numbers — no wonder Monster Munch and Wotsits sent me bouncing off the walls!

But then there’s the darker side.
Addiction.
That desperate attempt to fit in or quiet the mind — self-medicating the anxiety, the noise, the never-ending feeling of not being “enough.”
It starts at school — feeling useless — and follows into relationships, becoming co-dependent, addicted to another person.
Drama after drama.

But here’s the magic… 🌟
We have superpowers.

With our heightened sensitivity comes deep intuition and incredible strength.
We often make powerful healers, teachers, and empaths — because once we learn to manage the mind, our connection to Source, to consciousness, expands.

We don’t fit into the matrix of materialism ,force or ego — we move with the rhythm of nature.
We are free spirits.
We feel.

So if you’re out there feeling like a square peg trying to fit in a round hole — stop.
Be you. Embrace you.

Be mindful of what and who you let in — low-vibrational food, drink, people, and places can dim your light.
Reach out. There’s more understanding now than ever before.

And most of all — enjoy your powers.
Don’t suppress your magic.

Tuesday 23rd

Yoga - simple, powerful, transformational.

My mat is my happy place, where I can be true to myself and my smile is never fake.

I loose myself in my practice. The stress is gone and my mind is at peace - no responsibility, no bills, no deadlines. The mat gives me freedom.

But it’s not about loosing who you are, it’s about bringing awareness to who you truly are when your soul is free.

Embrace your awesomeness on the mat 🙏

Monday 20th
Yoga with Yang Yasuke
6.30-7.30pm
We’ve reached the final chapter in our chakra journey — the Crown Chakra (Sahasrara) — the centre of awareness, unity, and connection to the divine.

This chakra sits at the very top of the head, symbolising expansion, consciousness, and our link to something greater than ourselves. It’s less about effort and more about allowing — letting go of control, softening the thinking mind, and resting in presence.

Our final class in this series will bring everything together: gentle movement, somatic awareness, and breathwork to balance the whole energy system before settling into a long, guided meditation.
It’s a space to pause, reflect, and integrate all we’ve opened over the last several weeks — grounding the lessons of each chakra and leaving you with a sense of peace, wholeness, and connection.

Expect:
🌿 Somatic and grounding movements to centre body and breath
✨ Gentle flow to open through spine and crown
🌬 Breathwork to expand awareness
🕊 Extended meditation + relaxation to close our chakra journey

Wow, what a beautiful evening!
Our Cacoon, our Cacao Sound Journey and of course — our beautiful beds 💤
Thank you to all you lovely ladies who attended. Your energy and gratitude were absolutely fabulous.

The chanting in both sessions was spine-tingling — I loved it! You can YAM with me anytime 💛

A big thank you to Clare Ball, my wing woman — we’re definitely finding our groove!

Whether you were immersed in your Cacoon or relaxing on a bed, I hope you floated away feeling nourished, grounded, and blissfully content. 🌿✨

Tonight we celebrate Clare Ball Holistics🌸

Clare held her first Reiki Level 1 course in our precious Zen Den — guiding and attuning four beautiful ladies on their journey to becoming Reiki Practitioners.

It was a day filled with calm, connection, and gentle transformation as Clare led them through the sacred process of attunement with such grace and heart.

✨ Well done to Clare and to each of the women who stepped into their Reiki path today.
A truly special moment in our healing space. 💫

✨ I’m super excited to bring this brand new class tomorrow! ✨

Saturday 18th
Yoga–Massage
🕤 9:30–10:30am
(May run over by 10 minutes… let’s see where the flow takes us 💫)

This class is a fresh, intuitive approach to practice — blending movement, breath, and touch.
After working as a massage therapist for over 35 years, I feel deeply called to share this way of moving that honours the body’s wisdom.

Let’s step away from force, ego, and adrenaline…
and move instead with curiosity, rotation, and protection.

We’ll explore the three planes of movement:
🌿 Sagittal – forward and back
🌿 Frontal – side to side
🌿 Transverse – twisting and spiralling
These are the natural pathways our bodies love to move through — and when explored with awareness, they bring balance, freedom, and flow.

There are also three major energetic pathways I’ll guide you to gently unlock — easing energetic tension and awakening your body’s natural rhythm.

We’ll invite the inner ocean of fascia to come alive through mindful movement and breathwork — helping to soothe and restore the ventricular branch of the vagus nerve, supporting deep release and nervous system harmony.

I’ve created a high-vibrational massage balm, and I’ll be placing a small amount on a spatula for each of you to use — inviting the senses to open and connect.
We’ll also use an acupressure pen on key meridian points before melting into meditation with warm flannels and breathwork to realign.

A full sensory journey of movement, stillness, and self-care.
Can’t wait to share this new experience with you all 💛
