A fascinating story from someone who studies the brain. It puts a whole new meaning to the phrase “inside knowledge!”
It’s amazing to hear what happens when the left side of the brain is silenced!
Although we shouldn't have to have a stroke to experience this feeling of peace, calm and connectedness.
More motivation to meditate! 🙏

“When life suddenly turns upside down, it’s difficult to see what amazing things you have to keep you going, when you’re right there in the emotional torment. 😭
But remembering the reasons for choosing what you love over what is familiar is crucial to getting your life back on track after a setback.
I’m reminding myself daily of my “why’s.”
My love for teaching about the mind, science and yoga.
What has helped me to heal.
The passion to share this is what gets me through my personal pain.”
~ a memory that popped up today from 25/2/19 and a clear reminder of how far I’ve come and the strength, determination and discipline it’s taken to get me through my darkest days.
Healing doesn’t happen overnight and the road ahead can be long and winding - but absolutely anything is possible if you trust and believe and never give up.
Whatever challenges you may be facing right now, please know that nothing lasts forever.
Sending lots of love.
Amanda 🤍

✨Intuition isn’t something you force. It rises naturally when the noise quietens… when the body feels safe… when the breath becomes steady… when you stop pushing and start listening.
✨Monday 23 Feb | 6.30–8.30pm Join me for The Pause: Evening Yoga Retreat- a blissful, nourishing blend of yin yoga + sound healing + yoga nidra to settle your nervous system and make space for that quiet, steady knowing beneath the busy mind. The part of you that senses what’s aligned… simply by how it feels.
✨ Important: this may be my last session at All Things Must Pass Centre for Wellness for a few months, so if you’ve been meaning to come, take this as your sign.

🤫”Silence is essential. We need silence, just as much as we need air, just as much as plants need light. If our minds are crowded with words and thoughts, there is no space for us.”🤯
Have you ever thought of talking as a noise pollutant?!😳
“There is a restful and regenerative medicine in silence.”
~ UpliftConnect
How often do you take the time out for real silence? 🤨
Are you able to just BE?
No music 🎧 no phone📱no constant distractions & conversations, just pure natural sounds and that peaceful present moment awareness when the head can finally start to unravel!
It may take some time though, be patient! 😂
Do you know someone who needs to be reminded to practice silence? 🤐
Tag them. 🤭
Dr. Amanda Bowen Yoga & Retreats
Many thanks 🙏

THE PAUSE: Evening Yoga Retreat ✨Monday 16 Feb 6.30-8.30pm
A 2-hour mini retreat for anyone who’s ready to stop holding it all in — to soften the inner “keep the peace”, release what’s been suppressed, and come home to clear, calm self-expression… the kind that feels honest, steady, and freeing.
If you’ve been carrying a lot behind a brave face, this is your exhale.
A space to unwind the body, settle the mind, and let something inside you finally unclench.
You’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and more like yourself — grounded in your body and steady in your own presence.
Spaces are limited + booking is essential.
To book: link in comments / DM me “PAUSE” and I’ll send it over.

A Yoga Teacher with a PhD in Metaphysical Science, Certified Holistic Life Coach & Spiritual Counsellor and Wellness Retreat Organiser, with over 500 hours of Yoga Alliance teacher training in India and Ibiza; including hatha, ashtanga, vinyasa, yin, yin yang and aerial yoga.
Being diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome 14 years ago, then PTSD, along with depression and anxiety left me unable to function leading me down the holistic route to get my health and ultimately, my life back; fuelling my passion for health and wellbeing, not just physically but also mentally and emotionally. Yin yoga was the missing piece of the jigsaw, due to its powerful healing benefits.
All this training and studying over the last few years has been my therapy and truly life changing, beyond belief! So I now want to share what has helped me so that I can help others and also educate people on stress management and the devastating effects it can have long term. By incorporating practical brain science and ancient wisdom, this integrated holistic approach has resulted in a substantial improvement to overall wellbeing and emotional balance, on a personal level and also with others, creating the much needed equilibrium for a quality life.
We cannot have a healthy body without a healthy mind. That is a scientific fact.
Yoga is for everyone.
I can bring the stillness and healing into people's lives in order to overcome challenges and find the balance that is so often missing.
Yin Yoga & Mindfulness courses/classes at Hearts Health Club in Wallasey, Merseyside, UK and Healing Time Wellness Centre in Birkenhead, Wirral are currently postponed but please go to my website and sign up to the mailing list to be informed of upcoming announcements.
Private retreats, private group & individual classes can also be arranged once government restrictions are lifted.
