Practice
My classes weave together the broad spectrum of Yoga, with nature based practices supported by the wheel of the year. Each practice is based on moving towards a specific state where meditation or deep relaxation can be accessed with as little resistance as possible. These practices are suitable for all with a genuine interest in the practice of Yoga and meditation, even if it is new to you… you are so welcome. I use movement and poses (asana) with breath techniques (pranayama) to prepare the body and mind for mediation or relaxation. It is my hope to bring about a sense of union with all the different parts of yourself coming together. I offer a movement based class and also a rest practice both weekly and monthly (term time only).
Current times:
Wednesday evening Yoga - in person - Ruddington.
7.15pm (70mins) Asana, pranayama, meditation - This class combines elements of Vinyasa Flow and Tantic Hatha Yoga -for all levels. Through movement and breath we work our way towards either the state of Meditation or relaxation.
I offer out lots of options so you can feel at home in your practice.
(every 4th week) 7.15pm (70mins) Rest Practice - This class creates a space for rest to nourish your body, mind and soul. We use a combination of gentle movement, restorative postures, pranayama (breath work) and meditation or relaxation to bring the body to sweet stillness and invite the mind to find ease.
Sunday Circle:
'As within so without, as above so below.'
Come and belong for a morning or afternoon where I hope the space, community and practices will offer connection and nourishment.
Step out of your busy life and into a sacred pause to establish and honour your truth - where you are - what you are moving through.
Although this is a new offering this opportunity has been passed to me by my dear friend Holly at Scared Space Healing to hold while she tends to life. I will keep the circle open in my own way until the next chapter opens.
What to expect:
The Circle is an ancient yet very relevant practice to support us as we move through life. We need each other so we can feel seen, recognised and understood.
The circle is open to all Women.
Here is a taste of what to expect:
Yoga and Tantric practices and philosophy.
Inspiration and support from the Wheel of the Year.
The nourishment and wisdom of Cacao - Cacao ceremony.
Contemplation, enquiry, sharing - only if you want to.
Relaxation and mediation.
Mantra and song.
Movement to suit you.
Community.
Each monthly Circle will be a different combination of practices attuning to the season we are moving through.
Community and Kirtan:
Join the amazing Chrissie Chung and I as we offer this devotional space for community to gather and practice together. We open the practice with a heart centred meditation and then move into Kirtan - a joyful practice of of devotion and play through music and sacred sound. This practice is a real refuge and will hold you on so many levels, you are welcome to come and join in the mantra or just receive… all is valued and welcome. We also offer warm drinks, delicious snacks and community chats after practice.
Online and in person.
Kirtan in person: Upper Saxondale Village Hall.
Heart home online: Online community, meditation and mantra:
Please contact me to find out when the next gatherings will be.
Unwind - recordings now available to buy.
I have now gathered together the recordings from the live practices back in May. They are simple, short and ask very little of you. My hope is that they will act as a threshold between the doing and the resting - so the two don’t blur together and become less potent.
These practices will:
Nourish your nervous system.
Calm a busy and overwhelmed mind.
Enliven the feeling and intelligent space of the body and heart.
There is minimal to no movement. Just find a comfortable and quiet space, close your eyes and follow my voice.
Each practice flows into the next as we become more still and open to the more subtle experience. You could gift yourself a seven day Sadhana or take just one as a stand alone practice as and when you need.
£35.00 for all seven practices.
Access via link which I will send out to you.
