Monthly classes & events
Monthly (Thursday) 'Tune In and Chill Out' (Restorative Yoga & Yoga Nidra)
A monthly deep relaxation class which gives you an opportunity to wind down and feel rested and restored.
Thursdsay - 20 Apr
Thursday - 25 May
Description
For those of you that have attended a ‘Yoga Nidra’ class, you will know that taking time to slow down and restore your body is vital for our physical and mental wellbeing and overall health. During this 75 minutes you will be guided through a restorative pose supported by yoga props to enable a deep sense of release and relaxation, holding the pose for 5-10 minutes to fully enable you to tune into and relax your body and feel the benefits of the restorative pose and breathing practice.
Many people forget or don't know how to relax their nervous system, we all have patterns of tension that run through our bodies and relaxing in a conscious way is very different from sleeping, watching TV or reading a book for example. Many people spend their lives rushing around and their bodies can be in a state of 'fight or flight' mode much of the time, which can elevate the stress hormone 'cortisol'. In this session we aim to reduce high levels of cortisol and let the Parasympathetic Nervous system do it's job of maintaining 'Homeostasis' and relaxing your body/mind and nervous system.
This session can be beneficial anyone and is also helpful for those who have chronic fatigue, burnout, long covid, overworked, cancer, feeling stressed, anxious etc and those who may have an illness that prevents them from being active or those who are in recovery from an illness.
Come along and learn how to relax your mind and body, improve your breathing and be guided through a yoga nidra to help you feel restored and enhance sleep.
The studio is fully equipped but if you could bring along your own yoga mat and two blankets please and if you have your own yoga props feel free to bring those along too.
You will need to work from the floor (which will be warm from the underfloor heating). If you need assistance getting up and down from the floor support can be provided (please let me know in advance). To book please email yogibabs@icloud.com or telephone.
Time: 19:00-20:15
Price £10 if paid in advance (drop in £12).
Booking and payable in advance, non refundable (spaces limited, please check there is a space if dropping in).
Suitable for all levels and no previous yoga practice necessary.
Yoga Weekend Mini Retreats
Yoga Mini Retreat - 20 May, 'Light Your Inner Fire'
For the May mini retreat - we will focus on the transformative qualities of Summer and the Fire element, the morning will include yoga, breathing, guided meditation and various asanas and flowing practices to stoke our Agni (inner fire) and to welcome the Summer months ahead. We will finish the morning with a cooling restorative heart opening practice and relaxation to ensure we balance Yin and Yang.
In ‘Ayurvedic Medicine’, yoga’s sister science, Agni is our inner fire and is associated with the Solar plexus chakra (Manipura). In Chinese medicine and Qi Gong (Five Element Theory), the season of summer is associated with the Fire element. Fire is double yang, meaning it is a time of high and active energy. It’s a time of year filled with warmer days and evenings, sunshine and high energy for many. Our Qigong and yoga practice can mirror this higher state of energy by being more dynamic and movement-oriented during the summer months.
The organs in the body associated with the Fire Element are the heart and small intestine. Fire is unique in that it also includes the Pericardium (Heart). In Chinese Medicine, the heart governs all body organs including the mind and has a direct effect on consciousness and mental health.
Some Qi Gong movements will be included focusing on organs mentioned above and the meridians associated with these organs.
The studio is fully equipped but please bring feel free to bring along a non slip yoga mat if you have one, a blanket and a pillow. All other yoga equipment will be provided.
The morning finishes at 1.00pm and we will then gather in for a light seasonal lunch and chat/discussion should you wish to stay.
