Yoga For The Frazzled - come find find some chill time

"Remember that rest isn't something you have to earn. You are worthy of rest because you are." 

Octavia Raheem

Let’s gather to find time and space for ourselves. We need to find more  to pause, to slow down, to stop and find some calmness and ease. Modern life is exhausting. The world right now is exhausting. Come and join me to really find that time and space for you. To re-set your nervous system and to really nourish yourself.

This series of four gorgeous Thursday evenings has been curated to calm and nourish you. To balance out the stresses and busyness of modern life and gently shift your body and mind to a more peaceful, calm & grounded place.

These series of evenings will provide the opportunity to let go of your tension and stresses for a little while, to build you resilience and to experience techniques to use at home for moments of calm and peacefulness too. To take some time to pause, to resource ourselves so we are more grounded - inspite of difficulties and distractions in the world - to ensure that we are feeding our own self-care, whilst resting in a beautiful space together.

What we'll do:

~ We'll practice simple gentle fluid somatic movement,  that will release tension and stress from the your body.

~ There will be replenishing restorative yoga postures to help the body deeply rest & relax (lying down, all cosy with bolsters and blankets) 

~ Spend time with simple but super effective breathing practices to calm and soothe.

~ Practice simple meditation practices to feel connected and grounded, that you can then use whenever you need to in daily life as I'll send you an email each week of recordings to use too.

~ Each week will ending with a long guided relaxation (yoga nidra) to really let go in your mind.

There will also be a restful soundscape and grounding aromatherapy too.  All of the stuff that brings you back to yourself. This is yoga self-care for everyone.

The benefits of these sessions:

~ You'll leave feeling more space, ease and freedom in your body and your mind.

~ You'll sleep better and feel less frazzled. 

~ You'll be less stressed, as the practices move you into the relaxation response

~ You'll be supporting your health & wellbeing

Join me for a little haven of rest and peacefulness, a cocoon of calm and cosyiness to help resource ourselves. Where you can slow down, honour what needs your attention and give some much needed loving care back to your body, your mind and your soul.
