Yoga – In our session we will practice gentle hatha yoga also incorporating some restorative poses, including breathing, and a series of postures that promote general well-being as well as relaxation.
Sound bath – Sound healing is an ancient art used for thousands of years for calming and tuning the mind while re-balancing the body by releasing tension and subtle energetic blockages. A sound bath is a deeply relaxing and simple yet profound way to connect with the centre of our being. You will be bathed in the healing sounds many instruments including Tibetan Singing Bowl, crystal bowls, Gong, Hand pan, Shamanic Drum, Sansula, Koshi Bells, and Rainstick. I will immerse you in a soothing soundscape, playing around and over the body so that the vibrations can be fully absorbed and appreciated whilst you lie down comfortably on a mat.
Yoga Nidra meditation – Yoga nidra (also known as yogic sleep) is a wonderful technique for relaxing the body and the mind. Yoga nidra can be as restful and restorative as sleep, where we we learn to be between the states of wakefulness and sleep whilst remaining fully conscious. Yoga Nidra takes us into a state of harmony and restfulness. From here, we can experience healing, restore ourselves and awaken to our deep self. Giving your mind and body an extra window of deep relaxation enables us to enjoy a greater sense of well-being!
Breathwork – Of course we breathe every moment of everyday without even giving it a second thought most of the time, but by harnessing the breath with specific breathing practices we can affect positive changes in our lives. These techniques can slow things down, help pain management, improve sleep and provide tools for dealing with anxiety. Breathwork provides a wealth of strategies for dealing with the uncertainties of our day to day lives.
Somatics – Somatics is a gentle physical practice that creates calm and is deeply relaxing. Dirived from the work of Thomas Hanna somatics emphasises internal physical perception and experience and supports modern body needs. Somatics is also an exploration of modern stress and trauma, and what this means for our bodies, and minds. It enables us to managing these stresses through gentle movement.
Yin Yoga – Yin yoga is a gentle and meditative style of yoga that focuses on stretching and strengthening the body’s connective tissues and calming the mind by holding poses for a longer time than in a traditional yoga class. Unlike more dynamic styles of yoga that target muscles, yin yoga aims to promote deep release and increased flexibility.
