As we head into the colder months join me to indulge in an afternoon of deep rest. Learn a mala meditation, where you will receive a gemstone mala to take home with you, and learn how to tap into this gentle form of mindfulness. You will be able to continue this practice with your new mala whenever you would like to.

Meditation can help reduce stress levels, improve sleep, and lower blood pressure, among many other benefits. But meditation isn’t always easy - I really struggle to quieten the monkey brain. Many of us find it hard, especially in the beginning, to keep our minds from wandering. And that’s where mala beads come in. Mala beads can help you to keep focus, facilitating that stillness we crave.

During this restful afternoon we gentle, flowing yoga to open and warm the muscles. We will then familiarise ourselves with our malas and learn how to use them. Perhaps focussing on the breath or using a mantra or intention. We thenl finish with Reiki yin yoga - settling into the stillness of long held poses where you can receive hands on Reiki if you wish. An opportunity to bank up your energy for the winter to come.
Yin yoga encourages you to go inward and find the peace within you. Yin is a gentle practice and is accessible to everyone so please don't worry if you don't have any experience with this. The majority of postures are on the floor and I will provide everything you need.

Reiki is a gentle form of hands on healing. Once settled into a yin pose it is a wonderful opporutnity to receive this energy if you wish.

We will complete this afternoon with snacks and refreshments and an opportunity to mingle or perhaps just take some quiet time on your mat.

The cost for this afternoon is £25 without a mala or £40 to include your mala. Refreshments are provided as are all mats, blocks, cushions and blankets.

Taking place at my home studio on Littlemoor Road DT3 6LA.
