Yoga for Mind-Body Well-Being

​
​YOGA 

Yoga helps us to learn about and ultimately guide the interplay between mind and body as a vehicle for health and healing.

Developing awareness is key to change. Awareness can help us recognise negative patterns that lead to injury, illness, anxiety, depression and low self esteem. 

Each of my classes combine mindful movement, therapeutic yoga interventions, connective tissue self- body work, simple breathwork and guided relaxation to help release, stabilise, strengthen and relax. This approach is accessible to anyone, doesn’t require much previous yoga experience, and it need not take hours of practice.
In keeping with my passion to make Yoga accessible and effective for everyone, every class I teach is suitable for complete beginners to the more experienced practitioner.

Mindful Movement:
Mindful Movement marries yoga's contemplative elements with asana to create a therapeutic and transformative  practice. Each class integrates the subtle yet powerful interventions of breath work to calm the mind and nervous system, postural alignment  and creative use of props and sequencing to develop space in body and mind.   

Therapeutic Yoga and Myofascial Release:
Almost all forms of yoga help us feel better physically and emotionally, and in many other ways. Yet we can also make yoga more therapeutic by using tools & interventions that help restore balance to all systems of the body and encourage the natural renewal processes  of the body. In this way, we take our yoga practice and  make it integrative, therapeutic and thus, even more healing. 


Guided Relaxation:
Guided relaxation helps  access our natural dimmer switch to restore balance to the nervous system, deepen the relaxation response, reduce stress, improve digestion, enhance immunity and promote emotional well- being.

Back To Simple:

Each  Back to Simple workshops will include

• ​simple breath and mindfulness practices
