This is your invitation to a special heartwarming gathering in celebration of Life. With heart-centred practises of yoga, sacred sound and meditative writing, we will be learning to allow each moment to be a fresh new beginning. These simple yet powerful techniques make space for insight, awareness and hope. In other words, we will be practicing feeling good!
Sound good? Spaces are very limited for this cosy, midwinter workshop so book soon to avoid disappointment. Please bring a yoga mat, blanket and cushion if you would like to use your own. There are also plenty at the centre. You’ll also want a notebook and pen, and maybe a water bottle.
Hearts are lighting up around the world, filled with Hope.

More Details
Heart Of Living Yoga is a very special tradition and practice of yoga which helps us to connect directly with the spiritual heart centre where we can feel at home, at peace, even in a busy world. It doesn’t require any particular belief - just a willingness to experiment and see for yourself. The movement practices are playful, flowing and easily adaptable for any body.
Sacred Sound Journey is an opportunity to lie down (or sit cosy), nested in blankets and cushions while beautiful sound vibrations resonate through your body and your wider field of being. Some people have visions or receive information, others simply feel lighter and clearer afterwards. If you’ve not experienced this before, you’re in for a treat!
Meditative Writing is a simple way to deepen your capacity to write and speak from the heart. By bringing focus into the heart, writing can flow naturally without much effort on the part of the writer. It can be amazing to see what has been waiting to sing through us onto the page. There will be space to share what you’ve written if you wish and to listen to others.
