The theme for our new term is “VASANTA” inspired by the change in season. In spring, those aspects of ourselves that have been dormant over the winter months begin to awaken. Nature enters a cycle of renewal, growth and expansion as does the energy within us. For any plant to grow well, the health of the soil is most important. And like soil, the health of our mind and body is essential too. This months practices include both Yin and Yang yoga asana, pranayama, affirmations and deep rest. We’ll create a deep intention for this new cycle of growth and expansion into the light once more. Expect practices for stress relief, flexibility and strengthening.
I’ll be encouraging flow, flexibility and fun in classes next week as we build on from our strong grounding practices to embracing life with passion and joy on our journey of growth and renewal.
Reminder – there is no class at Smeeton this Wednesday due to hall repairs. Thank you for accommodating the last minute venue change at Stoneygate due to the burst water main on London Road – assume we’ll be back to normal next week unless I message beforehand.
NOW BOOKING: We have our monthly restorative yoga class this week on Wednesday – SOOTHING TRANSITIONS – a deeply relaxing practice to help redress the effects of stressful life events.
Take care everyone, I look forward to seeing you next week.
Namaste,
Kim Xx
