14 days 'back to you'

Moving from the front of the mat, to the back of the mat...and back again. Flowing through familiar poses, allowing you to lift out of your lower back and grow taller.

Round and around we go with this Mandala Flow. Focus on your breath and being in control of your block. This one is definitely a bit tricky!

Top Tip...go as slow as you need, to remain controlled with your breath and movement. Perfect to add as a warm-up before a fiery vinyasa!

Dim the lights, put on your pjs, turn on some relaxing music and settle in. The perfect session for those of you who find it hard to get to sleep zzzzzz. Here's my favourite meditation playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5C8Soq7pqR2hCxZ0IMxM3k?si=9a29dbc5981c43c8)

Start to work on increasing your hip mobility now. Maybe you're someone who has lower back or knee pain, but not sure how to reduce it? Increasing your hip mobility is a good place to start! Grab your blocks, bolster and strap.

Oh surprise surprise...another class with lots of Tiger Curls #sorrynotsorry I just love them, and I will not apologise for it; they hit ALL the right areas AND help us work with our breath. Remember, you can do the exact same thing, but on your knees!

The vagus nerve system acts to counterbalance the fight or flight system and can trigger a relaxation response in our body. A high vagal tone is associated with lower blood pressure, improved blood-sugar regulation, improved digestion, better mood, reduced anxiety, and reduced risk of stroke and cardiovascular disease. Perhaps one of the largest benefits of a higher vagal tone is the ability to relax faster after stress.

In this 15-minute grounding meditation with breathwork suitable for all levels, we'll focus on connecting with the present moment and finding stability and calmness within ourselves. Through guided breathwork exercises and mindful awareness, we'll anchor our attention to the sensations of the breath, allowing it to ground us in the here and now. This practice is perfect for anyone seeking to cultivate a sense of inner peace, clarity, and relaxation. Whether you're new to meditation or have an established practice, this session offers a brief yet powerful opportunity to center yourself and tap into the healing power of the breath. Join us as we journey inward and rediscover the strength and serenity that resides within.

Pull yourself back to the present, away from worries about the future and regrets from the past. Allow yourself to fully sit present in the moment, moving & breathing right here & now. This style of meditation is perfect for the person who says 'I can't meditate', give it a go.
