Monthly Restorative Yoga Practice with Annie Neat
22nd February 14.00-16.00
Restorative Yoga is designed to support us to settle into our parasympathetic nervous system (the rest and digest part of our nervous system). This not only helps us to relax and destress but also can support us with connection to ourselves and others.
So what is it?
We hold simple, yet familiar, yoga poses for extended period of times. These yoga poses are supported by loads of props so that your body can slowly release into the poses. We are gently opening up the fascia (connective tissue) in the body which can support our physical and emotional wellness. This workshop really is suitable for everybody! We can work with injuries, illnesses and vulnerabilities you may be managing.
With her training in somatic therapy and breathwork, Annie offers skilful touch and presence to help you meet true rest.

Monthly Sound bath with Janet Holt
26th February 19.45-20.45
The last Thursday of every month Janet hosts a soundbath for relaxation. We all need time to ourselves to deeply relax, time away from the chatter of the mind and for healing to begin.
Soundbaths work by entraining the brain, it latches onto the sounds and frequencies so that it slows down.
We go from a busy active brain to calm relaxed brain state. By slowing everything down it helps us to process the day and starts the healing process for our minds and bodies.
Janet plays the Himalayan and crystals singing bowls, gong and ends with therapeutic percussion to welcome you back into the space.
