The Church Hall, Dyffryn Ardudwy, Gwynedd - Saturday 5th October 2024 - 11am = 1pm £25 including light refreshments

At times instead of being present in the moment and mindful about our daily lives, we can get stuck in our head, we overthink everything and struggle to be present with our sensations and emotions. When this happens we need to reconnect our body with our mind.

When we get out of our head and into our body we shift focus from the busy mind to the physical body. Yoga can help us by bringing the focus into the present moment and into the sensations within our body. By simply experiencing our bodily sensations, we lessen unproductive thinking and bring about more calmness.

MOVING & SENSING FROM THE INSIDE OUT

The Church Hall, Dyffryn Ardudwy, Gwynedd - Saturday July 8th 2023, 10am - 1pm £35 including drinks & homemade cake

Moving with ease, quality and softness is one of the greatest pleasures in Life. We will explore how our bodies can move with quality and ease, by going inward to experience a posture through slowing down to feel. In this way we create a rich sense of our own unique body in space. To emphasise this rechristen sense of movement I will be sharing the story of ‘The Blind men and the Elephant’
