Monthly New Moon Yoga

Whether we realise it or not we are all connected to the moon’s energies- everyone and everything.

The way you feel and the energy you have daily is all connected to it.

Why Moon Yoga?

Forget about the actual yoga poses or asana: beyond the movement, yoga allows us a moment to check in with ourselves, notice how our body feels and tune into the thoughts and sensations that come up for us.

When we practice yoga, we are physically moving energy around our body: blood will pump, you get a little warm, you release endorphins and feel-good hormones that create this all-over feel-good sensation in the body and mind.

This shifting of energy in the yoga practice is so important to allow you to remove any energies that might be stuck or stagnant in your body, which may be making you feel sluggish, tired and uninspired.

Our bodies are so clever and so full of wisdom, but they do need a little hand with the removal of unwanted emotions and feelings that we can’t shift.

We can use yoga to release and surrender so that we can move forward in a more balanced, clear- headed and harmonious way of life.

Equipment for these sessions will be provided. You may like to bring a journal/notebook- pen/pencil.

Soft, loose clothing is advised and bottle or water to stay hydrated.

It can be quite nice to have a piece of clothing, special item someone has given you, jewellery, crystals etc. to keep aside for this practice. It tells your body, mind and spirit that you are going to take some time for you and begin a sacred practice, bringing a sense of calm and clarity for heart, mind and body.

What to expect-

* A quiet, softly lit space to ‘just be’.

* An explanation about new moon cycles and yoga practice.

* A little gentle breath work.

* 1 pose practices (yin poses)

* Classes end with time for Shavasana to rest and receive the benefits from this practice.

* Yin yoga is slow paced as you create shapes with your body and hold them in stillness for a duration of time.

* Stillness can be the hardest part, this is totally normal and good, bear with it, keep practicing the stillness. It will help to quieten the body and mind.

"We will be more successful in all our endeavours if we can let go of the habit of running all the time and take little pauses to relax and re-centre ourselves. And we’ll also have a lot more joy in living."
