The workshop series focused on deep exploration of the internal landscape - progressively letting go, mapping the internal physical space and, in this session, exploring ourselves as beings intrinsically in relationship to gravity.

In this experiential practice, you are led through a series of restorative practices and inquiries to uncover your own intrinsic...
2020-08-211h 29Yoga by Nature PodcastHatha Yoga Class for Back CareSpinal health is key in yoga practice. All movement originates in the spine and eventually feeds back to the spine. The spine influences our posture and the health of our internal systems. It is the channel through which the nerves pass in order to broadcast information throughout the body, like a radio mast. According to the ancient texts, the spine houses the central energy channel(shushumna nadi) through which Kundalini (awakening energy) flows to connect us with our higher consciousness. So here's a little something to help you keep it in shape. We all benefit from postures t...

This class is one that I recorded over the weekend for the teacher trainees on the Yogafurie teacher training programme in Bristol.

Instead of savasana we end with a mindfulness meditation on the sounds. This class is intended as a support to the trainees on the Yogafurie course but it can also be enjoyed by anyone who wants to try a yoga and mindfulness class. No props...

This is the last class for a while. The sound quality isn't wonderful but it's doable - I played the episode on my computer and it was ok but you may want to play it through some better speakers.
This one weaves kindness into practice and explores the three states of human experience - achieving, threat and soothing. Kindness is in the last one - "soothing" - which is the state we try to cultivate in yoga. It's a PRACTICE so don't be put off if you don't get it straight away. The D...

This is a twenty minute meditation on the body. It's not strictly a relaxation but it is very relaxing! I often do this instead of having a nap as it's so refreshing and brings me right back into my body especially if I have been doing a lot of heady computer work.
Just lie down somewhere quiet and comfortable and enjoy it! You can do it seated if you like to do these sessions during your commute or during your lunchbreak, but lie down if possible.

Welcome to this podcast. Inspiration for this class was taken from Judith Lasater's fantastic book about yogic living called Living Your Yoga. I've also magpied a bit from Mark Williams' book Mindfulness, and the rest is from me. This was recorded at Arnos Vale Spielman Centre, Bristol.
Being a Yoga and Mindfulness class, there is more talking at the begining than usual as I unpack the theme a bit. It's roughly 4 mins of intro, so if you'd rather skip to the asana class, I won't be offended. The chat is mainly about sthira sukham a...

Thanks for listening. This is another yoga nidra practice, I recorded it at the Penny Brohn Cancer Care Centre in Bristol with my lovely PB ladies who love yoga.
With this one there is a visualisation so you may go quite deep. Yoga Nidra is more than a relaxation - you are going deep into your consciousness and contacting the subconscious at its deepest level, so after practicing make sure you don't have to drive a car or do anything that requires alertness. It can take some time to come back!

Here is a deep relaxation for you that I recorded at Penny Brohn Cancer Care in Bristol.

There are some yoga nidras I have been doing for years and I am still discovering new bits I had previously slept through without realising!
