From meditation practice this morning:
To see the world as burning is the first step in your transformation. It is the lamp you pick up as you begin to find a new way. Use the lamp of meditation to look at your life, the transitory nature of your body, and to discover the eternal treasure that lives WITHIN. To pick up the lamp is to begin life in which you cast light on the things you hadn’t wanted to see✨ ~ Priya Hemenway ✨

Repeat after me:
To meet ourselves through our bodies and to live our lives with their ancient knowing, is to come into deep relationship with our innate wholeness.
This in itself is an act of resistance. As we subvert the cultural narrative of needing to consume more. Do more and be more. And instead rest back into that which we already have and are.

A freeform movement journey: moving meditation. A safe & sacred container to find freedom in expression and let go of lingering tension and stagnant energy.
Connect to your inner world & rebirth through movement. Step into 2023 anew. This is not a dance class!! This is a free form movement experience for expression, catharsis, and release.

The Gong is a powerful healing tool, all you need to do is relax and let the sounds take you on your own dreamy journey.
Please arrive just before 7pm to give yourself plenty of time to get comfortable. Please bring a comfortable mat, blanket & pillow to keep you warm during the hour of meditation.
We will start by taking a few deep breaths and taking time to relax into the space before emersing our minds, bodies & souls in the powerful sound waves of the gongs and singing bowls.
The cost of this session is £15 in advance.
Please contact me to book your space or if you would like more information. 07969 564 528 or email me at [email protected]

In Paula’s words:
I absolutely love creating flows …. but really the true magic happens when it comes to sharing them….. allowing space for each person to drop into their own energy, adapting and adjusting the sequence so it unfolds in its own unique way each time …
also, if you just need space to lie down for an hour then that is perfectly fine too! 💚

Dear Sangha 🤍
We are approaching the closing of this transformational year with a heart full of gratitude and appreciation.
Thank you for being here.
Sharing below a sweet poem that has been kept close to us this year:
Freedom, make a home in me
Untamable like the wind
And wild horses
Ravish me back to the original blueprint
I pray to make less sense
And more magic
Let the intangible move me into strange shapes
It is never too late
To become who we are
I heard a whisper in the wind that
Magic does not live in the extraordinary
She lives in our retinas and in the tunnel of our ears
So I will get to spring cleaning,
remove the curtain of consciousness that prevents me from seeing the beauty in everything.
~ Ebyan Zanini ✨
We are All looking forward to welcoming you back in for inspiration, support and a sense of belonging.
Our regular classes and events resume next Tuesday, January 3rd.
Stay close, dear Friends.
With love,
Alex/ Xanda & The Yoga Barn família 🤍

Saturday life lesson from Baba Ram Dass 🤍:
When I start thinking, “I’m Ram Dass, and I’ve worked on myself, and I’m supposed to be equanimous, loving, present, clear, compassionate, accepting,” oftentimes I get tired, I get angry and petulant, and I close down. For a long time, I’d get into those states and I would feel really embarrassed because that isn’t who Ram Dass is "supposed" to be.
So I would appear like I was warm, charming, equanimous, compassionate, and there were deviousness and deception involved. Then I realized that’s bad business because that cuts us off from one another… and I had to risk my truth. I had to risk being human with other people and realize that what we offer each other is our truth, and our truth includes all of our stuff.
The first thing I had to do was accept my own truth. I had to allow myself to be a human being.
Now, what I found was that as I started to allow myself to be more human, just allowed what I am, things changed much faster in me. I mean, things fell away more quickly. It was as if I was locked into a model which was based on that negativity, that dislike of myself; and once I just allowed myself to be human, with all the foibles, things started to flow, and I could feel a change occurring in myself.
Then, I started to experience my own beauty and it frightened me because it was so dissonant and discrepant from the model that I had cultivated of myself over the years. The dissonance between the idea that I had to do good in order to be beautiful and that idea that I just am… and that what is, is in its own way beautiful. ~
Ram Dass✨

I find one vast garden spread out all over the universe. All plants, all human beings, all higher mind bodies are moving in this garden in various ways, each has his own uniqueness and beauty.

Next Women’s Circle -
Weds 30th November 6pm at The *New* Yoga Barn with
Single tickets and Bring A Friend tickets available. Link in our bio to book and for more info 💫
We heal and help when we listen with our heart
No, we do less than that
We wait and are attentive when we listen, when we listen
What if we were to listen without solution, listen without meaning, listen without objective
I objectify you when I try and heal you
I subjectify you when I try and help you
I want both you and I to be less than that
Less formed, tangled in our unknowing, helpless in our being here
I want to be with you until I can see your lips moving without hearing your words
At least then I can know that I am you
And I can try and figure out that the words you are saying, I have heard before, they are coming from my own being, my own heart, the centre, the core
I could see that someone else is listening to us, observing us
Not to our problems, our challenges our dilemmas
But to the sound of our lips moving, how they look when they part, when they move, when they quibble
True Objectification
True Subjectivity
True witnessing, the way we are always wanted to be Seen.
Beautiful words by Katie Abbott - Thank you for letting me share your perfect and poignant words on being seen and heard

✨Ecstatic Dance ~ return to self ✨
with
Friday
Dec 2nd
7.30 ~ 9 pm
A freeform movement journey! We come together in a safe and sacred container to find freedom in expression – this is *not* a dance class! This is dance as a form of therapy, emotional catharsis, and dance as a spiritual practice. You are invited to let go of judgements and expectations as we join together to access altered states of consciousness through embodied practice. During this 90 minute session we use music and movement to find a meditative state, come deeply into our bodies, and get in touch with our liberated Self.
*What to bring/wear?*
Dress to sweat! Comfy clothes that allow your full range of motion. Bring some water. Most importantly, bring an open mind, curious spirit and a body ready to dance!
For bookings please contact ✨
