If you're looking for a new class to try this week or just a lil hour to yourself, come on down 💆‍♀️

We've got two lovely classes with Sarah tonight, and we'd love to see a few more faces 💛

🧘‍♂️ 6pm – Forrest Yoga Flow

Forrest Yoga Flow is the perfect balance of strength and flexibility. It's particularly good for anyone wanting to work on tightness, posture or simply feel more comfortable in their body. Sarah offers individualised guidance so you can find the movements that work for you.

🌙 7.15pm – Restorative Yoga

The ultimate midweek wind-down. Cosy blankets, bolsters, cushions and completely supported poses, held for several minutes at a time. There's no effort required, no stretching and nothing to keep up with. Just an hour to properly switch off, settle your nervous system and rest.

Both classes are welcoming and you don't need to have tried either style before.

Sarah is a wonderful teacher, and these Wednesday evenings deserve love! 🥰

Pendle Wellbeing Hub, Higherford Mill, Barrowford

✨️ If you're new to the studio, your first class is just £5 with code pendlehubwelcome.

Have you heard about our Halloween event? 👻

Halloween comes from Samhain (pronounced sow-en), an ancient Gaelic festival marking the end of the harvest and the beginning of the darker half of the year🌙

It's a time to honour those who came before us, reflect on the past year, prepare for the quiet winter months and get witchy!

Kirsty from Kirsty Donovan will guide you through a crystal bowl sound bath, candle magick, meditation and cacao.

An opportunity to do something a bit different this Halloween 🎃

You can book your place through https://pendlewellbeinghub.as.me/Samhain (the clickable link is in our bio) or the timetable.

Details: Saturday 31st October / 7.30–9pm / Pendle Wellbeing Hub, Higherford Mill / £17.50

Is this the best compliment to receive as a yoga/meditation teacher? 🤣

The second week in Discover Meditation is alllll about Yoga Nidra. It's a practice of ‘yogic sleep’, usually lying down, where we turn our attention inward and move through the body, relaxing each part in turn (and other stuff but I'm trying to keep this short).

We hover around that bit in between waking and sleep - hypnagogia. You might recognise similar modern practices such as NSDR and body scan relaxations.

Some participants said they felt like they were floating on clouds, or even being hypnotised 🌀

It seems like the easy one because it's not a seated meditation like Vipassana in Week 1 and it's more or less fully guided, but it's a practice with its own specific challenges.

It's normal to feel a resistance to total rest, to the whole practice or in certain parts of the body. Because we are usually unused to rest in our daily lives, we might feel guilt, we might feel vulnerable. Jerking, fighting it consciously or unconsciously. A little panic as we 'drop in' is so normal and just part of the practice. This resistance is to be observed, non-judgementally and lightly, and then move on. By observing lightly and with curiosity, we take the power from any 'why can't I relax' 'I wish I could chill' narrative and we can continue to practice the skill.

It's an ancient yogic practice, wrapped up in Ta***ic practices like nyāsa. In some traditions, sleep is personified as the goddess Nidrā or Yoga Nidrā.

In this gorgeous rest our heart rate lowers, our blood pressure lowers, we can slip into a parasympathetic 'rest and digest' place and it can make us feel that warm and fuzzy altered state. Like some drugs. Not that we'd know 🤔💊

What is Yin?
Yin Yoga is a style where you hold poses supported by bolsters or blocks for 3-5 minutes. The long holds allow your deep tissue and fascia to relax and stretch, releasing bodily & mental tension.

What is Yoga Nidra?
It translates to 'yogic sleep' and is also called 'NSDR / non-sleep-deep-rest' in sciencey circles. You're laid down under blankets for the whole duration while guided through a conscious relaxation of each part of the body.

These two practices work beautifully together to relax the nervous system & slow your heart rate, loosening up your body, making up for lost sleep & setting you up right.

Don't say we don't treat you 💖
