new moon yoga retreat day
tba
Join me for a wonderful day of yoga practices designed to help you feel nurtured and inspired. The New Moon is the point of least illumination in the lunar cycle; a time of reflection, dreaming, inspiration and creativity. Move mindfully through a Vinyasa Lunar Flow in the morning, bliss out on the bolster in the afternoon and rest deeply with guided relaxation at the end of both sessions. We gather together for connection and nourishment on the lovely mezzanine to enjoy a delicious four course vegetarian lunch. This New Moon Retreat Day takes place in the most stunning, spacious and bright venue in Kensal Rise and is open to all levels, from newbies to more experienced students.
the yoga sessions
During this New Moon Yoga Retreat Day you will enjoy two thoughtfully designed lunar yoga sessions. The Morning Session (120 mins) includes Lunar Breathing, Vinyasa Flow and Guided Relaxation. The Afternoon Session (90 mins) is a stiller practice of nurturing Restorative &/or Yin Yoga and Guided Relaxation. All practices are woven together with poetry, insight and inspiration.
colourful & seasonal food
Enjoy a delicious, vibrant, Vegetarian four course lunch after the morning practice. All 4 courses and afternoon treats are homemade by me - created from scratch using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Lunch and afternoon tea are served casually on the lovely bright mezzanine. All recipes are available after each retreat day so you can enjoy cooking them at home.
