Yoga Nidra Workshop £10.00
Come back to yourself in this body-mind restoration Yoga Nidra where you can experience the technique in person. Yoga Nidra is a guided relaxation that you listen to as you rest in a totally supported posture. This can be lying down or sitting, or reclining. We use lots of cushions, bolsters and blankets to ensure we are fully supported in our posture, so that we can deeply let go at a pace that suits us.

Daytime yoga classes
We are currently looking for a venue in Allestree. If you know of a large warm room to hire please contact me
If you're looking for daytime yoga classes, our morning class will suit you perfectly. Dynamic yoga is a deeply sensitising practise which brings awareness to the relationship between the body parts as you move gently between postures. All postures are easily adaptable, and the focus is on what you can feel rather than what you can do (or what the mind thinks you can do).
These classes are suitable for any age and any body. Variations are always provided. Anyone ...
Facial Reflexology
Having a facial reflexology treatment can be especially luxurious. This amazingly relaxing therapy is a treatment for anyone. It makes a wonderful gift for someone who deserves a bit of pampering. It can be ideal if the client is not happy with people touching their feet or hands.
Facial Reflexology is based on the principle that the face contains reflexes through the ten zones of the body, exactly like foot reflexology. It brings deep calm and relaxation to the client, helping them to de-stress and let go. On top of this, the facial skin, circulation and lymphatic system ...
Yoga Nidra
We are currently looking for a venue in Allestree for group yoga classes. Please contact me if you are aware of a large warm room locally
Yoga Nidra is loosely translated as 'Yoga-Sleep; since yoga means union of the body-mind, therefore 'union of the body and mind in a deeply relaxed state'. The practise is quite simple. Lying down or sitting supported, so that you can totally relax, all you need to do is listen and feel.
It is a different technique to a meditation, and it is not a trance. You are very safe. You may fall asleep, and although this is not the aim, it can ...
Meditation
There are so many different types of meditation. Some contain movement; some contain stillness. Some have breathing practices; some have visualisations. Some have eyes open, some closed. The common element is focus.
Key benefits of regular meditation include: stress reduction, sleep improvement, sense of wellbeing, less emotional ups and downs, increased resilience, better concentration, clearer thought patterns.
As the mind stills, with regular meditation practice, it is able to recognise when it is wandering, catastrophising and creating drama. At this point we can ...
EFT (emotional freedom techniques)
Imagine having a personalised toolbox for dealing with stressful situations at the touch of your finger... well you have! I will show you how to overcome issues you are experiencing or have experienced, or even are yet afraid to experience. The world of 'tapping' is at your fingertips.
Tapping, or Emotional Freedom Techniques consists of tapping on your face and upper body whilst repeating parts of a previously coined 'set-up' statement. Tapping points are pre-set and tapped in a specific order, to stimulate the meridians and allow the issue to be released or challenged, ...
Reflexology
What is Reflexology?
You may have heard people talking about this complementary therapy, but actually are unsure what is reflexology. I will attempt to describe it for you here. Reflexology is a special kind of massage on the feet, hands or face.
Points and areas are pressed and gently held or 'finger-walked' to balance and soothe the body. This brings about a deep state of relaxation and encourages homoeostasis. I work with a gentle, but not light, pressure, which can also vary as I move around your feet.
Over 7000 nerve endings are in the feet alone. Based on ...

Reflexology for Baby Loss or Miscarriage
Having reflexology for baby loss or miscarriage can offer you a comfort in your time of grief. Sometimes, through reasons we may not understand, some of us will miscarry a pregnancy at some point in our lives.
It can be an extremely difficult time, coming to terms with feelings about the baby we barely knew. Healing the body and mind is a lifelong journey. Sadly there may also be times when we have had to say goodbye to our baby or child of any age. The loss is physical as well as emotional.
Reflexology may support us through the grieving process and may help us to come ...
