Workshops
Yoga for Physical and Emotional Strength, Hebden Bridge
£50.00
Sunday 8th September 2019
11am to 4pm
This workshop will include very effective practices to develop core strength, whilst encouraging movement in the body and joints safely. Practices to address common postural issues will be explored, aligning the structural body and thereby releasing energy.
I will also be delivering a very special new therapeutic story as well as a new Nidra called 'Unbreakable'. Through the art of storytelling, Nidra and meditation we will be connecting to the part of us that cannot be wounded, burdened or traumatised .... the part of us that is by nature curious, connected, compassionate and calm ... the part of us which is the agent for psychological healing. So our focus will not just be physical strength ... it will also be soulular strength.
Whilst this workshop will be physically challenging in places, it is also accessible. Over the years I have found certain practices to be very effective in helping to awaken the body into alignment, strengthen powerfully, bringing greater ease of movement / flexibility.
This workshop is loaded with structural and emotional integrity and the intention is for you to leave this workshop feeling energised, empowered, vibrant, strong, alive and light!
£50 for the day, non refundable. Gillian donates 5% of all her earnings to Fight The New Drug.

Womb Yoga, Leeds

Sunday 15th September 2019
11am to 4pm
This workshop is for all women of all ages and stages of life. You either need to have a womb, or to have once had a womb.
If meditation is the gift of the head space, truth is the gift of the throat space,
love is the gift of the heart space ...... what is the gift of the womb space?
Womb Yoga is a way of practicing yoga that connects to our naturally arising cycles that we, as women, are biologically built to embody. Society, life and even our yoga practices often impose upon us in such a way that we are unable to connect to our blood wisdom, intuition, strength, creativity and spiritual authority. Womb Yoga opens the gateways to all of this.
The intention for this workshop is to provide a space wherein which we can honour our feelings, intuition, bodies, wisdom and authenticity, so that we may come home to ourselves and find a sense of belonging, from within.
£50 for the day, non refundable. Gillian donates 5% of all her earnings to Fight The New Drug. Om Yoga Works are also very generously donating 5% of their income for the workshop to Fight the New Drug. I am so grateful for their loving support and generosity.

This workshop means a great deal to me; as I begin to remember my own voice, I am grateful to share the soulful depths and courage it takes to allow ourselves to be heard. Therefore, if you would like to explore this in yourself but you feel nervous, there is an invitation for you to be silent for the whole workshop.
It is said that we have two ears and one mouth as a reflection of how much listening is required in relation to speaking .... so if you come to the workshop and need to stay silent and listen deeply within, you are very welcome. Or you can come and be loud, or anything inbetween!
We will be listening to a story about the power of the voice to make ourselves whole again. We will be practicing bhakti Nidra during which you will be sung to as you drop in Nidra. My beautiful antique singing bowls (one for each chakra) will be coming along!
We will also be exploring breathing techniques with sound, learning beautiful mantras both in Sanskrit and English, experiencing sound as meditation and also exploring how sound can be used in posture/movement (accessible to all) to create a beautiful yoga practice bringing deep connection to your essence/self. This can all be done in silence if you prefer, just allowing the sound of the others to be heard whilst you practice.
The intention for this workshop is for you to leave feeling deeply soothed, wholeand connected to your authentic voice.

Immerse yourself into the practice of Yoga Nidra.
We will be practicing various Yoga Nidras, including a nidra to strengthen intuition, bhakti nidra, a nidra called 'Unbreakable' which connects to the agent of psychological healing, a moving nidra (accessible to everyone), a storytelling nidra, as well as an ancient classical nidra.
We will explore various aspects of yoga nidra including sankalpa (heartfelt desire), the neuroscience behind nidra (why and how it works) as well as deepening our understanding of yoga nidra from a philosophical perspective.
The intention for this day is for it to be deeply restorative, therapeutic and soothing. It is a useful workshop for anyone interested in nidra (including beginners), as well as teachers wishing to deepen their knowledge.
