The REVIVE & RESTORE day promises to soothe your mind, stimulate your natural immune system and generate deep relaxation and natural flow.

A blend of vinyasa yoga, pranayama, meditation and gong bath will replenish your reserves for the Winter months ahead; aligning you with the seasonal changes that are occurring naturally through light, mood, temperature and rhythm.

Through movement, breath work and sound the body will be reminded that its ok to slow down, and in doing so natural defences will wake up and the body and mind will feel balanced, refuelled and relaxed.

Surrender to a day of gently unwinding and allow Lizzy, Anna and Ali to guide you in to a place of alignment, by connecting deeply with each of these nourishing practices.

We provide a warming Winter soup, bread and teas. You are also welcome to bring a vegetarian dish or snacks to share.

Vinyasa yoga with Lizzy:

The morning yoga practise will gently warm up the body, beginning the journey inward using the vehicle of conscious breathing linked with movement. The practise will be suitable for all levels of ability, Lizzy offers detailed alignment queues, enabling each individual to find the essence of the pose that best suits their body. Movement with greater awareness will prepare both body and mind on the path toward mediation and deep relaxation.

Pranayama & meditation with Anna:

Anna offers you a deep pranayama practice; learning the art of breathing for health and well-being. The technique of controlling our breath, Pranayama, is an age-old method for altering our breathing movements intentionally to yield specific results. Meaning “breath control” or “extension of the prana”, pranayama is an integral part of the yogic discipline that originated in India a few thousand years ago. You will learn some simple breathing techniques that can be easily practiced at home so that your immune system isn’t compromised during the Winter months. You will also learn the art of slowing down the chaos in the mind with just a few breaths to help with insomnia, anxiety and negative thoughts. This will lead on to learning the art of meditating on the breath to dissolve negative habit patterns of the mind leading to greater happiness, joy and a freer, truer self.

Gong bath ceremony with Ali:

We are composed of vibration, in connection to the universe around us. Sacred sound restores our sense of physical, emotional, mental and spiritual harmony. After a day of moving and breathing there is nothing more to do than get snug, set your intention and surrender into the waves of healing sound. Ali guides you on a journey towards wholeness, through voice, conch shell, large symphonic & planetary gongs, singing bowls, crystal bowls, elemental sounds & shruti box.
