Yoga Workshop-Mini Retreat at Calders Wharf E14 3PS
November 17th, Sunday 2.30-5.00pm
This workshop-mini retreat is designed to help you slow down during one of the busiest times of the year, releasing both physical and mental tension to recharge and keep going.
We’ll begin with breathwork to guide you inward, naturally encouraging relaxation.
Then we'll settle into a quiet space of Yin yoga poses, allowing time to soften and let go. It’s an invitation to explore, observe, and tune into the sensations of the body.
This is a great opportunity to slow down and unwind. In the midst of our busy lives, we often need a place to release the built-up tension we carry. Yin yoga focuses on floor-based postures, held for several minutes with the support of props. Through mindful bending and gentle movement, this practice can deeply refresh the body, mind, and heart, while also enhancing flexibility.
A guided meditation will teach more peacefulness and connectedness.
Long relaxation - Yoga Nidra at the end takes you to the “yogic sleep” - a state of consciousness between "waking and sleeping", induced by a guided relaxation practiced in a lying position. It's a total physical and mental rest.
Therapeutic benefits of yoga Nidra includes: a relief for stress, depression and anxiety, better sleeping patterns, the functioning of nervous and endocrine systems, cells regeneration, clarity of mind, good mood.
Tea and chat in our Sangha (community in Sanskrit) afterwards.
It’s a treat for your body and soul. You’ll leave feeling well stretched, relaxed, more balanced, peaceful and hopeful, confident and ready for new challenges.
It will be held in the big hall at the Calders Wharf, Dockland Settlements E14 3PS. It has views to the river and Cutty Sark in Greenwich (photos above).
Also streamed live on zoom.
You'll have an option to breathe natural essential oils, carefully selected according to the practice.
Candles, Tibetan bowl and relaxing tunes also will be used to enhance the experience.
Here are some yoga mat and props, but bring your own if you can, especially a blanket and a cushion to support your practice and to stay totally comfortable throughout the relaxing part.

"Your workshop was lovely and very relaxing! The way you structured the workshop was brilliant and each section flowed seamlessly into the next...
I was surprised that the two hours seemed to go by so quickly. I found the longer stretches very useful and the end relaxation was so relaxing I nearly fell asleep
