Blissful Relax and Restore Yoga Evening

Last night Laura led a wonderful Yoga session.

As the weather had been so lovely, we spent the first hour in the garden concentrating on our grounding and breath, followed by some gentle yoga flow and restorative yoga.

The birds were singing so loudly, or perhaps it seems amplified when your eyes are closed and you are lying on the ground!

We came inside to get cosy with some lovely warming nutritious and delicious soup followed by chai lattes and cacao drinks.

By now the sun had set, the hall was lit with candles and the scent of large jugs of lilacs.

A gentle meditation flowed, and then the best bit, warming eye masks and a duvet for the yoga nidra and sound meditiation.

Thank you everyone for joining us and floating peacefully into the night.

Our next evening is on Tuesday 12 June, 7pm - 9:30pm, £30.

Book soon as places are limited and go very quickly.

Our upcoming Relax and Restore RETREAT DAY is on Saturday 16 June and has 4 spaces left.  11:30am - 4:30pm  £75

Relax & Restore Retreat Day

On Saturday we held another lovely and successful Relax and Restore Retreat day with Laura.

Despite the foul weather, we had a really happy and relaxing day.

The theme of the day was Eat The Rainbow, we enjoyed a delicious lunch with fresh and colourful ingredients

We enjoyed a heritage carrot, chickpea and sweet potato falafel traybake from this February's Good Housekeeping magazine.

Served alongside slow roasted tomatoes and a rainbow salad.

I really enjoyed making the pudding, a Beetroot and Chocolate Cake

This was served with dairy free ice cream and rainbow drops! 

The day was interspersed with Yoga and Meditation, some hatha and some restorative.

To tie in with the Rainbow theme, Laura explained about the Chakra system

We also had a session on wellbeing and juicing, where we tried a variety of juices and spoke about the benefits of some of the ingredients.

Our next Retreat is on Saturday 10 March.

The day runs from 11:30am - 4:30pm and costs £75.

Winter Wellbeing Relax & Restore Retreat Day

Laura and I had a fantastic time at our Relax & Retreat Day on Saturday

A great group of people, who came together to enjoy yoga, meditation, a delicious lunch, a mindful walk, hot tea and hot water bottles by the outside fire in the woods, a gut health and wellbeing talk, followed by making our own sauerkraut, finishing with some restorative yoga (stretching) and yoga nidra (sleeping snuggled under a blanket!)

Perfect 

The fire was lit and our yoga room was ready

Lunch followed, the pudding was a particular highlight!

Pear and Chocolate Flapjack Crumble

All our food is dairy free, gluten free and vegetarian, and we can also cook for vegans.

Healthy, warming and delicious.

It was such a sunny day, after lunch the frost had disappeared and everyone put on layers and layers and headed out into the grounds.

Laura took everyone down to the woods where we'd lit a fire with a circle of chairs around it.

Hot water bottles and herbal tea ....

Eyes closed ....

Laura lead a relaxing meditation

Heading back up to Treetops .....

Once dark, everyone relaxed their bodies and minds, all we could hear was the fire crackling; it was a great end to the day.
