This workshop is designed to provide space to explore TRE®.  This body based practice safely activates a natural reflex mechanism of shaking, or vibrating, that releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system.  When this shaking/vibrating mechanism is activated in a safe and controlled environment, the body is encouraged to return back to a state of balance.  

An introduction to 5Rhythms® Waves with Ben Deutsch

Want to move more freely, more consciously, more joyfully? This evening workshop with accredited 5Rhythms® teacher Ben Deutsch will be a space to re-connect with our bodies and to offer ourselves the freedom we crave. Using some simple exercises, well chosen music, intuition, and a dash of humour, Ben will hold space for the group to move individually and together.

Through movement, we will explore qualities of fluidity, clarity, surrender, ease and presence.

We welcome you to join our beautiful sacred space of gentle, restoring Yin yoga and Sound Bath session. We will combine the deep, meditative practice of yin yoga with the healing frequencies of sound.  

Laughter and play are powerful well-being activities for the body and mind.
In this workshop I will take you on an exploration of laughter where you will discover ways to play with it, embrace it and see what is there when you open yourself up to being more playful. It's a wonderful invitation to cultivate your own innate sense of joy.

Laughter changes our body chemistry and mindset. It’s energising yet relaxing and a wonderful way to relieve stress, release stuck emotions and bring clarity to the mind.

This immersive workshop offers a unique opportunity to experience the benefits of both sound healing and massage in a serene, therapeutic and calming environment. The session is designed to calm the mind, release physical tension, using a combination of soothing sounds and skilled touch.

Amy uses sound healing including gong, crystal bowls and other instruments for the sound bath. Creating a relaxing atmosphere the sound and vibrations wash over you whilst you bathe in sound.
