    The Silent Heart of Forgiveness is a part-silent one-day retreat designed to take you on a journey into a profound place of contemplation and healing.

    Together we will set our intentions, breathe, move, journal, meditate and surrender to the freedom that a forgiveness practice creates.

  • Deep Rest - Gentle Breathwork & Yoga Nidra

    Yoga Nidra is the union of relaxation, awareness, and self-discovery. It offers a profound opportunity for individuals to connect with their true essence, cultivate inner peace, and awaken to the limitless potential of their consciousness.

    The session includes some gentle breathwork and movement to help down-regulate the nervous system, followed by a fully guided Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep) - where we explore the brain waves and find the point of deep rest in the space between being fully awake and fully asleep.

    In-person class at Wise Moves Yoga Studio, Falcon.

    Second Friday of every month.

    Next offering: 13th December, 2024

    6:00pm-7:30pm

    Can you recognisie the signs of dysregulation in yourself and others?

    This workshop will give you the understanding and the practical experience to identify where you are on the regulation ladder in any given moment and empower you with strategies to overcome and prevent the stress response taking over your health and life!

    As the pressure builds towards the end of the year many of our young people are preparing for the end of year exams.
