Thank you everyone for your presence tonight. It felt like a really special Nidra.

You are exactly where you need to be.

Yoga Nidra is not about trying to stay awake. It is about resting in awareness, allowing yourself to simply be. Whether you remain awake, drift between waking and sleeping, or even fall asleep, the practice is still working. Sometimes, if sleep comes during Yoga Nidra, it may simply be your body and mind receiving exactly what they need in that moment.

Hari Om 🙏🏼

My next online Sunday Nidra is on 25th October at 8pm UK time. Please note this is an hour earlier than usual while we are on winter time.
Whether you're a regular or completely new to Yoga Nidra, you'll be warmly welcomed.
Just one session can help ease stress, improve sleep, calm the nervous system, and leave you feeling rested, restored and recharged. Many people also notice greater clarity, creativity and emotional balance.
Everyone is welcome. Contribute what feels right for you.

In one of our classes this week we talked about digestion and posture, and how the way we sit when we eat can have a bigger impact on our wellbeing than we might think.
A few things to think about:
• Sit close to the table so you don't have to lean or hunch forward.
• Try to sit upright, with your head, shoulders and hips in line.
• If you don't have a table, and are eating from the sofa, use cushions for support and keep your feet on the floor if possible.
• Sit close to your food so you don't need to lean forward.
• Stay upright for 10-20 minutes after eating to help digestion.
• Avoid tight clothing around your tummy.
• Eat in good light and try to slow down and enjoy your meal.
• Avoid talking while chewing.
• Bring a little awareness to how you're sitting and eating, and take time to appreciate your food.

Notice your posture at mealtimes and see if a few small changes make a difference.

Around this time last year I visited the beautiful Shri Swaminarayan Mandri in London and was fortunate enough to attend a service . An experience that felt peaceful and uplifting.
The temple is made from Italian and Indian marble. Hand carved in India before making its journey to London.
The golden man is Pramukh Swami Maharaj.
Obviously no photos inside, but luckily he didn't mind a photobomb outside 🙏🏼

Sharing ❤️
The last couple of days in yoga have been deep and meaningful, and they've left me reflecting.
Losing my Mum threw me into the deepest grief. But the hardest part wasn't only her absence; it was the total silence from my father, who lives right down the road. No message. No visit. Just the loudness of silence.
And somewhere inside, that little inner child still hoped that maybe, when I turned 50 last year, there might be a simple “Happy Birthday.” But there wasn't.
In yoga, we talk about Aparigraha — non-attachment, letting go, releasing what we cannot control.
My practice right now is dropping the rope.
Letting go of the waiting. Letting go of hoping for acknowledgment from people who choose silence. Not because it doesn't hurt, but because I don't want to keep giving my energy to something I cannot change.
Instead, I'm learning to pour that love back into myself, and into the people who show up, who care, and who are there for one another.
And then, over the last couple of days, a beautiful reminder of why we do this.
One lovely lady reached out and opened up. She shared something personal, and it reminded me that sometimes creating a little space, being present and simply listening can mean more than we realise.
Isn't this what yoga is about too?
Not just the postures, but connection. Making space. Supporting each other. Being there when someone needs it.
So maybe today, reach out. Step up. Ask someone how they really are. Give someone a hug. 🤗
You never know what someone is carrying.
What are you holding onto?
Inhale love.
Exhale the heavy s**t.
Repeat as necessary. 🤍

This week we have a midweek Nidra.
A 40min practice for deep relaxation and healing.
No prior meditation experience is needed. Simply relax, listen, and allow yourself to be guided.
