Relax the body to relax the mind. Simple and easy restorative and yin yoga postures, breathing practice, simple meditation, and Yoga Nidra. Find a little bit more comfort. Postures are adjusted to suit you.

Our breath is the bridge between our body and mind. It can either calm us or depower us. One of the easiest ways to feel better is through the breath. Re-learning to breathe is our second step to finding our inner calm.
-
Release on the outbreath. When life is tough we hold so much tension. Just by finding ways to release tension (physical and mental) we can feel ourselves in a different place. To be and do more, sometimes we just need to release what we are holding, one breath at a time.
-
Let go of effort and discover silence and stillness. Flow this mental and physical rest into lovely calm. You’ll take this imprint of calm with you because you are retraining the brain to let go and rest - anywhere, anytime.
-
Create your own lovely home practice. Choose elements of meditation, breath work, restorative and yin yoga, Yoga Nidra recordings, and other discoveries. Practice at home, the car, at work - even on the loo!

Mind Rest (Yoga Nidra)
Tuesdays.
Most of us are over stimulated, much of the time. It’s go, go, go. We just can’t maintain that state - we weren’t designed for modern stresses. Yoga Nidra offers you a moment away from full-on-ness and into a deep experience of calm: into the subtler side of ourselves. This is done by relaxing the body and systematically reducing physical and mental tensions. The brain shifts down a gear or two. Not only experience beautiful calm, but reduce your risk of stress-related illness. This special, ancient yoga practice is practiced lying down, listening to a guided voice. It’s not magic or woo woo — it’s a scientifically proven peaceful practice where you are guided to simply let go into deep relaxation. BeCalmed Studio classes offer an eight-stage Yoga Nidra practice. Classes are also available online.
