About

This class will involve the three 'M's' - Movement, Mindfulness and Meditation. The first, movement, will involve gentle Yoga poses which stretch the body, ease tension and shed the body's restlessness. The second, mindfulness, will entail Pranayama (breathing) exercises which require drawing the senses inward, focusing on the breath and guiding the mind to a single point of focus. The first two steps prepare the body and mind for the third, meditation. The majority of time will be spent in guided meditation. Age: 18+
