Heartfelt offerings from us to you

​

While things aren't really as they were 18 months ago and something like the new-normal means classes and courses are now online, offline or a blend of both, the uncertainty can still be tiring.
​
As dedicated yoga and movement teachers, we are used to going the extra mile in supporting our own students and our local studios. We have likely reorganised our home to keep offering classes and workshops with all its attendant furniture shifting, hiding of laundry baskets, and praying that an unexpected door bell won't set the dog off!

And if  you are not a teacher, we know that you have done your best to find time and room to practice outside of your favourite studio and to support your favourite yoga teachers with your continued attendance onilne. Hopefully, you have been able to weave back in-person classes to your life too.

So as the darker, colder days and nights set in, we're offering another Care Package. There's a guided somatic check-in to help regulate your nervous system, some refreshing poetry, a prop-lite restorative practice recording for body-mind nourishment, and some creative journalling offerings. 
​
Let us know which of these gifts work for you, we'd love to hear from you.

PICK-ME-UP POETRY

We so often turn to the wisdom of poetry in our Barefoot Body trainings.

So we've curated a collection of refreshing, soothing poems that we've bound together in a digital pack for you to download and pore over.

We recommend reading with your favourite tea or coffee blend, and perhaps a biscuit (or two).  

RESTORATIVE YOGA

PRACTICE

Use this recorded 60 minute restorative practice to help regulate your nervous system and access some much-needed nourishment for body and mind.

If you don't have a cupboard full of props, you can use household items instead.

​

Here's what you'll need for this practice: 

​

• A yoga mat (or carpeted floor)

• A bolder (or 2-3 bed pillows/sofa cushions)

• 2 blankets (or 2 sofa throws/large bath towels)

• 2 blocks (or 2 large books with non-slip covers)

• An eye pillow (optional)

• 2 small bean bags (optional)

​

JOURNALING PROMPTS

Tap into your inner knowing with some reflective journaling. This practice may help you:

​

• discover what you need to meet each moment with more resilience

• learn how your yoga practice can support you through turbulent times

• understand where you can turn to within your community when you're feeling worn-out

Download our Twenty Quiet Questions pack and set aside some time for reflection.
