” In the space where my yesterdays are not reality anymore and the future is still a mystery… I am standing here silently and humble, in the timeless spaciousness between the dark and light… breathing in the miracle of this very moment… There… with the first sparkles of the dawn in my soul, a new day is being born.”

Daily Themes

Guided meditations at the start of the day can bring many benefits to your health and wellbeing. It supports you to set yourself up for the day ahead, whatever that may be. If you can get into a daily morning practice, even for a couple of minutes, you will be surprised at how much calmer, focused, energised and creative you feel for the rest of your day.

Yin Yoga is a floor based, very relaxing, yet deep practice where we hold poses for longer to get deeper into connective tissues and our energetic body, moving beyond the muscles.

Each day of this course will be based on a special theme reflected within yoga and meditation guidance:

Day 1 : ‘Let go’ Releasing Mindful Practice

Meditation ( 9.00-9.40 CET)

A moment to let go and relax into a deep space of stillness, where we invite the body and mind to totally relax.

Yoga (9.45 – 10.30 CET)

Letting go of tension through some gentle somatic (mindful) movement to open and connect to our breath through movement. Finding our stillness & Yin within.

Day 2 : Grounding in the Present

Meditation ( 9.00-9.40 CET)

We will continue to move into the present moment with tools to continue the practice throughout the day, in each moment, every breath.

Yoga (9.45 – 10.30 CET)

Embracing the art of going slow with Yin Yoga. Feeling, sensing and experiencing our practice – taking time in poses to fold inwards, become present and exploring the energetic (energy) body. Learning to meet the body where it is.

Day 3 : Opening Heart & Finding Strength through Vulnerability

Meditation ( 9.00-9.40 CET)

By connecting with our hearts we open to the opportunity to heal and refresh our energy and create space for new beginnings.

Yoga (9.45 – 10.30 CET)

Moving into the heart space to open, release, create space and let whatever arises to arise. Let the magic of movement and yin poses allow us to find strength to move deeper and become softer.

Day 4 : Embracing the Unknown

Meditation ( 9.00-9.40 CET)

In this meditation we will connect and understand the emotions and thoughts that hold us back to then embrace the unknown from a space of strength and love.

Yoga (9.45 – 10.30 CET)

In this final practice we’ll bring together the previous days into a lovely deep and nourishing session and find awareness and clarity. Feeling cleansed and ready for new beginnings – knowing we have all we need within us. Trusting our Yin

+ Wrap up session : Closing Circle & New Years Manifestation Meditation

(From 10.30 – 11.30 CET)

In a warm and supportive atmosphere, we will conclude this course and the year. Part of this closing circle will be a special guided meditation to release our wishes to the Universe and plant the seeds for a bright and prosperous future.

All sessions will be recorded and available to watch 48 hours after the live stream, so even if you could not always make it live, you will not miss a thing!
