Course Description:
The Yoga Therapy for the Mind eight-week course is designed for individuals looking to improve their well-being or those dealing with chronic stress, mild to moderate depression, and anxiety disorders.Whilst Yoga Therapy can be helpful in the management of symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), severe depression and severe mental health difficulties, this course is not appropriate for such difficulties and instead private sessions are recommended so as to be able to tailor an approach on a more individual basis.
In order to be sure that the course will be suitable and is aligned to what you'd like to work on, Veena will send, via email, a client form to complete prior to attending the 8-week course.
Bookings will close 2 weeks before the course starts for the forms to be reviewed.*Please note MoreYoga Tokens do not apply to courses & all sales are final - we do not offer refunds on courses once purchased due to limited number of spaces on offer*Course Overview:
Yoga Therapy for the Mind is an 8-week course developed as a complementary therapy to support those experiencing depression, anxiety, and stress related issues.The course draws on ancient yoga principles and mindfulness meditation techniques that are the foundation ofMindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) one of the fastest growing newer therapies for depression in the UK. Students meet once a week for two hours, exploring the body-mind connection through asanas, pranayama, and restorative properties of mindfulness with psychotherapeutic holding.
More recent scientific research continues to affirm that depressed mood, anxiety, and stress are best treated with a method that addresses both the physiological and psychological dimensions. Yoga naturally works with these various elements. Students are taught practises to regulate mood, rebalance the nervous system, and engage less with unhelpful thought patterns, learning how to use the mind to heal the body and the body to heal the mind - building resilience for both short- and long-term wellbeing.
In the first two weeks of the course students are taught how to regulate and understand mood through breath. Next, they learn how to understand emotional health through the body, and finally through the mind. Each session of the course offers cumulative skills which help students to both become aware of and make helpful changes in their mind body system. In a variety of asanas students learn how to coexist equally with both comfortable and uncomfortable physical sensations. By learning how to be with various sensations in the body they develop greater tolerance to be with various thoughts in a gentle way with less resistance
Students are given homework and reading material to help integrate yoga and mindfulness practice into their daily life. At the close of each session there is an optional discussion space for students to talk about their experiences during class and how to use what they learn when facing the challenges of daily living. Additionally, there is opportunity before and after sessions for brief private discussion with the therapist.All levels of yoga and meditation are welcome. Research by Veena Ugargol found participants showed significant improvement in anxiety and mild depression compared to a control group.

2:00pm - 4:00pm (120 min)Sally T.12 of 23 openNourish yourself in a revitalizing two-hour experience that blends the gentle, meditative practice of Yin Yoga with the deeply restorative power of a Crystal Sound Bath. This workshop is designed to guide you into a state of deep relaxation, inner peace, and bliss.
Yin Yoga:
Our first hour begins with Yin Yoga, where poses are held for 3-5 minutes while supported with props. This practice targets the deeper connective tissues, promoting flexibility and joint health while encouraging a meditative mindset. Suitable for all levels, Yin Yoga offers a chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and connect with your inner self.Crystal Sound Bath:
After the Yin Yoga practice, you’ll be guided through a short meditation before being enveloped in the soothing soundscape of crystal bowls. This promotes deep relaxation, stress release, and energetic balance. The harmonious frequencies will help clear your mind, enhance meditation, and support overall well-being.Join me, Sally Talal, for "Harmonious Healing" and experience the perfect blend of Yin Yoga and Crystal Sound Bath to rejuvenate your body, mind, and spirit. Whether you’re looking to unwind after a busy week or seeking a deeper connection to yourself, this workshop offers a sanctuary of tranquility and rejuvenation.

2:00pm - 4:00pm (120 min)Darren W.8 of 30 open
Between each pose, there’s a breath of possibility — a space where cues give way to creativity. In this workshop, we’ll explore the idea of “negative space” in two ways:
The negative space between shapes where you move from one pose to another
The negative or “floating” phase of movement when you’re momentarily suspended in airThrough guided practice, you’ll learn how to build the strength and body awareness needed to transition from up to down with lightness and control. Transitions taught include floating, jump-throughs, jumping to Crow and other arm balances and handstands into Warriors.
The workshop will include:
A breakdown of the biomechanics of floating and how to resist gravity
Drills to strengthen your shoulders, lats and core and develop deep core compression
Breath exercises to support and control your movement in air
A transition lab to teach and explore movement between poses
For those who wish to explore further, we’ll also look at more advanced arm balances (like Koundinyasana II, Tittibhasana and Astavakrasana) and handstand transitions, with partner support.

2:00pm - 4:00pm (120 min)Michael P.8 of 30 openJoin Michael Peck for an immersive workshop designed to help you release stress, restore balance, and reset your nervous system through the powerful practices of Yin Yoga and Tension & Trauma Release Exercises (TRE®). This 2-hour session is crafted to provide deep relaxation and support the body's natural ability to discharge tension, regulate the nervous system, and improve resilience to stress.
In this workshop, we'll begin with a grounding Yin Yoga sequence, focusing on deep, passive stretches that allow you to release tightness in the connective tissues. Yin poses encourage stillness, patience, and breath awareness, promoting relaxation and preparing the body for deeper work.
Following the Yin practice, we’ll transition into TRE® – a series of gentle, guided exercises developed to safely trigger the body's natural tremoring mechanism, which helps release stored tension and trauma from the muscles and nervous system. TRE® is effective for stress reduction, relaxation, and restoring a sense of calm and ease.
This session is open to all levels, including beginners. It’s ideal for anyone seeking tools to manage stress, support emotional balance, and experience a renewed sense of well-being.

2:00pm - 4:00pm (120 min)Maria L.10 of 20 openCacao & Gong Ceremony
Take a pause in your day to reconnect and recharge with this grounding and restorative afternoon ceremony combining the heart-opening effects of cacao with the soothing power of sound.
We begin by sharing a cup of ceremonial-grade cacao, a natural plant medicine known to gently lift mood, increase focus, and open the heart. Cacao is rich in magnesium and theobromine, helping to boost energy levels while promoting calm and clarity.
Once the cacao takes effect, you’ll be guided into a gong sound journey — a deeply relaxing experience that uses sound and vibration to calm the nervous system, ease tension, and bring the mind into stillness. The resonance of the gong supports emotional release and helps the body return to a balanced state.
This afternoon session is ideal for anyone seeking relaxation, stress relief, or a gentle reset before the evening.
What to expect:
• Introduction to cacao and its benefits
• Guided cacao meditation
• Gong sound bath and deep relaxation
• Gentle closing and integration

Next, they learn how to understand emotional health through the body, and finally through the mind. Each session of the course offers cumulative skills which help students to both become aware of and make helpful changes in their mind body system. In a variety of asanas students learn how to coexist equally with both comfortable and uncomfortable physical sensations. By learning how to be with various sensations in the body they develop greater tolerance to be with various thoughts in a gentle way with less resistance
Students are given homework and reading material to help integrate yoga and mindfulness practice into their daily life. At the close of each session there is an optional discussion space for students to talk about their experiences during class and how to use what they learn when facing the challenges of daily living. Additionally, there is opportunity before and after sessions for brief private discussion with the therapist.All levels of yoga and meditation are welcome. Research by Veena Ugargol found participants showed significant improvement in anxiety and mild depression compared to a control group.

Theme: ‘Expression’ a celebration of happiness, resilience and authenticity.A space to explore how expression shows up through the body, movement, voice, and sensation. Using breath-led movement and reflective practices, we’ll explore expression as listening, and the experience of sharing space with others, held by a supportive community.
How do we recognise when something is ready to be expressed? And what becomes possible when expression is met with care?
This 2-hour workshop will begin with brief introductions, followed by a 60-minute yoga and meditation practice guided by the session’s theme. We’ll then take a break to share tea, cake, and conversation, before closing with guided journaling and time for reflection.

Join David Steer to explore a space of self-awareness, connect to others and find joy within a supportive and inclusive community. This is an open space to practice and bring queerness into well-being.

Course Description:
The Yoga Therapy for the Mind eight-week course is designed for individuals looking to improve their well-being or those dealing with chronic stress, mild to moderate depression, and anxiety disorders.Whilst Yoga Therapy can be helpful in the management of symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), severe depression and severe mental health difficulties, this course is not appropriate for such difficulties and instead private sessions are recommended so as to be able to tailor an approach on a more individual basis.
In order to be sure that the course will be suitable and is aligned to what you'd like to work on, Veena will send, via email, a client form to complete prior to attending the 8-week course.
Bookings will close 2 weeks before the course starts for the forms to be reviewed.*Please note MoreYoga Tokens do not apply to courses & all sales are final - we do not offer refunds on courses once purchased due to limited number of spaces on offer*Course Overview:
Yoga Therapy for the Mind is an 8-week course developed as a complementary therapy to support those experiencing depression, anxiety, and stress related issues.The course draws on ancient yoga principles and mindfulness meditation techniques that are the foundation ofMindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) one of the fastest growing newer therapies for depression in the UK. Students meet once a week for two hours, exploring the body-mind connection through asanas, pranayama, and restorative properties of mindfulness with psychotherapeutic holding.
More recent scientific research continues to affirm that depressed mood, anxiety, and stress are best treated with a method that addresses both the physiological and psychological dimensions. Yoga naturally works with these various elements. Students are taught practises to regulate mood, rebalance the nervous system, and engage less with unhelpful thought patterns, learning how to use the mind to heal the body and the body to heal the mind - building resilience for both short- and long-term wellbeing.
