YogalaZouch, Craigavon Videos

Today I was invited along to lead some yoga for part of the Swadlincote Small business showcase family day out. It was so great to connect with some new local people and to be able to talk about this passion of mine which is Strala yoga. One of our regular yogis ‘Nicky’ has been coming to yoga since my first session back in Nov 2021. Nicky came along today to help out and share the message of local yoga in the community. This is what she had to say :)#stralayoga #StralaYogaAshby#YogaInLeicestershire#AshbyYoga#NorthWestLeicestershireYoga#DerbyshireYoga#LocalYogaClass#YogaCommunityAshby#StralaYogaLeics#MindfulMovementAshby#YogaNearMeAshby

Grateful we got to do our class outside today A little snippet of what we did at the start of class * “As we prepare for our practice, let’s set a personal intention. This could be a word, a feeling, or a goal that you’d like to bring into your practice today. It might be something like ‘more calm,’ ‘more joy,’ or ‘presence.’ Take a moment to find your intention and hold it in your mind.” Do you set intentions for your days? It’s pop up week next week, come and try a class out. #ashbydelazouch #stralayoga #outsideyoga #loveashby

It’s always a real treat to be able to lead yoga outdoors and today it happened again. Both chair yoga and yoga flow classes were warm enough to do the class amongst the lovely oak trees, listening to the sounds of the tweeting birds and enjoying the warmth on our faces. Total bliss :) One yogi said today ‘ it was just lovely to look up and see the leaves under the oak tree, It must have been there for a 100 plus years’! A quick google search suggests that ‘not only are oak trees resilient and stunning, but they also symbolise wisdom, courage, and endurance. The tree’s height, long lifespan, and deep roots ensure that it sees and experiences many events throughout its lifetime. They live between 200-1000 years! Blimey :) #YogaJourney #OutdoorYoga #yogaforbeginners #yogaashbydelazouch #yogalazouch #stralayoga #loveashby #yoganearme #nwleicestershire #southderbyshire #coalville #burton #tamworth #oaktrees

New online chair yoga class _ Sunday mornings at 9am book here at Www.yogalazouch.co.uk

Yes! The sun was shining this afternoon for our Sunday class! Finally :) the first class of the year we are able to get outside and do our feel good yoga :) The benefits of outside yoga? Outside yoga is about connecting with the world around you. Breathing in the fresh air, feeling the gentle breeze on your skin, and letting the sun energise your body and mind. Practicing yoga outside can enhance your mood, boost your vitamin D levels, and deepen your connection to the earth. What’s not to love :) 🌞🌿 #OutdoorYoga Our next class is in the 19th at 10. Fingers crossed for some more sun.

Hey everyone, Hope you’re all doing great! I took my daughter out for hot chocolate and cake a few days back and we found this lovely location which is in Moira village down the road, but I rarely go. it’s so beautiful at lakeside Bistro. I got chatting with the manager and expressed an interest in hosting some summer yoga here. So, I’ve been thinking about mixing things up for our Friday night yoga now that the days are getting longer and (sort of) warmer. Instead of our candlelit sessions, what do you think about trying out some Sunset Friday Night Yoga? I reckon it could be great to wind down the week while watching the sun go down? But, I want to make sure it’s something you’re into too. So, get in touch if you’re up for some sunset yoga vibes on Fridays possibly late May/June Take care sarah #lakesidebistro #sunsetyoga #yogaeastmids #ashbydelazouch #summeryoga #yogalazouch #nwleics

Another beautiful session done! 🌟 It was a pleasure to guide such wonderful souls through our yin and sound bath workshop. The positive feedback was warming, and I’m thrilled everyone had a lovely time immersing themselves in this rejuvenating experience. 🧘‍♀️ Yin Yoga: For those unfamiliar, yin yoga is a gentle yet profound practice that involves holding passive poses for extended periods, typically targeting the connective tissues and joints. It’s a meditative journey inward, promoting relaxation, flexibility, and a deep release of tension both physically and mentally. 🎶 Sound Bath: Now, onto the magical sound bath! 🎶 Picture yourself surrounded by soothing sounds from instruments like singing bowls, gongs, and chimes. As these vibrations wash over you, they help quiet the mind, reduce stress, and facilitate a state of deep relaxation and healing. It’s like a massage for your soul! The lovey Laura @soundhealinghearts made us all feel relaxed and at ease. And what better way to conclude our session than with a cup of tea amidst the tranquil grounds of St. Helens church🍵☀️ The sun was shining, the birds were singing—the perfect harmony to wrap up a fabulous event. Thank you to all who joined us on this journey of self-care and inner peace. 🙏 Watch this space for the next event.

Bali for yoga is truly amazing! I have just been to the most wonderful yin yoga class at @yogabarn. Have been wanting to come and try yoga at this magical place for years :) The Yoga Barn is known as one of the top wellness & yoga centers in the world, as an oasis for learning, self-discovery, wellness, healing, rejuvenation and inner transformation.

Quite a few people have asked me if I would do some chair yoga classes in the local community - the answer is now yes :) So what is chair yoga?? Chair yoga is a gentle and accessible form of yoga that adapts traditional poses to be performed while seated or using a chair for support. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with limited mobility, or those recovering from injuries. In chair yoga, participants engage in modified yoga postures, breathing exercises, and meditation techniques, all while seated comfortably. The practice offers numerous benefits, including improved flexibility, balance, and strength. It enhances joint mobility and reduces stiffness, making it an ideal option for individuals with physical limitations. Chair yoga also promotes relaxation, stress reduction, and mental clarity, fostering a sense of well-being. As a Strala yoga teacher, our classes will provide an inclusive and accessible option for a wider range of individuals, allowing to experience the physical and mental benefits of yoga in a supportive environment. Classes will start in the new year. Please get in touch for a space on the waiting list and to find out more :) [email protected]. Or if you know anyone that would benefit a chair yoga class please share :) #ashbydelazouch #chairyogasequence #chairyogaflow #chairyogapose #nwleicestershire #burtonontrent #swadlincote #coalville

Today is World Menopause day :) When I first became pregnant I read as many books as I could to educate myself, when I had my babies I read the books, when I had a toddler I read the books and then the parent books!! Life is a cycle! - These past six months I have read so many great books on the next stage of life ‘perimenopause’ As a lady in my 40s I have noticed changes in myself both physically and mentally. When I get together with friends of similar age the topic of conversation usually comes around to how are you feeling in terms of perimenopause symptoms? I think educating ourselves on this next stage of life is so important so we can go forward thriving with the knowledge. Over the past months I have followed so many great people who have so much info to share to equip you to understand what’s going on. if you are in this stage of life and it’s of interest, here are a few people who you might be inspired to follow @dr_naomipotter @menopause_doctor @lizearleme @davinamccall https://wearewellbeing.co.uk/insights/what-is-world-menopause-day/ #worldmenopauseday #menopausesymptoms #menopausia #womenshealth #women40plus #perimenopause #perimenopausesymptoms #perimenopausehealth #perimenopausesupport

Just got back from Lake Garda and had an amazing time practicing yoga tree poses in breathtaking locations! 🌳🧘‍♀️ The serenity of the lake and the surrounding nature made it the perfect setting to practice a tree 😉 Feeling grounded and refreshed after connecting with the beauty of the outdoors. 🌿 #LakeGarda #YogaInNature #TreePose

A bit of yoga fun whilst in Verona on holiday this half term. What a wonderful, beautiful city. #verona #veronayoga #arenaverona #julietteverona #treepose #treeposevariation
