As we move into autumn, nature begins to slow down, let go and draw its energy inward.

Maybe we need a bit of that too.

Join us every Tuesday evening at Springbank Manor Hotel in Darwen for an hour of gentle Autumn Zen Yoga, breathwork and mindful relaxation.

These sessions are designed to help you slow down, release some of the tension you have been carrying and reconnect with your body before we move into the darker winter months.

We will use gentle, accessible movement to open the chest and shoulders, stretch and soften the body, breathe more deeply and create a little more space physically and mentally.

You can expect:

• Gentle Zen Yoga and mindful movement

• Breathwork to help settle the body and mind

• Practices to release tension and help you slow down

• Seasonal movement inspired by the qualities of autumn

• Time to reconnect with your body and your energy

• A calming mindful relaxation to finish

Zen Yoga is not about being flexible, getting into complicated positions or pushing your body.

It is about learning to listen to your body, work with it rather than against it, and use movement, breath and awareness to support your overall wellbeing.

There is much more behind the practice that we will explore together as the weeks progress, including the traditional seasonal wisdom that informs Zen Yoga. You do not need to know any of that before you arrive.

Just come as you are.
