Connect to the self, through Buddhist meditation, Somatic release, meditative walking and sound journeying.

Connect to the self, through Buddhist meditation, somatic release, meditative walking and sound journeying. ( Maximum 15 attendees ).

The day will start with a warm welcome and check-in (teas and snacks provided). Then we will connect with the present moment through Buddhist meditation, led by Bodhamayi. Bodhamayi is an ordained Buddhist of the Triratna order, a meditation teacher and Reiki therapist of over 20 years. She will guide us in a session of Buddhist meditation, weaving in text from the Dharma and Buddhist Meditation techniques to allow us to be with the present moment.

After a short break, to allow some space for integration, we will move into Somatic release with Tom Hoyland. Tom is a Reflexologist and Massage therapist of over 26 years and a Tension and Trauma Release Exercise provider. He will guide and support you through some gentle exercises to help release deep muscular tension and holding patterns in the body, through accessing the tremor/shaking mechanism of the body.

We will then break for lunch (please bring your own or buy some locally).

Following lunch, we will take a meditative silent walk around Highbury Fields, taking in the space, trees and surrounding nature, as well as the sites and sounds of others on the fields, (please do bring weather appropriate clothing).

Returning back to the Yoga studio, our final session will be a journey through sound, with Carlo Volpi. Carlo is a Biodynamic Psychotherapist and a sound healer for over 12 years. Using singing bowls and gongs, Carlo will guide us on a deeply relaxing sound journey.

The day will end with a final check-in and time for questions and integration of the full day.
