Massage: An hour of 15 minute tasters to 1 hour long treatments for individuals.
Nutrition Workshops: Food choices can have a massive effect on physical and mental health. Workshops can focus on Eating for Stress, Eating to boost Immunity, Eating for health, Feeding your child.
Stress Relief Workshops: We will cover what is stress and how does it affect us? And provide resources to deal with stress - aromatherapy, food & herbs, music & voice, self-massage, visualisation, mindful movement yoga & breathing techniques.
Stress workshops can be delivered as taster workshops of one hour or longer half-full day sessions.

Yoga Nidra is the Yoga of Sleep. The body starts to become calm as we are guided to move our attention through the body parts, letting each relax. As we go deeper into this state of relaxation our mind finds stillness. The most easily observable effect of Yoga Nidra practice is the extremely deep relaxation of your nervous system. Yoga Nidra has been clinically shown to be one of the most powerful methods available to achieve this state without the use of chemical agents.

"Yoga practice supports the mind to reach and remain in a state of peace, joy and equanimity. Modern trends show a significant increase in the prevalence of mental health issues among both old and young people from all walks of life. Emotional wellbeing is an indispensable inner resource, which impacts health, relationships and productivity of people. Depression, anxiety, increased suicide rates and adjustment problems are increasing affecting family and social harmony. There is a strong advocacy to the need for “life skills” to help people, irrespective of age and gender, to deal with multiple stresses of life. There is a need to develop and to hone management skills to enhance emotional literacy in order to enable personal and professional functionality.
Yoga, as a holistic health promotive approach is a “life skill strategy” which provides principles and practices to nurture emotional development and management.
Active application-oriented research studies on yoga, focusing on psycho-physiological parameters has indicated strongly the beneficial impact of yoga practices on mood, anxiety, emotional regulation, concentration, subjective well-being, self-concept and self-confidence. Currently, psychiatrists and psychologists are recommending yoga as a viable means of holistic self-management." Source: Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram
