Yin Yoga for Deep Rest – upon arrival you will be greeted with a relaxing herbal tea. We will then begin the practice with a seated meditation to find stillness preparing us for a grounding Yin Yoga flow.

We end the session with an aromatherapy infused Savasana and Yoga Nidra (guided Relaxation)

Exploring the Chakras Workshop

Exploring the Chakras Workshop – Saturday 25th January 2020 @haleyogastudios 2pm – 430pm

Chakras are the bridge between the conscious mind and our bodies. These energy centres govern our physical and emotional well being. However certain influences from conditioning, lifestyle and past issues can affect there overall function and ability to create harmony within.
Join me for an opportunity to explore this energectic system and the self through movement, relaxation, chanting and meditation. A chance to balance, heal and transform built up stress and tensions. The yoga will include meditative yin, slow flow yoga and grounding restorative postures. We will complete the afternoon with Yoga Nidra (often referred to as yogic sleep) to fully relax the senses and to set clear intentions (sankalpa) so we may continue our transformational journey.
Workshop includes herbal tea on arrival and healthy treat to finish.

2pm – 430pm Saturday 25th April 2020

Held at Hale Yoga Studio, Ashley Road, Hale www.haleyoga.com

Meditation to Calm the Mind

Enjoy this Buddhist inspired meditation using the mantra Om Ah Hum for inner peace and calm.

The mantra is chanted silently with each sound representing a different part of the breath. The sound Om is chanted in the inhale and held at the heart centre to cleanse our physical body. Ah is then for the speech and chanted between the inhale and exhale the awareness of this sound is held at the throat for clarity in our speech, and finally the Hum sound is for the mind inspiring a sense of peace and chanted silently on the exhale.

Listen below for further guidance and this blissful mantra that purifies our body, speech and mind

Sports Relief Yogathon Wins Award

Manchester Sporting Legends
A few weeks ago, I was extremely fortunate to be invited to attend the first ever ‘We Love MCR Sporting Legends Awards’ event.

The evening was sponsored by Sports Relief, in order to raise money for local charities and determine who the biggest sporting legends from Manchester are, as voted for by the public.

As part of the event though, local fundraisers were also recognised for the extra work they had put into raising money for Sport Relief last year. I was lucky enough to be one of those people!

On the night, I received an award for the Most Inventive Fundraising Event, as I organised the Manchester Yogathon, challenging myself and others to see how many sun salutations they could complete in one go – 25, 50 or 100! It was a huge success, and we did 100 within an hour – a world record!

Alex Ferguson won on the night, along with Dame Sarah Storey and Bryan Robson. It was such a great experience to see all these sporting legends side by side, and raise money for such a worthwhile cause.

We completed another yogathon this year at David Lloyds Manchester again for Sport Relief raising over £500. If you’d like to make a donation, please visit http://my.sportrelief.com/sponsor/mariakelly
