Friday Flourish evening retreat: Mental Clarity
What are these?
These are stand alone classes/events based around a certain theme.
I appreciate you might not want a regular class on a Friday evening so these are roughly once a month and are designed to give you time to flourish - physically, emotionally, spiritually.
Maybe you can’t commit to a weekly class but would like to come to a one-off; maybe you want to come with your friend; your mum; your sister; your daughter.
Maybe the last time you saw me was at a pregnancy or postnatal class but you would like to occasionally dip into an evening just for you.
Maybe you are intrigued about my style of teaching and this is a good way to see if my weekly classes will be a good fit.
Maybe you already come to my women’s classes and want more.
These are just for women (my specialism).
Please don't worry about your level of experience; your age; fitness; flexibility; or any other self-imposed doubts which might be creeping in. Everyone is welcome with open arms, and if you are a seasoned yogi, there are lots for you too.

The Next Friday Flourish
The May Friday Flourish is all about Mental Clarity.
In our 90 mins together, we will start with an exploration of the practicalities of mental clarity; moving onto a calm, clarity and confidence meditation. I will then give you the choice to either sit with yourself, welcoming in your thoughts or journaling in the kit provided; or have a go at 5 simple brain games in your own time (these aren’t scary; only you will know how you got on). Our mantra for the evening will be ‘I Clear The Lens’.
Our physical practice works mainly the lower back, hamstrings, hip flexors and glutes. There is a real mix of standing, seated and prone postures. We will spend most of our time stretching the body, but also look at balance, strengthening and forward bends.
Finally we will finish with a beautiful guided relaxation on clarity.
Everyone goes home with a goodie bag, which includes a notebook, pen, cotton bag and beautiful art print.
The cost of the evening is £22 each and is limited to 10 attendees.
How do I book a space?
Please complete the booking form; full payment will be taken at the same time.
You can also book another month's Flourish at this time.
What do I need to bring?
I will provide all yoga equipment (mats, blankets, pillows, straps and eye masks) to use at your discretion. It is your choice if you would like to bring your own mat in addition to place on top.
I would advise that you bring a bottle of water and wear some loose comfortable clothes for your yoga practice, including layers so you can easily adjust depending on whether you are lying still in relaxation or being more physical.
If you have any queries, however small, just contact me and I will gladly help.
