How Do We Get From Busy to Rest?
So many of us come to the practice of yoga to move. What we often overlook is how important it is to tune in to the subtle and be still, to not just to move our bodies but to move ourselves towards the deep sense of knowing that was there all along. A remembering. A resting of our whole being.

Energised Relaxation and Internal Clarity: Taking Your Practice Outside
One of the most amazing things about yoga is that you can move your practice literally anywhere. It is there for you to access whenever and wherever you need it.
This Sunday we are moving our mats once again to the glorious surroundings of Roberts Park. As we flow through an accessible and invigorating vinyasa style yoga class under the gaze of Sir Titus Salt, our ceiling is the sky and our floor is the grass! There is something inherently beautiful about breathing new life into our practice as we experience an enhanced feeling of energised relaxation and internal clarity, enjoying the simplicity of movement whilst being connected with nature.
Join @Heather Yoga on Sunday 25th July at 9.45am-11am for @Yoga and Meditation in the Park. Reserving your spot is essential and our bookings will close on Saturday 24th July at 8pm

What is somatic teaching?
Many people understand Somatics to be particular movement sequences/exercises that have an aim to release muscle tension and bring the muscles and nervous system back in to balance. But as teachers, if we only instruct students/clients what to do ("arch your back", "tip your pelvis", "lift the left buttock off the floor") are we really teaching Somatics?
Somatics is about creating a learning environment and allowing each soma to sense, move, learn, choose...this cannot be done by only following instructions.
Should you have your feet together or apart in Tadasana/Mountain Pose?
Sometimes it feels like there are so many different options available in the yoga practice. As a beginner practitioner this can get confusing and even a little daunting. So do you have your feet together or apart in this simple but very key pose?
Having your feet under your hips works well for the majority of people as it's a more natural stance and can help you feel more stable, spacious and secure - compared to feet together which is a narrower base to balance the body weight across. Everyone has a unique anatomy with individual proportions and so the spacing between the feet can look very different across many bodies.
