It really makes all the difference! Meditation, flow yoga, a nourishing plant based lunch, optional walk, restorative yoga, yoga nidra & crystal singing bowl sound healing. Held in the beautiful grounds of The Retreat New Forest including tea/coffee & lunch in the beautiful Colin Nash Restaurant. £89.

Join me to relax & experience the healing power of crystal sound. Everything in the universe is in a constant state of vibration, including our bodies. When this rhythm is out of sync, dis-ease & disharmony result. Vibrational sound healing can work with these imbalances & blockages of the energy channels to help restore balance & ease within the body again. Shown to relieve stress, anxiety & high blood pressure. The crystal bowls are 99.992% pure quartz crystal & the purifying tones deeply relax, release blockages & tension, inviting profound relaxation & calm
Ayurvedic wisdom workshops - Ayurveda is the worlds oldest system of healthcare & medicine. It is the science of living! Ayur meaning life & Veda meaning science or knowledge. The body has an innate inner intelligence & consciousness. The aim of Ayurveda is to enliven this inner intelligence to restore & optimise homeostasis or balance in the body & therefore our self repair mechanisms. Join me in these workshops to unleash optimal health. Feel vital!

ABOUT MELISSA YOGA
I’ve been practicing yoga for over 20 years. Travelling to far away places as cabin crew has given me the opportunity to practice with many wonderful teachers in the most amazing places. Initially setting out with a physical practice I soon realised yoga is so much more. I took a teacher training in 2012 with the late & most incredible yogi Conrad Paul (I clearly remember his last words to me being ‘Go shine the light’ so here I am!) & then pre & post natal training with Yoga London in 2016, Yoga Nidra & Crystal Singing bowl Sound Healing, Reiki & Ayurvedic medicine.
I believe yoga is for EVERYONE & love to share the life changing practice with all. I offer classes, workshops, retreats, one to one & corporate yoga. If you are completely new or a seasoned yogi there is a class for you. There are always variations to challenge & modifications within poses & alternatives to simplify. Classes are aimed for all levels. I am here to support you on your yogic path. There is no need to be flexible! Join our wonderful nurturing yoga community. Practicing together creates the most wonderful energy. Come along!! 🙏
