SERENITY GROUNDED MAGIC
Each morning we make the choice to focus our attention, breathe deep, ground ourselves and find serenity. Through our practice we ignite the courage of the heart to stay true to ourselves and the magic of this world and what really matters. This is an online sangha, an offering for anyone who would like to be part of a small intimate caring community offering each other accountability to show up for ourselves and develop our home practice. We meet every day mostly in the morning before the chaos of the world has begun.
Together we explore feelings, patterns of thinking, emotions and how they live in the body. Through the use of breath, posture, meditation, movement, mantra and incantations we become:
1. Conscious of unhelpful patterns of behaviour, biology, thinking and emotions.
2. Release old patterns stored in the body & mind
3. Create new patterns to support our growth
WE EXPLORE OUR ENTRENCHED PATTERNS AROUND EMOTIONAL REGULATION, ATTACHMENT, DUTY, PERFECTIONISM AND PERSONALITY.
Please Be Aware...To join the morning sangha I will arrange a telephone call to discuss your experience of yoga meditation, injuries or illness. Because you practice in the comfort of your own home or workplace it is at your own risk. I am known for my clarity of instruction and I always offer alternative movements to accomodate injuries or physical and psychological constraints, however I cannot be responsible for supervision via zoom and any injuries your incurr during your practice.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY?
Hannah
I joined Marie's online classes and they have really helped both with my fitness levels, as well as, mentally. As a teacher I often find work stressful. Marie's classes help me to focus my mind on the positives rather than the negatives. The breathing techniques I use everyday when I feel things may be getting a little too much. Saturday morning class is my escape after a busy week in work and I love it.
Jan
Menopausal and having sat at a desk for over 30 years, I knew I needed to make some changes in my life. Marie checks in with me to discuss my health issues. In class she explains each step & I never felt out of my depth. Marie acknowledges that it’s hard to turn up to on your mat and encourages us all to overcome those mental challenges. I certainly didn’t anticipate the influence her classes would have.
Vicki
Marie has taught me so much more than I could have hoped for. My practice improved and I feel fitter, healthier and more centred. Marie provides fantastic support and challenge. She is knowledgeable, kind, motivational and creative. I think what is also unique is that we embark on an individual journey with the support of a truly inspirational person. As a busy working mum I have managed to continue regular practice and I look forward to each session.
Sarah
At first it was difficult to imagine how I would ever regain the flexibility lost through years of sitting at a desk or in a car on long work trips. I saw a difference almost immediately. I now try to do it three or four classes a week. I have less aches and pains, increased strength and flexibility and have learnt important breathing techniques that I find myself doing without thinking when I need to calm myself.

Morning classes have been a revelation to me - you lie on your mat and breathe deeply, knowing you've made the effort to get there. Once that deep breath is taken, you're reconnected; to your own body, to Marie's voice, to everything. She always says: "This is where the magic happens." She's with you each step, your guide through the next 40 mins. She knows exactly what you are experiencing and thinking. Magic!
Clare
I'm completely hooked! Marie is full of encouragement, enthusiasm and her genuine warmth, kindness and knowledge is what makes her classes so brilliant. Thank you Marie you are an inspiration!

Marie took the time to explain everything and her encouragement has led me to continue. I am feeling the mental and physical benefits every day!
