In additional to workshops and courses all my yoga retreats explore mindfulness and meditation, too.
I have some flexibility around timings. A later start time or Thursday evening can also work – please email me if timings don’t work. Recordings will be available if you need to miss a session, and there’s also a ‘recording-only’ option for £40.
Sound is all around us. It deeply affects how we feel and can trigger a whole range of emotional reactions: We are disturbed by unpleasant or loud sounds (think police car siren), irritated by the sound of a fly buzzing around our ear, and uplifted by bird song or pleasant music. Sound easily triggers memories and transforms our mood. It’s powerful!
In this 4 week meditation course we’ll practise intentional listening to help us root awareness in the present moment, stabilise attention and relax deeply. External sounds can often be seen as ‘distractions’ to meditation. Here we are reframing this experience entirely and instead use sounds as an accessible way into practice and then as a tool to go deeper.
Each week we explore several techniques and practices that guide us towards a more profound understanding of the impact of sound on our state of being:
Explore the power of sound as a tool for meditation and a guide to deeper awareness, tranquillity and inner peace. Everyone is welcome – whether you are a beginner or an experienced meditator.
You will receive recordings of short talks and guided practices to download. You can work with these should you need to miss a session, and they can also become a basis for your own continued home practice.
We will work in a small group of people to create a safe and inclusive space to explore and practice.

Resilience is the capacity to cope well with life’s inevitable challenges, and develop strategies to be adaptive, manage stress and reactivity, create solutions when faced with difficulties, look after ourselves, and connect to others in a meaningful way.
While some of us are born more resilient than others, we can all use practical tools and coping strategies to increase inner strength.
In this workshop we explore what’s required to become more resilient with simple techniques and practical tips. We set the parameters for positive change and trust into our inner support system, to enhance wellbeing.
We will explore:
All are welcome – no previous experience required.
You are invited into my little practice room in Stoke Newington or I’m happy to join you in the comfort of your own home. Private sessions usually work best for one to one tuition, but can also be adapted to small groups.
Please email me for available times and prices.
I give talks and facilitate workshops and 4 – 8 week courses at your workplace which can be tailored to the needs of the group.
