Settling Into Your Body In Meditation

Norman will be leading a 90 minute online teaching for Sangha Live.
Finding a comfortable body posture when meditating is a crucial element in our practice. We can use our bodies as a way of experiencing change and impermanence. Each time is different. In this session we will be looking at ways to make our bodies comfortable for meditation - both standing (if appropriate for your body) and sitting.

Regular Yin Yoga workshops

The two or three-hour Yin yoga workshop is a precious chance to slow down and to soften. Norman Blair is one of the most experienced Yin teachers in UK and he has been teaching these workshops since 2003. This practice of mindfully bending and gently moving can be remarkably rejuvenating for our body-mind-heart. Yin yoga gives us the space to slow down and stay with our experiences rather than always rushing and striving to achieve. The floor-based postures are held for several minutes.
Norman teaches monthly yoga workshops at yoga studios across London. See below for details.
