Nervous System Restore
A beginner-friendly class for calming the body and mind
Feeling overwhelmed or constantly on edge? This course offers simple, effective tools to support your nervous system and help you move from stress and overload to greater clarity, calm, and relaxation.
Through gentle, somatic-based practices drawn from Yin Yoga, Somatics, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, you’ll learn how to release deep tension in the body and restore balance. These practices work on the soft tissues to encourage emotional release, ease physical holding patterns, and support the healthy flow of energy throughout your whole system.
Join us to discover how small, mindful movements can bring big shifts in how you feel - physically, mentally, and emotionally.
This is for you if...
You’ve been told yoga might help, but you’re not sure where to begin.
Life feels overwhelming, and you’re craving a quiet, gentle hour just for yourself each week.
You’ve tried yoga - online or in-person - but find it hard to stick with a regular practice.
You’re specifically looking to reduce stress and deeply relax your body and mind.
What to Expect
This course offers slow, grounding practices designed to support your nervous system and overall wellbeing. We’ll explore gentle, longer-held postures along with other mindful techniques that promote deep rest, emotional release, and energetic balance.
Rooted in Yin Yoga, Somatics, and Traditional Chinese Medicine, each class stimulates the meridian (energy) channels of the body - restoring flow, releasing blockages, and encouraging deep inner healing. This meditative approach invites you to tune into your body’s sensations and your mental landscape with compassion and awareness.
You’ll learn how to:
Breathe fully and consciously
Stretch and nourish tissues that are often neglected
Create space in both body and mind
Sit with your thoughts without judgment
Inspired by ancient Taoist principles, this practice sees the body as a network of energy pathways (Qi). By softening into poses, we allow that energy to move freely again - supporting physical, emotional, and mental balance.
In today’s fast-paced world - whether you’re running errands, juggling meetings, or constantly on the go - this slower, more introspective practice offers a much-needed counterbalance. It’s not just about stretching; it’s about coming home to yourself, exactly as you are.

Somatic Yoga for Mobility and Relaxation
Tuesdays 6.15pm-7.30pm - Make Space in New Mills
A slow, deeply nourishing class combining myofascial release, yin yoga, meditation, and intuitive movement.
