What does the Radiant Mornings Programme Include?

POSTURE –You will be guided through Yoga asana (posture) practice which interweaves a broad-ranging approach to Yoga practice with the teachings of Ayurveda. This will help you to sustain not only a healthy musculature, but also health in the whole body and mind. You will feel a different kind of strength as we are working to harmonise, contain and expand your prana (life-force) in our approach to posture practice. The style and content of Yoga posture practice is adapted to the nature of each season and various lunar phases. At some times of year, the practice is more dynamic, with strengthening, cleansing and energising postures: at other times, the practice is slower and more grounding: and then at other times, we immerse into deeply nourishing and cooling practices.

BREATH –You will be regularly practicing age-old breathing techniques which boost your energy levels, peace of mind, immunity, digestion and stress-resilience. These practices can also help to reduce any mental disturbances, fatigue and insomnia you may tend towards, and to slow down the ageing process. And breathing practices too are selected for their capacity to support equilibrium in your body and mind through the changing seasons and the fluctuating influence of the various moon phases on body and mind.

RELAXATION – Daily relaxation practices, new and old, will help to release tensions and toxins that may have accumulated in your body and mind for your continued wellness. These practices will help you experience better mood, improved sleep, and a means to regularly release any pent up pressures and stresses you may be carrying. In darker colder months, the nature of the guided visualisations used during relaxation processes, will differ from those used during warmer, more active months. Seasonal adaptations are made for your maximum benefit.

MEDITATION AND ENQUIRY – The regular meditations on this programme will help to anchor you in a place within which is untouched by the everyday worries and pressures of life, a place which is beyond all doubt and fear, and where you find supreme peace and contentment. This is a very healing and transformational place to rest.

NUTRITION – The health-enhancing benefits you will experience from daily Ayurveda Yoga practice, will be complemented by ongoing nutritional guidance. Ayurveda teaches us to adapt our foods through according to nature’s rhythms: the seasons and their transitions, and the lunar cycles also. You will receive month-by-month eating plans, with tips and practices throughout the classes for optimising digestion and for reducing toxic build up, inflammation, aches and pains, and weight gain or excessive weight loss.

LIFESTYLE – You will also receive Ayurveda seasonal lifestyle guidance to help you build on the wide-ranging benefits of the Ayurveda Yoga practices, so that you can sustain physical and mental strength, and vitality throughout the year.

What participants are saying:

“Sara’s dedicated care in keeping us all grounded and well has shone through once again.  The daily pranayama (breath work), asanas and meditation have literally changed my days from being full of anxiety, instability and sometimes fear, to days of strength and positivity and I just felt the need to show my appreciation.  You literally change lives Sara and given the regular numbers of us showing up I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in benefiting. With so much appreciation and love”. Mandy McCleod, Leamington Spa, Yoga teacher

“Sara thank you for these wonderful (lockdown) classes that have bought a sense of purpose and a rhythm to each day. The asana practice has been so positive, five weeks into lockdown and there are many postures that now come far more easily and the peace that I’m finding in meditation is starting to change me …….  Your kindness, care, love and unparalleled knowledge are humbling and I’m truly blessed to have you as my teacher. And I mean every single word of that”. Jude Delaney, Confectioner, Stratford Upon Avon

“Sara’s warm and nurturing vibe draws me to my mat with ease. She creates a space for us all to connect with each other and ourselves. Every class feels fresh, as Sara shares her wisdom, there is always something new to discover or ponder. I would wholeheartedly recommend her classes. It has been a privilege to attend Sara’s daily classes”… Rosa Chiliari, Psychologist, Stratford upon Avon

“I’ve been on this journey since the beginning of lockdown and it’s truly been a wonderful experience. The daily classes have provided an anchor during such uncertain times and now coming to the mat every day is a time of peace and comfort….for which I unreservedly thank Sara for showing us the way.” Jenny Mitchell, Stratford Upon Avon

“When you discover that the Yoga path is the one you want to follow it doesn’t necessarily become an easy path but it is one that draws you in. Early mornings, challenging concepts, challenging postures. But there’s something which continues to interest us and we begin to see how deeply it enhances our lives. Particularly over the last strange 18 months. There’s some reason we have to get back on that mat. And Shama makes that special teaching very accessible.” Mandy McCleod, Yoga teacher Leamington Spa

“I have loved the commitment. The week has flown by and hasn’t felt like it has taken any time from my day but I remember bits throughout the day and have a greater awareness of “being here”. It’s so good to do this face-to-face. Thank you Sara. The timings/length of the course are perfect.” RB, Stratford Upon Avon

“Thank you so much for a wonderful first week of Yoga, Sara. I’ve loved being part of the group. Thank you. “ Past participant. 

“I can’t say how much I’m benefited  from the yoga last week. It’s difficult to pinpoint exactly how but I have a spring in my step and I’m so much more productive. I’ve really enjoyed it so far”. E.N. Stratford Upon Avon
