Yoga has many benefits, physical, mental and emotional. It strengthens the body, creates flexibility, tones muscles and aligns our posture. However beyond the physical benefits ‘something happens’ when we practice Yoga regularly, which is difficult to describe. Through repeating the physical postures we come into alignment within ourselves, it’s a deep level of connection, beyond our flesh, it’s the alignment of who we really are and not who we think we are. It aligns our energetic body, which creates peace and calm which continues even when we step off the mat.   To know Yoga is to do it. It has to be felt. All the descriptions in the world cannot do it justice to the feeling of being able to move and to stretch, to come out of our heads and into our bodies, and to connect inwards. Everything we do in life is for the sole purpose that we will feel better in the doing or the having of it. We are always looking outwards for some kind of gratification, when really all we need to do is go inwards. Yoga is the answer!

The Rosen Method Bodywork, performed on a massage table, connects muscle tension with our emotions. We often unconsciously “hold onto” our feelings through our bodies. Through sensitive touch, the body drops down into a deep level of relaxation, and a connection between the body and feelings is reached. With this awareness comes release of pent up emotion, and then relief from letting go, and a new sense of peace in the mind, and the body.
