Online Yoga Study Group

Looking for a relaxed, informal exploration of yoga philosophy/psychology?

This monthly group is for those interested in exploring the philosophy and psychology of Yoga and how it applies to our everyday lives.

The practice of yoga goes way beyond the practice of yoga asanas.

Those who are curious about what yoga is really about and are interested in exploring the philosophy and psychology of yoga may be interested in attending this ongoing monthly online study group I am facilitating.

Groups can be a support to spiritual growth.
The richness of these types of group discussions cannot be underestimated –they tolerate differing lifestyles and temperaments and open us up to new perspectives.

Initially we will be exploring the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The Sutras are in essence a practical guide to our spiritual journey and discuss the aims and practice of yoga.

For the past 8 years I have been drawn to working mainly with one translation and commentary; The Secret Power of Yoga by Nischala Joy Devi.
I have found it very accessible and the commentary relevant to 21st Century living. This text will form the basis of our group discussions. It would be helpful for you to have a copy of the text but it’s not essential.

Each session will be simple and informal beginning with an invocation, breath practice and short meditation to gather and centre us.

A few sutras will be read together along with commentary. You then have the opportunity to explore these and the relevance to your daily lives in informal small group discussions.

We then gather together to share and finish with a heart meditation.

Cost: £10

Usui Heart-Centred Reiki Level 2 Training

Reiki Level 2 expands our capacity to work with others. With that comes responsibility, clarity, and care. In this training you will explore in depth the following core ethical principles of a Reiki practitioner.

Core Ethical Principles:
Consent first — Reiki is offered, never imposed
Humility — Reiki supports healing; it does not replace medical or mental health care
Non-attachment — We do not fix, diagnose, or promise outcomes
Clear boundaries — Emotional, physical, and energetic boundaries are essential
Confidentiality — What is shared in session stays private
Self-practice first — Ongoing self-Reiki keeps the work grounded and ethical
Respect autonomy — Each person is the authority of their own body and choices

Distance Reiki Ethics:
• Always ask permission before sending
• Work with intention, not control
• Trust the recipient’s system to receive what is appropriate

Reiki Level 2 is not about power—it is about presence, responsibility, and integrity.

Small group, maximum 6 students.
