Pause & Breathe CIC

This Qi Gong session is a great starting place if you're a complete beginner. Perhaps you've heard about Qi Gong, but you've never tried it. More experienced practitioners are welcome too, but be aware that Phil will be teaching the basics.

Join us for an online social night - much needed in these highly constrained times. Our quiz will last for around an hour. Bring your own refreshments, and paper and pen. It's suitable for the whole family, or you're also welcome to join solo. Donations go towards the prizes that we give (and either the petrol to drop them off, or the postage needed)!

Join us for an early morning meditation. You are more than welcome to be in your pj's. This meditation is guided by Susie.

This is a deep relaxation practice, helping us to get ready for sleep. There is no movement required. The suggestion is to be as cosy and comfy as possible - people often join us from their beds, ready for sleep. You won't be brought back at the end of the session, so if you have drifted off, there's no need to worry about having to chat.

Join Phil as he shares some Qi Gong moves, for physical and emotional health. No experience is necessary for these sessions.

It feels so difficult to truly relax just now – tiredness levels are at all all-time high and finding the energy to do anything is problematic. But we are gradually starting to nudge into Spring, our days are getting that wee bit longer. Snowdrops and Crocuses have been spotted. Maybe our mood is generally starting to lighten a little too?

Susie from Pause & Breathe and Morag from Sound Balance Scotland are delighted to collaborate again for a relaxing evening – you don’t need to do anything, just lie back and listen to a soothing yoga nidra (relaxation-style meditation) followed by a sound bath. Our theme for the night is “Opening to the Energy of Spring”. We hope at the end of the night you’ll feel uplifted, yet soothed.

Our session will be held on Friday 12th March, 7.30-9pm via zoom. The cost of the session is £15, for the full evening (£12 for Pause & Breathe Online Subscribers). If this feels too much currently, please get in contact. We have subsidised spaces available - just let us know what you can afford, no questions asked.

Unfurling into Spring – 4 online sessions with Susie from Pause & Breathe and Lindsey from YogaNuU bringing you mindfulness and yoga practices to support moving towards unfurling ourselves from winter hibernation into the energy of spring.

Each online session will have a unique focus from leaning in, emerging to blossoming and flourishing. Join us for any or all 4 online sessions of these sessions with Yoga and Mindfulness practices.

We'll be meeting together on 4 Sundays: 14 March, 28 March, 11 April and 25 April 7.15-9pm online with zoom. Your investment is £20 per session or £60 for the block. If you're a Pause & Breathe online subscriber you can enjoy a discounted rate of £16 per session and £48 for the block.

We will be discussing Russ Harris' book: "The Happiness Trap". This is our second discussion about this book, because it's so rich. You may want to bring any of the exercises from the book if you've completed them to discuss, or any experiences you may have had with ACT (Acceptance Commitment Training). You don't need to have finished the book to take part, all are welcome.

In this workshop we'll be turning towards the new season that we find ourselves in. We'll talk a little about how the energy of Spring helps us to lean into changes in our lifestyle, the things that are good to practice in Spring and how we can "detox" in different ways (physically / emotionally, etc).

We will have the chance for some mindfulness practices, centred on the energy of Spring.

Thich Nhat Hanh is such an important teacher of mindfulness. We're taking 6 months to delve into some of his teachings in depth.

We'll be meeting once a month, in-between sessions, there'll be the chance to chat in a private group about any studying undertaken.

Each month will have a theme, there will be suggested readings / audio recordings / videos to watch.

We'll meet on the last Friday of every month, except April when we'll meet the previous week. Sessions will run from 6-7pm.

Please note that this booking is just to attend the live discussion group, it doesn't give access to the written materials. To join the course in full, please email me: susie@pauseandbreathe.co.uk
