Yoga & Reiki Healing.

If you are new to yoga or reiki healing, you’re very welcome - during the yoga sessions we’ll provide many options for different levels.

I will offer a mixture of yoga styles - from energising and dynamic morning yoga to restorative, sleepy evening sessions (pre and postnatal options can be offered).

I have a friendly and playful approach to teaching, focusing on how it feels rather than how it looks.

If you’ve ever found trying to mediate / relax difficult, then reiki healing will be great for you! It’s a very simple and powerful way to get into a state of deep relaxation. 

Both practices are proven to reduce stress, low mood & fatigue.

Accommodation.

Find serenity in beautiful Wensleydale, on a 27 acre smallholding, where you’ll be stepping out of your yurt each morning to the stunning views of the Dales. The luxury yurts, include their own heated private wet room with a rainfall shower and a hot tub (heated for arrival). A wood burning stove inside; an Indian Fire Bowl outside, to keep us toasty on chillier nights. There are basic kitchen amenities inside the yurts inc. kettle and coffee machine; with options of sharing and single occupancy.
