Reconnect with your inner self through the healing power of sound with Chetal Patel. This immersive experience is designed to help you slow down, release tension, and restore balance within. Through soothing vibrations and mindful sound healing, you will be guided into a space of deep relaxation, clarity, and self-discovery. Allow yourself the time to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the calm and peace that already exists within you.

ABOUT CHETAL:
Chetal is a Sound Healer, Reiki Master, Breathwork Coach, and a B.E.S.T Practitioner. She has been working with sound for a year and it has helped her with her anxiety and manage her expectations, as she thrives in being a perfectionist. Sound is energy, and if an individual puts this energy into the crystal bowls, it will receive energy in return. Due to its nature, you can amplify, convert and transmit this energy to a higher form. Crystal alchemy singing bowls are powerful, photon activating sonic tools which raise our vibrational frequency. They release stuck energy, promote wellness and bring shifts in consciousness to our lives and to humanity. All Chetal’s sound baths are Reiki infused. Her classes are ideal for individuals who want to use sound to treat stress, anxiety, heal deep emotional wounds, grief, traumas, sleeplessness, abdication, burnout and depression. The alchemies in the bowls build energy circuits to house unconditional love.

Join us for an exclusive Rope Yoga Workshop on Sunday 14th June with Emma Bonnici. Discover the art of using ropes to enhance your yoga practice, improving alignment. This workshop offers a focused exploration of wall rope practice – supporting deeper understanding, clarity, and intelligence in āsana.

We will explore how wall ropes can:

• Support and refine alignment
• Create space and traction in the body
• Adapt postures to suit individual needs and body types
• Allow access to actions that may be difficult to experience on the mat alone

Each workshop follows a different sequence and set of asanas, so if you have attended before, you can expect a new and distinct exploration each time. Open to all levels. This workshop invites students to deepen their practice with the support of props, develop greater body awareness, and discover new ways of working with familiar postures.

After exploring the lungs and the space of breath, grief, and opening, in June we move upward into the throat. The throat is where breath becomes expression. It is the bridge between our inner world and the outer world, connected to voice, truth, emotion, communication, and the nervous system.

This session will explore the soft organs of the throat and neck:
The voice, thyroid, jaw, tongue, airway, and the pathways through which we speak, swallow, hold back, and express ourselves. Through breathwork, gentle movement, sound, and guided awareness, we’ll explore what happens when this area softens and opens.

– No experience needed
– Suitable for beginners and regular breathers.
– Come exactly as you are.
