Welcome to Barbara’s Yoga in Sandhurst, Berkshire.
Approximately 34% of the population is estimated to suffer with persistent, or as it is generally called, chronic pain. There has been a move in recent times to explore new ways to live with persistent pain. It involves finding places of safety in our body and mind, as well as discovering accessible ways of moving. A new online and in person yoga session for people with persistent (chronic) pain is being prepared. It is anticipated that there will be blocks of 5 sessions, being four online sessions, followed by a 2 hour in person session in a local venue. Should the group decide they prefer to meet in person a suitable venue will be arranged and the session will carry on there. No start date has yet been set, but it is anticipated this will be in May 2024.
Call me on 07960456078 or email [email protected] if you’re interested and you’d like more details.
The online platform yoga class of 1 hour and 30 minutes will cost in the region of £15.
Requirements for the session will be
- Access to the designated online meeting platform on a device of your choice
- A quiet space where you won’t be disturbed
- Loose clothing
- A yoga mat if you are on a wooden or hard floor
- To begin with a belt, tie or scarf, a bolster or large cushion, smaller cushions and a couple of yoga blocks.
It is often difficult to create a sense of community online. The activities offered will help to create some sense of sharing a common problem. The in-person meetings will certainly help to create a sense of being with people who are learning to manage a new way of coping with an often life altering problem.
