Spirituality in your Yoga

January/February 2024 News

Happy New Year to you and your loved ones!

This month, there are no changes to classes/timetables, etc., but wonder if any readers would be interested in my soon to be published pioneering book for Lent?  

Wild Goose Publications (Iona Community) will publish ‘Embody Lent’ around 22nd January 2024 for £10.99 available on their website. 

Here’s the link for pre-orders:

https://www.ionabooks.com/product/embody-lent/

This book intersects Yoga and Christian Spirituality in an illustrated 8 session course; involving movement, breath awareness, biblical reflection and ways into silent prayer. It is a resource for individuals, pairs or groups and there are options for chair exercises only if necessary. For Yoga teachers you may know it is an ‘off the shelf” course which you could easily adapt for your context. 

For your family, friends or colleagues – it’s for them if they already practise yoga or are simply curious…..

I am a Spiritual Director, a Church of Scotland minister in the Presbytery of SouthWest Scotland, currently an ecumencial pioneer minister in the Diocese of Carlisle and a Yoga Scotland teacher, with classes in Cumbria, SW Scotland and weekly on Zoom.

Peace be with you
Pauline.

Teaching soon at the new BETTER Sands Centre, Carlisle.

The centre opens on Monday 14th November. I will be teaching the very first Yoga class ever in the gorgeous new studios at 7pm that night. Book in via the website either as a member or pay as you go online. Monday nights will be my regular weekly slot.

There are 3 Yoga teachers, all contract staff. Simon will be covering the Yoga on Tuesday mornings 7.15am for Andrea. His regular weekly slot will be Thursdays 5pm.

I am covering for Andrea on Fridays 6pm – whilst she’s in Vietnam.
Feeling thankful. Particularly because the Sands Centre, Carlisle, is where I started practising Yoga in 2008 aged 39 after a knee injury training for a 10K. Feels like coming back to where it all began full circle, now aged 53.
