Chris opens with a quiet invitation to settle into support, breathe into the space between the ribs and pelvis, and move without much agenda before easing onto the back for gentle joint-freeing work. From there, the class builds through balance drills, supported folds, warrior shapes, tree pose, and a little chair-like core work with a block, then softens into an inversion, a long breath-hold practice, and a slow landing in shavasana.

Journal

Here you'll find writing on mindfulness, neuroscience, mental health, physical wellbeing, and yoga.

These topics often overlap: attention, behaviour and embodiment are all part of the same ecosystem of experience, and the aim here is to explore those connections in a thoughtful and practical way. Some posts draw from research, others from lived experience and teaching. The intention is to share ideas that are useful, considered, and occasionally a bit different from what is typically said.
