This class starts with a calm invitation to settle in, notice your breathing, and choose the level of support that feels right for your body. From there, Chris guides a steady flow of hip- and back-friendly movement with lots of options: gentle joint-freeing work on the mat, supported lunges and twists, warrior variations, and a thoughtful floor sequence that includes a block-squeezed bridge, a supported inversion, and a quiet finish in Shavasana. Along the way, he circles back to the real-life practice of staying attentive, moving without strain, and treating yourself with a little more kindness than usual.

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.
