Jules Yoga Nidra

Photos of last night’s pink moon on my way home from teaching a full moon and water-themed Yoga Nidra and Shamatha yoga class at the London Shambhala Centre.

And Foster, the fluffy cat I’m looking after, slipping outside for a moment to bask in the moon's rays. 💟

90% of people will miss this tonight because they’re looking at their phones. DON’T BE ONE OF THEM.

On the night of April 1, the full moon known as the “Pink Moon” will be visible in the sky.

The universe is putting on a free show—don’t forget to look up. 🔭

Here are some photos of moons and sea/water I’ve taken over the years...

My next Shamatha Yoga and Yoga Nidra evening also falls on the full moon period this month; an auspicious time to practice.

There will be a water theme to this evening, as the moon has such a direct influence on our waters and seas on Earth.

In Buddhism, the full moon symbolises enlightenment, wisdom, and the potential to awaken. In the Shambhala tradition, we often practice the Sadhana of Mahamudra on full moons.

Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche taught that the “genuine water” of buddhadharma is like pure water- transparent and fluid. It has no fixed shape, and yet it can nourish, refresh, and adapt to the vessel it is poured into.

My ‘Cosy Friday’ event will indeed be on a Thursday next week (Thursday is the new Friday 😊), but also because it’s the Easter weekend, so a lovely time to relax and reflect before the holiday .

Come along and take a pause in your life during this time ❤️

Tea served from 7.20pm, beginning at 7.45pm.

This coming Friday 6th March I’m starting monthly Yoga Nidra + Shamatha Yoga classes at the London Shambhala Centre 🌙✨. Our first Yoga Nidra journey will explore themes of Heaven & Earth- opening and grounding. We’ll play with opposites: spaciousness, touching into the vastness of the Great Eastern Sun ☀️, and rootedness, using the earth beneath our feet and body as a reminder to feel into ourselves, and where we are right now 🌿. If you’re new to Yoga Nidra or have any questions, feel free to DM me 💌 Booking link (and more info) in bio 🔗 This photo was inspired by the view during a yoga practice yesterday 📷 — reflecting on Shamatha yoga🧘‍♀️- the feeling of the sun, sky ☀️💙 and the first stirrings of spring 🌱. #yoganidra #shamatha #claphamyoga #meditation #greateasternsun

🐰🤍 Here are some cute cosy photos from my current house sit to commemorate Valentine’s 🐰🤍

Come unwind with me next Thursday evening 🌿
At my upcoming Yoga Nidra class on Thursday, 30th October at 7:30pm.
We’ll begin with some gentle yoga and breathwork to calm the nervous system, followed by a Yoga Nidra and singing bowls.
The theme this time is transforming 'grey fog' into light, spaciousness and freedom — inspired by the Buddhist practice of lojong, which I find particularly beneficial.
Get in touch for more info or to book ❤️🕊️✨
