As I look forward to our next Monthly Yoga Nidra on Sunday 9 November, I wanted to share this short practice with you 🌙

A 15-minute yoga nidra from our weekly Friday morning class as part of our exploration of strength in body, mind and breath - a restful journey inviting in courage and steadiness, with gentle spinal breathing and koshi chimes ✨

I invite you to take 15 minutes to cosy up, listen and restore (and maybe set a gentle alarm for 20 minutes if you’re worried about drifting off!)

Listen here: https://soundcloud.com/.../yoga-nidra-welcoming-in...

The practice weaves in words from ‘The River’ by Sandra Sabatini (Breath: The Essence of Yoga, 2000) and ‘For Courage’ by John O’Donohue (Benedictus, 2007). The spinal breathing was inspired by the course I’ve recently begun, Embodying the Teachings of Ta**ra 🔻

If you’d like to rest together in community, the next in person session is on Sunday 9 November (5.30–7.00pm) at All Saints Church Hall, Clifton.

£15 per person, including light refreshments.
To book your space, email rhiannon@the-rest-is.yoga

Excited to have started a new course at the weekend - 'Embodying The Teachings of Ta**ra' - a deep dive into the Vijñāna Bhairava Ta**ra 🔻🔺 There are many translations of this ancient text, and we're focusing on Lorin Roche's 'Radiance Sutras'. Looking forward to this learning unfolding over the next 10 months with the wonderful Sarah O'Connor and Tiffany Thorne, embodied learning from the heart not the head ❤️

🌙Next Monthly Yoga Nidra – Sunday 9 November, 5.30pm🌙

Hello everyone,

As the evenings draw in, I’m looking forward to gathering again for our next Monthly Yoga Nidra - a gentle, restorative practice of rest, connection and slowing down. It’s not always easy to stop, but this treasure of a practice can help.

You’ll be guided through yoga nidra - sometimes called yogic sleep - a deeply restful, guided meditation where you lie down, get cosy with blankets and cushions, and allow yourself to drift into stillness. We’ll finish with light refreshments shared in community.

Arrive just as you are - no experience needed.
Cost: £15 per person. Booking essential.

To book your space, please message me or email rhiannon@the-rest-is.yoga

A couple of spaces are still available for our Monthly Yoga Nidra tomorrow (Sun 5 Oct, 5.30–7pm, All Saints Church Hall, Clifton). An evening of deep rest, cosy nests, and community — nothing to do, no one to please.

£15 per person · booking essential: rhiannon@the-rest-is.yoga

Here’s an artwork I created back in 2018, inspired by the liminal space of yoga nidra, when my love for the practice really began to deepen — and I knew it was time to start my journey towards sharing this practice with others.

So looking forward to it 💛

Wishing you all a happy and restful autumn equinox 💛 A moment of pause and reflection as we shift one from season to the next - how are you inviting balance into your day today? 🌻🍂☀️

Beautifully said - listen into the deep wisdom of your own body, explore shapes with a curiosity and do what feels right 💚

✨ As teachers, we are not just guiding movements. We are listening to stories. Each student arrives with their own history, experiences, and relationship with their body. What looks like the same pose on the outside often carries very different meaning on the inside.

🌿 This is why teaching yoga is not about chasing a perfect shape. It is about creating space for people to explore their own version of a pose. When we remember that, we step away from rigid ideals and toward teaching that empowers, supports, and adapts.

💡 Your role as a teacher is less about correcting alignment and more about helping students discover what alignment means for them. That shift changes everything: your cues become invitations instead of commands, and your classes become places where students feel seen and safe.

🔥 When you teach from this perspective, your confidence grows too. You no longer need to know every answer. What you need is curiosity, compassion, and a willingness to meet people where they are.

What is yoga nidrā?
We have a class THIS FRIDAY
at Tutum Yoga SG17 5RP with
Rhiannon Moxham - The Rest is Yoga

🗓️ Fri 27th June
🕰️ 19.30 - 20.30

Here’s a little more about what to expect at the new monthly sessions at Tutum Yoga...

What is yoga nidrā?

- Yoga nidrā, or ‘yogic sleep’, is a deeply restful and healing guided meditation, usually practised lying down.
It’s a space between waking and sleeping, a state of calm awareness where your body can rest and your mind can gently settle.
It’s a naturally arising state of consciousness, such as day dreaming!

What can I expect during the session?

- We’ll begin by settling in, Rhiannon will introduce the session, check in with you and help you get as comfortable as possible.
You will be guided through 30-40 minutes of yoga nidrā using voice, koshi bells, a reading or poem
occasional silence and cues to bring attention to your breath .
You’ll have plenty of time afterwards to sit up slowly, no rush.

Do I need to have done yoga or meditation before?

- Not at all.
Yoga nidrā is an accessible practice - no experience required and there’s no ‘right’ way to do it. Whether you feel deeply relaxed, fall asleep, or simply lie there wondering “what’s for dinner?” -
You will give your body and mind permission to rest.

Will I fall asleep?

- You might, and that’s okay! Some people doze off, others drift in and out, and some stay awake the whole time.

However you experience it, you’ll receive the calming benefits of the practice that your body and mind need ⚖️

What are the benefits?

✨ Improve sleep
✨ Reduce stress and anxiety
✨ Calm the nervous system
✨ Support emotional balance
✨ Help your brain come up with with creative problem-solving 💡
