"We are creators & co-creators of our own lives & have the potential to provoke our deepest dreams into existence!"
[I wrote that!!! It's a Mary-Lou Quote! :-)],

Dear Friends,

Do want to know how to make your dreams a reality? Have you been wondering what is meant by, "The Secret", "Law of Attraction", "Mindful Manifestation"?

Twenty years ago this year, my yogic journey began in earnest. I didn't know this at the time: all I knew was that I was at a low point in my life, having given up a career as an operatic soloist. A trajectory to 'stardom' had given me a false sense of my deepest dreams. In a nutshell, I had no idea how to access my authentic Self.

Through a dedicated mindfulness meditation practice, I began to find that yoga was a place where stillness and movement could fold in on one another and that when they did, something magic happened! That magic, I know now, was a connection back to my true voice, my authentic Self. It was both humbling and moving. I didn't really know anyone I could talk to about what was happening but it felt BIG! This was a quiet and gradual realisation. I learned that the body holds information and energies which can be harnessed and from where we can learn to attract what we truly want from life.

I would love to guide you in a practice which has the potential to lead you back to your own inner knowing, a sense of connectedness, and authentic Self-loving.

The moment has come: I will be back in the studio this coming Thursday at 9.15am. Over the next seven Thursdays, I invite you to embark on a journey through the Chakras (energy 'wheels' which run along the spine, providing some of the body's most potent information about how we are and what we really need).

Book Studio Class | https://bookwhen.com/mary-louiseyoga | Thursdays 9.15am | Upstairs@SIX

I'll be theming the class this week on the Root Chakra: this Chakra is all about ~ our HOME BASE ~ our root system ~ INSTINCT ~ it's associated with Gems such as Ruby ~ it's linked to the Earth Element ~ Safety ~ and some really cool other stuff!
You can still book one of the remaining slots at the beautiful Upstairs@SIX Studio in Hove though my booking site [see below] and whilst you are there, you can purchase a class pass ~ £60 for SIX sessions!

Allow me to open the door to a rich, inner landscape, waiting to reveal your deepest desires to you. I can't wait to welcome you to class where we can share this journey together. Warmest wishes, Mary-Lou x

I'm frequently asked whether I teach beginners ~ ABSOLUTELY! In yoga, we are encouraged to approach each practice as if for the first time: it's called 'Beginner's Mind.' I find it is easy to envy those coming to yoga for the first time or after a time away from the mat since these moments of discovery, moment to moment, they are sometimes surprising and always precious! No matter where you are on your yoga journey, you are so welcome. I urge to you make post-Easter Monday evenings a time to cocoon yourself in a deliciously revitalising practice. Link movement to breath, mind to body, intention to attention and... the magic of yoga is yours! I'll be ready to welcome you on 19 April at 7.30pm online to share this Gentle yet powerful practice together. Class pass discount are now available too so, what are you waiting for: book your spot NOW!

Dear Friends, I’m so excited to be sharing the Egyptian Goddess Creation Myth featuring Neith in my sequences this month and can’t WAIT to see you on the virtual mat 🙏🙏🏾🤍

"Mary-Lou’s yoga classes have been a salve for the soul during the last year. I have benefitted so much from the mindful breathing practice and focused Yin poses. I would highly recommend stepping into the world of Mary-Lou’s Yin practice as she teaches it to become your own and the benefits for well-being are vast!"

Hello dear yoginis,

I just wanted to let you know that Kind Living Yoga has Partnered with Women’s Aid, a charity that helps survivors of domestic abuse.

Thanks to all our students and teacher trainees we are able to offer free yoga classes, including Yin Yoga and (What we call here at KLY) Clinical Nidra to anyone overcoming emotional trauma. So please if you are part of any charities that supports people going through any traumas please get in touch and we can get you set up with us! ❤️

Clinical Nidra is a blend of healing techniques with Hypnotherapy, hence we work with many emotional traumas survivors.

On our 250Hr Power Yoga and Yin Yoga Teacher Training we cover many of the aspects of how to use Yoga to heal emotional trauma! So if you’re interested we are now accepting applications for our YTT here in Brighton in May 2021!

It’s an only in person training (as we don’t believe our style of training can be taught online) and we offer a double Yoga alliance international accreditation in Power Vinyasa & Yin Yoga to give all new teachers a full and comprehensive skill-set to go out into the world and make a real tangible difference in people’s lives right after the training!

If you are interested in receiving our course prospectus get in touch hello@kindlivingyoga.com

Love
Marianna
