Through teaching yoga I am fortunate to see how the effects of the practice help to counter chronic pain, illness, and stresses to bring balance and harmony back into our lives.

It’s the first of February, and with the sun and earth warming this morning, and the moon full, I felt some creativity stirring and thought I’d share some old photograms I made in a former life!

Photograms are images made by placing an object onto photo-sensitive paper and exposing it to light in a darkroom, then developing and fixing the image so it does not fade over time. I made many of these while I was at art school, and later when I taught photography and art to children in arts centres and schools. This was 30-ish years ago, before the age of digital photography (my degree specialism in Fine Art Photography wasn’t exactly future-proof!), when analogue processes and darkrooms were synonymous with the medium itself.

I was deeply inspired by surrealist artists like Man Ray, who explored themes of the unconscious and ethereal realms and was intrigued by the immediacy of the art form. From my very first time in the darkroom, I became enchanted by the almost incandescent light that seemed to arise from a two-dimensional surface, and by the way the force of light could shine and create translucency out of shadowy depths.

The first image is why I wanted to post this today. A snowdrop, representative of the first stirrings of spring. The Celtic festival of Imbolc marks this moment through ancient customs and practices, rich with folklore and stories of hope, protection, purity and the gentle stirrings of pure potential. The second may be a borage flower, I noticed the first one in my garden today. The third a lily, long held as an emblem of peace.

The symbolism of the snowdrop feels especially poignant right now. Despite the harshest conditions, this wee flower shows a delicate yet definite resilience, weathering even the harshest of storms. Yoga has taught me that the same force of Prana Shakti that propels and sustains this flower is the same force that propels and sustains us all. So during the winter submerged in the shadows, it’s reassuring to trust that there is a loving, sustaining force at work, one that unifies us, and quietly brings forth the light.

This year’s Imbolc gathering is now fully booked in person, but you’re warmly invited to join online from wherever you are in the world.

Afterwards, you’ll be sent a high-quality recording of the full evening, professionally filmed and shared via Vimeo, so you can return to it in your own time.

Imbolc marks the first quiet turning of the year:
light beginning to return, hope stirring beneath the surface, life re-emerging from winter’s depth.

& would love you to join us for this immersive evening.

We’ll weave together:
– seasonal ritual magic and Scottish folk tradition
– a soft, emerging mandala flow
– live, evocative fiddle music
– deeply restorative yoga nidra rooted in purification and renewal
- seasonal scran (recipes for those online!) & good craic 🤩

A thoughtful, creative celebration of Brìde and the early promise of spring curated to be experienced live or revisited on replay again and again.

Online access: £32

Happy New Year lovely souls!☀️🩷🌕

What a beautiful day it’s been! That Ne’erday walk was a tonic after all the fun festivities over the past month!

While there’s lots of chat about resolutions and starting new things I thought I’d like to share a very gentle mid-winter offering with you 🤍

Inspired always by the incredible teachings of Ram Dass, his words align well with my intentions this year- ‘I would like my life to be a statement of love and compassion- and where it isn’t, that’s where my work lies.’

That work doesn’t always require effort, sometimes it asks for rest.

So if you’re feeling a little fatigued after this festive season and crave a sense of hibernation, or you just need to reset, Yoga Nidra can be a deeply supportive practice at this time of year.

Yoga Nidra can help:
• calm the nervous system
• support deeper, more restorative sleep
• ease mental and emotional overload
• offer steadiness during times of transition

I’ve recorded a New Year Yoga Nidra and, if you feel it could support you, I’d love to share it with you; whether you’re new to a yoga practice or part of our long-standing community.

👉 To receive the recording:
comment “nidra” below
or DM me the word nidra

I’ll reply and ask for an email address so I can send it directly to you 📧

A wee invitation to rest- and to begin the year from a place of care.

Sending love to you & yours

Here we are! Winter Solstice is the year’s deepest pause, the longest night, when the sun appears to “stand still”, and then, almost imperceptibly, the light begins its slow but sure return.

In our final week of classes I offered cosy, ritual-inspired practices- especially nourishing for those of us who could feel the season’s busy-ness and to-do lists lodged within the body, mind and breath. The Wednesday class was recorded and comprises part gentle movement, part deep rest, threaded with seasonal reflection and inspiration. You’ll be guided to slow down, much more than in other seasons, and to reconnect with the quiet intelligence nature models at this time of year: release, stillness, and the promise of renewal.
Woven through are hints of Scottish midwinter tradition and the old symbolism of evergreens (holly, mistletoe, ivy) reminders that life continues beneath the surface even when everything looks dormant. The practice invites you to settle your nervous system, soften the body, and plant a simple intention for the months ahead… like a seed held in dark soil, gathering strength before the first signs of spring.
Perfect for seasoned yogis and complete beginners who are drawn to sacred ritual, deep rest, and the light of self-enquiry.

✨ Winter Solstice Class Recording available now-link in bio. Class time:75min (including a 20min yoga nidra). You’ll need 2 blankets, a mat or rug, bolster/pillow and a space at the wall.

Some pics of class snippets- and post solstice gaitherins 🤗 Massive amounts of gratitude to each and every one of you who have shared time with me at Prana this year 🙏♥️

Private Yoga Sessions • Starting January 2026
For those who want a practice that meets them exactly where they are, I’m opening my 1:1 and small-group diary for the new year.

Private sessions offer something that’s hard to find elsewhere: time, attention, and practice shaped specifically for your body, your stage of life, and the direction you want to grow. This approach is rooted in the classical tradition- where yoga was often adapted to the individual- and is also supported by contemporary science, women’s health research and 16 years years of teaching experience (plus the past 9 years of training 200 & 300 level teachers), and having learned from some of the world’s greats over the years.

Whether you’re beginning, refining, recovering, navigating hormonal shifts, building strength, or deepening subtle-body study, private work allows us to progress with clarity and depth.

Sessions are available in-studio or on Zoom, and spaces are intentionally limited to keep the work personal and sustainable. January bookings are now open, with an introductory offer.

If this feels like the right moment to invest more fully in your practice, you’re welcome to enquire or email me connect@carlawebster.yoga

Samhuinn Reflections & What’s Next… 🕯️

My heart is so full after our Samhuinn gathering, like I’ve had a thousand warm hugs!

What a night of stories, magic, honouring our ancestors, flowing through spirals, melodic sounds, deep rest and warm nourishment as we crossed the threshold into the Cailleach’s season together.

Deep gratitude to Geo for sharing her passion and wisdom of Scottish folk practice, to Jessica Kerr for the enchanting cello soundscapes that carried us between worlds,
and to Denise for beautifully tending the magic behind the scenes. I loved weaving a symbolic spiralling flow and deep rest, honouring this turning of the year, and I’m deeply grateful for the community of incredible people who joined us- you continue to shape and sustain all we do at Prana through your kindness and connection.

We also had folk joining us from Ireland, the USA and Canada, as well as our in-studio crew, a huge circle without borders. The recording of the live event will be available to purchase in the next few days for anyone who’d like to revisit or experience it anew. 📽️

Swipe to the final slides for some gorgeous, heart-felt reflections and reviews from those who joined us. ♥️

And… our next gathering will celebrate Imbolc- light emerging from the dark 🌱
Details coming soon.

With love and gratitude,
C 🤍

Hi folks 👋

If you’d like to join us for our special Samhuinn event this Friday 7th Nov at 6.30 you can do so online- either live via zoom or via a recording which you can replay up till the winter solstice ❄️

At Samhuinn we celebrated and honored our ancestors, gathered around bonfires, made protection spells, and had similar practices to that of our modern day Halloween celebrations too. At this event Geo will be talking about the history of the festival and practices to honour our ancestors, I’ll be offering a movement, breath work and meditative practice to symbolise the waning and spiralling energy of this season while Jessica will be playing some atmospheric cello to fill the room with moving sounds.
Well finish with some craic & scran and an opportunity to connect as we explore the modern relevance of this ancient folk festival.

PS the ancient Cadzow oaks are a wonderful source of ancestral power, some are estimated to be 800years old! 🌳 🌀 🧬

Have you ever felt that pull to learn more, to experience more depth, more clarity, more understanding of the subject you love? If so, you’re in luck! In just 4 weeks time, I’ll be offering two courses designed to support you on your path.

🍂 Why start now? The season of Autumn invites us to slow down, gather energy, and lean into what truly nourishes. Just like the wee squirrel gathering acorns for the winter, now is the perfect season to gather the wisdom that will sustain and support you through all life’s seasons. 🐿️✨📚

🌱 Pre-Foundation Course (Oct–Dec 2025)
For students ready to build confidence, explore philosophy, and grow a sustainable home practice.

🌀 Chakras & Subtle Body Training (Oct 2025–May 2026)
For teachers ready to refine their wisdom. A seven-module journey through the chakras as living, embodied gateways.

Both courses are small, intentional, and guided with care. If you’ve been feeling the call to deepen your study, this is your season. 🍁

🌱 Pre-Foundation details – [link in bio]
🌀 Chakra Training details – [link in bio]

I’ll be the lead teacher on both courses, with Maureen Thorpe and Denise Bryson offering their wisdom and support on the Pre-Foundation course.

I’m so looking forward to gathering with you and supporting you on this beautiful journey. ✨
