Here I am in One-Legged Peacock Pose from my last visit to Pathos, Cyprus, with a poem about meditation.

If you want to experience meditation in a group setting join us for yoga which starts every week with a 15-20 minute meditation where we’ll practise some posture, breath, and points of focus such as visualisation and mantra. Each week we practise becoming absorbed in a beautiful feeling which calms the mind and elevates the heart. Yoga is every week at Culcheth Methodist Church Hall and on Zoom on 8-9.30pm, with a unique blend of inspired meditation, full body activation, and deep relaxation, over a full 90-minutes, based on decades teaching and meditating at retreats in India, Switzerland, the US, and Europe.

Reiki training with me in Birchwood is available on request for Reiki 1, 2 and Master Level.

Busy end of week giving Massage Therapy and Reiki Treatments - 16 treatments as part of a Relaxation Day for nurses in a secure unity, and 3 in my Therapy Room in Birchwood. Here's what Judy had to say after her first experience of massage:

'To be honest I was nervous about coming. I wasn't going to come. It was only the pain that made me. Now I feel so different. I'm a complete convert. I don't know why I didn't do this years ago!

Due to requests I'm now offering 90 minute treatments as well as 1 hour treatments in my Therapy Room in Birchwood. Still just £30 for one hour and £45 for 90 minutes. We can focus on a full body massage, or a blend of different Therapies such as Reiki, Back Massage and Reflexology to help you heal and transform. Book online from my website at www.lightholistics.com to check availability.

Have a great day!

Our bodies age, as life reveals,
Our minds can keep an even keel,
Our hearts are as young, as we feel,
Our souls are timeless, ageless, still.

Here I am in Pathos, Cyprus, from last week, flexing my back Cat Pose style in Wide-Legged forward bend, flowing into headstand with some creative words about ageing. Whenever I practise a yoga sequence, I feel decades younger. It’s amazing how what we do with our body affects how we feel, and even how old we feel. I’m not a big fan of marking particular ages with big celebrations, because I honestly never feel the age that our natural cycles say my body is. Time, as Einstein said, is relative, and not even an objective reality. The cycles of our solar system are outwardly very real of course, and these are the basis for our ‘age’, which we record, discuss, and celebrate or regret! Our chronological age is different to our biological age. The current view is we can shave up to 20 years off our biological age by changes in behaviour. So, if we celebrate our 60th birthday, we might be impressing on our consciousness an age that is 20 years older than our biological age. My age of course is not limited to my body. I do not identify my sense of self just with my body. More powerful than our body is our mind. Our minds, experts now think, can actually improve for most of our life. More powerful than our mind is our heart - a more reliable indicator of what we actually do in life. From our heart identity we get the phrase; ‘we’re as old as we feel’. And beyond all these are our soul and spirit, who source and presence are timeless. So how old am I? As old, young, or ageless, as my last breath, and the Self I identified with at that moment. 🙏🔥🧡🔥🙏

Wishing you a wonderful Christmas!

We spend so much money on things over Christmas, not all of which are great for our health, but not on quality experiences that do boost our health and wellbeing. Massage helps relieve stress, lower inflammation, and boost muscle recovery, as well as creating mental highs that can be transformative. If you’re looking for a treatment over Christmas, I still have some appointments in my Therapy Room. Treat yourself by booking me online from my website for Reiki, Reflexology, Aromatherapy and Massage Therapy – including Deep Tissue and Relaxing Swedish massage.

Here's what Jenny had to say: 'My shoulder was constantly giving me pain. It felt ace for ages after your massage!'

Our yoga classes are back on January 13th at Culcheth Methodist Church Hall and on Zoom on January 15th 8-9.30pm, delivering a unique blend of inspired meditation, full body activation, and deep relaxation, over a full 90-minute class, based on decades teaching and meditating at retreats in India, Switzerland, the US, and Europe.

Reiki training available on request for Reiki 1, 2 and Master Level.

Join me for 10 minutes of conscious relaxation using the ancient yogic technique called Yoga Nidra – or conscious sleep, from a wonderfully calm day by Lake Wasdale. In this free video from my YouTube channel @ yoga with Stephen, we relax the body, deepen the breath, repeat a short affirmation, rotate our consciousness, and become aware of heat in and around the body, visualised as golden light. Enjoy! 🙏🔥🧡🔥🙏

Headstand flow from Lake Wasdale last week, during a moment of calm weather!

We all suffer from physical stress and mental trauma. Yoga, meditation, and Holistic Therapies help to balance the body’s nervous system, restoring our natural balance, and calm the agitated mind, restoring our focus and vision. Blending a balanced body with a calm and focused mind, we start to experience what psychologists call the flow state. Yogis, mystics, and contemplatives call this experience ‘opening the heart’, which makes itself known through presence, elevated feelings, lightness of being, vibrant magnetic currents, feelings of connectedness and communion, and spiritual qualities such as peace, love, and inspiration. 🔥

You can join us every Tuesday night at Culcheth Methodist Church Hall for 90 minutes of meditation, yoga movement, and deep relaxation for just £5. No need to book for our mixed ability walk-in class. Or if you prefer to practise in the comfort of your own home, join us Thursday nights on zoom. For massage therapy, including Deep Tissue and Relaxing Swedish Massage, Reflexology, Aromatherapy, Indian Head Massage and Reiki, you can book me at my Birchwood Therapy Room, using the online booking system at www.lightholistics.com

Happy Halloween and All Saints! 🧡

Stephen 🙏

Strength comes from momentum
Steady focus, heartfelt dreams
A seed, a spark, we feel within us
That slowly grows into a tree.

We flourish when we pursue our heart felt impulses, with focus, dedication, passion, and love. We regress when we obsess over danger and threats, othering other people, beings, and even situations, imprisoning ourselves in fight or flight reactions. Yoga, meditation, and Holistic Therapies are examples of activities that help us breathe and reconnect to those soft, beautiful, impulses, rising from within, inspiring us to take the next steps towards a better world.

Join us Tuesday nights in Culcheth and Thursdays on zoom for yoga – 8-9.30pm, and book me online for Reiki, Reflexology, Aromatherapy, Indian Head Massage, Deep Tissue and relaxing Swedish Massage treatments in my Therapy Room in Birchwood.

Here I am in a simple kneeling lateral stretch from my last trip to Lake Wasdale, with a short poem about unity. The vision of yoga is unity, as an experience, rather than an ideology. It starts within us, between our body, mind, and soul, and then expands outwards, seeing in all beings the same spark we feel within. A great yoga sequence facilitates a healthy body, a focused mind, and a happy soul, and helps us treat life with greater calmness, compassion, and creativity.
