Learning about these 4 Inner Seasons of the Menstrual Cycle helps to demonstrate how the body’s needs and energy levels change throughout month (well until Perimenopause hits which is a whole other series).
This might explain why you sometimes feel different when you try and stick with your regular yoga practice each time that you practice yoga.
You think you have to keep pushing through a strong practice even when you are tired.
You are scared to take a day off your mat.
You don’t understand why somedays you stay in Tree Pose for ages and others you are wobbling all over the place.
We are not meant to be the same all of the time. To push at the same intensity all of the time. We are supposed to rest and take breaks, so that we can put that peak energy to its best use.
When you learn how to tap into your own unique rhythm you can give yourself permission to move in a way that feels right for your body and mind on any given day.

Gentle & Restorative for Deep Rest Classes
These LIVE Classes align with the New Moon of the Lunar Cycle, which mirrors many of the energies of your Inner Winter (your period). You’re energy may be lower, sleep disrupted, feeling some discomfort in the body. This is a time to lean into gentle movement to release stress and tension from the body and rest deeply in restorative poses and yoga nidra meditation.
You don’t have to be in this phase of your cycle to enjoy this class, please come along with an open mind and then use the recording again when do have your next period. Perhaps then reflect on the two different experiences to help you tap deeper into what your body is craving at each phase of your cycle.
Nourish Your Body for a Healthy Cycle
These LIVE Classes align with the Full Moon of the Lunar Cycle, which mirrors the rising energy of the cycle in your Inner Summer (time of Ovulation). You may feel more playful in your practice, have more energy, feel lighter and brighter. This is time to invite some fun into your practice and to nourish your digestive and reproductive organs in particular, to keep the energy flowing more freely in these areas of the body.
These classes will also end with an extended relaxation and yoga nidra meditation to help settle any feels of feeling frazzled or wired at this time in nature and the cycle, when all of the doing can sometimes feel a bit much and hard to pull the breaks at the right time for you.
If you do happen to be on your period this week please come along and take what you need from the class or chose to playback the Gentle & Restorative Class again, saving this for when you feel more in need of it.
There is no right or wrong way to do these classes. They are here to meet you where you need them too. You are always your own best teacher. I am here to offer invitations to move and rest and please trust in your body over the weeks. This may feel difficult at the start and I am here to offer you as much support as you need along the way.
