Yoga & Meditation with Lisa
Connection of body, breath, heart, mind and soul.
“As a young girl I had a recurring dream of being embodied in a huge mechanical robot. From my seat in the control centre the movement of limbs and parts were jerky, rigid and uncoordinated. As the dream repeated itself I became aware that I had the power to transform each movement so that it was fluid and seamless, skilful and efficient. In the same manner my yoga practice as it has evolved over the years has created an experience of ease, elegance and coherence through the connection of body, breath, heart, mind and soul. The practice becomes devotional and is offered with humble gratitude to the highest most divine purpose of human experience in the spirit of love, union and transformation.”
Gentle Guidance
Lisa, John and Rob are delighted to and look forward to sharing with you their many years of combined experience of study and teaching in the fields of yoga, meditation and mindfulness, yoga philosophy, coaching and mentoring.

Our reflections…
“When our hearts are ready for anything, we are free to love without holding back, free to reach out when others are hurting, and free to celebrate the beauty and mystery of our world. We are free to live from the creative and boundless awareness that is our true nature.”
— Tara Brach from Trusting the Gold
This piece is titled Tat Tvam Asi, which in Sanskrit means, Thou Art That. It is a statement that reminds us that our individual self is an expression of our universal self and that no separation exists between them. Meditate and breathe with the Shakuhachi music and let it take you to the inner realms of your own beautiful being.
