These free classes are being held to aid Meditation and Mindfulness to aid general health and wellbeing.
Traditionally, yoga asana (postures) had been used to aid practitioners to sit in meditation for more extended periods. Meditation is becoming well known as an aid for stress, anxiety and depression, through its effect on the central nervous system. Regular mediation can help create changes in the brain over time and improve outcomes for health conditions and mental health.
During these short sessions, we will work with some simple practices to help the mind and body. It will include a mixture of seated meditation, supine/supported practice (lying down), breath awareness practices, breath control practices and guided meditation. You will always determine what options you wish to take.
TEACHER: You will be guided by Miranda Mitchell, an 800-hour trained (Certificate IV) yoga teacher, with over 10 year's experience as a classroom teacher. She has been teaching yoga at studios and health clubs around Toowoomba, and at Kickstart Martial Arts and Yoga, since 2015. Miranda is extending her studies to specialize in Meditation and Yoga Therapy. During her course of further study, these classes will be free.
WHEN: Classes are run most Thursday mornings during the school term from 6:00am-6:30am (additional times may be available upon request). Children are welcome if they are able to sustain quiet focus.
VENUE/LOCATION: Classes are held at Miranda’s home-based yoga, martial arts and personal training studio, Kickstart Martial Arts and Yoga, fully equipped with props to support your practice. Please request the exact address, near the Toowoomba City Golf Club, when you book.
