Movement for Calmis an exercise-based workshop exploring yogic and muscle relaxation techniques from a range of practices. The aim is to release tension within the body. When we are stressed or anxious, we produce adrenaline, the 'fight' or 'flight' chemical response. Movement for Calm will help explore ways to restore balance to the chemical reactions produced in the body, loosening muscles and in turn calming both body and mind. This workshop has been developed for forward-thinking organisations wanting to make a real commitment to improving workplace wellbeing. This workshop will help participants identify areas of tension in the body, and learn exercises and movement-based sequences to release anxiety and stress caused by unnecessary muscle tension. The aim is that people leave the workshop relaxed and refreshed, ready to take on the toughest of corporate challenges.

22nd December FREE: MAKE YOUR YULE CANDLE

5.0(42)

By Art and Spirituality CIC

Celebrate Yule with us at our Candle-Making Workshop, guided by artist and facilitator Eugenia Rosa, on Sunday 22nd December from 1-3 PM at the Art & Spirituality Centre in Edinburgh. With her knowledge of folk traditions and ritual, Eugenia will lead you in crafting your own beeswax candles—perfect for bringing light and warmth into your home as we welcome the winter solstice. Each candle you create can be infused with your own wishes and intentions for the season, making it a truly personal addition to your holiday rituals. Why make candles for Yule? In ancient traditions, Yule marks the rebirth of the sun and the gradual return of longer days. Lighting a handmade candle symbolises calling forth new beginnings, peace, and protection during the colder months. What to Expect: Craft with Intention: Use natural beeswax and wicks to make beautifully scented candles, personalised with essential oils or symbolic colours. Relaxing & Festive Atmosphere: Embrace a cosy winter setting with other warm-hearted community members. Symbolic Touches: Feel free to bring along small items to press into your candles or attach as a keepsake, making them even more meaningful. Spaces are limited; book your spot early for a radiant start to the season at the Art & Spirituality Centre. This class is sponsored by The Volant Charitable Trust Small Grants Programme, administered by Foundation Scotland.

Popular themes tend to be complete relaxation sessions, stress relief, recharge & re-energizing, and events around the time of a new moon (perfect for setting new intentions) or a full moon (a great opportunity to let go of things that no longer serve us). I have two beautiful venues that I regularly use in Bournemouth and in Southbourne. I often use these for private group sessions and provide everything that is needed for you and your friends to enjoy a magical sound and vibration journey like no other.

Bonnyrigg

I have worked as a Holistic Beauty Therapist for over 25 years offering a sanctuary in my home based treatment room to relax pamper and indulge yourself in a spa style treatment at a fraction of a spa cost. I believe looking after our self is essential to our well being and functionality and shouldn’t just be restricted to a birthday or special occasion treat. In my youth I was a competitive gymnast and carried on training into my late 20s. Fitness and health have always been important to me and my family so understanding the value of good nutrition, regular activity and movement, also relaxation and rehabilitation time have always been paramount. My aim has always been to nurture the whole self as one , Mind, Body and Soul. My discovery of yin yoga and Pilates came from my search for something to control joint and muscle pain and reduced mobility due to fibromyalgia and osteo arthritis and perimenopause. For me it was an overwhelming response. The physical and mental benefits over time gave me such a great feeling of achievement. I had felt old before my time. My pain was constant, fatigue plagued me , my mobility was getting worse every winter and my mental health had written myself off. Knowing the positive impact on my own health encouraged me to train as a yin yoga instructor. It compliments my holistic beliefs and the satisfaction of gaining the ability to still be able even on my sore days to move more freely and control my discomforts. Not to forget the more positive mindset and confidence it has given me . That’s why I’m passionate about introducing you to Yin and Well-Being yoga and sharing the positive benefits far and wide.
