An Integrated Path

Introduction to Mindfulness Workshop:Finding your anchor

Are you interested in cultivating a kinder relationship with the demands of the modern world?

This is an invitation to move from a reactive "doing" mode into a resilient "being" mode. By integrating neuroscience with foundational mindfulness and the practice of meeting ourselves with internal warmth and patience, we facilitate a space for you to cultivate the skills to meet life’s challenges with a clear mind and a steady heart.

Anchored in the felt sense of the body, this path supports you in navigating daily life with a more grounded presence—wherever you find yourself.

"Mindfulness is a lifelong journey that is practiced one moment at a time. The most important moment of that journey is always the one where you choose to show up for yourself."

— Jon Kabat-Zinn

The Roadmap

The Introduction: Finding Your Anchor

We facilitate an initial space to explore the foundational move from "doing" into "being." This introductory workshop offers a practical entry point into mindfulness, blending modern research and insights with the felt sense of the body to help you establish a grounded presence in your daily life.

The Three-Week Container: Nurturing the Foundation

Following the introduction, we invite you into a dedicated three-week container—a space to embody your practice more fully. Together, we nurture a sense of curiosity and non-judgment, allowing for the space to see things as they are.

Whether you are beginning again with a fresh perspective or nurturing an existing practice, this journey offers the support to weave these qualities into the very fabric of your lived experience.

This gathering invites us to step out of the ego mind, where we can connect ton some powerful vibrations and allow them to flow through us. 

This is an invitation to a collective opening and surrendering into the space of the heart. The sound of Sanskrit, mantras and sacred songs can connect deeply with many of us and to the deepest parts of ourselves.

Singing/chanting, offers us a chance to bring awareness into the present, to practice deep listening and connect with sounds from the heart. 

This is not a performance. There are no expectations.

This is a heart centred aspect of yoga where we can remember and reconnect to our truth. It offers us a way back to our hearts.

Nia is a holistic movement practice that blends dance, martial arts, and healing arts into a joyful, deeply embodied experience.

Rather than following strict choreography, Nia invites you to listen inward, to move from sensation, breath, emotion, and impulse. Each class becomes a moving meditation, supporting presence, creativity, and connection between body, mind, and spirit.

Through dynamic yet accessible movement, music, and guided awareness, participants are encouraged to explore how the body feels rather than how it looks. This cultivates greater self-awareness, nervous system regulation, and a sense of freedom within the body.

Nia supports strength, mobility, emotional expression, and energetic flow, while creating a safe, inclusive space for all bodies and levels of experience. Movements can be adapted to suit individual needs, allowing you to move at your own pace and honour your body’s wisdom.

Expect moments of play, grounding, flow, and stillness. A practice that mirrors life itself and invites you into deeper relationship with yourself.

No previous dance or movement experience required.

Our Spring into Sadhana Challenge will culminate on September 21st with the Spring Equinox Community Gathering Bring & Share. This will be a light-hearted community gathering, we will do a few simple rituals to honour the turning of the season and afterwards we'll have a community gathering and communally created bring & share.

This event is completely free of charge, we simply ask that all attendees bring a bite to share for the bring & share. All community members are invited to attend this, whether or not you’ve joined the challenge or have an active pass. We just want to connect and see you!

Step into spring with a nourishing day retreat at Kāya Shala Yoga. Guided by Dr. Nicky van der Hulst and Christie Holt, we’ll spend the day tending to body and mind with practices that support a sense of balance as the seasons turn. Welcoming the light and renewal of spring.

Soulful Sadhana is a 90 minute masterclass where we explore an expansive scope of the yoga practice. The physical practice (asana) is only one small piece of yoga, an important part but not where our exploration ends. So in this class we dive a bit deeper, exploring more philosophy, pranayama and meditation as well.

I will choose a theme/concept/teaching to explore and the class will essentially be a soulful masterclass orbiting around that. These classes may include; a short philosophy lecture, meditation, mantra, pranayama, asana, yin postures, nidra, and/or journalling. On September 14th we’ll explore the fifth of five Pancha Maha Bhutas, Akasha - Space Element.

This will be a special edition, the space element constitutes sound. So Trisha will come with her sound bowls and we’ll get a mini sound bath at the end of our session.

This class is dedicated to soul care. There is a poetic element to this practice, with a spiritual undertone. After practice we have herbal tea and pull a card from a deck.
