The ups and downs of the nervous system and how to bring it back to homeostasis - calm.
- £35 -
Suitable for all levels of student.
Each moment of each day your nervous system is on the look-out for you. Its job is to keep you safe and it will do whatever it needs to protect you from harm….
... however, external and environmental factors — trauma, stress, sub-optimal body alignment, can mean that your nervous system is often dis-regulated.
When your nervous system gets stuck in dis-regulation, what happens? Depression, apathy, rage, foggy brain, bad digestion, inability to experience pleasure… the list is LONG.
This workshop is a blend of Forrest Yoga, basic anatomy of nervous system function, suitable for all levels.
Together we’ll explore how the nervous system functions, how it gets dis-regulated, the symptoms to look out for when you’re dis-regulated and importantly HOW to get back to homeostasis — an active, alert or calm state.
You’ll enjoy a nervous-system-soothing Forrest Yoga class and learn how Forrest Yoga is an excellent tool for regulating your nervous system.

I'm a multi-disciplinary practitioner. I uniquely combine my skills to help old_people feel empowered to take ownership of their own well-being — physical, emotional, Spiritual.
My specialism is pelvic health — education, deep connection, scar tissue remediation, prenatal/postnatal yoga and movement for optimal pelvic function.
I am fascinated by and passionate about all things pelvis-related. As a Poppy Perinatal teacher trainer and pelvic health educator, I prioritise the interconnections between pelvic function (biomechanics), health (biochemistry) and the deep magick of the pelvis in my teaching. When interwoven, these elements make up the biomagickal pelvis — a term I've created to describe the power and potential held in the pelvis.
My passion for pelvic health arose from my own pregnancy loss, subsequent full-term pregnancy, giving birth and postpartum recovery. I have had the honour and pleasure to study with top practitioners in this field — Catherine Allen, Dr Kathy Dooley, Christine Kent and Dr Ellen Heed who is my mentor for Scar Tissue Remediation and Management (STREAM).
I regularly work with clients with pelvic organ prolapse, stress incontinence, post-birth scarring and other pelvic floor complications. Our work together empowers them to heal their physical and emotional bodies naturally (yes — naturally!).
What to bring:

Due to the nature of the Crescent Bakery building, it's ideal to wear layers of clothing for cooler / warmer fluctuations.
