‘Yoga has a valuable contribution to make in addressing climate change, the defining issue of our time’. Amina Mohammed, UN Deputy Secretary-General, on International Day of Yoga, 2019

This workshop will help us all to consider what those connections and contributions might be. Helen will facilitate exploration and discussion and consider how Yoga’s ancient wisdom teachings could help today’s Yoga stretch beyond individual health and wellbeing towards planetary health and wellbeing, from ‘me’ to ‘we’. Then Laura will offer a guided relaxation and pranayama session to help establish balance in our future intentions.
