I recently returned from the first ever Unmasked Man summit - a mens retreat with over 50 men involved!

I was given the responsibility of leading a 'pod'; guiding a group of men through deeply healing 'process work' which gives men the opportunity to release wounds, emotions and traumas from the past, in a beautifully loving and supportive way.

I was confident going into this but I was surprised by how natural and effective my facilitation was - i loved it, and felt a deep humble pride and gratitude for this work and experience.

I look forward to brining this work back to Harrogate and supporting men more frequently.

If you are in the Harrogate/Yorkshire area and would like to join our monthly circle, give me a shout on [email protected]

Love and Blessings,
James Gopala

Yoga citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ is the foundational definition of yoga, found in the second verse of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali (Sutra 1.2).

It translates as: "Yoga is the stilling (or cessation) of the fluctuations of the mind.

I love to teach. Yoga is not just a job to me but a deep life calling and way of being🙏🏼🤍
