Gentle Yoga at Haydock Conservative Club

Fancy getting onto your mat and enjoying some gentle movement, without feeling you have to stretch too far, or keep getting up and down off the ground all the time? Then this class is for you!

This friendly and community focused class is all about moving comfortably, feeling good and enjoying yoga together. We’ll explore gentle stretches, mobility, balance and relaxation, with comfortable alternatives to traditional postures that are a little easier on the joints.

There’s no pressure to keep up, no complicated poses and no expectation that you need to be super flexible. Just a welcoming space to move at your own pace, meet others and take a little time for yourself.

Come as you are and move your body in a way that feels right for you, I'd love to see you there.

📍 Haydock Conservative Club
🗓️ Staring Tuesday 13th October at 6:30pm
💷 £4.50

Everyone welcome, beginners especially 😊

Are you curious about Reiki? Come and discover what it’s all about…

Reiki is an ancient healing tradition that has been practised for generations, but for those who are new to it, it can sometimes seem a little mysterious, even a bit cloak and dagger!

Our Reiki Workshop is designed for anyone who has ever wondered what Reiki actually is, how it works, and what it might feel like to experience it for yourself.

Perhaps you’ve heard friends or family talk about Reiki, you’ve experienced a treatment and want to understand more, or you’re simply curious about energy healing and would like to explore it in a relaxed, welcoming environment.

This workshop is for you if you want to -

Learn more about the history and principles of Reiki
Understand how Reiki is traditionally used
Explore how Reiki may support your wellbeing and self care
Experience some simple Reiki techniques for yourself
Ask questions and discover whether Reiki is something you’d like to explore further
And the best part? There’s no commitment to becoming a Reiki practitioner. This workshop gives you the opportunity to explore Reiki and learn more about it without having to undertake the full training or certification process.

Whether you’re completely new to Reiki or have already dipped your toes into the world of energy healing, come along with an open mind and a little curiosity.

Join us for our Reiki Workshop and discover how Reiki could work for you.

Bring your blanket and pillow and join me on Sunday 1st November at St Helens Chain Lane Community Centre for a calming Winter Rest Soundbath to welcome in the dark months.

This deeply restorative Soundbath is a nourishing pause from the pace of everyday life and is a chance to quieten the mind, soothe the nervous system and reconnect with the stillness within.

Wrapped in the gentle resonance of singing bowls, chimes and healing frequencies, allow the sounds to wash over you like a warm blanket, creating space for deep rest, relaxation and release. Sound healing can offer a beautiful way to shift out of the demands of “doing” and into a more peaceful state of simply being.

Together, we’ll welcome the wisdom of winter, a season of rest, reflection and renewal. A time to turn inward, replenish your energy and prepare body, mind and spirit for the quieter months ahead.

Bring a blanket, get cosy, close your eyes and surrender to the sound.
