Periphery
Sink into this guided meditation practise to help find a little more space. Space to breathe, space for thoughts, for the mind to expand far and wide. Can we expand our awareness but yet stay rooted in our mid line, our core, our centre. Here we explore the boundaries of our awareness remembering that we will always return home to the vessel which sees (purusha).
A lovely practice to do in silence or with some gentle musical background.

The Seer
This guided meditation practise contemplates the yoga Sutra 1.3—the Self Abides in its Own Nature.
Our mind is full of waves, pattern upon patterns of reflections caught from the outside world but what arises when we really focus on what is catching all of these thoughts; the great field of awareness itself. If you find meditation quite challenging this could be for you, as its relatively short and full of contemplation.

Finding Centre
A gentle meditation which looks at finding your centre, following Ksemaraja’s sutra ‘The joy of Awareness is discovered through the expansion of the Centre’. Can you feel into your middle? The shape, form and movement of it as you sit quietly and breath towards it. Rest in the simplicity of your inner axis, where-ever that might be today.

Maya Meditation Series
#3 Power of Action
Part 3/3 of the Maya Meditation series. This guided practise looks into impurity of action: karma-mala. Like the other impurities, this consists of cognitive error whereby some actions are categorically labelled as good and others as bad. Have you ever done that in your practise? i.e labelled child-pose as weak/ bad? Inversions as good? This guided time on your mat will allow a little thinking time. Help us see that no single action is either always beneficial or always harmful in every circumstance?
Readings based on The Recognition Sutras from Christopher Wallis.

Maya Meditation Series
#2 Power of Knowing
Part 2/3 of the Maya Meditation series. This guided practise looks into the impurity of differentiation mayiya-mala - do ever just feel like you just don’t know enough? Constantly up and down with emotions of comparison? Here we sit in our completeness of knowledge, trust that our innate wisdom will be called upon when we need it most. Readings based on The Recognition Sutras from Christopher Wallis.

Maya Meditation Series
#1 Power of Will
Part 1/3 of the Maya Meditation series. This guided practise looks into the impurity of individuality, when we feel full and complete the will flows from the inside outward but when anava-maya takes hold we move into contraction, feeling separate & alone. This short practise helps us sit with our sense of oneness to the outside, encourages our ability to share, to be spontaneous in every form of our being. Can you feel it in the lightness of your breath? As your thoughts wash in and out? Here we sit in our fullness.
