Mindfulness with Bernadette
Learn practices to help quieten the mind, reducing anxiety & stress levels. In our busy, capital city there can often seem to be no time to literally take a deep breath.
Many of us sit all day facing computer screens and find ourselves multi-tasking more & more, whether at home or work or both.Our sleep, appetite, immune system & peace is easily scattered. It doesn’t have to be like this…
Bernadette offers 1-1 Mindfulness sessions in your own home or local yoga studio. She can also offer to small/large groups either informally or to corporate clients. Please contact her for more information.

Samhain Yoga & Ceremony
Embracing the Dark
Date: Sunday 9 November 2025
Time: 10:00-13:30
Fee: £53
Venue: Blackheath Complementary Health Centre SE3 7DH.
We have now entered the darkest part of the darkest part of the year. The time of the ancient Mother Goddess, the Crone, the Cailleach. Samhain.
A time of the Void, of not knowing.
It heralds the beginning of the Wheel’s turning. All life begins in the dark
We often try to avoid staying with the darkness, uncertainty, flux.
Yet, by yielding to and accepting this time in Nature, and indeed, within ourselves, can be deeply rewarding and transformative. We allow a vulnerability to look within and let go, to honour our ancestors.
Our yoga practice will be a blend of slow flow, melding into Yin and restorative practices. There will be some steadying pranayama and an extending Yoga Nidra. After refreshments we continue with guidance in a hand massage routine. And finally, a simple ceremony to honour the festival of Samhain.
All yoga equipment and refreshments provided. Booking is essential: info@peacefulpractice.co.uk
