Yoga for Anxiety: A Compassionate Yoga Practice (Copy)

Held at Trika Yoga on North St, Bedminster, Bristol

2 hour workshop

£25 per person

Anxiety is not something we need to get rid of — it’s something we can learn to listen to, move with, and soften around. This 2-hour workshop invites you to explore how yoga accompanied with somatic practices can help you meet anxiety with gentleness and curiosity, creating space for balance, connection, and ease.

Together, we’ll begin with a grounding Hatha yoga flow, designed to meet your nervous system exactly where it is. Through gentle, intuitive movement, we’ll explore how to shift from states of high anxiety toward calm regulation, or from shutdown back into a sense of aliveness and connection. We'll pause for journalling, sharing, knowledge sharing and self-reflection. We’ll close with deeply restorative postures, offering your body a chance to soften, integrate, and rest fully — allowing everything we’ve explored to settle.

Throughout the workshop, we’ll be gifted with a space of co-regulation — the quiet magic of practising and sharing alongside others. Being witnessed and supported in community can help our bodies and minds remember that we are not alone, and that we are safe to be as we are.

This workshop is rooted in compassion, kindness, and lived experience. My own journey with anxiety has shaped how I teach and hold space — I know how overwhelming it can feel, and how powerful it is to find moments of calm and connection through yoga. I share these practices not from a place of having it all figured out, but from a deep empathy and understanding of what it means to live alongside anxiety, and to keep meeting it with tenderness.

You don’t need to have a formal diagnosis of anxiety to attend — this space is for anyone who experiences anxious feelings, restlessness, or unease, and wants to explore ways of befriending that energy through yoga, breath, and gentle self-enquiry.

Drawing on my formal Yoga for Anxiety training, my trauma-informed background, and experience as a trainee psychotherapist, I aim to create a space where you can feel safe, supported, and at ease in your own body.


Please note: I am a trauma-informed yoga teacher, not a yoga therapist. This workshop is designed as an educational and supportive space, not as therapy or a replacement for medical care.
