Waning moon - Stretching & Yoga Nidra practice

Ease into the energy of letting go during the waning moon with a Stretch & Yoga Nidra class aligned to the moon - to Reflect & Relax. This powerful time offers the opportunity to break free from old habits and patterns. Trust your inner guidance as Alexe guides you through a gentle stretch, journaling and Yoga Nidra practice tailored to the moon sign. Allow the soothing ambiance to enhance your reflective journey, promoting relaxation self-discovery and renewal. 

In many spiritual and esoteric traditions, the waning moon is associated with the process of letting go, releasing, and refining. The lunar cycle is often divided into different phases, with the waning moon representing the period when the illuminated part of the moon visible from Earth decreases, transitioning from the full moon back to the new moon.

During the waning moon phase, the energy is often considered conducive to introspection, reflection, and shedding what is no longer serving us. This phase is seen as an opportune time to release negative emotions, habits, or situations that may be holding us back. It's a period for letting go of anything that no longer aligns with our goals, values, or highest good.

The waning moon phase is often seen as a time for release, purification, and refinement, both on a personal level and in terms of projects or endeavors we are pursuing. Embracing the energy of the waning moon can support us in letting go of what no longer serves us and in refining our intentions and actions as we move forward in the lunar cycle.

This bespoke stretch and Yoga Nidra class is thoughtfully curated to resonate with the current energy of the moment with a gentle stretch to realise tensions and journaling prompts to guide you to let go and refine your goals to manifest abundance and let go. 

At this practice you can experience

It’s a wonderful, warm March introduction to Thomasina Lowe, who offers her breastfeeding and baby feeding expertise at Moon’s monthly New Mama & Parent One-Stop Drop-in. She also offers so much more, over to Thomasina 👇 Greetings! I’m Thomasina. I’m a registered lactation consultant and a breastfeeding peer supporter with the @bfnislington Breastfeeding Support Service. I have been a part of the Moon village since the early days, supporting mothers on their feeding journey. My personal experience of breastfeeding my son, led me to train with the @thebreastfeedingnetworkuk in 2005. I have him to thank for introducing me to a world I didn’t know existed, breastfeeding and the village that comes with it! Becoming a mother, and navigating the highs and the lows of that journey (which are ongoing!) has been transformative and underpins all the work I do with mothers and their babies. I currently work at UCLH and the Whittington, run breastfeeding clinics and visit mothers in their homes. I’ve previously worked as a person-centred counsellor. This has made the transition to supporting mothers a natural progression, supporting the potentially complex psychological demands breastfeeding can create. I also love teaching – primarily ante-natal breastfeeding workshops. I believe knowledge is power, so equipping mothers with breastfeeding education is essential for a good start on this journey. I consider it a privilege to support the families I work with during a pivotal point in their lives. Cliched perhaps, but I learned first-hand, as a new mother, that it certainly does take a village to raise a child. With this in mind, I am also delighted to be part of the @wombandbloomlondon collective, where I teach antenatal breastfeeding education sessions and support mums postnatally with breastfeeding. My aim is to instil a belief in mothers and families that they are not alone, that with the right guidance, love and care, they will find their way, feeling secure and confident in their choices, and ultimately enjoying being new mothers with their baby.
