Sacral chakra yin class ending
Sacral Chakra – The River Within Beneath the navel, where the quiet waters gather, there lives a river of feeling, ancient and wise. It does not ask to be controlled, only honoured. It flows through laughter, through tears, through every longing, every dream not yet spoken. This is the place of creation, of pleasure, of movement and becoming. The place where life dances before it takes form. Like moonlight upon water, your spirit is not meant to remain still forever. It is me

Between blue moon and strawberry moon changing a habit
The Habit Has Served Its Purpose A deeper Kundalini reflection There comes a moment on the path when we realise that many of our habits were once intelligent. They were not mistakes. They were strategies. Ways the mind learned to protect the heart. Ways the nervous system learned to survive uncertainty. Ways we learned to belong, achieve, avoid pain, seek approval, stay safe. The habit may have been overthinking. Controlling. Rescuing others. Perfectionism. Keeping busy. Hold

Sage in yoga
I’ve written this as I know you enjoy the sage ceremony on class . I tend to buy the Californian white sage from Etsy. For a yoga ceremony inspired by Village Rose-style gatherings—gentle, soulful, feminine, and intentional—you might introduce Californian White Sage as a ritual of transition, purification, and presence. Why White Sage? Californian White Sage (Salvia apiana) has been used traditionally for ceremonial cleansing and prayer. When used respectfully and mindfully,

Chicken soup kundalini session
Jan 19th 🌿 How to “Put Yourself First for Rest” — with Jewish examples 1) Follow the Shabbat model — rest as a command, not a luxury In Judaism, Shabbat is not a suggestion — it is a mitzvah (a sacred obligation). What this teaches us about self-care: You don’t wait until you are exhausted to rest. You schedule rest first, and build life around it. How to apply this in your own life Choose one regular “mini-Shabbat” for yourself each week, for example: • Friday evening to Sa

Kundalini opening Jan 5th 2026
Emotional Investment – The Courage to Stay Close your eyes for a moment. Let your shoulders soften. Feel your breath land in the centre of your chest. So many of us have learned to emotionally divest when life feels hard. Not because we are weak — but because at some point it felt safer to disappear than to feel. We numb with busyness. We over-function for everyone else. We collapse into scrolling, snacking, rushing, fixing, proving. And slowly… we leak our life force. But he

January kundalini play list https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2UD8Gsr06CSFtCazPbwexG?si=RC5oqFJvQR-tVfapLgx1fQ&pi=lavl6nw0QXaS5 So many of us emotionally divest when things feel hard. We numb, avoid, over-function or collapse. Today is about emotional investment — choosing to stay present when your soul asks you to rise. The new year doesn’t need a new you… it needs the real you to finally show up. ✨ Why Kundalini at Village Rose Yoga is Different Kundalini isn’t just a work

Hygge
Winter can feel like a long stretch of cold, dark days – especially when you’re craving deeper connection, rest and a bit of “what’s it all for?” time. At Village Rose Yoga, we lean into the Danish concept of hygge (pronounced hoo-gah) to soften the season. Hygge isn’t just fairy lights and pretty mugs. It’s a way of living that honours warmth, simplicity and delight in tiny everyday moments – the candle you light before practice, the quiet drive across the lanes, the cup of

The Unraveling Poem for the Heart Chakra
Poem for the heart 🌙 Poem – The Unraveling Melissa Buxton I breathe into the chambers of my heart, where shadows have been folded, stitched into silence by time. With each inhale, the threads loosen, with each exhale, the knots release. Grief softens into water, anger thins into smoke, fear dissolves into the air. My body is a riverbed, fascia unwinding like silk in the current, making space for love to flow again. Here, in this stillness, I am held. I am whole. I let go.
