WEEKLY EVENTS
Gentle Yoga...
Weekly gentle stretching & exercise.
Zoom | Every Monday | 12:30pm - 1:30pm
Join us for some gentle stretching and exercises every Monday on Zoom.
Gentle yoga is a less intense, slower yoga practice: it generally includes an emphasis on stretching, meditation and relaxation. You’ll typically move at a slower, more comfortable pace that reduces stress and strain on joints and muscles, making it a perfect practice for just about anyone of any age or physical ability.
Adaptations can be made to suit each person; some exercises can be carried out standing or sitting or on the floor.
Sessions are designed to be enjoyable and fun and always end with a 15- minute relaxation.

Creative Writing...
Weekly friendly creative writing group
St Margaret's House, 151 London Rd, EH7 6AE | Every Tuesday | 11:00am - 1:00pm
Our friendly creative writing group led by Laure Paterson.
Every Tuesday morning at 11am we get together to explore fresh creative directions in a fun and comfortable environment. Poetry, short fiction, plays, novels, personal essays, even songs - all of these can be considered as part of the rich landscape of potential creative expression through the written word. Whatever the spark, there is a pathway for us to express it in a playful and enjoyable way.
No preparation is required: the purpose of these workshops is to surprise ourselves!
These sessions are easy and gentle and you don’t need any prior writing experience - just paper and a pen or pencil.
Relaxation...
Zoom | Every Wednesday | 7:00pm - 8:00pm
Weekly online relaxation session
Join us for these online sessions each week and take the opportunity to make some time just for you.
Relaxation is more than a state of mind: it physically changes the way your body functions. Breathing slows, blood pressure and oxygen consumption decreases; there’s an increased sense of well-being. During these sessions we will take part in a guided relaxation, lying or sitting down and getting cosy using blankets and cushions. You will be guided through a scripted relaxation to bring calmness and slow down. This guided relaxation makes use of breathing exercises and provides techniques to help us feel grounded and in control.
