Autumn Releasing

Practices to release, renew and restore

“Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go' 

~ Unknown


Autumn is the season of transition. Big changes are happening in nature as she gets ready to release and let go. By following the wisdom of this seasons we can learn that:

  • surrendering and letting go can be really beautiful,
  • change is possible and sometimes necessary and
  • slowing down a little after a busy summer is okay and often essential to regain balance and health.

This programme will gve you the opportunity for reflection and self-nourishment, to connect to what is truly important to you and let go of what might holding you back.

In a blink of an eye, the autumn will move on and remind us that the only constant is change so join us to make the most of this beautiful, precious season.

Although fully practical and lived on the mat through yoga and mindfulness techniques, theory will be weaved in alongside our practices so that you can begin to take what you learn off the mat and into everyday life – I have found this is where real change happens.

'A unique approach to yoga'

by Liz Hobman

“Louise has a very unique approach to teaching yoga, drawing learning from nature, neuroscience and nourishing spiritual teachings! I love the variety in her programmes, which combine mindfulness practices, movement and postures, readings and poetry, with wisdom and warmth. I am learning so much about how the mind, body and spirit can work together to cultivate compassion, strength and resilience for ourselves and those around us. I always feel calm and uplifted after a class. Informative, insightful and inspiring - thank you Lou!”

Themes for each week:

  • Week 1 - Beginnings

    September feels the New Year so the perfect time to begin our new programme and explore new beginnings in the midst of endings.

  • Week 2 - Grounding

    Autumn can leave us feeling scattered, restless and overwhelmed. This week we'll focus on grounding and the downward flow of energy to rebalance our mind and body.

  • Week 3 - Equinox

    The official welcoming of autumn and when the day and night are equal before we tip into the darker half of the year. Here we'll pause, reflect and consider how we can create more balance in our lives.

  • Week 4 - Nourish

    As the season changes we need to ensure we are taking take of ourselves. This week we'll Listen to the wisdom of the body and make any adjustments to ensure we stay well over the coming months.

  • Week 5 - Kindfulness

    No not a mispell! But an opportunity to be mindfulness of how scattered our emotions can be, and apply kindness and compassion to see us through the autumn and winter.

  • Week 6 - Surrender

    Autumn is now in full swing and this week we'll explore surrending to this release and let go, let be, let in.

  • Week 7 - Samhain

    Samhain is an ancient Celtic festival to mark the end of the harvest and the change in season. It's also a celebration of our ancestors aad where we'll complete our journey by bringing together the previous 7 weeks.

'Louise is so kind and caring'

by Emma Scinaldi

"I started as a complete beginner and was worried I would not be able to follow the moves, but Louise is so kind and caring, plus really knows her stuff so is able to give very clear, supportive guidance. There is never any pressure as Louise always offers alternatives. With care and kindness she has encouraged me to really develop my practice. I always feel really energised after a session with Louise but I am also starting to notice a higher level of peace and tranquility in my day to day life. I feel strong and calm at the same time!"

'Yoga gives us peace and clarity in order to see the beauty and wonder that is all around us'

Louise Neicho

Having spent the first 20 years of my professional life working in and with Nature I feel a deep connection to the natural world that has promoted numerous benefits in my life. Combining this with a love and appreciation of yoga and mindfulness that spans over two decades has enabled me to share practices that help us connect more deeply with Nature and ourselves. I have completed over 1000hrs of yoga and mindfulness teacher training and in 2023 I received a distinction for my master's degree in Mindfulness where my thesis focused on the wellbeing benefits of connecting with Nature. I can honestly say that yoga and Nature has saved my life on more than one occasion, and I don’t think I would be the person I am today if it wasn’t for my practice. To bring all of this together is simply a dream come true and I hope you will join me and our like-minded community soon.

'Louise’s passion for yoga is infectious'

by Sonia Battaini

“Lou's passion for yoga is infectious and her knowledge is incredibly vast. I have been doing yoga for a long time but I am always amazed at the fact that I am still learning something new with Louise’s very detailed explanations. The classes have helped me staying in the moment and achieving calmness within”

Your Questions Answered

  • How is this different to other yoga classes?

    This course is designed to take you gently and slowly into the deeper layers of the mind, each week building on your understanding of yoga and the tools and techniques that you can use on and off your mat. The difference to regular yoga classes is that we focus on one particular theme, as well as a physical focus in the body each week. You get to explore this theme for a whole week on and off the mat, building your awareness and focus.

  • Which class should I choose?

    There are 5 different styles to choose from each week and how you choose will depend on whether you have practiced yoga before or not and what you would like to gain from your practice. If you are new to yoga or haven’t practiced in a while, I would suggest starting with the Gentle & Restorative, Morning Meditation and Yin Yoga. If you are familiar with vinyasas then you’ll love the Flow & Reflect classes on Saturday mornings and if you’re looking for more stillness, deep physical stretches and meditation techniques then Yin Yoga will be for you.

  • What do I need to begin?

    You will need a yoga mat and comfortable clothing that you can easily move around in, PJ’s work well for this! For some of the classes you will need some props, but we have been experimenting with household pillows, cushions and blankets in place of traditional yoga props. I will let you know at the beginning of class what you need.

'Insightful, interesting, varied'

by Sarah Hall

"Louise's classes are always insightful, interesting and varied as she brings her knowledge and ongoing training and research into each one, combining useful 'off-the-mat' mindfulness tips with yoga poses appropriate to the unique theme for the week as well as catering for individual requirements where needed. They are packed with lots of good advice for day-to-day living as well as for practice on the yoga mat. Now that everything is online and recorded there is the added benefit of being able to participate in Louise's classes wherever you are in the world and the enormous library of recorded classes is a treasure trove of resource"

'Louise teaches from the heart'

by Amy Dodd

“Lou's classes have been a real anchor for me amongst all the uncertainty of the past year. I do like being able to log on to the website and do the recorded classes at any time. The classes cover a specific topic each term, and I’ve found that having a subject to focus on really enhances my yoga practice, off the mat as well as on it! Lou brings some wonderful insights into each class and you can tell she really teaches from the heart.”
