44: The Art of Holding Space with Integrity with Helen at The Fold
In this episode of Unravelling, I am excited to share a sacred conversation I had with Helen at The Fold.
Helen is a yoga teacher in Manchester, teaching at her new studio The Fold. She specialises in yoga for women who are trying to conceive, with an emphasis on creating a restorative space for compassionate connection to self and others. Helen is also a lecturer in education and writes about forests and the beyond human.
In this episode we unravel…
Helen’s journey and what’s brought her to where she is now
The journey of understanding what it really means to hold space for someone in the capacity of being a yoga teacher
Creating safe and nurturing spaces for people to come and receive what they need in the moment
Our spiritual toolkits are always available to us, but sometimes we have to give ourselves permission to access them
Breadcrumb trails of curiosity that lead us to beautiful places and experiences
And much, much more!
Memorable Quotes…
“I’m creating a safe and nurturing space for someone to come and receive what they need in that moment. It’s now my main intention when sharing yoga nidra and meditation.”
“There’s this misconception that we come to these tools to learn something new, but I deeply believe that it’s all this remembering and peeling back layer after layer of who we are at the very core.”
“Belonging is a huge thing for me. Finding that belonging can be so challenging. So I want to offer space for those who have been through the Himalayas and back down again to have their baby.”
