As we open the new year, this meditation invites us to cast our anchor in our Belly Centre (Hara). Across both Eastern and Western wisdom traditions this domain is recognised as our main spring of embodied wisdom. Without a clear connection to this home-ground, our Heart-Mind can feel fragile, scattered, and ill equipped to steward the world it inhabits. From this inner ground of body intelligence, we explore our deeper aspirations and cultivate intentionality as we move forward – allowing a a tender, undefended heart to open naturally to the world.

(This is a live recording from Kia's In Depth Training in Paris).

With Love and Blessings for this New Year,

/Kia & Yotam

The Breath Space began as a live recording during Kia’s in-depth training in Paris and has since evolved into a full album with the same name, now available on all platforms. This original recording opens with Kia guiding a brief breath-awareness practice, helping us notice the subtle currents that shape our body with each in- and out-breath. From there, we gather in Samastitihi, aligning body, breath, and mind, before moving through 80 minutes of Yotam's immersive soundscapes designed to carry us through our Asana practice. Throughout, gentle reminders invite us to return to the openness and presence of our inner breath. Kia also shares one of her favourite quotes by Ani Pema Chödrön.

Thank you for your practice 

With Love and Blessings

Loss—whether fresh or long woven into your life, whether it’s a person, a relationship, or something less tangible—lives within us all. It shapes our days in quiet ways. This meditation is an invitation to meet grief gently, and only as you feel ready. As we hold space for our personal sorrow, it can become a doorway into a collective journey of healing and compassion that holds all beings. (Meditation begins at 04:15)

With love & blessings

Recited daily in Mahayana temples throughout the world, The Prajna Paramita Heart Sutra or The Sutra of the Heart of Transcendent Knowledge is one of the most well known Buddhist teachings and is said to be the view that leads to complete liberation.
In this episode, Kia shares her personal experience and reflections around this sacred text, as well as the creation of hers and Yotam's latest album The Other Shore – Sounds of the Heart Sutra. This is followed by a recitation of Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh’s exquisite translation of the text.

You find the complete album The Other Shore – Sounds of the Heart Sutra on all platforms where you listen to music.

This meditation explores bringing our Swara - the flow through our right solar and left lunar streams of consciousness - into balance. 
In yoga this is traditionally done through harmonising the flow through our left and right nostril where these subtle breath channels, nadis terminate. There are many practices devoted to this end in classical Hatha Yoga texts. This episode offers a beautifully crafted live recording from Kia's In-depth Development Training  that we invite you to explore with us.
It is said that when our stimulating and generative solar swara comes into a supportive balance with our spacious and receptive lunar swara, inner divisiveness and conflict is able to heal. Entering this sanctuary within, duality and separation begins to soften, even dissolve, and we are left with a deep sense of wholeness and interconnectedness.
This recording is best experienced with headphones to allow for a multi-dimensional listening. 

With Love and Blessings

An embodied approach to yoga requires us to learn our body's subtle language so we can attune what and how to practice to care for its changing nature.  Opening and closing with a  Body Scan is a powerful way to strengthen our capacity to use own inner reference system for growing somatic intelligence. Without initiating our practice from this place of deep listening, our practice is likely to be rout, habitual or goal-driven. Opening with a compassionate inquiry into our own embodiment opens up our yoga practice to endless creative opportunities and new pathways for healing.
This is a live recording from Kia's In-Depth Training at Mysore Yoga Paris.
It is best experienced with headphones to allow for a multi-dimensional listening. 
Thank you for your practice

Resonance frequency breathing  is a very simple, yet powerful practice for restoring balance in our body, breath, heart and mind. The word resonance is defined as synchronicity or harmony between elements. It’s a way of breathing where we consciously slow down our breath cycle in a way that brings our autonomic nervous system into balance. In only a few quiet minutes, this practice allows us to drop into a natural sense of equilibrium and harmony. In resonance with our true selves…

Kia opens our meditation by sharing a quote from electronic music composer Pauline Olivero's work Quantum Listening. It's an invitation to listen with care and attention. Listening deeply in this way sheds light on the invisible forces that transpires around, within and between us - our inner and outer resonance. Following these subtle vibratory threads, we experience our existence as woven together in a boundless tapestry of sound and breath.

This beautiful sound meditation with crystal bowls by Cristina Monti, is a live recording from this Summers' Retreat in our Mountain Shala. 

The recording is best experienced with headphones to allow for a multi-dimensional listening.

We invite you for a Savasana-Journey: A divine relaxation that takes us to Mother India, the homeland of yogic practices & ancient wisdom teachings.
We travel deep into a protected rain forest in Karnataka. In the lush soundscape of the jungle, we find a clearing where we lie down.
In this sanctuary, we allow our body to find complete rest and our mind complete presence.
Savasana is usually taken at the end of practice, but we truly recommend taking Savasana any time during the day when you need a pause to relax and renew your body and mind. Or, you could simply allow this journey to gently drop you into a restful sleep.

This sound recording is best experienced with headphones to allow for a multi-dimensional listening.

Shamatha means Calm Abiding or Peacefully Remaining and is the foundation of Buddhist Mindfulness Practice. Taking our seat and placing our attention on an anchor such as the breath,  offers us a home ground, a safe but transient sensation that allows us to return to our embodiment in the present moment. When we pause from the momentum of life in this way, we begin to breed an inner sanctuary, a calm resting place from where we can experience life more fully. This ability to abide in reality is what is known as The Lion’s Roar of Confidence.

Thank you for your practice.
With love and blessings
