SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER
6 x Saturday mornings / 6 x Monday evenings
starts 9th September
Open to anyone who enjoys Kum Nye. The ‘Saturday sessions’ refresh and inspire our Kum Nye practice – a familiar mix of establishing a context, movement & stillness.
To help make a habit of this new way-of-being we add an optional ‘mostly-meditation’ on Mondays; less talk & more stillness (but enough movement to keep it interesting!)
RELAXING everything is optional – attend as you like.
EASY one registration for any/all sessions.
ACCESSIBLE follow ‘live’ or via the recording (everyone registered receives a link to each session’s recording, so you can view/re-view in your own time).
FREE there’s no fee – you are invited to make a donation.
How will I participate? 🧐 – FAQ
This is a new format, so it will evolve, but the premise is; the sessions work together and can be followed sequentially. So one option is to sign up and follow everything! Everyone registered receives the recording which is available when you are – so ‘catch up’ is always possible.
Many people find attending ‘live’ makes a big difference – if that’s your experience maybe follow the one(s) you can do in real time.
Newer people may like to prioritise the Saturday mornings when there is more guidance.
More seasoned practitioners may focus on the Monday evenings when we repeat the exercises from Saturday, going a little deeper, with less talk and more meditation.
The idea is that we become more familiar with the practice so we feel the benefit in our everyday life – What does that look like for you?
How about this:
1. Register
2. See how you feel and attend accordingly – no pressure.
3. 😊
New to Kum Nye & online sessions with Matt? – here’s some info that may be helpful.
Set Up Kum Nye is a slow and meditative form of yoga, it is good to wear clothing that allows free movement, minimal jewellery etc. Barefoot is good but warm socks are cosy, yoga mats are not necessary.
If you are new to meditation you may find the following video On Posture [17minutes] helpful. It describes the options for seating, the main points of the posture and some other tips.
Only sit on a cushion/the floor if you are comfortable doing so. Otherwise use a comfortable, firm chair (without arms is best). We sit upright but forward on the chair a little; it’s good if your feet reach the ground – if the chair is too high put cushions or blankets under your feet.
Ideally you will follow the sessions from a quiet space with no interruptions, and a good internet connection – and make sure you can see your screen!
Connecting using Zoom The live sessions are streamed using Zoom. By now many of us are familiar with Zoom but if it is your first time you will need to download the Zoom meeting app (it only takes a few minutes but do it days in advance again so there’s no stress). You do not have to have or create a Zoom account to join this streaming.
I look forward to seeing you on-line!
