Candlelit Yin, pranayama and journalling

An evening of Yin Yoga, pranayama (yogic breathwork), meditation and journalling by candlelight to unwind, restore and reconnect

Join yoga and meditation teacher Danielle Dominguez for a gentle, 90-minute practice in the beautiful surrounds of Inspired by the Moon, nestled in the Dandenong Ranges village of Olinda.

Surrounded by the soft glow of candlelight, we'll move through a thoughtfully curated sequence of Yin Yoga, pranayama (yogic breathwork), meditation and guided journalling to help quieten the mind, release tension and create space for stillness and reflection.

Through longer-held, supported Yin poses, we'll invite the body to soften and settle. Gentle breathwork and meditation will encourage a sense of calm, while journalling offers an opportunity to explore your thoughts, reconnect with yourself and perhaps find a little clarity along the way.

There's nothing to achieve and no experience necessary. Simply come as you are, with a willingness to slow down and enjoy a little time out from the demands of everyday life.

This workshop is open to all, including those new to yoga or journalling. All practices are invitations, and you're welcome to adapt them to suit your needs.

What to bring

Please wear warm, comfortable clothing and bring a:

• yoga mat

• journal and pen

• cushion or bolster if you’d like extra support for Yin poses.

Please arrive 10 minutes earlier to settle into the space.
