Lisa will be joining us for one beathwork and yoga class this month and we have decided to make it a special one by hosting it in the People’s Park! 

Lisa is a breathwork and meditation coach who provides somatic coaching and yoga to aid anxiety, depression, addiction and trauma. This breathwork and yoga class helps users to focus their thoughts on the present moment through grounded movement, mindful observation and meditation and breathing practices.

Be sure to mark your calendars for this class! We are expecting fine weather for the day so this is sure to be a wonderful moment for self-care and de-stress in the sun.

Monthly Women’s Group (14th May)

Our Monthly Women’s Group continues on the second Tuesday of each month at 11am.

LMHA’s Women’s Group aims to create a safe and inclusive environment that encourages open conversation and compassion for yourself and others.

Women of all ages are welcome as we find that this provides a range of perspectives and makes the discussion very diverse. We’re really looking forward to the next meeting, which will focus on the theme of self-love.
