Hatha Yoga with Aromatherapy

Olivia McIntyre offers Hatha Yoga with Aromatherapy every Thursday evening, 7.30-8.30pm

I've been coming to Olivia's classes for a couple of years and currently attend her Thursday night Hatha Yoga with aromatherapy class. An hour of pure bliss!  The gentle, deep stretches and the restorative sequences at the end of the class along with the carefully chosen aromatherapy scents ensure the best sleep afterwards. Olivia has a very calm, caring person-centred approach combined with very clear guidance through each pose.  I always leave class feeling relaxed, centred and balanced.

From Olivia herself:

"I love pairing Hatha Yoga with aromatherapy because I believe it adds a little ritual to the practice.

My interest in aromatherapy began in my teens, when I first experienced the calming benefits of lavender oil during periods of anxiety. Over the years, I have collected different essential oils from my travels and have loved learning more about their individual properties, benefits and how they can be blended together.

Introducing a few drops of carefully chosen essential oils at considered moments throughout the class can deepen the sensory experience of our practice, inviting us to slow down, breathe mindfully and feel more present.

I offer a maximum of three oil blends per class, many of which I blend myself. I change these weekly to complement the theme and intention of each practice.

My Hatha teaching style is slow and mindful, giving us time to pause, settle into each posture and really experience how it feels in our bodies, with aromatherapy adding another layer to this experience.

As this is an evening class, we always finish with a calming blend to accompany a deeply restorative savasana. My hope is that students will leave the class feeling calm, rested and ready for a peaceful night's sleep."
