What is a chakra?
You will often hear Yoga teachers
talking about Chakras in their classes.
A chakra is an energy centre within
your body. There are seven main
energy centres that on the physical body
relate to nerve plexuses (a
point at which lots of
nerves meet). Energy
at these centres
can get blocked.
Yoga postures can
help to get the
energy in these
centres to
flow freely,
increasing
energy and
vitality.

YOGA TIP
When frustrated whilst
driving and to calm road
rage, try taking a deep
breath in through your nose
and letting out a long
vowel sound, or OM.
Keep repeating until the
frustration or anger
disperses and you can
retain your calmness!

Stress Free Zone runs Yoga classes in Bedfordshire.
All classes are forms of Hatha Yoga, strongly influenced
by the alignment principles of Anusara Yoga.
We have plenty of spare mats, blocks and straps, so no
need to purchase any special equipment until you are
sure Yoga is for you. You will need to wear loose comfortable
clothing or gym wear. Yoga is practised in bare feet. If
you must wear socks please make sure that they have
grips on the bottom.
We want to give you flexibility and value for money so
you can “drop in” to all open classes or buy session cards.
Buying session cards not only reduces the cost
per class but helps you to commit to your yoga practice.
You can use your session cards in any Stress Free Zone
Yoga classes within the time frame indicated on your card.
You can buy 5 or 10 class cards. The more classes
you buy the cheaper the cost per session.
