Videos from our 10th Candlelit Meditation in aid of Fareshare Glasgow
Our annual Candlelit Meditation is always a very special part of our seasonal celebrations here at MCY. There's power and energy in sitting together and taking nourishment from deep rest. We wanted to share the magic of our 10th Candlelit Meditation with you at home.
Magic, Meditation & Candlelight - 'The Chai Sessions'
I'm so excited to be back on the sofa with Nicole and Ema to talk about our 10th annual Candlelit Meditation. I thought it would be lovely to have a little chat to let you know what we're going to be up to on Sunday 11th December. Pop the kettle on, get yourself comfy and come and join us!
The gift that keeps on giving - Yogability, 'The Chai Sessions'
Debbie is the founder of Yogability, a very wonderful charity working here in Glasgow. Yogability provide free yoga to children and adults with special needs, their families and carers in our community. At MCY we support Yogability with fundraising every year in the form of our 108 Sun Salutations challenge.
This is an emotional, heartfelt chat you won’t want to miss.
What makes a yoga practice yoga? - James Boag, 'The Chai Sessions'
During each online chai session we’ve shared up till now, I’ve always imagined that we were sitting face to face on the sofa in the studio. I was so excited to finally have the opportunity to do just that with James Boag recently and can now share our first ever in-person chai session here with you!

Homecoming - massage therapy & moving into the body - Jules Harrington, 'The Chai Sessions'
Jules has been travelling to MCY from Edinburgh to share her magical massage skills since 2016.
To start I ask Jules how she describes what she does. It's not just physical body work, what Jules offers is something quite special.

Now Yoga Begins - James Boag, 'The Chai Sessions'
Over the years James has been a regular visitor to MCY. I was so desperate for people to hear what he had to share and for them to see the gift in texts like the Bhagavad Gita and Yoga Sutras. He's helping us all see the wisdom in these teachings and how we can work with them, not only in our yoga practice on the mat but off the mat too as we go about our daily lives.

Why Pranayama? - Siobhan Fitzgerald, 'The Chai Sessions'
In our chat Siobhan and I discuss why you would consider doing a more formal breathing or pranayama practice. We breathe anyway, why do we need to give it extra attention?
We also ask the question, "Is thinking about pranayama as just a breathing practice actually too small?" Pranayama is a whole lot more than just breathing.
