FREE SOULFUL & FUN YOGA SEQUENCE
A short but powerful and positive Yoga sequence for you to Thrive in Light. This will put a smile on your face.
WHAT is
YOGA?
Yoga is an ancient art & science with the ultimate aim of providing a path to inner stillness and union.
Yoga reminds us to live in the present moment while experiencing ease in our bodies, mind and spirit.
Our breath feeds into every part of our Yoga practice. It is the lifeforce which brings us home to the present moment.
Yoga is not mechanical physical movements but moving from within; moving with awareness.
Yoga is an ongoing practice which aligns & benefits all aspects of our being; emotional, physical, mental & spiritual.
WHAT KIND
of YOGA?
Thrive in Light’s Yoga is holistic, soulful & uplifting.
There are many interpretations of Yoga. From devotional and service orientated to hot and physical. So where does Thrive in Light fit in the mix?
Our Yoga is essentially Hatha Yoga. ‘Ha’ is sun, ‘tha’ is moon – thus, Hatha is the Yoga of balance. It includes asanas (yoga postures) and pranayama (breathing exercises), along with deeper spiritual practices such as meditation.
This practice is based on Patanjali’s 8 Limbs of Yoga. These teachings come from the ancient Yoga Sutras.
Thrive in Light is Kate’s medium for taking Yoga out into the community. The aspects of Yoga that Kate particularly resonate with are:
– Meaningful human connections
– Embracing the divine feminine
– Connecting with nature
– Playfulness and humour
– Inspirational music
– Coming home to our soul
– Our breath
1 on 1 SESSIONS
A personalised journey into your wellbeing awaits. Private Yoga sessions tailored to your needs.
A bespoke and personalised journey into your wellbeing. A private 1:1 Yoga session is tailored to your needs, whether they be physical, mental, emotional or spiritual. For some people a 1:1 session allows them to feel safe, present and nurtured without the distraction of other people. For other’s it’s about tailoring movement to particular physical challenges. Other people resonate with spiritual nourishment where breath, meditation and soul guidance are the motivation.
To begin we explore your dosha type (an Ayurvedic system of health), intentions (e.g. is it mainly physical or emotional?), and health position and then create an experience that best serves you.
All sessions will incorporate pranayama (breath awareness), sankalpa (intention setting) and relaxation/meditation.
1:1 session’s can be held in my country home or I can travel to your chosen space.
The 1:1 Yoga session investment is $130 which includes the questionnaire process, planning an individualised programme and a one-hour personal session to guide you. Travel rate is 80 cents per kilometre to come to your home or chosen space.
Contact Kate to book your personalised 1:1 session at kate@thriveinlight.co.nz or 021 033 7626.

Deepen your Yoga Journey with a Home Practice
Deepen the benefits of Yoga by creating a daily home practice. There is a saying that I live by, “Discipline is Freedom” meaning that when we commit to a cause that is for our highest good we experience freedom. In other words, while it takes discipline to practice yoga daily, the reward of living with heart and soul gives us freedom and peace.
To support you on your path to establishing a daily home practice, I have soulfully created the ‘I Am Thriving’ Yoga and Affirmation guide. This is your companion in creating an everyday yoga and affirmations practice to inspire a life of wellbeing and fulfillment.
