there you may seek communion.
There you may seek counsel ...”

Loving for a Living Institute
What
is 'loving for a living'? We have found that we don't always have the
words to answer that question, yet very often we have a felt sense of the
answer. You decide for yourself... Perhaps
it's that thing that you love getting paid to do but in an ideal world would
probably do simply because you love it. For us, it's the practice and teaching of Yoga and Bodywork.
By their nature, what we call the practice of 'integration' and of 'loving for a living' could be applied equally to any aspect of human endeavour. We could just as well hold space for courses in Loving Laundry & Living Washing Up, Holistic Basket Weaving, or Integrative Investment Banking.
We've chosen Integral Yoga and Integrative Bodywork because they are what we love doing. They
also naturally lend themselves to the discipline of practice, the
process of integration, and are such an obvious expression of loving
for a living.

By their nature, what we call the practice of 'integration' and of 'loving for a living' could be applied equally to any aspect of human endeavour. We could just as well hold space for courses in Loving Laundry & Living Washing Up, Holistic Basket Weaving, or Integrative Investment Banking.

We begin with a simple premise:
all that is truly required for what we call 'healing', or 'integration'
is the space to realise it...
in this moment...
in the flesh.
Our experience is that the practice is just the practice. Truly embodying our discoveries is the meditation. Our interest is in both the discipline of practice and the moment-to-moment meditation of 'life'. We've come up with some heartful, innovative, and fun ways to play with the practice.
The
design of our groups, workshops, and courses is intended to facilitate a safe, focused, and
playful space for exploration, discovery, and integration. The
Institute exists as the 'inquisitive collective' which co-creates and
holds this space. This collective consists of the evolving community
who collectively create our yoga and bodywork programmes by simply showing up to them as leaders, facilitators, and participants.
We define 'integration' very literally. For us, this means actually taking the by-products of discovery into integrity, into one's own body. These integrative practices are designed to support you and those you support in fully embodying mind, heart, energy, breath, and spirit.

So, we are starting with the radical concept of simply doing what we love
because we love it...
and in the process fostering our growth and the personal and professional growth
of others...
and having lots of fun...
beginning in our little corner of the world.
