The classes offer an opportunity to pause\, reset and develop simple practices that can support wellbeing beyond the yoga mat. \n\n\n\nThis 5 week course will be ran by instructor\, Stacey Taylor\, a 200-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT). She is fully insured and registered with Yoga Alliance Professionals UK.

SUMMARY:Filey Poetry Appreciation Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:Taking place on the First Friday of the month from 1-2.30pm at Filey Library\, our Poetry Appreciation Group is a fun\, informal group where we get together\, discover and share the pleasure of looking at classic and modern poetry. We are a reading group and we read poetry borrowed from the libraries or our staff and volunteer’s collections and discuss them. No pressure to read out loud! We’ll look at the poem and decide if we like the poem\, if we understand the poem\, if it even is a poem. No prior experience or love of poetry is required!! \n\n\n\nPoetry allows individuals to explore thoughts and feelings that may be difficult to articulate in conversation. Writing or reading poetry can help people explore emotions such as grief\, anxiety\, depression\, or anger. \n\n\n\nOur poetry groups are for anyone who wants to enjoy the written word and meet up with friendly and welcoming individuals. If you’d like to attend but have any anxieties about walking into the room or getting introduced\, just let us know in advance and we can arrange a volunteer to meet you outside and a member to make all introductions to the group! No charge but donations always welcome towards the ongoing running of the group at https://www.justgiving.com/swrmind
