“The truest home is not a place but a state of being.”

This is our regular schedule that runs the same every week. You are most welcome to just drop in, need to sign up in advance. All our classes are thought in English and we have mats for your use. Please get in touch if you have questions and we hope to see you on the mat. Warm welcome! 🙏✨💜✨

There is a crack, a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in

The birds they sang
At the break of day
Start again
I heard them say
Don’t dwell on what has passed away
Or what is yet to be

We are very happy to be introducing a new free of charge, weekly event at Inlight. Every Tuesday at 7.30pm our lovely Karuna will be guiding this session which consists of 45 minutes seated meditation practice with introductory techniques to support a deeper meditative state. The meditation will be followed by 15 minutes of optional sharing.
No previous experience needed, everyone is welcome!

This is a drop in event, pre bookings are not needed and it is free of charge.

First session will be held Tuesday 7/7 2026. We hope to see you there!

Are you familiar with the yogic method of Trataka? ✨🧘‍♀️ 🕯️ ✨

It is a yogic meditation and concentration practice that involves fixing your gaze steadily on a single point — most commonly a candle flame — without blinking for as long as comfortable.

The word comes from Sanskrit and roughly means “to gaze steadily.”

How it’s practiced

A traditional candle trataka session usually looks like this:

1. Sit comfortably with your spine upright.
2. Place a candle at eye level about an arm’s length away.
3. Relax your breathing.
4. Gaze at the flame without moving your eyes.
5. Try not to blink until your eyes water or feel tired.
6. Close your eyes and visualize the flame internally between the eyebrows.
7. Repeat for several rounds.

What it’s used for

Practitioners use trataka for:

* Improving concentration and mental focus
* Meditation training
* Calming mental chatter
* Developing visual awareness
* Preparing for deeper yoga or meditation practices

In some yogic traditions, it’s also considered a cleansing practice (“shatkarma”) for the eyes and mind.

If you do not already practice trataka we invite you to try and let us know how you get on 🙏✨🙏✨🙏
