These sessions are led by Ayala Gill.

Start Time: Monday – Friday, 7 am GMT (London) / 8 am CET (Paris). 60-minute live session.

Reconnecting with an Open Heart

The Buddha described three poisons of a mind in separation: greed, hatred and delusion. A life – and a world – founded on these becomes entangled with accumulation, defence and control. To choose another way, we must first reconnect to what is true with an open heart. We will cultivate the inner supports which allow us to do this without falling into denial, escapism or further separation. When supported and open, the heart dreams the impossible, which we weave into our lives and walk into the world.

Ayala Gill

Ayala Gill has been committed to a path of insight and awakening since her early twenties. She has been practising Iyengar yoga since 1977, Insight Meditation and dharma since 1995, Insight Yoga (including yin yoga and psychospiritual enquiry) since 2001 and the animistic practices of the Andean-Inkan Holy Mountain tradition since 2017. She is humbled and fascinated by the potential of these practices to inform and enhance our relationship to body, heart, mind and spirit – and passionate in her commitment to translate this potential into everyday life.

Ayala has been teaching for 25 years, guides silent retreats in Europe which include yoga, meditation and ceremony, and is currently writing a book about integrating these practices into daily life. She has received authorisation to teach Insight Meditation from Martin Aylward, with whom she continues to study dharma. Ayala lives with her husband and their 3 children between London and Dorset, where they are using regenerative farming methods to enhance biodiversity. Click here to learn more about Ayala Gill.
