Mindful Being is a yoga and wellbeing studio founded by Louise Harris in Holmfirth, West Yorkshire. It exists for one reason: to help people live calmer, truer, more embodied lives. The studio bridges science and ancient wisdom through an integrated approach to wellness — breath, movement, stillness, and honest conversation, woven together in every class.
This is not a fitness class with a spiritual garnish. Sessions draw on yoga, shamanic practice, and feminine healing traditions, and they are shaped for real nervous systems living real lives — parents, carers, professionals, people carrying grief or change. Everything is guided, everything is invitational, and nothing is performed.
Louise also wrote Chapter 25 of the book "The Women Who Gathered" — a collection of women's stories honouring feminine wisdom and the body. That same honesty runs through the studio: teaching that names what is true rather than dressing it up.
Classes run in person around Holmfirth and the surrounding West Yorkshire towns. Students travel from Leeds, Huddersfield, Sheffield, Wakefield, Bradford, Halifax and Barnsley for sessions here. The door is open to complete beginners and to experienced practitioners alike.
