Mindful Being exists for one reason: to help people live calmer, truer, more embodied lives. Founded by Louise Harris in Holmfirth, the studio draws on yoga, shamanic practice and feminine healing traditions — shaped for real nervous systems living real lives.
This is not a fitness class with a spiritual garnish. Louise also wrote Chapter 25 of the book "The Women Who Gathered", honouring feminine wisdom and the body in which we walk this life. That same raw honesty runs through every session: teaching that names what is true rather than dressing it up.
Students travel from across West Yorkshire and South Yorkshire. The door is open to complete beginners and to experienced practitioners alike — including energy practitioners, coaches and healers who want a community that speaks their language.
What is the True Essence Journey?
The True Essence Journey is a four-stage healing experience: 1. Embrace Your True Essence, 2. Embody Your True Essence, 3. Embody Higher Frequencies, and 4. Abide Your True Essence — a monthly subscription community. The first three stages are guided sessions taken in order; completing them opens the invitation to the ongoing monthly circle.
I'm a complete beginner — is this for me?
Yes. Group classes offer variations for every posture, one-to-one sessions move entirely at your pace, and Stage One of the Journey assumes no prior experience. Most people arrive nervous and leave wondering why they waited so long.
What should I bring?
Just yourself and comfortable clothes. Mats, blocks, straps and blankets are provided, water is available, and arriving ten minutes early gives you time to settle in.
How does the monthly subscription work?
The monthly subscription is Stage Four — Abide Your True Essence — for people who have completed stages one to three. One live practice circle a month, a private community space, seasonal gatherings, workshop discounts and priority retreat booking. £XX/month (Sample). Pause or cancel any month.
