A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

Deep relaxation with yoga nidra
Are you worried, stressed, tired? Do you need to learn how to relax?
Rest and relaxation are vital for our wellbeing. They help us to cope with stress and recover after difficulties. Dr Roosa Leimu-Brown, a qualified yoga therapist, will show you how to carry out profound and progressive relaxation with yoga nidra, a practice of deep meditative rest. Yoga nidra can help to release negative emotions and thought patterns, calm your mind, and help you to develop the capacity to cope with difficulties. It can help you deal with stress, insomnia, anxiety, depression and chronic pain among other things. No yoga experience required. Take a break from work and come along as you are; no special clothing necessary. Free of charge.
