Downward Facing Dog: strengthens nerves and muscles in the arms and legs. Tones spinal nerves. Stimulates circulation, especially in the upper spine. I didn’t notice the motorbike until I watched the video... stay focused on your practice 😉. Cameraman ‘on notice’ for continually cutting my head out of the shot 🙄😂. Have a great day 🧘♀️
Day 5 - extending our practice from mentally as well as physically ‘arriving’. Being present in our now, in our yoga. Stretching the tissues, releasing the tension, creating space in the joints and a sense of calm in the mind. Add this asana /movement on to your growing sequence... we’ll done! You’re developing your own yoga 🧘♀️
Another glorious day! Another simple practice to add on to the routine we are building. Be present. Focus on your breath. Start with 5 minutes a day ... you’ll feel SO good you’ll happily choose to include your own yoga practice in every day. Enjoy
Good morning everyone 🤗. Another glorious day! We all had our busy daily or life routines that left us little to no time for the things we imagined we’d do “if only we had more time”. Well here’s our opportunity to create new routines, to design healthier and happier lifestyles than perhaps we thought possible. I’m loving having the time to create these small recordings for you - they’re not professional or perfect - but I’m so pleased to be able to gift you some of the joy I’ve had in my life so far ... and hope it creates some in yours xx . Have a great day 🧘♀️
Day 2 of our practice building. Notice the word “practice” - meaning systematic training by multiple repetitions. We can all start right now, with exactly what we have available to us. It’s simply a choice, a decision you can make to put your own well-being, and therefore all those you interact with, a priority in your life. Maybe this world situation will be the catalyst for more to realise what’s truly important and where placing their energy will be most beneficial. Go well. 🧘♀️
Hey everybody 🤗. Well I do feel extremely happy to now be based in Raglan. Challenging times these! Placing yourself in a positive environment is ideal. If that’s not entirely possible for you right now, then a positive outlook will really help. Yoga - Your Own Great Awareness - is a great place to start, or maintain, a balanced perspective. I’m going to post short, under 5 minute, clips with some tips and practices that I know will help lift your spirit. (And yes I know I look a little fierce 😂... I’ll work on that!) 🧘♀️
Saturday 13th April 2019 sees the end of nearly 10 years of teaching Community Classes of Yoga and Yogalates in Auckland - for now! I am away for 3 months and on my return although I know there will be new offerings from me, they are still in the planning stages. Stayed tuned. Leave your details in an email if you are interested to know more. Namaste my fellow yogis. Go Well xx
With the Selling Out of the October Retreat I am creating a new opportunity to immerse yourself into a tranquil, spacious, supportive environment towards the end of Summer. A place where we can safely let go of life hindering beliefs and behaviours and step into who we really desire to be - taking back our power to create the life we really want to live. More info will be posted here soon….. Or if you want to be sure you don’t miss out this time, send me an email and I’ll send you a personal invitation in due course. x
An invitation to take time out of the busyness of your life to address the accumulated physical, mental and emotional tension. In this peaceful environment you can focus on clearing the mind and releasing physical tension through a fresh, healthy diet, stretching and toning the your body, massaging tired muscles and introducing the benefits of pure essential oils into your day.
Like the idea of the tropical retreat?!! - Keep this spot bookmarked as we have a new option coming for this October / November 2018
Hey wonderful Yogalates team - reminding you that these two weeks of school holidays our classes are not running - but remember to still take time for yourself, to connect back with your breath and your inner calm :) during school holidays you say! :)), stretch and release. I'll be back to join with you on our joint practice July 25th.... till then xx
Universal Energy for 2017: 2 + 0 + 1 + 7 = 10 = 1
A UNIVERSAL ‘1’ Year represents the start of a fresh new cycle – a new 9-year cycle of creativity, learning and growth.
A UNIVERSAL ‘1’ Year is a time to plant the seeds of intention for the forthcoming cycle – your deepest heartfelt desires, dreams and visions for every area of your life – relationships, health, finances, career, lifestyle, spirituality.
The intentions & foundations you set in place during 2017 (preferably early in the year), mould the field of possibility, set the tone and flow of energy within your life over the upcoming 9 years.
Take a moment to stop and consider, then put your plan into action. Now is a good time
xx
