Autumn but almost Winter!

Posted by & filed under Blog.

While travelling in my car, I heard a funny comment on the radio….. this is how it went. In winter bears hibernate, eating and sleeping with no activity. This is so they can put a layer of fat on to keep warm and sleep for the entire Winter.

Then the radio announcer went on to say but humans are not suppose to hibernate during Winter, eating ,lying on the couch, watching reruns of movies in our Pyjamas.

To me this does sound cosy especially when we have had our first snap of chilly weather, but honestly the best sunrises and sunsets are now so make sure your not couch bound and get out there and live.

Your body will thank you for moving and stay in shape to face the unveiling when Summer comes around.

So don’t be a bear and start resembling the shape of a pear!

Keep on moving and a grooving so your mind stays happy and your tum stays trim.

The hardest part is the start of anything so focus on starting a routine and stick to it.

Make the time to find peace!

In the silence of the morning, just before the sun rises is a time when your thoughts have not yet started to zoom around your brain.

This is the perfect time for meditation and light yoga, so you can start each day fresh with a clear mind and a limber body.

I like to finish each day with the sunset to remind myself to bring closure to events, thoughts and decisions of the day.

I am lucky to see the sunset while my evening yoga class is on and I feel this creates a significant impact on the body and mind connection.

The sunset re enforces the need to let go of the stuff each day brings even though some altercations or actions though the day have made us uncomfortable or angry or fearful.

As humans we are organic and our bodies will absorb peoples words and actions everyday. If you let this build up within you, it creates a stressful environment mentally and physically. We must learn to let go of all events daily, this is why it feels so good to  unwind the body through yoga so the mind follows and both become relaxed and calm.

We are reminded that our wellbeing is of upmost importance and nothing is more vital than health and happiness.

Love yourself and set yourself free through yoga.

Namaste !
