As we progress through the 2018, breathe slowly.
Gosh! we are nearly at the end of February, 2018 is proving to be moving at a rapid pace, with the humidity and rain curling even the straightest hair.
We are challenged daily with external factors, whether it be uncomfortable heat or steamity as I like to call it, or maybe the constant fear tactics from the media and the government.
Its hard not to be effected and a little exhausted by it.
The message I would like to put out there is just do your best and expect that standard to change daily.
We are different everyday and a little time each morning to check in with you will help you understand yourself.
Stop!! breathe slowly and from your belly.
Close your eyes and breathe in happiness to your heart then breathe out tension and negativity.
Exercise daily alternate yoga and some other form of activity.
Eat healthy food made with your hands.
Sleep for at least 7 hours.
Try to cut out using plastic and feel like you are helping our creatures of the world, this will bring goodness back to you.
We will chat again in March stay on track and love the you that YOU are.
Lay your mat here and lets do some yoga
Take control of your life now and give to yourself the gift of peace.
My world through the eyes of a yogi and surfer
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 !
Recognise stress and let it go!
A dash of winter sun and a pinch of happiness!
Mantra for the week!
″JUMP OUT OF THE CHAIR AND ON TO YOUR FEET
