Meditation classes

November 10, 2012 by Kelly Thompson

Meditation classes

I’ve mentioned before that I don’t have the easiest time meditating. It’s often a struggle for me as calming my mind might be my greatest life challenge. I’ve always been a pretty wired and stressed individual, which is why I’ve been practicing yoga since I was thirteen years old. I very much need the calming […]

21 day Meditation Challenge

November 8, 2012 by Anne-Marie

21 day Meditation Challenge Meditation is not a way of making your mind quiet.
It is a way of entering into the quiet that is already there -
buried under the 50,000 thoughts
the average person thinks every day.  Deepak Chopra All my life I’ve been striving for a bit more balance, to become a bit of a […]

Maha Devi Design, Sustainable Yoga Clothes

Maha Devi Design, Sustainable Yoga Clothes

I’m always cruising the Internet for new and exciting things related to my yoga practice. And yes, I’ve certainly written about clothing in the past because, contrary to my last post on Nude Yoga, I really love yoga clothing. As I’ve mentioned, I work from home, so being comfortable is vital to me as I […]

Stuck in Downward Dog

October 29, 2012 by Anne-Marie

Stuck in Downward Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana) I have always loved sun salutations.  I find serenity in the continuous motion between the movements.  Each piece seems to naturally blend together.  Before there were “flow” classes, there were the sun salutations.   However, I have a confession to make.   I’ve always struggled with downward dog. As a […]

Could you do yoga in the NUDE?

October 25, 2012 by Kelly Thompson

So recently, while walking my dog, I was behind a couple discussing how liberating they found their nude yoga classes, that they felt it opened them up to new experiences. Okay, now this was one I had to Google. So between nude yoga and laughing yoga, it has indeed been an eye-opening month for me. […]

Another disease, another day

October 22, 2012 by Kelly Thompson

This has been a challenging week for me. I went to my doctor with several concerns; my brain confusion is reaching new heights, I haven’t slept more than four hours a night in about three months, and I’m finding widespread pain throughout my entire body, in particular, in my joints. My doctor confirmed my suspicions […]

When levity is required, try laughing yoga

October 10, 2012 by Kelly Thompson

Someone mentioned laughing yoga to me the other day I thought, how have I never heard of this phenomenon?! They mash my two favourite things to do and I’m a firm believer that laughter, like yoga, is a healer for the soul. As it turns out, laughter yoga uses gentle stretches, exercises and breathing to […]

How to do the Yoga Poses that Frustrate You

October 7, 2012 by Charlotte Bradley

Is there a pose that when the teacher announces it, you groan inwardly? There are definitely some poses I would rather not do. Camel is one and I’ve written about that before. But there is a whole set of poses that I really struggle with – anything that is heavily core focused. Boat pose?! Argh! […]

Dharana: Focusing with Intent

Dharana: Focusing with Intent

Last week, was the perfect week for me to dive right into pratyahara. Although I have to admit on Monday it felt like a near impossibility.  It was chaotic, stressful, and taking those few moments where I tried to separate myself from my senses felt really empowering. Here is what really amazed me, I normally […]

Yoga feels good. Don’t believe me, try it out for yourself.

September 18, 2012 by Charlotte Bradley

Yoga feels good. Don’t believe me, try it out for yourself.

I really think that yoga can help you. It can help with the pain in your hip and the tightness in your shoulders. It can also help calm your mind so that you can sleep better at night. I love yoga. But I don’t think you should take my word for it. You need to […]
