Happy !

What are you feeling grateful for today? πŸ™

We recently took a mini break to The Barn at Erinsvale and it was wonderful! Thank you to our fabulous hosts Andrea and Kieran for welcoming us to your beautiful neck of the woods. Similar to when I offer our day retreats, they added so many little but big thoughtful touches for our stay that we really appreciated, and I wanted to give them a shout out https://www.bannockbrae.com.au/stay/

Day trips to Toowomba markets, Crows Nest and Ravensbourne National parks were something I’ve been wanting to do for ages! Waking up to Koalas, birds and kangaroos, watching the sunsets and stars, wide open spaces, so much to be grateful for …

Hi Yogis!

When I tuned in to what intention I might offer for this weeks yoga, 1 word clearly came up: recalibration.

Day to day life, world events, relationships, and responsibilities can sometimes pull us away from our centre. When the world around us is chaotic, we can become scattered and therefore less able to meet what comes towards us. The antidote? Re-centering, re-grounding, recalibrating, re-aligning.

All yogic practices offer this opportunity!

Coming to yoga helps you to:
πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ reconnect with yourself in the present moment,
πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ check in with how scattered or aligned you are,
πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈ set the intention to recalibrate, reground, realign, and then
πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ take steps to cultivate that thorough movement, mindfulness, and breath.

You leave able to meet life with all of you, and can carry that alignment forward for the coming hours and days.

I look forward to recalibrating with you this week, enjoying the gifts of yoga which linger long after our final namaste! 🀩

Every time we come to the end of our weekly meditation circle, it's abundantly clear that everyone in the room has experienced something beneficial. Each of us have our own individual experience of the meditation, and its effects, which are overwhelmingly positive ☺️

Huge thanks to those meditators who take the time to share their experiences with me! It's my joy and passion to share yoga and meditation with you. Although I don't need validation, it's always a buzz to hear how you benefit from coming to practice and how meditation serves you πŸ™

I know the truth of this quote because after years of practice I have received many, many gifts from meditation, top of the list is being here doing what I do! Join me in meditation this week to receive whatever it is YOU need to from coming. I am so looking forward to meditating with you!πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ˜ŠπŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ

In a time when so many people are broadcasting into your day, I felt it important to clear something up, because your attention is so valuable!

My intention on this page is to inspire and uplift in a real way, leaning into my own knowing. What I share here is heartfelt truth, from me to you, without the use of human/artificial writing aids. I will not outsource this role to anyone or anything else.

I intend to teach in a way that empowers you ~ I teach resilience not reliance ~ You have wisdom within you and my role is helping to connect you with this inner wisdom, rather than painting myself to be a source of all knowledge. I am not.

I HAVE walked a varied path, gained experience, grown and healed in ways that are meaningful to me and maybe you also. But only you know what you need. So from what I share, please take what resonates, and use your discernment to go looking deeper within yourself when you need answers. I can help you connect with your own wisdom, but I can’t tell you what it has to say to you, only you can do that.

If there's something you want to see more of, or less of, on this page. Please do let me know 😊 thank you for your attention, it is appreciated! Renee πŸ™πŸ’œ

Hi Yogis!

In this week of the full moon, I want to share a gentle yoga practice centered around nervous system regulation. It's common to feel frazzled by the energetics of this phase of the lunar cycle. Knowing this is powerful because you can intentionally use practices to counter those hectic energies and bring yourself back to balance πŸŒ• ☯

Thankfully there are several ways to move from stressed to calm that you can learn on the mat and practice off the mat. Pranayama (breathwork) is one super helpful practice you can do anywhere, anytime and no one needs to know you're doing it! You can practice pranayama on the bus, in a meeting, at the supermarket, etc. Consciously connecting with your breath and working with it to bring about a desired state.

Join me this week in breathing our way back to calm and relaxation. I look forward to seeing you soon! πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ€©πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ

For a while now I've been feeling like EVERYTHING is speeding up, almost like being in a washing machine on spin cycle! In my conversations with yogis, many are facing challenges and turbulence at this time. Are you noticing life feels more chaotic compared with even a few months ago?

If you're also feeling it know that you don't have to 'put up with' it!

As we've been discussing in yoga this week, our practice is an opportunity to reconnect with that place within ourselves where there is stillness, clarity and wisdom. Where the true answers to our challenges lie, waiting for us to get quiet enough to hear them. The more we do this the more we are able to ride the waves of challenge rather than being dumped by them! πŸŒŠπŸ„β€β™‚οΈ

After many years of practice, I know now that if I'm presented with a challenge for which I don't immediately know the answer ... I simply need to stop doing, sit in silence, and the answer will appear, often with such surprising speed it's a challenge to remain meditating because I just want to get up and take action! Trust me, staying the course is well worth it, the longer you sit the more wisdom arises.

Join me in meditation this week to open the door a little wider to welcome your wise self and your own answers to life's conundrums. I am so looking forward to meditating with you!πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ˜ŠπŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ

Hi Yogis!

Last week we were looking into our yoga journey and what it has gifted us. I trust this self enquiry was helpful! 😊

I was drawn to yoga for years but convinced myself I didn't have the time or the money for it, so my practice started sporadically at home with a DVD. When I formally joined a yoga studio 13 years ago, it was all about balance ☯

My days were generally spent sitting at a computer or in meetings with a very active mind and gave a lot! Yoga was a precious part of my week where I received, enjoyed moving my body, and the mind would naturally fall quiet. By the time we entered savasana, I had reconnected with the sanctuary of calm that resides within and always left feeling amazing, ready to meet whatever challenges lay ahead. Even if it seemed I didn't have time to go to yoga, I knew it would give back more in clarity and productivity than the time spent in class, so going was non-negotiable!

In a world that is becoming increasingly chaotic, know that this sanctuary of calm resides within you also. Yoga is a way to reconnect with it. Each time you come to your mat the flame gets a little brighter, a little stronger πŸ•―πŸ”₯

Join me this week in enjoying a sacred pause, finding balance and stillness, and taking that with you into the rest of your week. I look forward to seeing you soon! πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ€©πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ

So many reasons to meditate, so many benefits!

In these fast moving times when we often get caught up in the "doing" it's easy to lose ourselves and forget that we are a human "being". In actual fact we are so much more!

Meditation is an opportunity to reconnect with, to remember who we really are ....

Our job, roles, gender, ethnicity are all labels that fail to properly describe our true nature. If you have meditated before you may have experienced what I am describing, and if not, you're welcome to join us and find out.

This week's practice will be an opportunity to enjoy some peace from "all the things" and reconnect with your true self. I am so looking forward to meditating with you this evening πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ˜ŠπŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ
