Yoga with Karina_official

29/10/2025

✨ Imagine a quiet, dark yoga studio, full of sweaty bodies who have just enjoyed an invigorating vinyasa flow. As everyone sinks down into savasana, a hush falls over the room. The teacher gives her last few gentle cues… and then silence. 🧘‍♀️

Except - there it is. That unmistakable sound. Your stomach suddenly decides to gurgle loud enough for the whole room to hear. Cue internal panic: “Wait, did anyone else hear that?! I swear I’m not hungry… or am I??” 🙈

So why does this happen?

When we’re moving through class, our body is in “go-mode” - pumping blood and oxygen to our muscles and heart to keep us powering through chaturangas and warriors. Meanwhile, other systems, like digestion, immune function, and cell repair, are politely told: “Take a back seat, I’ll get back to you later.”

But as soon as you power down into stillness, your nervous system flips the switch - from fight or flight into rest and digest. That’s when your body says: “Ahhh, danger over. Now I can catch up on the important stuff… like breaking down that muffin you wolfed down before class.” 🥐💨

So next time your belly joins the savasana soundtrack, just smile. It’s a sign your body is doing exactly what it’s supposed to do.

Have you ever noticed this? 🧁

Christmas is my absolute favourite time of year, I confess, a time of twinkling lights, wonder and togetherness. But for many it can be one of the toughest times, something to be survived and endured. I am so happy to partner with .prague, a wonderful volunteer-run charity which supports unhoused people in Prague. They provide not only basic necessities like food and clothing, but friendship and dignity, and a sprinkle of hope and happiness, all year round. I hope you'll join me in supporting this wonderful cause, where every penny goes to those in need. What can you do? Join me for a yoga class on Sunday 7th December, either online or in-person and donate, donate, donate whatever you can ❤️ Spots are limited so please PM me to sign up!

💛 Bring a friend — and you both practice for FREE! 💛

Nothing says togetherness like special moments shared with friends. Especially when it’s an activity that nurtures your body and mind (and totally balances out that muffin and coffee date 🧁).

Come join us in the studio for a yoga class — or roll out your mats together for a class online and send waves of good energy down the internet tubes.

✨ Here’s what you’ll get:
1️⃣ Quality time with your favourite person (or future bestie!)
2️⃣ Doing something amazing for your body and mind
3️⃣ Pairs perfectly with your coffee or wine catch-up
4️⃣ And yes — it’s FREE for both of you!

Grab your friend, book your spot, and make your day (and your body) a little happier. 💛https://karina.yoga/schedule-pricing/

Everyone - meet K’s dog 🐶

When I walk in the door for class, he’s a little suspicious — watching me from a safe distance, head tilted, tail still. It takes him a moment to decide if I’m friend or foe.

But as soon as his mum rolls out her yoga mat and we begin our practice, everything changes. He pads over quietly, circles twice, and flops down with a big sigh. Within seconds, he’s fast asleep — snuggled in, peaceful, completely at ease.

Animals are such natural teachers when it comes to rest.

🐾 They don’t wait until their to-do list is complete.
🐾 They don’t wait for the perfect conditions.
🐾 They don’t ask for permission.
🐾 They don't feel guilty because they haven't "enoughed" today.

When they’re tired, they rest.
When they feel safe, they soften.

Do you have a furry friend who joins you for yoga or relaxation time? Show us a pic! 💛🐾

If I were Mother Nature (and I’m not saying I’m not)… Fall would be my favourite child.
