Ekam inhale, dve exhale...

There’s something deeply calming about listening to the count in a led class.

Returning to the rhythm of deep breathing.
Simply following the count.
And doing the practice at the same time with others.

Less decisions to make, less thoughts to contemplate during the practice. It’s grounding.

I’ll be teaching a led Primary series online on Saturday November 8th:

8.45 AM (EEST) Silent sitting
9 AM Led Primary series
9.30 AM sharing

Fee: 20 euros. Early bird fee: 15 euros (Register and pay by Tuesday Oct 28th).

So, PM or email heidi@heidiryoga.com to register today!

And how was that vinyasa again…?

Maybe you’re pulling your pants a bit too many times or thinking about your shopping list or your son’s football match during the practice?

The medicine = led class.

Teaching yoga is an act of service. First and foremost, do no harm.

Fear lurking behind your back when going back or upside down? 😱

We all (well, most of us) are afraid of something. Sometimes the fear seems irrational, and many times we’re afraid of something that eventually won’t even happen, or is not real. Sometimes the fears become reality. And many times, what happens is not bad as we thought.

On the yoga mat, fear likes to visit often, at least when learning new asanas.

The fear when bending backwards. The fear of falling and losing control. The fear of not having the strength, the fear that something awful will happen. The fear of opening and going to a place of surrender.

Sometimes the fear blocks the way completely. That body does not move!

“No fear, no fun!” Sharathji used to say with a grin. He had a point there. On the other side of the fear you might find something fresh and beautiful.

On Saturday October 4th, I will be offering an online event with the theme Yoga and facing the fears. Here’s the program:

8.45 AM (EEST) Silent sitting
9.00 AM Led Primary Series
Snack break
10.35 AM - 12 PM Yoga and facing the fears

We will be looking at the fears as they come up in asana and yoga practice, but also more widely: what is the fear all about on a deeper level and how could we possibly face the fears in a way that helps us to move towards liberation.

Fee: 40 euros, EARLY BIRD FEE 30 euros (register and pay by September 24th).

Uskaltaisko aloittaa joogan tai kehtaisko palata salille harjoittelemaan kun ei enää oikein muista, että miten se meni?

Pidän sunnuntaina 12.10. aloittelijoille/astangaharjoitukseen palaaville kurssin studio Padmassa Järvenpäässä.

Padma sijaitsee aivan rautatieaseman läheisyydessä, joten paikalle pääset kätevästi kauempaakin.

There’s nothing as magical as a Mysore class: the room full of people breathing and moving together in silence. ✨

So much happens there although very few words are being exchanged.

Thousand thanks for the weekend workshop in Oulu. It was lovely to meet all of you! How lovely that many of our online practice group members could join and meet in person. 💕

Now back home: see you for Mysore practice online today at 6.30 PM. 💗
