Guidance Update on the Corona-virus

We are open for business as usual for classes, workshops and therapies and will keep an eye on the situation and follow any advice and recommendations of the Government, NHS and Public Health England.
We will understand if our more vulnerable attendees feel that they need to stay away to keep well. For those of you who wish to continue, for your health, both physical and mental and for happiness (as we know that the immune system thrives on that), you are very welcome, (You may wish to bring your own mat and blanket although we will continue to offer them). Please remember to wash your hands thoroughly on arrival at class and when leaving. For those with a persistent cough, fever, or even mild cold symptoms, we respectfully ask that you remain home until you are better. We will do all that we can to reduce the risks of the Corona-virus infection at Dorchester Yoga and Therapy Centre and look forward to seeing you soon! Stay healthy and positive, namaste!

Did you know that your digestive system benefits from having a rest?

Eating regularly helps to balance your blood sugar level, but giving your digestive system a rest for 12-16 hours can help protect your gut microbiome, according to research. Fasting can also help to boost your immune system and improve your mood.

When is a good time to fast? Skipping breakfast a couple of time’s a week will allow your gut to rest, but it’s important to ensure your first meal afterwards gives your gut the love it deserves - this means choosing foods such as vegetables and protein such as eggs. Or better still have a cup of broth, followed by a meal. Drinking broth on a rested gut can have ultimate results in the reduction of gut inflammation, as well as packing a punch of protein to help reduce cravings for carbs...

Check out our bone broth for a high protein addition to your diet.

Today is the Festival of Sleep...a whole day (and night!) to celebrate one of the most undervalued pillars of health.

😴 If you're a coffee drinker, have it before noon as it loiters in the body for a long period of time. ☕️🚫
😴 Cut down on screen time before bedtime. That blue light reduces the amount of melatonin (the sleep hormone) you produce.📵
😴 Get into a routine at bedtime, and start to wind down an hour before you wish to sleep. Try reading instead of falling asleep with Netflix! Matthew Walker's book "Why We Sleep" is fascinating. 📚 🛌

Wishing you all a great day...and lovely sleep!

Where Your Attention Goes, Your Energy Flows

By changing the way you breathe, you can change the way your body is experiencing stress. In fact, even just one minute of deep breathing can literally change your biology.

Breathing as a way to cope with stress is one of the many topics discussed in the latest podcast - in which I am interviewed for an event at the Scottish Parliament by Annie Wells MSP: www.drchatterjee.com/83

We talk about how breathing is information. The more stressed you feel, the faster you breathe, and your brain will notice this and read it as a signal that things are not going well. The reverse of this rule is also true: if you breathe slowly, you’re giving your brain a signal that you’re in a place of calm. You will start to feel less stressed.

The 3-4-5 breathing technique is a simple exercise that I often use and have used with many of my patients (and with the audience at the Scottish Parliament!). It couldn’t be easier. Just breathe in for three seconds, hold for four and then breathe out for five. It’s easy to remember and even easier to do.

Give it a go and let me know what you think. There are lots of different breathing techniques (check out The Stress Solution for more: https://amzn.to/2MZ8u8h) to try.

I have a friend that's terrified of spiders. In fact the other night, she dove headfirst into the back seat of my car to get out of the path of a tiny, 8-legged creature that was crawling up the passenger-side window. We laughed pretty hard about it afterwards but in the moment, her fight or flight
