TUESDAY TRIVIA
I have more on the Dancer pose!

Yes, it's a standing and balancing posture, but it's also a strong backbend (which is why is can be uncomfortable if you don't get your alignment right!). To perform all these elements we need concentration, stability and poise, the very qualities this posture enhances. Yes we will wobble, yes we will get pushed off centre, yes it will require mental and physical effort, but we remain calm and steady. This posture is mirroring real life. The strength we build in the practice will transfer into our everyday life, helping us to adapt and go with the flow.

There's also another dimension to this but this works best when explored and practiced, so you'll have to come to class for this ;)

FABULOUS FRIDAY'S TIP OF THE DAY: How to get the most from your asana practice. BOW

Quick tip today... Once up into Bow avoid rolling back onto your pelvis to support your weight - it will hurt and give a really uncomfortable nip in your lumbar spine. Focus on lifting with the inner thighs and the shins moving towards the back wall to keep the bottom half of your body lifted.

Friday morning class always likes a little Vedic Astrology information, so this morning I was sharing about last night's interesting new moon, combined with a retrograde Mercury. If you've been feeling a bit more emotional than usual, particularly if the emotions have been running deep, this could well be the reason.

I'm sharing this because so many people felt this resonated with how they were feeling, so I thought others might be too!

The yoga I shared this morning was focused on nurturing ourselves, whilst helping the gentle release of trapped emotions, with a good dose of grounding and balancing work along side.

We moved through an Energy Block Release I rarely teach, but it felt so right to share this morning. Also included were a Moon Sequence, Dancer and alternate nostril breathing for balance.

Is this ringing any bells for you? A good tip for this new moon is to connect with friends, build a support network :)

The humming bee breath is definitely one of my favourites and has seen me through some difficult times. It's also another tool in our Yoga Toolkit for Grief. Try this any time you feel a bit wobbly...

* Sit comfortably, back tall, hands resting in your lap.
* Inhale through the nose.
* As you exhale, gently hum the breath out, keeping a steady rhythm.
* Repeat twice more, before resting in stillness and silence, which will be amplified after the vibrations of the humming.

This is such a beautiful nourishing, calming breath. Enjoy.

Thank you for all your kind words following my post earlier in the week. It's lovely to know that so many people are rooting for you!

I just wanted to reassure that I am ok! Still a bit of work to do but feeling so much more positive and lighter ☺️ especially today as it's my birthday and I love birthdays 🎂 🥳 Ix

Ps. My dogs also love birthdays...they get me a card and pressie, and oh the joy of stealing wrapping paper 🤣

Pps. The sunrise photo...this time a metaphor for a new, slightly older, maybe a little wiser, me dawning!

Calling my VIP group. Your next FREE 15 minute yoga session is on Friday November 21st at 9am (and catch up whenever you like!). It's our "technical" session, and we'll be taking another look at pigeon pose, including some different body preps which I hope help.

I'm not a fan of cold drinks at any time of year, and especially not in autumn and winter. Here are a couple of hot drinks I enjoy when the weather turns dark...

* I start the day with a couple of mugs of hot water, and to the third mug I add a slice of lemon, a piece of ginger and a little honey.
* If there are a lot of bugs around I put half a teaspoon each of coriander seeds, cumin seeds and fennel seeds into a flask of boiling water. Let it steep for about 15 minutes before draining to remove the seeds, and I can sip the tea regularly throughout the day.
* It's nice to finish the day with a mug of hot milk or almond milk, and why not add one of these - a chopped date, coconut flakes, cardamon, ginger or a little honey.

What's your favourite warming winter drink?

TUESDAY TRIVIA
I still have little nuggets of information about 'Lord of the Dance' pose.

Although it's often described as a master pose and used a lot to illustrate yoga, Natarajasana is not one of the original asana described in the ancient yoga texts. It was actually introduced into modern yoga in the early 20th century by yogi Krishnamacharya, further made popular by his students in particular BKS Iyengar.
