Hi my dearest people,

Finally I hit the send button for my new newsletter to let you know about what's next with YogaCrow! 🙏🏼🕉

As many of you know that writing and sending a newsletter is a huge effort for me, but I enjoy it trully. Lots of creative ideas unfold usually in the same time when I prepare it for you and therefore it takes time.

If you want to hear what's upcoming and honour my time, effort, dedication and love of sharing, please check your inbox today and get back to me with your enquiries.

If you haven't subscribed your email address for my occasional newsletters you can visit my website www.yogacrow.uk to put your email address down or DM me.

Sending love, gratitude and good vibes!

WHEN A CHILD IS CONCEIVED, SO IS A MOTHER.

This month in our Wise Women Circle, we honour the Pregnancy & Infant Loss Awareness Month and focus on the identity shift that is experienced after loss of a child. Our guest educator, Sam .hood , and I aim to provide support and language to help mothers express their challenging and confronting feelings through their voice and movement. As well as sharing knowledge about Matrescence, Sam and other mamas in the circle will share their own personal experiences of loss throughout their motherhood journeys. After this empowering and healing part of the circle, mamas can either choose to rest or to move on the mat to honour and embrace their yoni shakti, womb space energy, as the source of feminine intuition, connection, creativity and nurture. This circle is open to all mothers, mother-likes, mum-to-bes and primary care takers who lost their beloved ones.

LOTUS SCHEME: Now, you can sponsor a space for a mother-in-need. Please get in touch for the details and / or if you are a mum who wish to join us on the LOTUS SCHEME. We will put your name down on the waiting list.

£5 from each booking will be donated to an appointed mother&baby charity. Please feel free to make your donation in any figure that comes from your heart!

To learn more about the event, click on the link in my bio, OR call/text/DM me for a friendly chat on 07982 944 217. Looking forward to meeting you so much!

Warning: Story contains strong language

"I'm the BBC's first specialist disinformation reporter - and I receive abusive messages on social media daily. Most are too offensive to share unedited. The trigger? My coverage of the impact of online conspiracies and fake news. I expect to be challenged and criticised - but misogynistic hate directed at me has become a very regular occurrence..."



BBC News - I get abuse and threats online - why can't it be stopped?

Online abuse against women is on the rise, but why aren't the police, government and social media sites doing more to stop it?

18th October - World Day

What I learned during my journey of guiding females through events, for workshops and specially designed classes is "women need to raise their awareness about , and in particular , as a physical, social and collective consciousness!!!"

Read my on this very important subject that I shared with you months ago - LINK IS IN MY BIO!

MENOPAUSE, YOGA AND SOCIAL AWARENESS

This article is neither a scholarly publication nor to be taken as medical advice, but rather an essay in the spirit of "what I have learned from my personal and professional experience". This is an invitation to all females and males, employers and employees, young, middle-aged and senior members of the communities to talk fearlessly about menopause. The lack of knowledge, education and action on menopause in our society and its institutions, including many public and private health organisations, is concerning.

If you are a female - or a caring male of a beloved partner, daughter, mother, sister, colleague- I have some news for you: Now is the time to raise your awareness about menopause.

October is Menopause Awareness Month ☯️

Not every women knows much about it! It's time to raise more awareness to have a healthy, comfortable and happy transition during this period of womanhood. 💓

Some women worry they have the early signs of dementia. For many it’s a relief to discover the fog is hormone-related

I thought this might be of interest to you!

A Mother's Circle in Epping this coming Friday (8th Oct, 7-8:30 pm). What a great idea to connect mothers and mother likes together to share, empower and nurture each other.

Details are below. Mothers’ Hood

*Only 2 days to go!*. This is a workshop for mothers - celebrating them, supporting them and listening to them. All mothers welcome, whatever stage of mothering you are at.

EMBRACE THE MOTHER
Matrescence & Motherhood Workshop & Womens Circle

Modern motherhood is highly pressurised. We are living in a period of intensive mothering, whereby we are expected to be self-sacrificing for our children and families, putting everyone else’s needs before our own. We have lost the knowledge of mothering that was traditionally passed down from generation to generation, from woman to woman. Mothers are expected to do and be more with fewer resources, support and recognition.

Many mothers are feeling overwhelmed, stressed, exhausted, failing to make sense of who they are now and are doubting themselves. Mothers are the supporter of everyone else but who holds the mother?

This nourishing and informative workshop is here to hold you and show you that there is another way. There is another way to understand this mothering season in your life and another way to see yourself. It is here to hold you whilst you hold so many others in your life.

Within the framework of matrescence, the lost knowledge of the transition of a woman to a mother, we provide space and time for you to reflect on your own journey as a mother in a safe, non-judgemental space.

Sitting with women to be seen, heard and held is so validating and healing; it is one of the most valuable spaces we can have in our lives. Hearing others’ stories and experiences connects us and makes us realise we are not alone.

We will guide you through the session which will incorporate meditation, knowledge sharing on matrescence and motherhood and time for reflection, sharing and connection.

You will gain a greater understanding of this time in your life and feel lighter from reflecting and sharing your experiences and connecting with other mothers.

We welcome you with open arms and open hearts!
