Question! What do Yoga and my dog have in common?

Answer: Every day I wake up and I think I couldn't love them any more than I do already. Then I wake up the next day and find out - that's simply not true!

Every teacher that I encounter, student that I meet, friend that I make, people that I train with, class that I take, scripture that I study....makes me fall in love with this practice more and more.

Different perspectives, offerings, styles and lessons. We are never done learning with Yoga. In fact, the longer I practice it - the less I know! And I love that.

After being unwell for a few months and not doing much Asana, I really began to think "What is the purpose of 'advanced' or 'complex' poses?".

As the purpose of Asana is to prepare the body for meditation, why do we have an infinite and perhaps growing amount of postures? Do we really need that many, to simply prepare our bodies to sit on a cushion comfortably?

I asked my teacher this, and the answer was "no!"

Of course there are many physical and energetic benefits to come from doing Asana. But sometimes, the Ego can get in the way. Making us always strive for more. Achieving more 'advanced' and difficult poses. But then our practice becomes goal oriented and we have expectations. Attachments. And if we are using all of our strength, willpower and attention to achieve a posture, are we practicing Yoga?

So yes, "simple" Asanas have enough functional benefits to prepare us to sit in a meditative posture.

These beautiful words are taken from the foreword of a translation of the Bhagavad Gita.

The Gita teaches us that we are not meant to be cabin dwellers. We are meant to explore and seek.

We can use Yoga to unite our mind, body and spirit. To withdraw from our senses. To explore our consciousness.

In my next 6 week series, I will be weaving teachings from the Gita into my class. Going beyond the poses. Offering different perspectives. Deeper understanding.

Starts tomorrow at

📔 The Bhagavad Gita. Eknath Easwaran.

It's February!

Not everyone's favourite month to endure, but there're two reasons why I love it:

🎂 My birthday month
🧘‍♀️ Yoga is back!

Starting next Thursday, 12th Feb at

€60 for the block or €12 per drop in. Link in bio to book.

I try to keep the focus on spirituality in my classes, however we can't ignore the beautiful byproducts of a Yoga practice: flexibility and strength!

It's been a while :)

My new 6 week term returns to on Thursday 12th February at 7pm and ending the eve before the Spring Equinox.

A small, inclusive and friendly group to practice with. Plenty of room to swing your arms and not hit your neighbour in the nose! Space for you to focus solely on your own practice.

I teach a slow, flowing practice and I always aim to keep the focus on Yoga's deeper spiritual roots.

This isn't a fitness class. I don't focus solely on movement. Along with asana, we will explore pranayama, mantra, mudras, meditation, chakras etc.

Booking link is in my bio if you would like to join. DM me any questions x

After a rough few months, I've reached a point where I need to take a short break from teaching yoga. This wasn't an easy decision, however it was an essential one for my wellbeing.

I will be using this time to rest, recover and detach. Practicing what I preach, by having time to dive back into my personal practice.

Thank you to each and every one of you who has joined me at my classes. I hope that your practice continues, may that be by attending other classes or at home.

I aim to continue my weekly classes at once I'm back on my feet, when that time comes.

I'll keep sharing insights from my practice (and the occasional dog pic for any Shane fans!).

Hugs,

If you have a pet and like to practice at home....this scene will be familiar!

I used to get irritated when my pooches interrupted my yoga/meditation. But after losing my family dog last year, I now cherish these moments with Shane. We never know how many more we will have with them.

Animals should be adored, even when they like to climb on top of you during Savasana ❤️
