Tick Tock The Body Clock

As we say a fair bit in sessions with you all, we are better at repairing our bodies when we have our eyes closed as it allows our parasympathetic nervous system to become more dominant, but did you know when our body sends out the maintenance crew to do the deeper repairs?

our night time darkness

So we have noticed that it has been really dark at night over the last few weeks and we wondered why? So on Thursday evening in our mat yoga class we wondered if it was because the moon is showing itself in the day rather than in the evening, as we all mentioned seeing the moon's beautiful face in the daytime recently, so at the moment at night not only are we missing the sunshine, but the night (sun reflecting) shine of the moon as is around the other side of the earth (wh

Everything we do can be done better from a place of relaxation.

So the invitation this week to find ten beautiful reflective minutes in our lives this week and sit in our comfortable seat (asana) and think about all the things we do in our life that helps exude a state of relaxation from within. One of the laws of this manifest universe is cause and effect, we plant seeds and then they grow, and we reap the benefit or detriment of what we have planted when it has grown, matured, flowered in our lives. So let us reflect on how often we ac

What is the gift?

This week I have really enjoyed being in the sunshine and the rain (for a small part on my holiday). I have spent the week reflecting on many, many things, one big thing is about how we view the world, and how things that go on around us, leads us, and influences us, without us even comprehending such. So this week’s invitation is a reflection… In whatever happens this week in our made up world of good and bad, right and wrong - what is the gift?
