21.01.2022 A snapshot of the glorious Bali Retreat 2018. The experiences of a traditional blessing, silent walking meditations, twice daily Yoga classes, the power and beauty of mandala, trash walking for community, spa treats and time spent together all adds up to a wonderful transformative week teaching us to thrive through change. My gratitude to an incredible group.

17.01.2022 If you are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present. ~ Lao Tzu

17.01.2022 Who you are is so much more than what you do. The essence, shining through your heart, soul and centre, the bare and bold truth of you does not lie in your... to-do-list. You are not just at the surface of your skin, not just the impulse to arrange the muscles of your face into a smile or a frown, not just boundless energy, or bone wearying fatigue. Delve deeper. You are divinity; the vast and open sky of Spirit. It's the light of God, the ember at your core, the passion and the presence, the timeless, deathless essence of you that reaches out and touches me. Who you are trancends fear and turns suffering into liberation. Who you are is love. Danna Faulds
15.01.2022 This piece by Danna Faulds has been a regular reading in my classes over the years. Now it holds expanded understanding and significance Throw off the bonds of your conditioning and fear and celebrate the wonder of being here. Experience this moment as it is, connected by breath and essence to the whole. You couldn’t be separate if you tried. Live this day as if the earth exhales blessings in your direction, as if trees speak their deepest secrets in you ear, as if bird so...ng can lift you outside your ordinary state of mind and bring you into truth. Be the creative juice that flows through the universe. Be compassion in action and wholeness in motion. Be silence and stillness, the ocean of love so palpable that not one cell of you disputes the truth that you are that. Be so open to your destiny that it unfurls like a banner in the sky, a sign saying ‘Live until you die with gratitude, generosity and grace.’

12.01.2022 Happy New Year to all I've been a bit quiet on this page for a few months. 2019 had some challenges including the loss of my lovely mum. 2020 is a new year and a new decade and therefore a new beginning. Wishing all who are connected to Heart of Joy a wonderful year of growth, compassion and joy. Enjoy the wisdom of Jack Kornfield.
09.01.2022 Language is the most common form of communication, both speaking and hearing.

08.01.2022 Such wisdom and deep beauty. It shines from her eyes, smile and heart.
06.01.2022 A little bit of loveliness from the past. DESIDERATA Go placidly amid the noise & haste, & remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly & clearly; and listen to others, even the dull & ignorant; they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain & bitter; for always there will be ...greater and lesser persons that yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity & disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass. Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue & loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive him/her to be and whatever your labours & aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham, drudgery & broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy.

This syndrome is thought to result from sp...asm of the piriformis which causes irritation of the sciatic nerve as it passes across (or through) the muscle. Spasm in the piriformis can be precipitated by an athletic injury or other trauma." http://www.dailybandha.com//healing-with-yoga-piriformis-s
