24.01.2022 Tantra means to weave and to expand. It is a deeply empowering set of practices and techniques that expand our luminosity and our innate divinity. It teaches us that power (your Prana) is necessary to invite true happiness and fulfilment into your life. When we walk the tantric path we systematically clear energy blockages within the body, build new energy (Prana) and then direct it purposefully towards particular areas in the body.... JOIN me tomorrow morning at 8AM LIVE ON ZOOM for a divine Tantric Hatha Yoga Practice. Register before 7am tomorrow morning. Only $6, link to register https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/106747081394

20.01.2022 Listening to a podcast yesterday I heard one of the most beautiful explanations of Yoga and I wanted to share it with you. Thank @amyelandry for your blog post recommending Ayurvedic and Yogic podcasts Yoga is a practice which empowers one to overcome the obstacles of the mind. Why? For the purpose of the self experiencing its own true nature. Yoga is a practice meant to address the mind. Any asana, any ritual we follow or sequence we follow is always connected to how it af...fects the mind. What is the true nature of the self? Satchiananada. This means eternal, full of wisdom, and knowledge. We don’t experience this because we identify with the nature of the body and the mind. Yoga helps you to dissolve this identification so you can connect and live in the seat of the soul

20.01.2022 At times, the world seems to be moving in the direction of NOT honouring our own experience, feelings, pain or trauma. Is non-attachment becoming denial and non acceptance? Let’s stop covering up things that need to be felt with a bandaid of non-attachment. Is non attachment today’s modern spiritual worlds way of not dealing with and accepting life? Non attachment sometimes looks like suppression; an old paradigm, masculine, silencing approach. Feminine healing does not suppress or ignore. If we can’t feel, we cannot heal.

20.01.2022 If you missed The Collective on Thursday night you can catch up here. I take you into the beauty of the 5 elements and how learning about them can deeply and profoundly impact your whole wellbeing. Knowing about the love affair of the 5 elements truly connects you to life itself and the dance of Mother Nature inside and outside of you.

18.01.2022 Yesterday was a very hard day for me like so many others. We wondered around the streets of Byron while I tried to fight back my tears and heart break. Eventually I let them poor out and let myself break so I can start putting things together in a new way. Like so many I’ve felt anxious, afraid and broken. My work is my life and to suddenly feel that change is devastating. I knew it was coming and I felt ready and prepared but I wasn’t. I’m grateful @redheadwellness we’re abl...e to offer online classes and work together as a family Today I’m letting myself Be excited for all the new change and growth to come from this. Everything that happens teaches us something. There’s always a lesson unique to each of us. It means that I get to really appreciate how beautiful life is, I’ve already noticed conversations with strangers even just catching a strangers eye is so much more genuine. I can feel that everyone is holding the world in their hearts. We get to be more creative and dream about the future like we never have before. I know that’s hard though, when the now is so strange to a lot of us... I know I’ll ride these waves of emotion and uncertainty daily. But for my community, I’m going to keep serving and staying open hearted and open minded so I can help in ways I haven’t before. If you need to talk or vent, please message me. I understand and we might just help each other.

16.01.2022 Today, yoga is so often sought out to help practitioners free tension from their body. To help them feel more open, adaptable, less prone to injury, more free. Yoga does feel amazing for our bodies for sure. But, what keeps practitioners coming back to the mat, whether they know it or not, is not the experience of the body. It is freedom from tension in their mind. The experience of ‘chitta vritti nirodhah’ - Yoga is stilling of the fluctuations of the mind. Your mind feels more open, adaptable, less prone to injury and free... this is the ultimate promise of Yoga. Hari Om

16.01.2022 Join me next Thursday night 6.30pm for The Collective - a live Facebook event with Redhead Wellness Sanctuary.

13.01.2022 There is FEAR in the air. We feel DISCONNECTED. A lot of us had DREAMS that we’re not able to live out right now.... Life is UNCERTAIN. But... It is up to us how we CHOOSE to see this time. It can be an OPPORTUNITY to go inward, uncover your unique self and create a NEW WAY of being... in complete FLOW and EASE. Understanding the best times of day to eat, exercise and socialise makes a HUGE difference to your state. Knowing what kind of exercise and food is most beneficial for you is POWERFUL to your well-being. THE NEW WAY Creating Certainty in Uncertain Times is here to show you how to move through this ever changing landscape of today and thrive when things are seemingly "normal" again. Registrations close midday this Sunday for our FOUR week online coaching. Save your spot now before it is too late! Click the link in my profile or visit @redheadwellness

12.01.2022 What do you value of most importance in your yoga practice - steadiness or flexibility? One of the reasons so many are held back from starting Yoga is because they believe they are not flexible enough. People who practice ‘Yoga’ also define the success of their practice based on their flexibility. The yogis did not speak on importance of flexibility in the ancient texts at all. Not once.... They instead held deep value in the importance of becoming steady. My teacher constantly reminds us of this the moon must be made steady before the sun can rise. Sarvanga sadhana, whole body practice, (five koshas - physical, energetic, emotional, wisdom and bliss bodies) is a spiritual practice and is not confined to the physical body. When we practice in a way only concerned with the physical, we are simply practicing asana, not Yoga. We are missing out on the true potential of our being, of our spirit. Honestly, who cares if you can bend yourself into a particular shape? Why does it matter to your soul? It does not. There is so much untapped potential in you that is not accessible through simply being flexible and only practising asana. I’ll be offering a LIVE 90minute practice via zoom for you to experience your untapped potential ($6 per class) Comment below your time preference - weekday 7am or 9am Sunday 8am or another time?

01.01.2022 What is it that you long for? Abundance, joy, passion, love. If you want gardens, become the gardener. If you want love, embody love. If you want mental stimulation, change the conversation.... If you want peace, exude calmness. If you want to fill your world with artists, begin to paint. If you want to be valued, respect your own time. If you want to live ecstatically, find the ecstasy within yourself. What we look for we feed. If we look for the negative parts of ourselves, if we focus on what is wrong we feed it. - Victoria Erickson. You have a choice to look for and feed the beauty in your life. The beauty that lives within you, always. Thank you @thepracticebaliyoga for your constant inspiration and impact in my life. #thenewway is open for registration with @meg.linton and me.
