25.01.2022 Just updating that there will be no yoga class this Thursday morn. See you in the sunshine in the garden tonight

25.01.2022 Here is our online Yoga class group for those who are interested in joining our wonderful yoga community. Classes will begin tonight

24.01.2022 Hi everyone, just updating with the current Covid- 19 requirements. With the current outbreak in Melbourne, if you have been to any of the venues listed that have had covid cases, please do not attend the studio and either isolate until tested negative or home quarantine for 14 days. You can now scan and check-in at the studio with your phone. However, I do know we don’t bring our phones into yoga or massage. So alternatively, download the Service Victoria app and use the code T9W P2A and you can check in before coming into class. I also have a check-in sheet to fill in manually.

Friday 31 Jan 10.00 - 11.15am - Gentle/Seniors There are many benefits of a regular Yoga practice and some are as follows: increased flexibility; builds muscle strength and tone; improved respiration, energy and vitality; improved posture; cardiovascular and circulatory health; boosts immunity; benefits your spine and bone health; improves the digestive system; balances hormones; lowers levels of stress and anxiety; releases tension and increases feelings of happiness and wellbeing; creates a sense of inner peace, harmony and clarity of mind.

Asanas, Mantras, Pranayama, Meditation will all focus on opening our heart space The heart chakra represents love, compassion, kindness, connection with others, joy, inner peace, forgiveness. With social isolation at present, our heart chakra can become unbalanced with lack of connection with others, lonliness, heart/lung issues and disruption to our daily lives. However on the... positive side, it is a great time for self reflection, to nurture oneself, to slow down, to give self love and connect with nature If you are interested in joining the class and havent yet joined our online Yoga for Life group.

And dont forget to wear your best 60s/70s outfit! Heres a little bit about the Mantra The Mahamrityunjaya Mantra - Healing Mantra... The Mahamrityunjaya Mantra is the mantra for healing. It is chanted for the Lord Shiva, God of Destruction whom bestows health and longevity and when you chant it 108 times, its energy is the most powerful. The mantra means worshipping Lord Shiva, may he liberate us from death, bestow longevity, remove fears and heal us holistically. Chanting the mantra releases a string of vibrations that realign the physical body, ensuring maintenance and restoration to good health.

06.01.2022 Tomorrow is the Winter Solstice, the true beginning of Winter and a New Moon in Cancer brings our attentions to our home, family and emotions. Its also a Solar Eclipse in the Nothern Hemisphere bringing powerful energies and time for change. Our garden is still finishing the Autumn leaves and Spring flowers are coming out in this beautiful sunshine. Winter seems far away. It is a time to meditate and be still with the shortest day of light. A time to set goals and new inte...ntions with more light coming with the rebirth of the sun. Light a candle.... burn a fire... The Winter Solstice is a time of regeneration, renewal and self reflection, getting rid of the past that you dont need to hold onto. A time to recreate yourself and be the best that you can be . Tomorrow morning at 9am we will have a Yoga class on Zoom, embracing the energies of the Winter Solstice. We will slow down, be still and look within with Asanas, Chanting and Meditation. Please get in touch if youd like to join this class, same Meeting ID and Password. Hari Om, Jo

05.01.2022 Hello everyone! Important update on our Yoga classes in regards to the Covid-19 crisis. Unfortunately I have to cancel our Yoga classes until further notice as the new measures from the government and Yoga Australia recommends 2m between each mat, thus, only allow 4 people to attend. And theyre also indicating that all non essential activites will probably have to stop in the very near future which could be any day. So I am sorry that we have to do this but its the only way... for us to stay safe with social distancing and avoiding the spread of the virus. If anyone would like some help with organizing their home yoga practice, please let me know! Its a good time to go deeper within and meditation. Massage Treatments are still able to go on as far as I know with my usual strict hygiene measures and my times for those will also be changing. Steffs school is looking at closing so he will be doing online learning at home with me and that could be for the next 6mths. I will miss our classes with you all! Please stay safe, look after yourselves and each other. And please dont hesitate to call if youd like to chat about anything. Thank you for all your support! Warmest wishes, Hari Om Jo

04.01.2022 Hi everyone, I will still be teaching Yoga classes this week and next, the conclusion of the term. Depending on what the government decides in regards to the coronavirus, I will post up if there are any changes. As we all know, maintain good hygiene practices and if you dont feel well, dont attend classes or massage treatments. Please bring your own cushions, hand towels etc to Yoga if you require one in the class. Otherwise, I am maintaining the health, hygiene and cleanl...iness of the Studio. Lets all look out for each other. We have also postoned our holiday to Europe until late in the year and that will also depend on whether or not it will be safe to travel then. Thanks heaps Jo
