24.01.2022 Dear Island Yoga practitioners and friends, In light of the recent Covid 19 information, Magnetic Island Yoga has decided to keep classes running this week for ...local residents only. And until further notice. If you had planned to come to class this week and have been travelling through Brisbane and greater regions, please reconsider with the Magnetic Island Community in mind. We thank you for your understanding on this matter. Kind regards, Dani, Meredith, Susan, Paddy and Jasmine. Please see our website for more information on class times, locations and teachers. www.magneticislandyoga.com.au

23.01.2022 https://www.facebook.com/224677250909804/posts/3274753909235441/ With so much online yoga out there right now, here are some helpful guidelines to keep you safe and attuned to your bodies needs.

22.01.2022 We are here to experience life in all her flavours and glory, we are here to grow. We are here to be stretched, challenged and expanded beyond our wildest dreams. Problem is, we get comfortable, we get lazy and we are chronic habit formers, and we love complaining and finding fault in not only ourselves but others. It takes a hell of a lot of drive, will and thinking against the grain to step into limitless living. It doesn't necessarily have to be grand and elabor...ate (but, why not, if you can), rather, more aligned with YOUR personal desires, goals visions and dreams. Those dreams that so often get swept under the rug or put in the too hard basket because, they're... too hard... And they require you to think for yourself, they demand courage and ask you to go out on a limb and take a risk and that's... well, scarry. Once you cross that line though, there's no turning back. Once you see that there simply is no end to the palette of possibilities that await you, you become unstoppable and limitless. In small ways (and sometimes very big ways), yoga presents these opportunities every time we step on the mat. If we meet our practice every day with an open mind, with presence, with compassion, we understand its no different to life. We grow, we're challenged, streatched and most definitely expanded in all planes mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. And that is a seriously beautiful thing. Yoga references life and they enhance each other. Once we've touched that, there is definitely no going back.

22.01.2022 The subtle balance between being and becoming is found when we let go of expectation, effort and doing and start existing in the realms of being, allowing and accepting. Life has been quite recently. My mind has not. I see now the expectations I place on myself to do more, achieve more, produce more content, art and online yoga. Plan for the future. And an underlying sense of guilt for not. And I've now come to see and have found deep acceptance and understanding that th...is is a time of stillness, of collecting, of planting of stopping and smelling the water lillies. Blooming will come again, the growth will happen, I trust. The learning curve can be rich, the awakening profound when we finally surrender and step into being. There will always be periods of becoming, doing achieving. We must not fear the quiet time, the gathering, the learning rather embrace it and relish in the stillness. In yoga therapy, we understand the importance of balancing action, doing and achieving; Yogam with stabalization, integration and processing; Ksemam. Only then can we progress to the next phase of growth and learning. For if we are forever at full steam focused on becoming, we will only ever eventually burn out, from our own expectation, societal expectations, deplete our prana and never experience the sweet fragrance of being. #nomudnolotus #stillness #activestillness #innerpeace #innercalm #meditation #meditativeawareness #beingbecoming #watchthemind #youarenotyourthoughts #eyeofthestorm #grounded #stable #clarity #peaceofmind #balance #yogamksemam #yogalife #yogaforpeace #yogaeveryday #yogaheals #yogaforgrowth #yogaforall #yogapractice #yogaholic #prakasayogaandyogatherapy

21.01.2022 Curious about the benefits of Somatic Yoga and Movement to ease the mind and body? Book in for June 27th to find out more!

20.01.2022 "...The Practice of yoga asana is the journey of the body to go beyond the body..." - Dr N Chandrasekaran Our Western ways have created mass over-identification with the body and brought about a lot of challenge in the process. ... The practice of yoga asana, the yoga postures, allows us to take care of disturbances within the body, to clear energetic blockages and bring balance and ease. To rectify the effects of our past actions, or, over indulgence. It is a preparatory stage, and only one tiny facet of the enormous ocean of yoga. We only know we have a body when it causes us suffering. We start with the body, and the goal is to progress with deeper practices that positively affect the mind and show us reality as it is. Pranayama, a deep exploration of breath allows the mind to settle so we can meditate undisturbed; this allows us to come face to face with the Totality. That part of ourselves that is plugged into the universe, that is unwavering, pure, undisturbed by the vitiations of the mind such as desire, attachment, fear, aversion, rage, doubt, blame, shame and guilt. Yoga is seeing and knowing this part, and going beyond the veil of Avidya (ignorance) through consistent effort and practice. The more we can reside in this blissful state of pure consciousness aka Purusha, the less ruffled we become by the constant waves of life. Asana, or body based practices alone will not bring us to this state, we must go beyond the body. You have a body, but you are not your body, you have a mind but you are not your mind, you have thoughts, but you are not your thoughts... who is it that is doing the thinking and seeing. Connect with this part, it's a sure fire path to Self realization. Namaste beautiful people. #beyondasana #drnc #yogaasana #yogaismorethanasana #yogaforthemind #meditatedaily #pranayama #pureconsciousness #purusha #selfrealization #namaste #yogaeverydamnday #prakasayogaandyogatherapy #touchtheinfinite #yogaforselfrealization #yogaofferings #yogilife #yogaisalifestyle #mindmadestuff #avidya #beyondtheveil #consistentpractice #consistenteffort

16.01.2022 https://facebook.com/events/s/conscious-relationships-with-s/864313747396916/?ti=cl Join Yoga Therapy Australia and Saraswathi Vasudevan this Friday on Zoom. $15, pre-booking required.... Saraswathi is an extremely grounded teacher with many years of practice and teaching experience. I've studied with her in both India and Australia and highly recommend her teachings.

15.01.2022 Flying above the clouds, a rare treat these days, got me thinking about the wise words of Pema Chödrön: "...You ARE the sky, everything else is just weather..." - a reflection I come back to regularly, and the more I ponder it, the more I believe it, know it and feel it as truth. Innately, we really are just like the clear blue sky. We have this enormous wellspring of peace and clarity within us that is open and clear and expansive and as boundless as the sky. Why then d...o so many of humanity play small and identify with the dark clouds, the dampness and the mould in their lives? I believe 100% that we create our reality and we have the power within us to create our destiny. We feed our unconscious messages related to our limiting beliefs all the time and thats what ends up running the show. The "I'm not good enough's" "I'm not capable enough" "I'm not worthy" "I'm unlovable" "I'm not smart enough's"... the list is long and its been calling the shots and dictating your trajectory. And these are the messages that power the vehicle of your life. . It's time to step into knowing your greatness and realizing that all the rest is just a made up belief based on something very old that happened a very long time ago in your life that has caused you to put up a screen to your access to the limitless blue sky. When I catch myself going back into that victim mode (I'm not good enough etc...) these days it feels like really old heavy energy, it doesnt "fit" any more, and that's a beautiful realisation. The time is now to step into your power and shine light on all that has been holding you back and connect with the blue sky that you truly are. . . . . . . #higherperspective #mindovermatter #thestorieswetellourselves #unconsciousbeliefs #livefromyourhigherplace #blueskiesundertheclouds #yogaforinsight #yogaclearstheclouds #yogaforgrowth #yogaforthemind #yogaismagic #yogaeveryday #yogaeverydamnday #pemachodron

13.01.2022 Life goes on around us regardless of our internal experience, no matter what, every day, without fail. What repeated stories and narratives play out in the undercurrent of your day? It's easy to get unconsciously caught up in blame, shame, guilt, frustration, anger, reactivity and regret. The vibration of these actions and thoughts is much more gripping and powerful than the more harmonious balanced open minded flow and perspective. And that becomes the ingrained default.... Yoga teaches us to favour neither. It's not all rainbows and roses just as it's not all doom or gloom. We learn to find a common ground. Ground that is balanced, neutral, sustainable, supportive, observant, allowing and accepting. The ultimate practice. Sure, we WILL loose our s#%*t from time to time, but its the bouncing back after the storm, rather than getting caught up in the reliving of the drama over and over again which is the true mark of our progress on the path. This is your life. You hold the key, you are driving the bus.

11.01.2022 Praka.... Whats in a name? When choosing a business name, I hesitated to use a Sanskrit word, as I knew it could bring challenges for some in pronunciation and in remembering it, and didn't want it to appear pretentious. Yet, I kept coming back to this illustrative and powerful word Praka. It's resonance holds such a deep essence and expresses so clearly my goal and purpose as a yoga teacher and therapist. To help others uncover their light. It's understood that in... each and every one of us, we have an eternal radiant light, our Jyoti. It resides in our spiritual heart. Over time with challenging experiences and life's conditioning, we can build an armor around this light as a means of protection, we don't want to be seen, but its always there. The luminous emanation of this light is Praka. It is my hope that through these timeless and ancient more relevant than ever practises and teachings of yoga that you too connect with your light and live from this expanded bright place. We eventually understand and know that what we need is within us and the grip for external seeking lessens. In alignment with the full moon and Gurupurinama a spiritual celebration and honouring of our teachers, our Gu Ru. Those who remove darkness, or more aptly, those who show us where our darkness is so through these practices, teachings and wisdom we can uncover it ourselves and realise our luminosity. To all those who help us to illuminate our path so that our lights too can shine bright and we too can be beacons for the world. Thank you and blessings, eternal gratitude.

10.01.2022 "She refused to settle, for she had a wild heart and wild hearts cannot be easily tamed." - R. G. Moon How willing are you to open your heart? To feel, to express, to share. To give without the expectation of getting back, to live your truth when needed the most. ... Do you have a dream, a plan, a vision? And how long have you suppressed it for fear of failure, not being "good enough" or a mentality that its "all been done before"? This suppression creates what we call in yoga Dukham. Often translated as suffering, a more accurate diagnosis is a tightness or restriction around the Hridaya, the spiritual heartspace. Or better known as Sukham; a good space. When were not honouring our deepest heart desires and living with purpose (and there may be many and changing), we are literally akin to wilting flowers. The heart is the dwelling of physical and spiritual being, and calls for a wisdom based around feeling over mind based reasoning. May you find your raison d'être and live it to its fullest honouring your wild heart! #heartoverhead #heartbasedliving #openhearted #honouryourtruth #livetoyourfullest #dukham #sukham #wildheart #hridayam #hridaya #honouryourheartsdesire

08.01.2022 Shine bright and take flight. Zoom in and you'll notice a grainy patch if black flecks the left of the sun. These are Brolga, also known as Australian cranes. These are not small birds. We witnessed 100's of them riding the wind currents kilometres above the earth, in pure joy just for the sake of it.... Mesmerised by their effortless grace and ease in the moment, I was reminded that the simple things are the most powerful. When we're in the flow of our life riding that serendipitous wave, there is no struggle, there is no suffering and all will happen when the divine timing decides. May your day be filled with wonder and awe and may you be inspired to take flight into the magical unknown. #flylikeabrolga #limitlessliving #shinebright #yogaintheeveryday #beinspiredbynature #takeflight #magicalunknown #yogaeverywhere #yogamksemam #prakasayogaandyogatherapy See more

07.01.2022 I couldn't care less what political party you follow, whether you think Trump is the best thing or worst thing that happened to the world. I don't care what your opinion is on vaccination. I don't care your gender or sexual orientation. I don't care if you believe in climate change or not. It makes no difference to me whether you are vegetarian or eat animals. Whether you believe in God or are an atheist, are Muslim, Hindu or Jewish. If you are fat, thin, tall or short - it m...akes no impact on my life. I have no interest in whether you think Covid-19 is a hoax or if you follow the mainstream news as gospel... none of this matters to me in the grand scheme of things. I am not above anyone. This is all linear and formulated and has nothing to do with our essence or our fundamental nature. What I do ponder is: How can I be more giving, more trusting, more accepting, more open, more compassionate, more caring, considerate and kind, more loving, more jovial, more aware, more present, more honest, more generous, more grateful, more gracious? And how can I be less reactive, less negative, less judgemental, less closed minded, less divided, less fragmented, less fearful, less manipulative, less egotistical? How can I let go of my stuff? How can I bring balance, to my life and help others see this possibility. How can I be a positive influence, a beacon of light, a guide. How can I contribute to the awakening, evolution and expansion of the planet and its inhabitants? How can I help raise consciousness? How can I be of service not a hinderance? How can I be in full acceptance of all? The light and the dark. I am here to honour this sacred gift of life in the fullest way possible. This is yoga in action. Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu.

06.01.2022 Western science is finally catching up to what the ancient yogis and Eastern philosophies has has wisdom on for thousands of years!! We ARE vibrational energetic, electromagnetic beings. To stay healthy and vital, we must focus on balancing our energy body.

06.01.2022 C R E A T I V I T Y: the ability to transcend traditional ideas, rules, patterns, relationships, or the like, and to create meaningful new ideas, forms, methods, interpretations, etc.; originality, progressiveness, or imagination: We are all creators. Anyone who says they don't have a creative bone in their body hasn't dug deep enough. To be human is to be a creative. We thrive on it, it fuels us and keeps life fresh and innovative. The most reassuring thing for me upon... waking is knowing that I hold the brush to create my day, week, life however I choose to. No matter what arises mentally physically, emotionslly or globally, in any moment, I can create my reality. You don't have to be an artist or designer to be creative, all it requires is walking a little more on the wild side and seeing the bigger picture. Life is here for us to have an experience so we expand and open. Once we start breaking away from the societal shackles, we see the bigger picture. The universe is here to support us and nurture us and fun is the driving force. When we open our hearts and minds and allow the creative forces to flow through us alchemy happens... or in other words "Let the Force Be With You"... #createyourreality #itsalljustenergy #yogaofcreation #theresacreatorinallofus #yogaforlife #yogafuelscreativite #creativedrive #alchemy #lettheforcebewithyou #usetheforce. #creativeforceofnature #theuniverseishereforyou #universegotyourback See more

03.01.2022 When teaching a yoga class, I'll often invite the students to... "stop thinking about what you're doing and step into the realm of feeling, sensing and being". If we could all try live a little more from a heart centered place, the Anahata, things may not have gotten to the dire state of affairs that were now seeing. Its never too late to start, and at first it might take a bit of effort. The logical, rational, reasoning mind will no doubt try take back control and run th...e show. If you have the insight to meet that too from a heart centered place it will soften and surrender. All it takes is a bit of practice, the ability to stay present and not slip back into old reactive tendencies. Science can't see this, mathematics can't rationalize this but you can feel it and experience the positive effects rippling through every facet of your life. Happy heart centered living. #heartcentered #staypresent #awakenconsciousness #loveroflive #livefromtheheart #heartnothead #yogaoffthemat #prakasayogaandyogatherapy #yogalifestyle #yoginilove #yogiofinstagram #yogaheals #yogaisunion #anahata #anahatachakra #surrendertotheflow #softensurrenderstrengthenshine #bethelight #bethelightindarkness #yogaofferings #yogaeverydamnday #joyforlife #shinefortheworld

01.01.2022 Happy International Day of Yoga I honour and celebrate all the great saints, sages, guru's, yogi's and yogini's who have dedicated their lives to keeping these teachings alive and thriving for the benefit of all human kind. I honour my many wonderful and committed teachers along my yoga journey who have shown me their fierce passion, grit and determination in living this path, inspiring and humbling me along the road....

01.01.2022 The simplest most profound act in this life is to share and spread joy and beauty. It not only elevates our own being, it creates positive momentum in the lives of all we touch. This comes in many forms. Art, music poetry are more obvious, but the simple act of appreciating a flower, sharing a positive message, being kind to another, relishing in the natural beauty all around or smiling at a stranger are equally as powerful and uplifting. We will never progress if we con...tinue to focus on darkness, doom and gloom. It's a distraction from the inner work, it sends our energy spiraling and ultimately takes us away from ourselves and our true purpose. Yes there is darkness and evil in the world, yes the scales are tipped, yes, there's a lot of suffering. We must shine light on the darkness for it to be seen and dissolved. Just don't loose sight of the bigger picture amidst all of this. Make the commitment to your Self and the greater good to be an outlier, to rise beyond what the masses are conforming to and walk your own path. One paved with hope and aspiration, with benevolence and beauty, with light, joy and Truth. Leave your good mark in this life and if you can't do that, at least don't add more debris. It's one of the fundamental principals of yoga, Ahimsa, do no harm. A new earth is coming. #truthseeker #benevolence #lightondark #illumination #spreadjoy #elevateconsciousness #hope #anewearth #yogaeveryday #yogaeverydamnday #yogaconsciousness #consciousnessrising #yogahelps #yogaofferings #ahimsayoga #ahimsa #bekind #kindness #weareone #yoginilove #yogaforever #yogabringstruth See more
