Riding the wave!

 

 Hello lovely people,


How are you?
I write this riding the wave :) What a year this 2020 has been! 
Who would have seen all this happening?!

This message mainly  includes 3 simple things:
1. A quick update about life, Corfu retreats, and private sessions with Sacha
2. A new free mantra video link: https://youtu.be/0Y3WZg9pPS0
3. An invite to a charity mantra lovestream :) 

1. Christmas has come out of nowhere for me this year :) And so the festive season is taking in a whole new meaning- bringing lots to surrender to, lots to grow into and lots to be thankful for. 

The one thing that has seemed important over and over again this year has been compassion, My main practice has been to keep finding ways to bring love and compassion to myself and those whose lives cross mine in the hopes that we may all be somewhat cushioned trough the myriad ups and downs of life- by the only thing that has the capacity to make everything better- love.

A Love we can find within ourselves.
 A Love we can find with our friends and families.
 A Love we can cultivate by choosing it, putting it front and centre in our lives and consciously deciding to bring more and more of it in to all aspects of the every day. 
What other goal is there?!

This to me is the real yoga- and this, right now is the perfect time to practice it!

And while I wish I had a crystal ball right now, that would allow us all to make definite plans I am settling by sharing the intension that if at all possible we will aim to find responsible and healthy ways to be open for Corfu retreats and vacations next year at Mandala Yoga B&B. We feel soooo blessed to have seen so many of you this year despite all the odds. AND you wont believe the new renovations- including our new BIG kitchen, new Laxmi studio accommodation and new olive press yoga shala :)

I feel so grateful that I have gotten to meet so many amazing people (like you) through this 'work'. I am counting my blessings.




2.  I share with you my latest video a version of the Ra Ma Da Sa Mantra - a mantra for global and individual healing :) As ever I hope you enjoy it and I share it from my heart to yours.

What do you surrender to... & what do you resist?

Here's this weeks video: Yoga For Surrender Hello Beautiful Soul,      How are you?       Here we are again- meeting in this virtual world, co-creating this moment together - right now while the external world does its thing.      These past few weeks I have been thinking a lot about presence/ mindfulness/ the simple, powerful tool of embracing the present moment.     To the best of my (rather limited) ability I've been surrounding to this moment- no matter how different things may turn out then what I planned and no matter how hard things may seem out there in the world... or in here in my own mind.     I keep observing that resisting the way things are does not change them, but only brings stress to me.  So why resist?!  What happens if I just surrender and allow it all to be?-  All the beauty. All the pain. Just allowing everything to be as it is in this moment and then from this place I can choose (very carefully) what I wish to do and what I wish to

Time to reconnect...

  Here is a link to my latest free Mantra Video:  Radha Ramana Haribol    Hello Beautiful People,  It's good to be back!  I don't know about you but for me, life at the moment feels very full once again :)  Having an 8-month-old baby is always going to be lots of work I suppose... but even aside from this the summer atmosphere is in full swing, many people surround me and many possible creative projects beckon.  I am learning to surrender my expectations and enjoy the ride - and I am also learning to prioritise: This means saying yes to the things that really matter and to say no to the things that simply do not fit on my plate at the moment. I struggle with this one, at any point in time there are around 4000 things I would love to do! But my baby is teaching me that improving the quality of my life can happen when I reduce the quantity of things that I do and simply focus on what matters- with my whole heart and soul.     For me yoga and mantras matter.  Here is a link to m

Enjoy it! Week 4 The Morning Ten 31 Day Yoga Challenge

  How are you? Welcome to week 4 of The Morning Ten- your invitation to practice 31 days of yoga (including meditation and mantras)... even if that simply means practising for just 10 minutes a day :)  This week the invitation is to enjoy it! Enjoy the practices, enjoy  the amazing body that enables you to live your life,  and enjoy the present moment and all the experiences that can be found right here, right now.   A few questions to reflect upon are: What do you enjoy? What gives you pleasure? What gives you lasting happiness? Is there anything you can incorporate more of (or less of) in your life to increase your sense of enjoyment? For me I'm very much enjoying stealing moments away from my little one to work, play, meditate and practice yoga! I'm also practicing really enjoying many of the common things that I can do without thinking- feeding the baby, taking a shower, walking the dogs... it is lovely to remember to squeeze all the juice out of the simple things :)  See b
