💭 What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow. Our life is the creation of our mind. Dhammapada

💨 This week our practice will revolve around the air element - vayu - which is particularly connected to the upper body and the lungs, where we receive life giving air and process and distribute it as energy (the yogis call it prana). The air elements represents expansion and contraction, freedom and ease of movement, embracing playfulness and joy, and increasing a sense of lightness - both on a physical and mental plane. Experiencing mental constriction, suppressing feelings, or feeling irritated is as much quality of the air element as being exited or exhilarated. We’re learning to become more familiar with the mind without judging what we’re finding. We’re embracing the push and pull of life... A constant arising and passing of all phenomena in consciousness - just like each breath arises and passes.  From a physical perspective we embrace the emotional quality of the air element and the emphasis on taking air into the body (the inhale) with lots of backbends, playfully exploring how we can go deeper. ☁️ SCHEDULE THIS WEEK Monday 18:15-19:15, vinyasa level 1, yh+ls Monday 19:30-20:45, vinyasa, yh Tuesday 13:00-13:45, vinyasa, yh+ls Tuesday 19:30-20:30, ty+ls Wednesday 13:30-14:30, yh+ls Friday 8:00-8:45, vinyasa, tlc online Friday 13:00-14:00, vinyasa, yh Saturday + Sunday Meditation teacher training yh = @yogahome_london ty = @triyoga Shoreditch tlc = @thelifecentre ls = life stream #bodyheartmind #onlineyogaclasses #livevinyasaclass #vinyasaflowyoga #selfcare #homepractice #liveyogaclasses #vinyasa #vinyasaflow #stressrelease #vitality #naturalantidepressant #londonyogateacher #hackneyyogateacher #stokenewingtonyogateacher #islingtonyogateacher #highburyyogateacher #onlineyogateacher #onlineyogateacher #vinyasakrama #tattvas #fiveelements #airelement

Getting excited about the workshop on Sunday - this is a little mini preview of the vinyasa sequence… ☯️ Playing with opposites - Vinyasa, restorative, Nidra 🔜 19 November 2023 🕑 16:00 - 19:00 📍 At yogahome, Stoke Newington The theme of this 3hr mini retreat is the play of opposites – the yang and the yin, the active and the passive, the uplifting and the nurturing, the fiery solar and the cooling lunar qualities.  We’ll aim to balance out these opposing qualities to find a state of equilibrium (for the body), or ease and equanimity (for the mind).  And we’ll take the body through a lot of twists and turns in our practice to symbolise the ever present change of experience and the various perspectives we can hold, so that we can shake up what we know and regroup / rearrange…  ⭐ A special opportunity to reset and refresh, and leave with body and mind deeply rested and balanced. Much recommended! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ➡️ Click on bio to book and looking forward to seeing you @yogahome_london ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #bodyheartmind #vinyasaflowyoga #selfcare #vinyasa #vinyasaflow #stressrelease #vitality #naturalantidepressant #londonyogateacher #hackneyyogateacher #stokenewingtonyogateacher #yoganidraworkshop #restorativeyogaworkshop #vinyasaflowworkshop #islingtonyogateacher #highburyyogateacher #keeplearning #yinyang #yogaworkshop #transformationworkshop #yoganidra

💦 This week we’ll explore the water element. 💦 We connect to the wave like pattern of the breath from which we then initiate movement, threading poses together in a steady flow. We work into the hips and hamstrings, open the back and the front of the body, and cultivate inner strength and fluidity of movement. All classes running this week, plus a very special workshop to end the weekend! 🌊 SCHEDULE THIS WEEK Monday 18:15-19:15, vinyasa level 1, yh + ls Monday 19:30-20:45, vinyasa, yh Tuesday 13:00-13:45, vinyasa, yh + ls Tuesday 19:30-20:30, ty + ls Friday 8:00-8:45, vinyasa, tlc online Friday 13:00-14:00, vinyasa, yh Saturday 10:30-11:45 vinyasa, yh + ls Saturday 12:00 - 13:15 slow flow, yh +ls Sunday 16:00 - 19:00, Playing with Opposites workshop yh = @yogahome_london ty = @triyoga Shoreditch tlc = @thelifecentre ls = life stream #bodyheartmind #onlineyogaclasses #livevinyasaclass #vinyasaflowyoga #selfcare #homepractice #liveyogaclasses #vinyasa #vinyasaflow #stressrelease #vitality #naturalantidepressant #londonyogateacher #hackneyyogateacher #stokenewingtonyogateacher #islingtonyogateacher #highburyyogateacher #onlineyogateacher #onlineyogateacher #vinyasakrama #tattvas #fiveelements

I’m finally back to my regular teaching schedule - yay 🤩. Sorry about all the irregularities recently. This week we’ll start a new theme which we’ll explore for the next few weeks: the 5 elements or 5 tattvas. We’ll play with the way we can relate to the elements from the inside out, and will look at the way the elements express themselves within the body, and what that means for our physical, emotional and mental state. This week we explore our relationship to the earth, and play with some interesting transitions to examine how we relate to gravity and how we can find stability within instability.  🗓️ SCHEDULE THIS WEEK Monday 18:15-19:15, vinyasa level 1, yh + ls Monday 19:30-20:45, vinyasa, yh Tuesday 13:00-13:45, vinyasa, yh + ls Tuesday 19:30-20:30, ty + ls Friday 8:00-8:45, vinyasa, tlc online Friday 13:00-14:00, vinyasa, yh Saturday 10:30-11:45 vinyasa, yh + ls Saturday 12:00 - 13:15 slow flow, yh +ls yh = @yogahome_london ty = @triyoga Shoreditch tlc = @thelifecentre ls = life stream #bodyheartmind #onlineyogaclasses #livevinyasaclass #vinyasaflowyoga #selfcare #homepractice #liveyogaclasses #vinyasa #vinyasaflow #stressrelease #vitality #naturalantidepressant #londonyogateacher #hackneyyogateacher #stokenewingtonyogateacher #islingtonyogateacher #highburyyogateacher #onlineyogateacher #onlineyogateacher #vinyasakrama #tattvas #fiveelements

👥 Interested in working 1-2-1? SWIPE to read what others think. I have a few openings for private sessions tailored around your individual needs and interests. They can be a powerful way to deepen your practice and help you to: 👉 focus on alignment 👉 work with injuries or health conditions 👉 understand breathing techniques to balance the nervous system 👉 move through periods of anxiety or depression or other challenges in life. 1-2-1 sessions can run as individual sessions, but usually come as a series of four to eight, so that practices and teachings can be introduced sequentially and you can establish a home practice in between sessions. 🏡 You are invited into my little practice room in Stoke Newington or I’m happy to join you in the comfort of your own home. Please DM me for available times and prices. Private sessions are suitable for one to one tuition or small groups. #bodyheartmind #onlineyogaclasses #livevinyasaclass #vinyasaflowyoga #selfcare #homepractice #liveyogaclasses #vinyasa #vinyasaflow #stressrelease #vitality #naturalantidepressant #londonyogateacher #hackneyyogateacher #stokenewingtonyogateacher #islingtonyogateacher #highburyyogateacher #onlineyogateacher #onlineyogateacher #privateyogasessions #privatemeditationsessions #121yoga #121mindfulness #121meditation #privateyoga #privateyogateacher #privatemindfulness
