Mindful Touch

We retreated into retreat last week and recharged our batteries with yoga, meditation, delicious vegan food, drumming, exposure to nature and laughter. ✨😁

Back in the studio this week our yoga practice has been focused on the neck, shoulders, our voice and self-expression.
Having regular practice that grounds us and brings the feeling of safety within allows us to express ourselves with bigger freedom and creativity.
Retreating within is the key here as without it we don’t know ourselves and how to express that that we don’t have a clue about?
Let’s not amplify the noise of the world around us, instead share the stillness, stability, joy, beauty, creativity in your unique way! ✨

Start with a massage or gentle yoga session if stopping and turning inwards is difficult for you. ✨

Food fuels and nourishes the body. Your eating is part of your yoga. Feeling light yet grounded in the body and clear in the mind is a byproduct of simple, good food. Yoga and Ayurvedic diet slightly vary from each other, but basically recommend foods that have sustained civilizations for centuries, which, funnily enough, are not in favor today. A variety of grains, vegetables, pulses, spices, and good fats.
What is your favourite simple, good and nourishing meal?
I tend to cook without recipes with what I have on hand but all variations of simple dhal curries are my favourite.
See you on yoga mat or my massage table for more nourishment!

Sesame oil is the queen of oils. It contains powerful antioxidants, minerals, it’s greatly nourishing for the skin, muscles, bones and nervous system. Its velvety consistency will make you feel like a queen when used at home for a self massage or in my studio for delicious Ayurvedic massage treatments.

It is always a good idea to have a massage.
It is an especially great idea if you are pregnant.
Pregnancy massage relieves all the common tensions experienced during that time and also allows you to relax, release worries, anxieties and to enjoy this special time more.
Remember that when you relax your little one will relax as well. You need to be relaxing for two now! 😊✨

What a beautiful colour on this hydrangea!!!
Inviting mindfulness into our lives through yoga practice, meditation, massages and creativity allows us to notice what colours (and anything & everything else…) make us comfortable, safe, grounded and support our wellbeing and what don’t.
Notice.

Don’t shy away from using helpful props in your yoga practice.
The humble yoga straps and blocks are so versatile. Sometimes and in some positions they offer support and ease. At other times and positions they offer a way to extend the positions and get deeper into them.
It depends on what we need at the time.
When we feel particularly stressed, anxious or unmotivated they offer something tangible to hold on and help us not to skip our yoga practice when we need it the most.

Breathe, relax and find more space in the body and mind ✨

The best part of Abhyanga, Ayurvedic massage, is the head and face part - at least for me.
It’s so releasing! The head gets stimulated and relaxed which allows release of persistent thoughts or at least they feel further away.
And with the melt of the facial muscles the habitual emotional responses also melt away…✨
You can experience full body Abhyanga or focus on head & feet.
Book your session now and look forward to all your tension melting away.

It's time of holidays, sun, beach, fun, slow walks, ... yes but why is it so difficult for me to switch off? Do you feel like that sometimes, often or even all the time?

There's a lot that regular yoga practise and massages can offer you.
But let's focus just on one aspect of massage and that is the oil itself.
As a ayurvedic massage practitioner I make sure I use the best quality oils.
Good oils in our food and in our massages are nurturing, supporting and grounding.
They can release any imbalances from the deeper tissues so they can be dealt with as well as build up the tissues, nurish and rejuvenate them.

So what delicious oils will you get to experience when having massage with me?
Ayurveda's favourite organic black sesame seed oil and organic coconut oil which is lighter cooling and suitable for summer, as well as more specialised ayurvedic medicated oils. My favourite ones are Dhanvantri for pregnancy a relaxation massage and Maha Narayan for more targeted work for muscles and joints. They both contain a long list of healing herbs. They sure make my work easier. 😊✨

Why not one of these mornings gently greet the hip flexors, then say hello to the glutes - in that second pic we don't want to lift the leg to high, avoid rotation in the hip, and then find your balance for the day in a little monkey squat balance, be as light as a bird sitting on a branch. Finish up with some mindful regular breath, count to 5 to inhale, 5 to exhale. Know that you're inhaling! Know that you're exhaling!

I do have some spots available in my Tuesday morning yoga sessions, 9.30 - 10.30am.

Move, breathe, smile and meditate! ✨
