Our Story

The 1000 Petaled Lotus refers to the crown or sahasrara chakra. A chakra is an energy centre in the body situated along the spinal column or shushumna. There are seven main chakras starting from the base of the spine to the crown of the head and each have an associated colour, symbol, mantra and refer to a part of the body. In holistic medicine chakras are taken into consideration as to whether they are open and free flowing or blocked. Some blockages may cause physical symptoms in the body. For example, one may experience thyroid or respiratory issues if the throat or vishuddha chakra is blocked. This may be caused by holding on to something or perhaps needing to 'say something'. Often when we goes agains the flow of nature and don't listen to our own instinct our body suffers thus creating dis-ease. When we are in tune with our bodies and connect with our higher self, we live authentically and in the present moment. Eventually this allows the energy to rise freely through the chakras from the base of the spine towards the crown of the head connecting us with our divine source. Through yoga we learn to listen to the body and connect mind, body and spirt through movement and meditation in order live a happier, healthier life, free from stress, anxiety and worry. In an age where we are overburdened with technology and seemingly endless 'to do lists' we often rob ourselves of simply being and thus we lose balance in our lives. Yoga is ancient teaching which originated in India and has enormous benefits in helping us to find a balanced life. It allows us to look inwards at ourselves and to perhaps not be so critical of ourselves and others. It teaches us the art of forgiveness, compassion, truth, love and kindness. Yoga is not just for the flexible few, this is often a misconception created by our culture. Yes with time yoga may increase the flexibility of your body but it is not the aim. Yoga is an internal practice and the rest that comes is a bonus. Eventually the body will become stronger and gain more range of motion and the mind too will grown stronger and less burdens with constant thoughts and ideas. The 1000 Petaled Lotus is a Hatha yoga practice with Eva Andrea who has practiced yoga for over five years. She discovered her passion for teaching upon return from a life changing trip to Africa and decided to share her new found passion with others. The transformation yoga can bring is beyond what words can describe. It is something that needs to be experienced. It will not however miraculously happen for yoga is a practice and one must be focused and willing to just be in the moment without any expectations or goals. It is truly a beautiful practice of self discovery and inner peace. Namaste
