Yoga & Well-Being Hi I'm Emma and this is my seasonal yoga page.

I am based in the beautiful Cotswolds and my aim is to bring the benefits of yoga to all those who can, all who wish they could, and all that just want to give it a go.

Late Summer is associated with the element of Earth in Seasonal Yoga

So let’s take a moment to ground down and connect ourselves with the Earth 🌍

🧘‍♂️ Life gets pretty crazy, we all need to take a breath sometimes. Save this for when you need it most

We’re in Libra season now, perfectly timed with the equinox. The symbol for Libra is the scales ⚖️♎️

Libra literally points us towards balance, as we move through the equinox and today’s equilux (when night and day are exactly the same length)

It’s the thing we are all striving for, but almost always (just me?) seems out of reach. Life is very much that meme saying “adulthood is just saying ‘things will calm down soon’ until we die’

Balance is hard - you’ve been to a yoga class, balance postures seem simple, but the practice of them can be really challenging.

All those little wobbles, little realignments, subtle shifts as your body tried to maintain its equilibrium, that is life. You fall out of the pose, you try again.

Are you still pursing balance or have you given up at this point? 😅

What's on yours?

In Traditional Chinese Medicine and Seasonal Yoga, Late Summer is associated with the spleen.

If you’re anything like me, you have no idea what a spleen is/does. Apart from maybe the new series of UK and that Human Design guy talking about his splenic energy?!

It filters your blood
It supports your immune system
It controls and produces red blood cells

So quite important. Here’s what it means for you in this season ☝🏼

A practice to connect you with joy 👆🏼

Summer is the season of the heart, of joy, of connection. But honestly, sometimes that’s hard to find, in any season.

So take 5 minutes (2 minutes!) and imagine something that brings you joy - that’s it. That’s all you have to do.

Try it, and let me know in the comments, how did it feel?

🌞 Summer mood board 🌞

I spoke about creating a ‘list’ - a ‘lights you up list’ a few posts back,

Here’s a few from mine, from this summer and summers past

What’s on your ‘alive list’? Let me know in the comments

We’re in the season of the heart, the season of fire according to Seasonal Yoga, so how can you incorporate them into your day? 🔥❤️

Triple heater for transformation, peace, clarity and consistency

The other organ for Early Summer in Seasonal Yoga is the triple heater. Don’t worry if you don’t remember it from biology lessons - it doesn’t have a physical form

Think of it as a connection (the theme for Early Summer again)
It moves breath, energy, food around the body to wherever needs it most.

Check out the meridian points ☝🏼 and think about moving and stretching the arms to support the meridian
Eagle arms
Wrist stretches
Threading the needle
Lateral neck stretches
Cow face arms
Or rub up and down the outer sides of the arm along the meridian lines

My favourite thing about yoga ☝🏼

Over the last weeks and months, I’ve been sharing the yamas and niyamas with you. When I trained to be a yoga teacher, I was coming at it mostly from a movement perspective.

I knew it felt great, and I wanted to share that with other people. But the asanas are really only a tiny part of yoga - only one of the eight limbs. The yamas and niyamas are another two limbs. We’re not even half way yet!

Yoga isn’t a thing you ‘do’, yoga is a thing that you live, it’s in everything.

My challenge to you then, is to ‘be more yoga’. Take your practice off your mat and into your life.

Take a yama every day, take a niyama. Set your intention.

Save this as a reminder to treat yourself and others with a little more care and compassion, even when you don’t feel like it!
