3 days of outdoors and sleeping wild seem to be a great antidote to my resistance towards darker and colder days.

I don’t know how I survived the storm on Friday night in a sleeping bag under the tarp… now I feel invincible! 😂

Winter is the prime time to preserve and replenish Kidney Energy which is akin to the saving account for the bodily energy system (vs digestive system as the current account!).

Kidney channel starts from the soles of the feet so keeping feet warm all the time is now super important. Ingest warm food and drinks. Meditate and hibernate…

Happy wintering!

Spring is definitely here. Are you ready?

Days are longer and the air is infused with fresh Yang (& young!) energy!

I will be joining to offer a Spring Yoga day on 22nd March in Ilkley.

I will share concepts and exercises to facilitate the body-mind to stay in harmony with nature and to flow with this seasonal energy into the coming year with ease.

Julia will lead yoga practice, yoga nidra, bringing it into creativity and manifestation.

See Julia’s Eventbrite page to book or for more information.

Heart Sutra, is a scripture that most Buddhists would memorise by heart. I memorised it and recite it often since age 16.

This scripture is one of the most significant, as with Diamond Sutra, and has the most versions of translation in Chinese language.

The most widely recited version was translated in the 7th century by a Buddhist monk called XuanZang (玄奘) who rode a white horse from ChangAn 長安 (the ancient capital of China, now called XiAn) to India, to study and bring scriptures back to China.

The journey took him 7 years and was later written into the famous fiction of Monkey Magic.

His version of translation is most beautiful in literary sense and very succinct, only consists of 260 characters.

Since age 16, for tens of years, I recite and study it, secretively wishing one day I will really understand it and have direct experience during this lifetime.

The most precious gift of last year was to come across Helen’s teaching , that I realise this is possible.

Indeed, I am, and we are all already free. 🙏

3 magic herbs for the best tonic in winter:

- DangGui 當歸 (Angelica root): Blood tonic
- HongZao 紅棗 (Jujuba): Qi tonic
- GoJi 枸杞 (goji berries): Deficiency tonic

They are reliable building blocks to nourish the body and yet easily accessible. You should be able to get hold them in most Chinese supermarkets in this country.

In the part of Asia I came from, they are often used as soup base and can be served as part of the meal.

When I was brewing them today, the aroma reminded of my mother, the cold winter days and the satisfying warm feeling in the tummy…

“You are already free” … like lightening in the depth of a dark night.

Thank you for helping me see, and know that I never left Oneself.

The seeker can now cease seeking 🙏

“Last night’s dream is my teacher, is it the same for you?” - Milarepa

A day of contemplation on Emptiness and finding the Inner Light of Wisdom. Thank you for the teaching, cultivating environment, wonderful learning companions and volunteers.

What a hidden gem and oasis in the middle of the busy centre of Leeds.

Seeing what’s on the wall of an independent shop in Corn Exchange before the class… I know this was all meant to be!
