You know it’s been a good restorative session when, at the end of the class, the studio looks like the aftermath of a 10 year olds slumber party 😉

Well hasn't this been the fastest start to a year ever! Right up until the end of December I was happy saying not until next year, and all of a sudden the wedding was only 5, and now less than 4 months away.
Jim and I have decided to take a little honeymoon after the wedding, with Freya obviously (I think we might need it), so I will be taking almost 2 weeks off this June to allow for both.
The salon will close at the end of business on Tuesday the 10th of June and re-open on Tuesday the 24th of June 2025
Fresh Yoga's Wednesday night Vinyasa Class will also take a holiday, there will be no classes on the 11th and 18th of June

February 2025 Tip -
I regularly speak to clients when they come in for workshops or 1 to 1's about how simple it can honestly be to integrate the practice of yoga into your everyday life. Whether that is doing a standing cat cow flow in the shower with the hot water helping to loosen your spine, standing on one leg while you clean your teeth or taking mountain pose any time you have to stand and wait for something.
It's very important however, to remember that yoga is not simply a movement practice, it is so much more. Find moments of stillness during your day when you can tune out the rest of the world and reconnect with yourself. If tuning out does not come easily then find simple ways to focus the mind, perhaps using the practice of pranayama by tuning into your breath, inhaling slowly, and exhaling even more slowly. I like to use a count, in for 4 and out for 6, perhaps building to leaving a pause at the peak of the inhale and exhale, see if you can learn to lengthen that pause.
Perhaps take your focus to something external and create a mindful moment out of any everyday task, taking a simple joy in the pleasure of eating lunch or making a cup of tea. Find your bliss by appreciating everything good in your life and trying to share that joy with every person you meet, a simple smile or a kind word can have an amazing impact on a persons day.
