🤯 If you are someone who has a busy mind, in need of some restorative timeI have something just for you.

🗓️ Each month, on a Friday I hold a Monthly Stillness session of Restorative Yoga at The Octagon in Willingham Village

🤲🏻 These sessions are open to everyone, no matter your experience.

Restorative Yoga is extremely beneficial, because we use a lot of props to hold the body in specific positions that allow gentle stretching and complete relaxation.

🫁 In May when you join us there will be an added bonus of Pranayama, which is learning a breathing technique designed to calm your mind, increase focus and encourage mind clarity.

🌬️ The breath is so important, and it is the gateway between your body and mind. Come and join us on May 15 from 6:15pm for 90 minutes of blissful relaxation.

😌 You will leave this class feeling relaxed, energised yet calm.

To reserve your spot follow this link 👉🏻 https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=28536042

If you have any questions leave me a comment or contact by email directly info@milanamyoga.com.

I can't wait to have you as part of the May Stillness Session.

My husband tells me sometimes that I am aging like fine wine. And I love that.

I have a sort of childish attitude, which I think will always be part of my personality, but at the same time there is wisdom, which comes partly from experience in this life, and partly from previous births.

Yoga cultivated my mind in a way that allows me to accept the reality of my circumstances, not holding on to the past, and move forward by doing the right things.

Not what is liked, but what is appropriate - even if I may not like it.

Growing up I honestly wished I had a male body. Life seemed so much easier for all my male friends.

In time I learned to accept and love the body I live in. I understood how rich & how complex a woman's life is. I'm still learning.

Now I celebrate the fact that I have been given the privilege of experiencing life as a woman.

And as I am approaching perimenopause I know I will encounter more blessings, and more difficulties, but life is beautiful in this non linear way.

Yoga will always be part of my life, and I want to keep Asana for as long as I live, so I know that my practice needs to change.

My Asana practice needs to meet me where I am, and for that I will have to do what is appropriate, not what is popular, nor what is liked.

I will be sharing more about how Yoga can support you in Perimenopause & beyond in my upcoming FREE Masterclass.

If anything I shared here feels familiar, I would love to have you join us.

🗓️Sunday May 10 @3:30pm BST
📍 Online & recorded if you can't join live.
✔️ DM the word Masterclass for direct link or visit the link in my bio.

I hope to see you there.

May 1st Full Moon in Libra is connected to the wind.

Libra is a moveable Air sign, and the symbol is a scale. In this sign it is all about finding harmony, equilibrium & balance, sometimes at any cost.

The Nakshatra in which the Moon becomes Purna (full) is called Swati.

The symbol is a sprout, blown by the wind. The deity presiding over this lunar mansion is Lord Vayu, God of Wind.

We can expect a lot of movement on this Full Moon.

The Moon represents our mind and our emotions, so you may find yourself excessively thinking, changing your mind often, but on the other hand of the spectrum this could mean new ideas, inspiration or increased vitality.

This Moon is high in Vata dosha, for those that know Ayurveda, and it can easily tip things out of balance because we live in a Vata dominant society.

It's important to stay open to changes, cultivate receptivity & availability while being firmly grounded.

The wind scatterers, so the mind could feel scattered, but when we are anchored, we can use this opportunity to offer our intentions for the wind to scatter them.

Swati is also connected to independence and individuality, just as a new sprout comes into the world and defining itself.

The lesson here is to remember always that though we are an individual, we are not disconnected from the divine.

Our powers, strengths and abilities come from the universe, and when we forget this, the Ego comes out and takes over the play.

It is no coincidence that yesterday we celebrated Narasimha Jayanti, the appearance day of Vishnu's avatara as the fierce lion. He appeared because of the unwavering faith & devotion of Prahlada, to destroy those that go against Cosmic Order.

Narasimha brings protection & transformation through unswerving devotion.

The advice for this Full Moon is to get grounded, so you can enjoy the possibilities of changing directions.

P.S. Join the Cosmic Living Newsletter if you want to receive monthly audio guidance for the phases of the Moon. The form is in my bio or DM me your email.

Blessed Full Moon 🌝

Don't misunderstand me here, please.

What I am saying, and what I think I have been saying all along - is that Yoga is not a work out.

And maybe now, more than ever, in a female body transitioning into big changes it's becoming the reality.

Yoga helps me release & manage stress and emotions. It helps me regulate my nervous system, and it is a balm for my soul.

My approach to Yoga is devotional, and it supports my heart and my mind.

But there are certain aspects of modern Yoga that are not beneficial for female bodies transitioning through hormonal shifts like Perimenopause & Menopause.

There is too much stretching without strength building, which leads to instability and tension.

But this isn't the whole story, and an Instagram caption can't hold everything.

Certain approaches to Yoga are beautiful for releasing tension, for creating more strength & stability in the joints.

And this is what I am sharing with you inside the Yoga for Perimenopause & Beyond Masterclass.

Join us. It's free 🥰

And if you can't make it live, there will be a recording if you are registered.

Just DM the word Masterclass to get the link directly or check the link in my bio.
