How to Find Balance

How to Find Balance

Mindfulness | Tuesday 21st March 2023

For several years now, every time I set an intention for my practice, I set the intention of finding balance. Because I’ve learned that this is the only sustainable state that allows me to be at peace, enjoy life and properly take care of myself and my community. That may sound selfish and self-centered, but if experience taught me one thing, it’s that you can’t pour from an empty cup. I have way more positive impact around me when I am, myself, in a good place. Peace begins within ourselves. But finding balance isn’t an easy undertaking. Actually, I don’t think balance can be ‘found’ the same way you find the ring you lost in the pocke...

Home practice: create your yoga space in 5 steps

Home practice: create your yoga space in 5 steps

Since I became a yoga teacher, I started practicing at home way more than I used to. I guess this happened for a couple of reasons: I’ve learned how to make my own sequences - which means that I won’t be randomly throwing postures without warming up my body correctly - and I’ve also realised the benefits of practicing at my own pace. I still love going to classes with my favourite teachers, but I also know that it’s important to practice on your own, as yoga teachers have to squeeze a se...

With everything that’s going on at the moment, I’m finding myself with a lot more free time. Many of the things I used to do to distract myself are no longer options, and I’m spending a lot more time with my own thoughts. This can be really diffic...

Yamas & Niyamas - the personal values

“A value is a value when you value it” - Sudhir Rishi. You can’t force a value. What I mean by this is that if something fundamentally matters to you, then it’s gonna shine through your actions and thoughts. If you value some...
