Next weeks theme is The art of focus and concentration

Our attention is the most valuable thing we have.

- The Language of Yin by Gabrielle Harris

The Theme I have picked for next week's class content on our online platform is quite close to my heart. With so much pulling at our attention in this busy world from phones pinging, computers notifying, advertising, social media, work, health, whanau, home life. I personally find it a daily struggle to get the focus and concentration required to do what really matters to me in life. Sometimes I truly question my sanity or if I have ADHD. However, that's when I lean into the yoga toolbox to bring me back. I can't wait to share this toolbox with you all next week.

I have a great Vinyasa Class coming out that can be done as one longer class or split into 2 shorter session.

A Yin Class focusing on going inward

And a Focus Meditation.

Look out for them with your Weekly Newsletter all dropping this Sunday!

I'm totally amped for our new format of content delivery. We are all systems go for the launch this coming Sunday 5th of November, which means I'm well under way with planning and filming the content. I'm loving next theme for next week cause I think everyone suffers from this at the moment...myself included. The theme is Yoga and Meditation for Focus and Concentration. 

What to expect:

Sunday Newsletter with the week's worth of content and the intention of use behind it.

  • A vinyasa flow class that can be done as a full-hour class or split into 2x 30-minute classes.

  • Yin Yoga session

  • A meditation to match the theme

We recommend using the same classes for the week for maximum results.

And I'll be dropping in here to see how you are all going.

Happy Wednesday!
Had a lovely let go-of-control Mindfulness Meditation this morning. 

At the beginning of the meditation I read out these reminders to students and I'd like to share them with everyone...

  • The act of meditation is more powerful than the thoughts that arise

  • Intention to sit is more potent than the outcome

  • The point of meditation is not to perfect yourself

  • Meditation is a tool, not a goal, and it is not the final destination, The litmus test is in learning to live your life well and being able to adapt and change and grow.


    The act of meditation is like feeding a bird, it requires three qualities; stillness, patience, and presence. Stillness as the bird needs to gain trust in you, Patience, as you wait for the bird to come and land. Presence, so you don't miss the event.  - Nico Luce

Hello Soulfies

I have had someone let me know they had an issue joining the Live Stream this morning! We did in fact encounter a little tech issue this morning and had to think on our feet. The live class did go ahead and will be in the library soon. But I apologize to anyone who had issues joining. We have this rectified for Wednesday.

I look forward to continuing on this week's theme...root down to rise strong. 
Also, a Root Chakra Yin Yoga Classes coming soon.

Happy Monday 
Shannon
