Give a BIG round of applause to Nic for completing

Give a BIG round of applause to Nic for completing all requirements of the Yoga NRG 200hr Teacher Training.
Nic you have been very inspiring , witnessing your patience, perseverance & including your whole family in different ways during your Teacher Training journey. Your Mum & friends being your practice students , your children bring part of some of your classes with your fellow yogis, playing & settling into snoring Savasanas .
A little reflection from you “It is ok to have days when the mind is busy & to just notice this activity rather than applying judgement. We focus so much on where we want to be and criticise ourselves rather than just appreciating the here and now”

Nic you are a humble, kind & caring Yoga Teacher . Well Done ! We are all so happy for you . Congratulations 🙏🙌👏👏👏👏👏Tammy

Dont underestimate the power of taking a moment to stand still & feel where you are at

You are either NOW HERE or NO WHERE
The only difference between these two is a little bit of SPACE

The best of both worlds springs to mind after toda

The best of both worlds springs to mind after todays Zoom session.....This is Logan , Grace & Sean who practiced Yoga & Mindfulness from Port Pirie South Australia today. Sean is currently undertaking our Mentoring & Yoga & Mindfulness Teacher Training whilst travelling around Australia! Making Yoga & Mindfulness Teacher Training accessible is one of my passions. To meet people like Sean who are just as passionate about sharing the Mental Health benefits of Yoga with others brings so much joy & hope that we can all do our bit for the better.
You do not need as much as you think ..... Nature is our Yoga Studio today . Grace & Logan mentioned they were happy to be students for Sean today to give their body a stretch after sleeping in their van for the last few nights. Thanks to each of you for sharing Yoga NRG today ~ Noticing & Responding with / to Grace 😉

Enjoy your travels & see you when you get to the Sunny Coast
ps - definitely getting a bit of van / travel envy , so happy for you all fulfilling both your passions Yoga + Seeing this amazing country !

** Don't forget you can tune in from ANYWHERE to practice Yoga NRG classes or Yoga or Mindfulness Teacher Training via our NRG Zoom Room ~ Live.

Great to see everyone enjoying the great outdoors.

Great to see everyone enjoying the great outdoors. I was mentioning today in our Mindful Flow class that Mindfulness works best when practiced a little and often throughout the day.
We include both formal & informal practices & ways of Teaching Mindfulness in our Training programs. Both methods have a great evidence base
It can be as simple as making time to enjoy nature. To lift your arms out & up and look up at the clear blue sky. To breathe in the fresh air, savour it & notice what that does to the state of mind.
Evidence shows it has lasting benefits the longer you focus on how good it feels.
It's a great way to take a break so the thinking mind doesn't burn out!
It's a great way to manage your energy and.....
It can be done as a circuit breaker or a pause if the mind is really chewing on something & won't leave it alone.
Make Space!

Mindfulness in May starts soon. An awesome opportunity to put these practices into action & to obtain certification to Teach for those who want to pursue a Teaching Career helping the Mental Health of our communities.

Challenge for your Tuesday ~ Tip the negativity bi

Challenge for your Tuesday ~ Tip the negativity bias
This doesn’t mean positive thinking instead of negative thinking
Although anything we repeat becomes a habit and gets stronger.
We have a natural swing towards noticing what we have not done well versus what we have, supposedly to help us survive
But let’s choose this week to feel “alive” by noticing and giving credit where it’s due
This will strengthen the neural pathways that help you see all that is going well , all that you’re doing well . = MORE ENERGY
A little mantra maybe useful to include in your Yoga Practice if you notice you are ruminating or repeatedly mulling over stuff that you didn’t do well, or didn’t go well. Sit for 5-10 minutes and genuinely ask and answer the question ......

What’s great about this is.......
What was awesome was.....
I am ......
Fill in the blanks with PRAISE

STEP 2...
Run how each of these attributes FEELS for you as an internal experience through your breathing, body sensations and your facial tissue
Recall PRAISE as a feeling
This will help your inner confidence grow not through thinking but through feeling it

If your squirming about this idea, or have a thought “I don’t have time for this” .....after all I’ve got to work on self improvement / all these things I don’t do well / or could do better , right 🤔😉 then perhaps you need to give it a go.

Enjoy your practice of building helpful neural pathways 🙏

Paying attention to the interconnectedness of all

Paying attention to the interconnectedness of all things ..... us & nature , is a good way to contemplate a broader meaning of the word “Truth”

If we tap into Truth as an internal practice of seeing and feeling into things as they are without needing to fix or change it, accepting reality as it is , we get a more "honest" experience of the moment .

We can tune into sounds of nature, sounds of the breath.
We can tap into sensations within the yoga poses
To give the thinking or judging mind a rest

Yoga is an internal practice & inside job to connect us to who we really are
To learn about yourself , get out & watch nature
You don’t have to look far

Just as everything changes and moves through it’s cycles out there
The same thing is happening inside the yoga poses and breath, change is happening everywhere

Trying to explain Truth can be like trying to explain music or a song
What’s more important is the listening , tuning into it
A reminder , when you listen deeply you become a part of it, a feeling like you belong

Sensing into how everything is connected , the instrument of the body, the breath & skin
Sensing where one starts & the other begins , helps the mind go within

Inside we can be fascinated by all of the changing sensations taking place
A way to practice Mindfulness , an allowing of these changing feelings, nothing personal, a noticing & responding to Grace

Truth can be thought of as something bigger than truth is a must versus lies
Quieting the mind of its judgments, helps True Nature reveal itself , lifting its disguise

Truth can be simple not complex or taken personally for example
“ What goes up must come down”
Truth can be the “reality” of everything having its cycles , including us, & eventually goes back into the ground

We , as part of nature are always starting again & again
Yoga is a little like that , there’s no place we are trying to get to in a pose, there is no end

It’s just a beautiful way of living life to its full
By teaching the mind how to stay present , a bit like taming a wild bull

We steer it with the breath as our harness,trying to get it to become tame

Recently I was involved a group discussion around

Recently I was involved a group discussion around Mindfulness and someone asked Two Detectives that were there - “How do you handle being lied to all the time”
Their answer was a good example of a practical and beneficial response to help the mind stay focused and do its job (In this case Finding out the Truth)

The replies were .....
“Stay curious about what the motivation was behind the lie”
Another was “Don’t take it personally”

Detectives need ways of staying focused to do their job effectively
Nothing will cause a loss of focus on the bigger picture (finding out the real truth) than taking things personally. Taking things personally triggers the reactive mode and can change our perspective in a way that is not always beneficial when it comes to keeping a clear mind.

Mindfulness Based Yoga has some really good tools in it that can help strengthen the beneficial qualities of mind. These can help us fulfil our “duty” what ever that is.
I’m sure we all know what it’s like to get distracted by this reactive mode and then not complete or focus on the tasks that were important to us ?

Police maybe armed with weapons / tools but ultimately it’s how they use it as to weather it’s harmful (Himsa) or can set someone free
The mind is a tool also, the Yamas can be tools .... but the skill in Yoga & in life is how we use it that makes the biggest difference.

So what does this have to do with the Yamas & Niyamas in Yoga ?
Be Mindful how you use them!
Admittedly reflecting on these have had ups & downs for me.... for example this second of the Yamas “Satya ~ Truthfulness” .
Attaching to the idea that “people should not lie” versus accepting the Truth that humans do (we all) have in some way shape or form .

Lies hurt but further suffering comes from taking them personally in my experience.

When considering the Yamas I’ve found it more beneficial to observe them curiously in myself & others ..... a bit like a curious scientist (or detective 😉) they are not there to over identify with or to take them personally, (when someone doesn’t practice them including you) but to help you steady the mind. They are “practices” To help you get to know thyself...

A Thought for yr Thursday ~ The first two limbs of

A Thought for yr Thursday ~ The first two limbs of Yoga : Yamas & Niyamas have nothing to do with how flexible you are in your body . They are more about attitude and how we treat ourselves & others.
How you treat yourself while your moving and stretching will have an impact on your flexibility. If you are jamming yourself into a pose to look good or be better than someone else your mind is not with you but against you. A sure way for the body to have more tension not less.
The body & mind have a gift called interoception, which helps us learn how we really feel and take skilful action based on this information. Daily practice of Yoga (not just the physical poses) helps us NOTICE better & RESPOND better .
If we are confused about the purpose of yoga as being all about having to be flexible we miss the mark of truly listening to the bodies signals.
You don’t have to be flexible to do Yoga. You have to learn how to Listen.
This means minimising all external distractions or ideas about how you think you should be.
It means feeling into how you are right now in the moment.
This will give you the most truthful information. Getting to know what your body is trying to tell you is the key to skilful action.
Not what the mind is telling the body..... especially if it’s saying things like “You need to be more flexible”
When there is complete LISTENING to the body , feeling the sensations fully, the mind will say nothing at all.
It becomes fully integrated
This gives the experience of “Yoga” union.
And what a gift this “feeling” of connection is.

You do not have to be flexible to feel this

Namaste 🙏
Tammy
