On Yer Bike K Morrell !

'Namaste'! said the girl that had to swerve to avoid being squashed between a car and a bus. I used to cycle here in London taawn! I used to be able to get from Shepherds Bush to Columbia Flaaawer market in 45 minutes using only canals and parks... ok, maybe a few roads. Ok, my boyfriend at the time used to lead me safely through the tricky bits. Guided by a cycling expert I really enjoyed the ride.

London has changed. Today there's definitely too much traffic on the road for me to brave the bike.  Times change, but we don't have to lose our sense of 'rose tinted glasses' with that change. The thing I love about immersing the mind in philosophy, like Yoga philosophy is; that it gives you the resilience to deal with time and change. Claim that mud wracking I DO see London through Rose Tinted Glasses and I'm proud of that!

I invite you to try a restorative / relaxation class. If you are in New Zealand drop into Herne Bay Yoga, some of NZ's best Yoga Instructors are there. Any one of their meditation / restorative classes can make you feel brilliant, good, great on a buzz. For weeks!

For me though, I live in London and continue to check my bike chained outside, cooing to it just so it doesn't feel neglected. Cycle, Do Yoga, Meditate. Yum 😌

As the pics. come in thick and fast on my social medias today. From friends, from family over in Australia and New Zealand I think about this Yoga Blog and how on earth it can reflect such mayhem. It can't sorry, there are thankfully limits to any vocation, any hobby, any sports. So...or SOS... as we say in Kiwiland (pun intended, can't get the image out of my head, of all that wildlife decimated) I've posted a captured creature on my windowpain for you, instead. This little Bee is warming itself from the rainy weather Australia desperately needs right now. Try Bhramari Pranayama as part of your relaxation segment in your yoga classes this week. It's such a nice, gentle buzzy feeling. It's most obvious effects are that it's excellent for bringing up the mood, warming the vocal chords, making your friends laugh and clearing the senses. It's claimed also to : Dissipate anger, Lower Blood Pressure, Bolster the health of the throat, Strengthen and impro

What Does This Sunday Mean To You?

Today's Blog I was going to give you a comparison between Patanjali's Eight Limbs of Yoga and a new book I was given by my friend ; The Four Agreements - A Toltec Wisdom Book. But then I'd have to write a whole essay and well, Blogs aren't supposed to read like that. I'm often amazed at other people's ability to absorb and take in these moral codes of behaviour - I wish I had that talent. Possibly the fact that performing and singing means one is likely plucking from these depths to recreate some composer or artists masterpiece... I don't know. I'll leave it with Zel, I mean Zen... for now 😂Zel's a genius Luther who fixes guitars. Thanks to everyone around the world yesterday who protested Climate Change - it's awful to think that young people today think their futures are being taken away from them. We must collectively fight and make a change to this situation. Shout out to friends at  Julie's Bicycle  helping to green the Arts &

A tell-tale sign the world needs a soothing hug right now is because of these multiple micro-aggressions. For Ukraine and Russia that translates as war, not exactly micro. For the rest of the globe a multitude of pointless distracting 'fuzz'. Excuse the expression...hm, I'll try another: fluff, dust bunnies, wind, hot air, bla-bla-bla, idle talk.  Sometimes you must put the hate away, get away from it and that sometimes means migration. Having to migrate because of 'dust bunnies'?!! Look it up it's a term, to describe what I'm not doing a great job of describing: that hate causes wars, full stop.  Qui n'avance pas, recule.  What are the cre***ns doing over in Welly, in NZ at the moment, too? I went to my Diversity & Inclusion board meeting last night. What a sheer joyous rejuvenating thing to do: to listen, to share ideas on the things that can be discussed. Thank you Louis Theroux for publishing documentaries to reveal parallel cultures outdated, ou
