10 Ways To Practice Yoga in the Office *** Ok, so your office doesn’t exactly include being able to ‘quit the day job’ and fulfill your lifelong dream of becoming a yoga instructor yet on the list of holiday options. That’s ok. These things take time, (and money!). We all know what it’s like to sit uncomfortably at a desk for hours at a time, secure in the knowledge that next month’s rent will be payable, yet physically itching to…
Sometimes we forget the small things. We just do. Life gets hectic. Schedules get busy. Stress affects our close relationships. And we forget how unbelievably lucky we are. For St. Paddy’s Day, let’s remember how lucky we are to be here. To be breathing. To be able to experience life, in any form that it presents itself. To view challenges as lessons and the happy moments as gifts. Below are a few quotes to help remind us what a miracle…
So dairy seems to be the hardest thing for people to ‘give up’ when they want to eat a plant based, vegan diet. Cheese is undoubtedly addictive, even I will admit that as a vegetarian in my early teens I ate so much cheese, before I understood how bad it is for our bodies and for the environment, and especially for the cows it comes from. When I transitioned to a vegan diet I cut cheese out completely, no vegan…
When we visited the beautiful people over at Youth Nation yesterday to see where we’re at with YogaHub and HappyFood‘s social media and stuff they told us that our ‘marketing’, along with everyone elses’, should be all about storytelling. Why? Because we all love stories. We love movies, books, comedians, blogs, catching up with friends over coffee and ‘having the chats’. It’s all stories! What’s so valuable to realise here is that most of what’s going on inside our heads…

Sunday’s are my day off, well they’re meant to be but with the end of the college year looming and dissertations etc to do they have become a 12 hour shift at my laptop type of day. My brain starts to go fuzzy after 2 or 3 hours and then I am forced to get up from my work and go and cook something. Sunday’s are about brunch/lunch and more me it’s got to be filling. Also I’m in a…
After another amazing activity filled weekend of the 200hr teacher training course at YogaHub, there are many things I could write about. On reflection, the most powerful of all activities that took place over the course of the weekend was my first experience of an “Osho Active Meditation” technique with Casey. Before I delve into the experience of the meditation itself, I must first outline a bit about the background of the man behind the practice. Who is Osho? Osho…

Last week when we detailed the Yamas, we broadly defined how a yogi is encouraged to behave morally in relationships. It was the first limb of Patanjali’s 8-fold path of yoga. It’s really important to note that these relationships encompass not only our relations with friends, family, and acquaintances, but the relationship we have with ourselves. As we detail the second half of the basic yogic principles, and the second limb of Patanjali’s 8-fold path, we go further into how…
