By Dublin, Humour, Ireland, Mindfulness, Motivational, Rachelle Hicks, Wellbeing, Yoga, YogaHub

On Monday, a friend of mine recounted a Skype conversation she had with a fellow yoga teacher who is taking a year to live and teach in Peru.

She set herself up with a hotel room, donned a robe and lounged on the bed while watching The Devil Wears Prada. It was a real treat away from her…

By Dublin, Matt Quigley, Meditation, Mindfulness, Motivational, Teachers, Wellbeing, Yoga, YogaHub

I don’t pretend to be Eckhart Tolle or DeePak Chopra (if you don’t know who these people are don’t worry about it).

Starting A Home Yoga Practice: 3 Simple Tips

By Yoga

1) Just sit with yourself. Feel stuff. Experience being human. In the video I refer to the American comedian Louis C.K. as he talks to late night show host Conan Oā€™Brien. His point is that ā€œyou need to build the ability to be yourself and not be doing something. The ability to just sit thereā€”thatā€™s being a person, right?ā€ He goes on to explain an afternoon when he was driving and a Bruce Springsteen song came on. The song brought…

6 Reasons To Go Vegan Or Plant Based

By Dublin, Food, HappyFood, Ireland, Mindfulness, Motivational, Wellbeing, Yoga, YogaHub

Jenny from HappyFood here. Iā€™ve been working in HappyFood since February 2015. I am currently in my final year studying BSc Culinary Entrepreneurship. Iā€™ve been working in kitchens for four years now, but became so disillusioned with the food industry when I always had to work with animal products, and the menus were always heavily based on meat, fish and dairy with little or no healthy or plant based options. So naturally when I heard about a vegan restaurant in…

6 Things Any Man Should Know Before Their First Yoga Class. Yoga for Men 101

By Asana, Dublin, Matt Quigley, Motivational, Wellbeing, Yoga, YogaHub

When I did my first training to become a Yoga Teacher I had never been to a Yoga Studio and I didn’t have a clue about the whole ‘Yoga Industry’ as it wasn’t something I was interested in. I was just interested in the practice and didn’t care whether I was practicing beside 30 men or 30 women. And it’s just as well as when I arrived at Anand Prikash Ashram in Rishikesh I was the only man in our…
