Excess is easy. That much I know for sure. Too much, too little, too often. It is one of the easiest things to let ourselves indulge in the safety of the extremities. It takes courage, balance, and practice to remain upright in the midst of it all, and stay grounded in the middle of chaos. Being aware that there will always be limitations, and things we cannot do ā yet along with these limitations will be good things; positive and…
Here is a little rap I put together. The words are below but you can follow it more clearly by watching the video. This is my first outing as a rapper but it explainsĀ how I got into meditation. Hope you enjoy:). Fresh and Present In a Chair Now this is a story all about how, Yoga and meditation keeps me from getting down, And I’d like to take a minute, just sit right there, I’ll tell you how I learnt…
There has been absolutely loads of things I have started to try to action in my life this year so that I might try to become a better version of myself. I’m not suggesting I’m even near where I want to be. Or that I’m trying to be some idea of perfect. That’s not really the point. The point is as long as I’m trying each and every day to be a better version of myself than I was yesterday…

We recorded this, albeit rushed, the first time Nico Luce visited last year just before I brought him to the airport. I contacted Nico to see if he had an available weekend to travel to Dublin to teach and about 2 weeks later we met for the first time! It was the only weekend he had free for 6 months and we just said ‘Screw it, let’s do it’. At that point I thought this guy is going to suit…
Since we released our video of Rachelle meditating around Dublin we’ve been getting a lot of questions! Art sat down with her post Copper Face Jacks to chat about the calm (and the chaos) she experienced. We hope our project might have inspired you to find some calm, whether you’re on the Ha’penny Bridge or getting your Yoga on at YogaHub š “In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you”. – Deepak Chopra
This is the last part of the metta bhavana series. Itās a combination of stages IV and V, as it deals with Anonymous and The World. Every one you donāt know. The person who makes your coffee. The person who makes your clothes. The person on the other side of the world eating a sandwich at the same time you are eating a sandwich. Personally, I feel like this is the stage of real magic and growth. Stage I helps…
Introduction to Desk-back Firstly, I need to point out that similarly to the majority of the population, I work in an office at a desk. I also must highlight that IĀ never had any real back pain to speak of until I was involved in a car accident 3 years ago. Initially when I went back to work after the accident my pain was pretty bad, however as time went byĀ the pain was getting progressively worse. I was sitting down all…
‘Dwell with the beauty of life. Watch the stars, and see yourself running with them.’ Marcus Aurelius, Meditations.Ā I’ll keep saying it until I’m blue in the face and Why? Because there will never ever be enough of it around. I make mistakes. I get things wrong. Every day is a new opportunity to be better though and that’s all I care about. I care about being better tomorrow than I am today. Is YogaHub the best Yoga studio…
