You don’t know how it happened. One day, you were a totally normal human who for some reason decided to try a yoga class. Maybe you wanted to finally be able to touch your toes, maybe you wanted a nice butt, maybe you wanted a calmer mind, maybe you wanted complete spiritual enlightenment. Whatever your reason for finding our way to that first class, the obsession seed was planted, and before you know it… You find yourself standing in Tree…
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 âOsho Active Meditationâ 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…
My daily routine is vitally important. By following a consistent daily schedule I am in complete control of whether or not I have a good day. My routine is most important from Monday to Friday as I have to make the time to do the things I love before work. Here are a few things I have applied to my daily life in order to enhance my physical and mental health. 1. Get up early This takes work and commitment….
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…
So it’s a week after my first blog and setting the intention to stop complaining and I did not think I’d come to such a massive realisation. Or realisations even! This year for me has been all about setting intentions and trying to be a better version of myself. The major wins have been in seeing just how powerful setting intentions are. What I first noticed after setting the intention to stop complaining, as I wrote about in Part 1,…
You can do this right now. Really, you can. Itâs step 1 of Metta Bhavana. Close your eyes and say to yourself, May I be well. May I be happy. May I be peaceful. May I be filled with love and kindness. How did that feel? Was it weird? Okay, do it again. Close your eyes and imagine youâre having a really deep conversation with yourself. Youâve just sat down for a long-awaited coffee with You. Or, better…
We’re so excited to finally have Poncho Cottier joining us at the YogaHub Dublin next month. This, like all of our events with teachers from overseas, can and has taken 2 years to organise as Poncho’s schedule is so busy so we are very grateful for this opportunity. So who is Poncho Cottier and what can we expect in his upcoming weekend of Workshops? We would have interviewed Poncho on video but he is currently on an island teaching where…
Thanks to everyone who came along and also thank you to each and every one of our teachers and students. We’ll need to get a bigger room for the next one;-) Stay Tuned !!!!!
So What’s with all this Hot Yoga? Thereâs a very good chance youâve read that Craigslist yoga mat ad. If not â you should â itâs fairly funny. Here it is at MindBodyGreen. This ad very much confirmed my preconceptions about hot yoga and after a long period of raising eyebrows and sticking up my nose at the very concept of hot yoga, I attended a class at the Hot YogaHub. I am not going to lie. You will sweat…
