"Our body is individual, unique, and full of wonder. Our body is our home. When we bring our mindset in line with the reality that our body is amazing and is here to stay for as long as we are in this life, we can begin the work of taking really good care of ourselves and heal our relationship to our body in a meaningful way" ~Strala Yoga~

Dear *|FNAME|*
Thank you for reading my late summer newsletter. I hope you are enjoying your summer; we are getting towards the end. I have to say I am embracing it fully. Summer is my favorite season of the year. For those of us who are living in the U.K., sunny hot weather is so precious when it's here. Whether we like it or not, we have to accept the seasonal change in our nature.
I got back from my yoga retreat in Positano, Italy recently. It was emotionally & physically challenging for me. But all in all a positive & inspiring experience. La Selva is situated on the cliff by the Amalfi Coast in Positano. This place is truly magnificent & unique. I can see why my sister Bon she fell in love with the place. I was surrounded by nature: the sea, fresh air, sunshine & greenery up the cliff and their animals, cats, dogs, donkeys, lizards & much more. Daily hiking, magic hours of yoga, meditation, silence, a boat trip to Capri, a swim in the sea & healthy creative eating/ living. I Spent time with my lovely yoga family from all over the world from all walks of life, engaging in inspiring conversations. I felt reinvigorated by the elemental beauty & life force. Exactly what I was wanting from a healing yoga retreat. I return home with blissful nights & deep sleep. Please continue reading; I have some beautiful photos to share below.
Dates for your diary: I am going to Hong Kong to visit my Mum & Dad from 20th October to 6th November 2019. If you would like to book your appointments with me before and after, please let me know. I do get quite busy around that time.
I have to say, I am getting very nervous about this trip for Hong Kong with the current political issues that are happening right now. It is my home town and I am very sad about the beautiful, vibrant city that is turning into a mess. Really sad.
Thank you so much for all the yogis who came to my Summer Santosha Yoga Workshop to share your insights. I really enjoyed teaching it. Keep reading, as I also have some photos to share. My next up coming Autumnal Yin Flow Yoga Workshop is on Saturday 5th October at the Lotus Loft. See the full details below.
This month I have a Sun, Sea & Sand "Relax Me" package on special offer. This special package is covering September & October. Take time out to nurture yourself. It's important to nurture the body mind equally; especially for longevity, creative fulfillment and peace in the soul.
I hope to connect with you in all the ways I know how through health, beauty, yoga, healing touch and enhanced well being.
May the energy of the late Summer bless your spirit.

Happy summer yogis. I would like to share this image of a happy baby pose in nature; the sanskrit is ananda balasana. It is a perfect image to represent Santosha Yoga Flow for this summer workshop. Santosha flow leads to inner joy and inner peace.
Santosha = Contentment. It is a state of (internal) happiness & satisfaction. It involves acceptance of all that encompasses our lives. It cultivates equanimity. It leaves you wanting nothing and therefore lacking nothing. Natural contentment arises. This is Santosha.
