IS LIFE TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING?

IS LIFE TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING?

...and how to hunt down your ‘most-wanted’ emotions

Hey yogi friend. Right now, I’m listening to these lyrics…. Alanis Morissette. Recognise them? Feel free to sing along.

Well, life has a funny way of sneaking up on you

When you think everything's okay and everything's going right

And life has a funny way of helping you out when

You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up

In your face

Bam… it’s like – ‘hey… you talking to me?’ At the risk of sounding kooky, it feels like something ‘out there,’ right now, in this moment, has my back. Music does that for me – a lot. How bout you?

JUST BEGIN: Your Year to be Yogi.

2018 is Your Year to Be Yogi

Let’s get something ‘yoga-plank’ straight. You can be a super-flexy hippy if that’s your thing but if it’s not, hear me out when I say being a yogi ain’t that. Forget that. New thinking required here. If you’re with me, it will change everything. You with me?

Happy days. So, if that’s not who you have to be to be yogi. What is?

Ok...here it comes.

Clean Your Slate! Make Space for Magic to Happen in 2018.

Clean Your Slate! Make Space for Magic to Happen in 2018.

Plus: A Peek Inside My 30 Day Cleanse

If you knew you couldn’t fail, what would you want for yourself next year?

What experiences are you hoping for?

How do you want to feel?

What emotions do you want more of?

When you ask yourself these questions, were any of your answers the same as those you had last year and the year before that? At the risk of voicing the depressingly obvious, does that not kinda suck… real bad?

YOGA FOR WHEN IT ALL GOES SCREWY

YOGA FOR WHEN IT ALL GOES SCREWY

And for when you're just not feeling all that positive mindset m'larky

I got a post in my newsfeed just now that curiously aligned with what I wanted to share with you this week. So here it is…

It said:

 

If you fail, never give up because F.A.I.L means First Attempt In Learning.

End, is not the end. In fact, E.N.D means “Effort Never Dies”.

If you get NO as an answer, remember N.O means “Next Opportunity”.

Your most valuable Christmas gift EVER is right this way.

Your most valuable Christmas gift EVER is right this way.

Come on in and unwrap your freebie.

I’ll jump right in and say it. It’s the end of November and life’s about to get even busier, crazier and more pressured. Agreed?

And, that my yogi friend will make it soooo much harder for you to put your health and wellbeing first. I get that – we all want to have a good time at Christmas and it’s a huge pressure not to fall in with the crowd and think to hell with it, I’ll go along for the ride until January.

But here’s the question. Is it what you want?

Create your 2018 wellbeing strategy.

November 19, 2017YOGI IN TRAINING
Create your 2018 wellbeing strategy.

Your mini-yogi training starts now.

We’re getting ahead of the game…it starts today. Your 2018 well-being planning happens now.

This week, I’m going to get you thinking about your goals, what questions you need to ask yourself (honestly), and give you a few yogi ideas to INSPIRE so you are all set up to hit the ground running on the first day of 2018.

Just so you know. This is not a ‘quick-fix’, ‘boom bust’, ‘giving it lip service’ wellbeing solution I share with you here. It’s your ‘soul-driven’, ‘completely sustainable’, ‘love your frickin-self today and every day’, ‘this is me’, ‘I’m awesome’ solution.

You like the sound?

Christmas is coming. Deal with it! Your yogi strategy.

Christmas is coming. Deal with it! Your yogi strategy.

Get your yogi mindset here.

Yep, we are officially in the rapids that are hurtling us towards Christmas and New Year, question is will you sink or will you swim? Ho Ho Ho… yeah, I know, not the most positive of seasons’ greetings (especially coming from a yogi). But let’s not kid ourselves…this time of year can be a STRESSSS FESSST.

Whether you’ll ride the yule tide rapids and reach calmer water has little to do with if you’ve got the buoyancy aid or a lifesavers’ certificate and everything to do with the answer to this question.

 Have you got the mindset?

Let's go see.

Get your spark back strategy

Get your spark back strategy

Ward off winter woes and be super resilient into spring

Seems appropriate to throw some fireworks into this week’s blog with a question.

Here it is…

Have you lost your sparkle?

If you have, through illness, fatigue, stress, or any other cause, you’ll recognise the symptoms.

  1. Maybe you’re not exactly having the time of your life.
  2. You probably have little energy, feel tired all the time.
  3. You’ve stopped doing all the crazy stuff you used to love doing or when you do, it’s not so effortless as it was.
  4. You feel like you’re not winning at life.
  5. You’re not showing up or performing at your best.
  6. You’ve got used to simply going through the motions.
 

This is not a good picture, agreed?

Five wickedly simple steps to finding your feet in yoga.

Five wickedly simple steps to finding your feet in yoga.

Need to keep on your toes in life? This is all you need for balance.

Loads of my yogi friends run to feel great. When people who love to run don’t run, whole worlds can fall apart. You could say it's some of these guy's worst nightmares.

Happy Halloween my yogi friend, because whether you run or not, not being able to do what you love doing, is scary stuff.

But we can all be taken out by life at any moment, the ground can literally get pulled from underneath our feet.

Which is why this week I’m asking this question...
