We woke to a flurry of snow on our Wānaka spring retreat today. So beautiful ❤️
Tīeke
Day one on Kāpiti island and I got to watch about eight Tīeke (saddleback) playing and singing right next to me. These were once near exctinct. Our retreat is going well!
Perfect day for our kayak trip!
Perfect day for our kayak trip in the stunningly beautiful Abel Tasman National Park.
Spring Yoga Retreat Wangapeka
Just home from our Spring Yoga Retreat at the beautiful and healing Wangapeka Valley. The theme for this retreat became 'renewal' and I think we all came away feeling replenished and nourished by the land, the practice and the intention; to allow time and spaciousness to go within, deeply rest and be gentle with ourselves. I'm so grateful to each person in the group who, despite mixed levels of experience, really approached the practice with a sense of wholeheartedness which makes teaching a delight. I love teaching retreats as they can be so very effective ... the continuity of practice, taking time out from our usual busy lives, the group energy and time spent in nature allows us to develop a deeper understanding of the practice and of our own true nature. I'm already looking forward to our next retreat at Wangapeka Study and Retreat Centre (which feels like my second home). Looking forward to seeing you all on the mat soon ... I'm back to teaching at the studio from tomorrow! X
There’s a lot to be said for intention. Jo and I have set (reset) our intention to practice arm balances each Wednesday together. Here’s Jo going from 3 point sirsasana into bakasana. Looking forward to Wednesday’s from now on!
Hey Wellington yogis! What else would you rather be doing during this cold, wet and dismal Wellington weather? I’m thinking it could be a good week for backbends?
