I enjoy eating my lunch at work (just like any other meal) without checking my phone. But sadly, almost everyone else is... I might check it after though, just in case there is an important email or message 😉

“Instead of wondering WHY this is happening to you, consider why this is happening to YOU.” – Dalai Lama XIV

The SPECIAL OLYMPICS AUSTRALIA were on this week in Adelaide: 1000 athletes with intellectual disability from all over Australia were competing with passion, joy and great team spirit in 11 sports, supported by 900 volunteers of which I was honoured to be one.

Practising Yoga with the NSW gymnastics team, basketball and football team, who were all new to Yoga, and then later watching them compete was an inspiring and absolute joyful experience.

In March 2019, the World Summer Games will be held in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, and I am wishing all athletes a great time in preparing for this amazing event.

'Yoga embodies unity of mind and body; thought and action; restraint and fulfillment; harmony between man and nature; a holistic approach to health and well being. It is not about exercise but to discover the sense of oneness with yourself, the world and the nature. By changing our lifestyle and creating consciousness, it can help us deal with climate change.’
Hon. Indian Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi

Meditation is to be fully aware, in every moment.

BALM for the SPIRIT
So I went to the recent Sacred Earth concert in Adelaide, and from the moment she started to sing, I was taken right to my inner Self.

Easy to support every word on their website: "Anyone who’s ever experienced Sacred Earth perform live knows it’s more than just an ambient music concert – it’s an exceptionally moving event. Tears flow, smiles spread and a profound sense of peace pervades the entire space... People return again and again to be transported back to that place of tranquillity, to feel a connectedness with the deepest aspects of the self and all things through the expansive nature of the music. Sacred Earth’s music truly is like balm for the spirit."

Have a listen to 'Om Tare' and you'll understand. 🙏🏼

Feeling blessed to be invited by the local artist of this beautiful mandala to walk it. How special to reach for the ground as well as the sky in this powerful circle representing the universe.

Great article on Krishnamacharya's thoughts on Mitahara (Controlled Diet) and Tapas. Tapas means to burn, shine or consume by heat, and therefore can be translated as a strong effort to achieve a certain goal. To be successful, it requires self-discipline, purification and austerity.

Krishnamacharya on Tapas and Mitahara Control over the quality and quantity of food we eat is critical for a successful yoga practice. Even more important, a balanced diet is necessary for good health.
