Morning Yoga Flow!

July 16, 2015 by Lucy Leave a Comment

It’s summer! I love to practice yoga outside – there’s something deliciously freeing about moving and breathing deeply out in the open air.  Our latest online Morning Yoga Flow class was filmed out in the back garden of my new house.  It’s such a beautiful space and it’s a pleasure to share it – and this practice – with you.

Lots of you asked for a short(ish), morning practice, so I hope this will do the trick! Twenty minutes to get you fired up, warmed up and ready to face the day.

It’s inspired by the summer and by you. It’s about expanding our hearts, meeting ourselves just as we are; it’s about celebrating the light, the day and this amazing body that moves and lives and breathes.  Whatever the weather (and the summer rain makes an appearance in this video!),  this class can be used to wake up the body and mind at any time of the day, or year.  Enjoy. Breathe it all in.

I’m pretty sure our newest yoga intern, Nina (#Ninalovesyoga) steals the show in this one; it’s worth a watch just to see her lording it up! 🙂

I’d love to hear what you think – let me know in the comments!

Keep practicing, keep flowing, my friends! Wishing you a summer of love and light xx

Bedtime Yoga!

June 10, 2015 by Lucy Leave a Comment

Bedtime Yoga was far and away the most popular request for a new online class – so here it is!  A bedtime yoga class to stretch out the day and get ready for a restful night.

Sleep can be an emotive subject – especially when we’re not getting enough.  It’s possible to be too tired to sleep – and our ever-increasingly stressful lives often leave us energetically depleted and over stimulated.  So even when bedtime arrives, our brains are still whirring and stress hormones are still flying around our body.  Taking just a little bit of time to consciously unplug from all the go-go-go can help our stress levels to even out and remind ourselves that preparing for bed is just as important as getting to sleep.  The two are interconnected.  Gentle movement unblocks energy and tension sticking points within the body; deep, even breathing helps activate our parasympathetic nervous system – our rest and digest response.  Which is a good place to be at bedtime!

This also works nicely as a gentle flow class for those times where you’re feeling a little low on energy and just need some nurturing.

So go get your comfy PJs on and join me for some bedtime yoga.  Wishing you peaceful nights, my friends!

Yoga for Balance and Confidence!

May 16, 2015 by Lucy Leave a Comment

Balance.  Isn’t it what we’re all looking for?  Work-life balance.  A balanced diet.  Steady emotions. That sweet spot of ease and contentment.  We search for it, strive for it, but how many of us have it sorted and under control?

I talk about finding balance a lot, in and out of classes.  Other than ‘being bendy’, the wild balancing poses are what many percieve yoga to be.  On the mat, it’s easy to find ourselves feeling frustrated and unaccomplished by our wobbling leg, our steely gaze burning a hole in the wall ahead as we try to attain the perfect Tree Pose…Bakasana…Natarajasana…without face-planting the wall/floor/person on the mat next to us!

But – ahh, Yoga – you multifaceted beauty!  Balancing poses challange and strengthen us physically but reveal so much more to us about our inner states of being.  Our energy levels, the busy-ness of our mind, the distractions we listen to, our ego bubbling up from within berating us if we fall – and getting cocky when we fly! Yoga is all about balance, but the poses are just the beginning.

The poses – all of them – can be a meditation.  Places and shapes and challenges from which to observe our body and the movements of our mind: our fears, our hopes. The stillness in between breaths.

The challenge isn’t about balancing on one leg, but finding the balance between holding on and letting go.

Practice balancing – and falling – with me in this full, 40 minute online class!  You’ve got this! We’ll catch you.  Stay playful, my friends, it’s only yoga 🙂

Would love to hear how you get on! Leave me a comment and let me know!

Keep practicing and stay frosty 🙂 xx

Yoga for Motivation!

February 18, 2015 by Lucy Leave a Comment

The nights are getting a little shorter, the evenings a little lighter, the birds sounding a lot more vocal! Whatever the weather outside, stirring some energy around can help us to feel lighter, warmer and more motivated.  So whether you’re still feeling the winter blues, or wanting to get a jump-start into Spring, hopefully this dynamic Yoga for Motivation practice will get you stretched out, the blood pumping, and your inner fires roaring to grab the new season – or whatever’s next on your to-do list – by the metaphorical horns.

Enjoy, my friends – and let me know how you get on, I’d love to hear from you!

Do you have areas, issues or topics you’d like to see future yoga videos focus on?  Let me know and I’ll do my best to cover them 🙂

Let’s do this! See you on the mat, my friends! x
