How Yoga Taught Me to Embrace Change Slowly

Maggie Giuffrida
Regardless of what our transitions look or feel like, one thing is for certain —they're an inevitable part of the process. It's natural to want to skip ahead to the next chapter, but by doing so, we're ultimately depriving ourselves of the opportunity to enjoy the present and appreciate the transition... Read More...

An Amazing Life Lesson From a Brain Tumour Survivor

Dan Vespa
2 years ago I had brain surgery. Now some people might say I am lucky to be alive and I am, but when I was faced with it I framed it as an opportunity. It was scary at first but one the initial shock wore off I thought “how can I go through this and still thrive?” I took it as a positive and not a negative. A chance to grow as a person even though the next year or longer of my life was going to be more different then I would ever know it. How many things have happened in your life that if you were to frame them a little differently the outcome would have been more positive? Read More...

4 Helpful Tips to Get Back into Yoga After Taking a Break

Having Time
In my entire life I have never met a yogi who wouldn't take a break from his practice. There comes a point in time when even the most amazing relationships hit a pause. Naturally we go on hiatus and mingle with other issues. I took a break from my yoga practice and wasn't sure if I would ever return to yoga. Sure enough my yoga mat was gathering dust under the bed for months! But then, something had changed which led me back into my yoga practise... Read More...

Preventing Burnout on the Way to Success: 3 Smart Steps

Heather Rees
For most of my life I was an achiever. I pushed through, made the grade and impressed – or tried to. It made me feel important and valuable. Worthy. It gave me purpose. I was going after success. In return for my exceptional loyalty to productivity and achievement, I expected a kind of happiness like the people in those commercials walking across a lawn of green grass, all white teeth smiling and glowing health. I expected that. I expected the feeling that makes one feel sure footed and vital in this world. But I didn’t get that! So how do you break that cycle? Learn to preventing burnout on the way to success... now. Read More...

Morning Practice: Waking Up Everyday on Top of the World

Heidi Barr
Waking Up is More Than Just The Physical Act of Coming Out of a Sleep State... Don’t be afraid to see what you see, hear what you hear, think what you think, or feel what you feel. Wake up. Notice how things grow. Don’t be afraid to see what you see, hear what you hear, think what you think, or feel what you feel. Attend sunrises. – Douglas Wood Read More...

Going Unplugged: The Counterintuitive Way to Increase Your Energy

Laura Yamin
If you are a driven, ambitious, go-getter, the idea of taking a rest day, going unplugged and slowing down can feel baffling, counter-intuitive and well ain’t nobody got time for that. What if I told you that giving yourself a break every once in a while on a consistent basis can improve your productivity, would you do it? When you try to control everything, you enjoy nothing. Sometimes you just need to relax, breathe, let go and live in the moment. Read More...

Everyone Wants to Be Heard: Practicing Deep Listening

Nadyne Hicks
When Encountering Someone Who Doesn’t Think Like You, Remember They Come From a Different Place... Allowing will bring you peace, because when you allow someone to be who they are, you don’t take on their drama or mindset because you have given them space to be. And in doing so, you take a breath and allow yourself to be. You embrace yourself and you embrace them, knowing that collectively we are on a journey but individually we are on different paths. Allowing people to be who they are is a principle that must be practiced daily. Read More...

Extrovert & Introvert: The Key to Understanding Both

Having Time
An introvert is a person who is absolutely cozy and comfortable within his permanent shell. A shy person is a person who has his temporary shell which he would love to lose at any given moment. Introverts find their comfort in calm low key places and they would rather read a book than go and dance in the club. Extensive socialising for introverts is an emotionally draining experience – shy people on the other hand do not always prefer solitude. They are just timid to connect with other people.

Why Clinical Pilates Really Has Your Back

Joel Key
For those suffering from spinal conditions, Clinical Pilates can avoid the potentially harmful effects of a general class and provide a great introduction to the correct exercises and movement patterns. Working as a physiotherapist for the last ten years, I’ve used a range of Pilates techniques with my patients. For those suffering from spinal pain, it can provide great results, but only when utilised correctly. Pilates is not a one size fits all intervention for back pain, and can easily make symptoms worse with the wrong exercises. Despite this, Pilates classes are generally packed with students following a set routine, with little opportunity for instructors to tailor individual programmes. Read More...
