WELEDA, THE FIELD.

I have, for the past year been a Wellbeing Advisor with Weleda. This is a relatively new initiative started by Weleda, UK. It is a great way to be involved with a super range, all of them being made from 100% natural products. As an Advisor I am self-employed and can sell as much or … Continued



REEBOK SPARTAN RACE

I have been asked by Dan Krueger of Reebok SPARTAN RACE to write something about the various events taking place around the UK this year, so here goes. First and foremost, I am not participating! Once upon a time I did run and loved it but my running was on the flat, straight forward and … Continued



THE LOVELY CASSIE, PREGNANCY AND FORREST YOGA.

I was pregnant once long ago! Thirty one years ago as I write I was expecting our first, and as it turned out, only baby. We were living in Kericho, Kenya which is 7,000 feet above sea level! Brooke Bond Tea Estates surrounded us and in order that tea grows there is a need for … Continued



BE INSPIRED…AND JUICE SOME VEGGIES!

Time for some more juicing! In my humble opinion there can never be too much information out there about fresh juicing. I mentioned Lorraine in my previous post and she has kindly written what will shortly follow. I met Lorraine up the mountain in Turkey! She was one of the group taking part in a … Continued



BREATHE!

I have just been reading my latest copy of OMYOGA Magazine and came upon ‘Breathe better and expand your life’ by Roisin Kiernan (yogamovesuk.com). I read with interest. Breathing is supposedly the most natural function….and yet for myself at certain times of my life breathing has not come easily. Roisin’s article brought to mind, yet … Continued



FEELING GROUNDED…

A little while ago I popped this photograph on Twitter and for some days after lovely people all over the world retweeted and favourited (how do you write that outside of Twitter World?) it. I love it and had completely forgotten about taking this picture. Sitting quietly it came to me that we were visiting … Continued



RASPBERRY AND ELDERFLOWER CUPCAKES

This recipe comes from the lovely book shown above ‘RED VELVET CHOCOLATE HEARTACHE’. It was used by Antonia, one of the gorgeous women who came to our Jambo Workshop back in November. She stuck to the recipe, unlike my good self! The resulting cakes were delicious and there have been requests from my yoga folk … Continued



OUR FIRST FORREST YOGA WORKSHOP IN THE NORTH WEST!

This post is long overdue or perhaps not. Maybe I simply needed the time to think it through and really realise what went on when Jambo Truong came to teach. I met Jambo during my Foundation Teacher Training with Ana Forrest. He was one of her five assistants during the month we spent training at … Continued



THE CAT ON THE BIRD-TABLE.

I do not own a cat and never have done. From previous posts you will know me as a dog-person. I understand dogs and it would appear that they understand me. I feel comfortable in their presence and have never experienced fear in the presence of a dog. We have now been without a dog … Continued



ACUNPUNCTURE…..

I discovered acupuncture along time ago and at that time I was struggling with weariness.  I had been ill with a virus and it seemed that I was too tired and rundown to recover.  The virus kept on returning, each time leaving me more and more depleted.  Everything is made up of energy.It is unseen … Continued
