Bliss Yoga Norwich Summer Newsletter


Dear Friends and Yogi’s


The summer holidays and the Olympics are here!  I am especially enjoying the gymnastics. For most we are experiencing new routines with the children being out of school, imagination is running wild with new adventures to be had.  Enjoy the sun, when it peeks out from behind the clouds.  Norfolk is such a beautiful place to live.  Woodland, broads, coast all within half an hour of the city centre.   Why not check out http://www.enjoynorthnorfolk.com for inspiration and ideas.

Thank you to all of you that attended the Yoga Nidra Workshop on Saturday.  I really enjoyed teaching the workshop and seeing my different groups come together  Feedback has been most encouraging and there is interest to attend another Yoga Nidra workshop or similar in the future so watch this space for future workshops and events. 

I am always happy to hear feedback so if there is a particular area or subject that interests you please let me know.

Most classes have now finished for the Summer. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your dedication and commitment to your practice.  It is so wonderful for me to see even subtle changes to each and every one of you. Looking stronger in poses, bringing softness to your face during meditation being more receptive and experimenting more with your individual posture, listening to your body, even being able to move your toes for the first time.  If you attend Pregnancy Yoga it is so wonderful for me to see you connect with your baby growing inside you or hearing about your gentle birth experience.  If you attend Baby Yoga I may get to see your baby roll or laugh for the first time.   It is so rewarding for me and I thank you for being a part of my community.

YOGA AID WORLD CHALLENGE

On Sept 2nd I am taking part in a 2hr Yoga Aid World Challenge to raise money for an Orphanage in the Himalayas. 2hours non-stop yoga posture practice in a variety of yoga styles by teachers from across Norfolk.
Manjushree Vidyapith Orphanage is set in the Himalayas almost 11,000 feet above sea level, in a village called Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh, India.
Manjushree is home to 150 children of Monpa ethnicity (Buddhist with a close cultural and spiritual relationship to Tibet). These children study, play, grow vegetables, learn yoga and look after each other all in this place. Over the past five years, Yoga Aid has had a close relationship with Manjushree and this year a new dormitory, funded through Yoga Aid Challenges as well as through the Foundation will finally be completed! This dormitory will provide extra living space for 80 children, as well as study space for the older residents.

There are two things you can do to help.

Happy holidays
Much love xx
