Dear Yogis,

Hope your Christmas is shaping up as lovely as ever.  Last night I went to Christmas Carols at the Anglican Church in Kyneton which features the Kyneton Brass Band.  I nabbed a seat right down the back because the band is so loud, any closer and you get blown away.

GALLERIES AND ARTWORK:    This Christmas you can find my work at *MT.MACEDON GALLERY, next to the Trading Post (go down the lane).  I will also be at *DROMKEEN in Riddells Creek – when you get to Riddells creek keep going – it is well signposted and you will enjoy seeing the homestead (you can even camp there). They are the home of Australian Children’s Literature illustrations (“Possum Magic” etc), plus the perfect High Tea on Sundays.  From January you will also find my work at *ART ON PIPER and of course on Instagram.  The drawings are selling as fast as I do them.  Like the “Littlest Dragon” on a tea bag,  to the left.

YOGA FOR INCONTINENCE;  I have been engaged by our local council to design pads (for both incontinence and menses), and to give a presentation to talk about how yoga would help in strengthening the pelvic floor etc.  I am working on it, but it would be made a whole lot more enjoyable if I knew that you were interested in it too.  Years ago I went around Australia with such a workshop.  Now, when more than 10 times as many adult pads for incontinence are sold than infant pads, just from a waste problem we should be paying attention.

Dear Yogis,

It feels like Christmas is upon us although there is still a little way to go.  Hope you are having a wonderful time.  I used disposables for our Christmas feast – it was a first and there was hardly any washing up – except for the glasses, you can’t really serve champagne in plastic can you?

Hope your Christmas is as lovely as ever.

Dear Yogis,

Don’t forget the yoga lunch here at the studio next Sunday at 12 noon+.  If you can’t come til later, then do, it’s a drop in.  Bring something lovely to share (on a plate).

I went to “600 Above” for snacks yesterday evening – they are open until 8pm on a Sunday.  It was fantastic.  A bit noisy in the main room but there are other rooms to choose.  We went there for a yoga lunch when they first opened – it was not terrific.  They hadn’t fixed the fridges which blasted chill into the room, they hadn’t fixed the menu,.. but everything is organised and welcoming now, and they have a great maitre.  Do check it out they are online.  You will be pleasantly surprised.  I haven’t checked out McQueens which they also own.  I will do after Christmas when they have settled in.  Over there they focus on Pizza and Panini.

My yoga classes are picking up again after a drab winter, and I have new massage/cranio-sacral therapy clients which I am enjoying.  My back isnt 100% so this style of massage suits me well.  You will be pleased to hear that my back is 100% on what it was – bones don’t hurry, so by the middle of the year with more yoga possible, I should be back on track.  It has been a big learning curve.

FOR YOUR DIARY.  There is a lot going on but don’t overlook the Kyneton Brass Band Christmas carols at the Anglican Church in Kyneton.  Sunday the 21st December at 7.30.  It is not a huge church so remember to sit in the back rows – unless your eardrums are a whole lot less sensitive than mine.  The band is LOUD.

TEACHER TRAINING MONTHLY CLASS.    Date to be decided.  I think we may do it online, because this is a special and more than the usual folk may want to be involved.   I will be working with students who have been teaching uninsured… you can bridge the gap, but I need you to step forward.

YOGA MONTHLY LUNCH: On 14th December at 12 noon  we will be having a CHRISTMAS/END OF YEAR lunch here at the Studio.  We did this last year and it was fantastic! Everyone brought something for the table – there was more than enough fabulous food for everyone.
