Dear Yogis,

Another holiday on the horizon.  Labour day weekend.  A notion that was revolutionary not so long back in time, and we still celebrate ‘EIGHT HOURS WORK, EIGHT HOURS PLAY, EIGHT HOURS SLEEP FOR EIGHT BOB(SHILLINGS) A DAY”.  I wonder how many people still have eight hours play and eight hours sleep per day, and how many only work eight hours.  Not me, but I am working on it!.

Instead of celebrating with a holiday, maybe we could celebrate by changing the way we live to give ourselves a greater balance between work, play, sleep and how much money we actually need to live the lives we think we should have.

ZOOM:  After a year or so of compulsory covid pause,   I am allergic to days off unless absolutely necessary – so classes as usual this Labour Day Weekend..

Friday 6.45 – our FREE pendulum/tarot class.  Beginners to advanced, or mildly curious welcome
Saturday 2pm – TAROT/ART CLASS.  Bring whatever project you would like to go on with, even making a pendulum or cards as we did before could be a NEW project.
Sunday 10am – our FABULOUS GITA STUDY.  If you are a teacher, you should be with us.
Monday 1pm – yoga studio class 1pm (full)   6.30 THE BREATH, FREE  on Zoom.  (We did breath last week.  This week “EAT” whilst still considering the breath). Next week MOVE and the week after LIVE.

FOR BREATH, and everything BREATH (and everything starts with BREATH)

KARMA

To understand how things work, I have been thinking about and researching “cause and effect” – KARMA.  Is it just applicable to what we humans do, or does it apply to everything?  Well, it turns out that mathematicians and physicists (and animators like my son), spend their lives working with Karma,  with the laws of cause and effect which govern everything that happens in the universe, from the growth of nautilus shells, to the populations of cities, to animation.  A Code for everything which can be worked out mathematically… but what causes things to fall in these magic ratios that occur all around us (“Pi” is just one of them)?  I am sure that these codes respond to the energy of what each of us do, or we,  by our energy for positive or negative action are moved by one of the principles.  Even Murder which seems random is governed by many things which can now with some accuracy be predicted mathematically, as can numbers of beans in a jar and so on right through the universe and every thing in it.  We think we have free will? My head is still spinning as I contemplate the vastness of something we simply call KARMA. Everything we do matters, and effects everything else.  We are so predictable because of all living things, we are the most selfish..

I am reminded of the CHAKRAS.  In our yoga texts it is said we are created in the navel chakra “like snowflakes on a twig”, which was all very romantic until I understood that even in the world of snowflakes there is a code that determines growth, behaviour, destruction, life, even death.  It is not random it is not chaotic.  Not every snowflake is the same, perfection even on the scale of emerging snowflakes can only happen at best one in a million times and even on this molecular scale ENVIRONMENT DETERMINES SHAPE.  

How has your environment determined your “shape”, and how can you work with nature to achieve the best shape you can be – what forces are at work in your life? Is it shame, scarcity, or is it JOY.   It is at this level and with these thoughts that you begin to understand the profound nature of the ancient writers of the yoga texts.

THE PENDULUM
To go from the sublime, to the mildly questionable (no, not ridiculous).  In sessions with  my pendulum, I have been introduced to my Guides (and am able to know them through their history as well as being a guide on the other side), I say hello to my past-self, and more recently Princess Di.   I promised a blog, and will get to this….if you are a pendulum user, for tips, for reports on my voyage join us on Fridays for our FREE pendulum/tarot study group, and/or  go to www.thebreath.online

 As “interesting” as that is, I am most pleased with the way that working with my pendulum has caused a change in the way I eat.  The “What-When” question.  This, added to the mini-bike under my desk has caused me to lose quite a lot of weight  (the covid mini-bulge) without really having to  think about it, and even more INCHES – they drop off first I have found.  Now I could do with a “skin shrink” just to tighten everything up!  It will happen. Patience.  My mother used to say “Patience is a virtue , find it where you can.  It is always in a woman and seldom in a man”.  

In all of this, no matter where you are in life even if you were a Princess…God won’t show you what is next if you are not grateful and working with what you have right now.  Breakthroughs start with a question, not an answer.  Belong to yourself FIRST – you can’t be loved if you can’t be seen.

 

MEET ME ON ZOOM.

NAMASTE – JAHNE

 

Dear Yogis’

ZOOMS COMING UP
Friday: 6.45 a free pendulum/tarot study group.
Saturday: 2pm Tarot/Art Group
Sunday: 10am our ever popular GITA STUDY GROUP.

 

“YOU ARE ENOUGH” – LIVING AN UNCOMPROMISED LIFE
SPECIAL SESSION SUNDAY 14TH MARCH 2 to 3PM: $55

A ZOOM PAST-LIFE SESSION WITH ME .

You all know that I have been doing past life sessions for many years, and you also know I was taught by a Master, the Late Dolores Cannon.  In the past 30 or so years, I have taken many, many people way back into their pasts lives or their future lives where we have uncovered their limiting beliefs and experiences.

Now, I am offering you all the possibility of going back into moments in this life that limit you right now, today.  Beliefs you have taken on in this life, limits that are not yours but have been imposed by others.  Parents, grand-parents, friends, situations.

In the relatively short time we will spend together, I know POWERFUL HEALINGS will occur.  Blockages will be removed – I know this because it happened to me when Dolores did similar sessions with me..  You may accept for the first time that what you have been led to believe about yourself IS NOT YOU, and is not true!  It was a name tag that was attached to you somewhere in your childhood which we can (once and for all) remove and replace.  Whatever you believe about you that is holding you back IS NOT YOU.

 “YOU ARE ENOUGH”. Normally to do a past-life session with me takes more than 2 hours, and of course, as a one-on-one, a 2 hour session costs about $350.

I am offering this group 1 hour zoom session with me for $55.
As you will discover – it is transformational.

 

If you want to join me, go to the home page of this web site…. www.yogabeautiful.com.au and click on PAY VIA PAYPAL.  You don’t need an account, paypal accepts debit and credit cards.  When I see your payment of $55,  I will log you into the session and will send an ID the day before.  If you have any questions you can email me at yogafirst2@bigpond.com

This is going to be an adventure.  I have done lots of classes, tarot sessions, and pendulum sessions since Covid began (I was the girl who said she never would go near zoom), but this will be a first for me, although most of my tarot/pendulum sessions are about removing blockages to your success.  I hope to see you there.

PLEASE JOIN ME….ON THE ZOOM

NAMASTE.  JAHNE

Dear Yogis,

Tonite is the first nite of the BREATH CLASS.  It may not be what you think.  Yes,  we will learn how to breathe, but we will also learn how to use this breath to enhance our lives, our creativity and our thinking. The breath isn’t just “something” – it is the beginning of EVERYTHING! 

FREE BREATH CLASS: Mondays at 6.30pm

THE SELFIE ARTIST IN US ALL

Tony Robbins coined the phrase: “If you stay in your head you’re dead”.  It is something I think about – OFTEN.

When I received my new iPhone courtesy of a student (a million thanks), I had been unwilling to change to iPhone and couldn’t see the value.  On handing the phone to me the student told me how fabulous it was, told me all the things that could be done, how “connected” I would be, how perfect the photos were, and how you could play with and manipulate images… After that PR rap I asked her WHY,  if the phone was so good, and wasn’t in any way not responding, and in perfect condition inside and out, why was she getting a newer version – which was almost double the price! So much for simplicity.

Turns out the one I had been given only held 5,000 photos, after that it got a bit difficult!  Five thousand photos in a couple of years!! Only Annie Lebowitz the Society Photographer,  takes more one would think.  I reminded the student that the phone had a DELETE button, and taking hundreds of photos of every little thing, and selfies (or multiples of any photos) you may never use is hardly a reason to swap phones.  Where is simplicity in all of this? I have only taken about 10 selfies in my life and even these are surplus to requirements – but then I am older, and hardly a judge.  But it did cause me to think..

We call a picture we take of ourselves a “selfie”, but it doesn’t capture the self at all.  It only looks at externals and doesn’t show what is going on inside at the time the flash goes off. It doesn’t show the viewer your soul – your mind – your feelings – your longing.  It is all about what is floating on the surface of the real you.

Have you noticed as you look back at your 5,000 photos,  that they tend to exaggerate the amount of fun you seem to be having.  Trips that could have been very “ordinary” can be made to look fabulous in a properly shot selfie.  It doesn’t however change the reality for us.  Sometimes it can seem to others (thanks to your selfies) that your life is one big party.  It can also seem that you are more glamorous, fun loving or attractive in a popular way, than you actually are.  They are often not honest representations of who you are, or what is happening.  It is often the “Kardasian” version.

Selfies have a way of turning our lives into something more than they are.  You may be standing in front of a jaw dropping view, but all the viewer sees is your artificial smile.  Instead of focussing on what really matters, what is really important, here you are trying to look like you are having fun, in front of this, and in front of that!

In life,  if we are taking “selfies” all the time, we could be missing out on the good bits (or the GOD BITS).  Missing out on the blessings that have been right in front of us whilst we were looking at ourselves.  I am sure that you have learned in your teacher training, and working with people, that most blessings can only be reached by digging below the surface.  We have to cut through the distractions to get to the essence.  If only you could take a picture of yourself and capture the nature of your soul.  The soul is always calling but few of us are listening.

MAYBE OVER THE TIME IN OUR CLASS CALLED “THE BREATH”,  WE CAN GET CLOSER TO OUR SOULS (NO SELFIES REQUIRED). Until you do, you will never know who you are, or your true calling.

NAMASTE.  JAHNE
