How do you like the new logo?  In designing it this way I hope to imply that HEMP is a lifestyle issue which links with yoga.  (It is not MARIJUANA and you won’t get high – I thought I would re-iterate that).  Hemp is a highly nutritious food supplement with a complete complement of Omegas and Protein.  You cannot get high from hemp.. and it can help rebuild your body at every level by building the endocannabinoid system.    To learn more and get some recipes.  Please go to www.myyogabooks.etsy.com and download GET HEALTHY WITH HEMP.   

IDEAS FROM MY DESK:  It occurred to me that the only place where “luck” comes before “work” is in the dictionary, and moving with this new idea takes work.  Introducing any new idea takes work.  I love the history of hemp, and am spending a lot of time each day to learn how it can help us to improve our lifestyles on every level.  As a business I have always operated from an entirely different perspective than most companies, yoga or otherwise.  I have always responded to need rather than creating them.

To me, the desire to have control over my own life, regardless of the politics operating in my community or country I see as very much part of the human spirit in all of us.  What I realised over time that being a yoga teacher and doing all it implied,  opened the doors to my heart.  I have always tried to inspire you all, to show you that working life can be a pleasure instead of a dreaded thing, exciting.   I do this mostly by education.  By encouraging you all to stretch your abilities and certainly to challenge your imaginations.  I am very interested in minds.

I think that a few fundamental beliefs have empowered me..

  1. That you have to have fun at your “job” your yoga at whatever level you are comfortable with
  2. That if your work is yoga, that is where you should put your love
  3. That where possible you have to go in the opposite direction to everyone else – do it differently

Add to this that I have an holistic view of my business.  I do not focus on profit (although we all have to live), I try to be a force for good, and work for the welfare of my students, for my community, and ultimately for the future of the planet.  Sure I make mistakes, we all do, but I keep going in the direction of my dreams.  I am making every effort and using most of my time to educate people and help them reach their full potential.  It is not enough to make a financial profit – we must also make a spiritual profit.

Have a great weekend.  It is cold here – snowing up the Mount, and looks like snow here.

Namaste.  JAHNE

 

 

 

 

I have nearly completed part one of the YOGA OF HEMP Booklet.  It will be loaded in the next day or so.

I also completed a youtube video on hemp (and a video on Passive Income!)  Watch them. Google “Jahne Hope-Williams YouTube and subscribe”

Since I began taking hemp, I have become passionately fond of unflavoured hemp protein powder.  It is protein and omega packed, and I am feeling great – as are students giving me feedback…
But you asked about me…  what do I eat.  
Before breakfast (because winter is here) a tonic for my immune system I make with herbs, chilli  and vitamin c.
Breakfast: A savoury dip made of 1 tablespoon or so (or more) of the best hemp oil, 1 heaped teaspoon of hemp seeds, 1 crushed clove of garlic and a slurp of good balsamic vinegar, all eaten by dipping about 1 slice of full grain bread cut into pieces.  I usually lick up anything left.  I have this with  brewed cocoa nibs (like coffee in a french press).
Lunch in two parts:  1.  A thick green aromatic dip of my garden herbs, hemp seeds, hemp oil, garlic, chilli, hemp powder all blended.  Dipping bread – home made pitta cut and backed into small biscuit size pieces.
Mid afternoon:  2.  1 heaping tablespoon of muesli with added nuts and dried fruits, hemp powder – all drowned in orange juice (or beetroot juice) and sesame milk mix.
Dinner:  Steamed vegetables, plus dessert – a home made fruit icy pole – (and a glass of wine or champagne)
Before bed:  a cube of home-made hemp gingerbread and a cup of hot milk tea (or decaf milk coffee)
I drink lots of water about a litre and a half a day, plus tea, coffee.
Thats about it.  It makes me feel good, my poop is beautiful, my skin is plumped and great, I have heaps of energy when I need it, and am deeply calm.
Hope you get some ideas.  You can see that Hemp is at the heart of how I eat.  It has made a great difference.  It is the deep calm, and a feeling of being really healthy and ‘all is well”.
