NOTICE!!  ATTENTION…

We will be holding MINDFULNESS MEDITATION SESSIONS on Mondays and Fridays at 6.30pm for the rest of August and September, and we will review as we go along.  This will focus on our method of MEDITATION, CONCENTRATION and  RELAXATION.

I made this decision, and then decided to take my announcement to the frogs in the pond (they are usually attentive and ready to comment), and there, beside the pond are three crocus sativa in flower – saffron crocus.  I have been trying to grow these for about 10 years, and here they are…. and one, ready to harvest the saffron.  A very fruitful sign.

Don’t forget that our massage class starts this coming Tuesday (27th August) 7pm to 9pm.  This is a diploma class, and will encompass everything I have learned.  Only four hands-on evening classes plus the usual home study, then you will be on training wheels….

See you soon at teacher training classes, first Sunday in September.

 

Namaste.  Jahne

I have started a new Facebook page where I will bring everything THE YOGA OF HEMP to you.

Everything we do, we do for you – we share with you and  our www.yogabeautiful.com.au web site, and in ETSY (www.myyogabooks,etsy.com) and on our facebook page “YOGAFIRST” I’ll share the diet and lifestyle principles that have helped students, graduates and clients rebuild their physical and mental well-being. Whether it’s drinking your green juice, improving gut health through our hemp recipes, or reducing toxins in your food and home we have always shared everything we learn with you when we learn it, updating all the while.  If you want to make lasting changes, we have given you books, charts and courses.  What we have presented is not perfect, it is not the last word, however, this is a new field and we are all beginners.  Join us on the journey – you won’t regret it.  Learn and grow with us….

To begin with, you could grab a copy of  “JAHNES KANNABIS KITCHEN from the ETSY site.  This book is filled with hints, tips, and the information you may need to move forward on your HEMP journey with us,  and oh SO many delicious recipes!

If you are looking to create a meditation practice, you can begin with just three minutes.  Download the THREE MINUTE MEDITATION from www.myyogabooks.etsy.com  and I can tell you it will change your life.

Fitness? Flexibility? Fast?  Then you will just love our FIVE ELEMENT YOGA also on ETSY.  You can do this whole-body workout,  fast (or slow) in about 7 minutes.  It wakes the body, clears the mind, and kick-starts the endocrine system.  It will move you beautifully into a new day, a new life.

…and, If you enjoy inspirational card decks, we will shortly be releasing “VICTORIA’S LOVE NOTES”.   I called them that because I collaged images from the pages of the oldest editions of an American magazine called “VICTORIA”.  The photos are like no-one else’s, dreamy, emotional, reflective. Learn to love yourself first.  Start your day with an uplifting message and I bet you’ll be a lot happier by the time it ends.

AND DON’T FORGET TO COME TONITE TO OUR CBD/HEMP INFORMATION SESSION AT THE STUDIO.  YOGA COMES FIRST OF COURSE, AND TONITE  IT IS RESTORATIVE YOGA!

 

Have a great day – see you soon….  Jahne

 

 

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.

“The passions are the only advocates which always persuade.  The simplest man with passion will be more persuasive than the most eloquent without”.  – Descartes
