Dear Yogis, 

This morning (Sunday) I did an ION CLEANSE.  I felt that things were changing, and I wanted to get my body ready.  It was amazing.

The water at the end was cloudy with lots of toxins as you can well see, keeping in mind this was clean, clean water when I started,  resulting in this mess half an hour later.  It feels fantastic.   I do these cleanses when I have upped my yoga times, have been super busy,  had a protracted time of Bach Flower Therapy and want to get the refuse out of my system.  This time I also had to get the residue from an unfortunate work encounter out of my system too.  It works for me, and it might work for you – usually does with my clients.

 

A GOOD NEWS STORY……

 Don’t you just love this – I wish they could make this change in our supermarket.  I found the notice on QUORA.

It would put an end to the complaints I hear from people who are sick to death with the impersonal service at checkouts…. A SLOW LANE, for people who want to chat…  I would even love to work in a supermarket that did that, and especially on a slow checkout where i could chat with the clients – wouldn’t you?  It would be great fun.

Please SPEAK to the manager of a supermarket in your area, and ask them to bring in a SLOW LANE REVOLUTION.  

The supermarket is already a social outlet for many lonely people, and here is a way to make it especially valuable.

 

REMEMBER WHEN I TAUGHT YOU ABOUT TELOMERES IN CLASSES ABOUT THE CEREBROSPINAL FLUID?

The world is catching up with us.  A cause of ageing is the loss of telomeres, which are the protective caps on the ends of our chromosomes. Every time a cell divides, the telomeres become shorter. When the telomeres become too short, the cell can no longer divide and begins to die. This process is thought to contribute to the aging of our cells and tissues.

There are several ways in which we can slow down the aging process and maintain good health as we age. One way is by following a healthy diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. This can help to reduce the risk of age-related diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Exercise is important, but most important is MEDITATION. Adequate sleep is also a factor.

 

TODAY’S TAROT.

TODAY I CHOSE THE  THREE OF SWORDS – This card invites us to consider the beyond and its significance in our lives. It has a message for all of us…..If you have a Rider Waite deck, have a look at this card.  Although I am not interpreting it as being  the end, I am looking at it as the end of one part of my life and the beginning of another.

If the man in the image on the card is, in fact, deceased, then he is in the midst of the last rest. So, If you choose this card, what does this imply for you? What would you do if you knew you were about to die? Would you be willing to make amends with family members? Spend all of your time with the people you love? What’s keeping you from doing it now, rather than waiting until that fatal day? Many people on their deathbeds don’t wish they had worked more or spent more time seeking financial security; instead, they wish they had spent more time with the people they care about.

 

CLASS TIMES:   Monday Hatha 1pm, Wed. Restorative 1pm –   I am also thinking of a Saturday morning YOGA class, although I do have to accomodate a gallery obligation one morning a month – tricky but we can manage, maybe Saturday afternoon would be better? 

FREE ZOOM HERBAL WORKSHOP.  Mondays at 6.30 on zoom.

ZOOM – YOGA FOR DISABILITY – Please register your interest – Maybe a Thursday or Friday evening zoom would suit us all.  Let me know or I will make an executive decision.   The zoom will include the book.

YOGA LUNCH.  12 NOON ON FRIDAY 27TH JANUARY AT THE “FULL MOON SALOON” (Not “Lone Star”, not “Blue Moon”), restaurant next to the Victoria Hotel in Woodend.  It looks like a Western Saloon…..  I lunched there the other weekend and it was great.  A surprise.  Even if you can’t join us, please try it.  I have booked for  12 noon for the usual group, if you would like to join us and haven’t before, please contact me so we can add you to the table and make sure there is room for an extra chair with no squeeze.

 

SEE YOU ON THE MAT (SOMEWHERE)

Dear Yogis,

I have had a wonderful, surprising birthday “week”.  I think we are all done now.  We have gone through Christmas, New Year and my birthday (Valentine’s day is coming up although Coles is stocking hot cross buns!).  I planned to hide away, but thank you so much to those students and friends who determined there was another way,  and brought the party to me.  Now we can get back to what we do best (I am not too good at parties, but loved them this time), The Studio.

 

Our YOGA CLASSES ETC

BACH FLOWER REMEDIES.  I can determine these by pendulum, or you can come for a consult or on zoom.  I can post or you can collect the remedy.  I make all my remedies, on the basis that a plant grown in the UK, USA or China is totally different energetically to a plant that I have gathered and processed around our town.  No travel, individual, and much more powerful in its effect.  Please contact me and we will work together.  I have found Bach remedies to be much more effective than ANYTHING else in combatting the after effects of covid or (in my case) the covid vaccinations.

Our ZOOM HERBAL CLASSES started on the 9th January.  

PLEASE BOOK for any of the classes (or consults) to suit you.  The studio classes are  small classes, and just joining in may not be possible, some are full.

CLASS TIMES:   Monday Hatha 1pm and 2.15, Wed. Restorative 1pm –   I am also thinking of a Saturday morning YOGA class, although I do have to accomodate a gallery obligation one morning a month – tricky but we can manage, maybe Saturday afternoon would be better?.

Dear Yogis,

Missed you at Mt.Macedon Gallery Saturday morning and Sunday…..  It always feels like coming home as it was my little centre for 5 years… before I finally moved everything to where I am now – I get the feeling of a shift in the air once again.

Everyday I pick a tarot card.  TODAY THE CARD THAT CAME UP WAS “THE WORLD”.  It is not about doing slavishly what the card advises, but thinking about the image, and how to progress through the day in the most positive way that I can.  Being a very visual person, the card helps me.    The World is a clear indication of completion. We all want to be satisfied in many aspects of our life  and  The World card is reminding me (and you) that happiness is there at your fingertips – all you have to do is reach out and get it!

Another facet of the card  is its calmness which comes when everything fits together.  When you get the World card, it’s a great opportunity to reflect on your life and ask yourself a few key questions. What do you think would make you happy? Do you have a sense of accomplishment? What could give you a sense of accomplishment? What might you do to make your life more complete? Is there already completeness and goodness in your life that you can’t see or appreciate?

WHAT CHOOSING THIS CARD MEANT FOR ME (and maybe you) TODAY:   The World card has appeared today to indicate that we have come to the end of a particular cycle in life. This could be obvious but in some cases, these cycles can be quite subtle. In either case, we have learned what there is to learn from a pattern in your life and it is time for a new one to begin. Whether it’s psychological, emotional, spiritual, or physical, it looks like we are moving on to a new chapter. This can also suggest that there are greater forces at work in our life and it is time to allow the world to shape itself around us.  I still do the Tarot Readings.  Please let me know if you want one – zoom, studio or email.  BOOK VIA THE EMAIL. yogafirst2@bigpond.com

PHAGE THERAPY

You may not have heard the word, but if you have been coming here a LONG TIME, and have a good memory you may remember me talking about it years ago No one was ever interested.  I ceased talking about it but always think of it).  Phage is a way of producing remedies from a disease, rather like homeopathy, but in the case of Phage, a remedy is made for you from your condition or disease.  The closest we get in the West is when a person drinks their own urine.

Phage Therapy was practised in Georgia (Russia) for many years.  They had hospitals that operated entirely on this principle and it worked.  A sick person would come in and was isolated in their own room with their own nursing team.  A remedy would be designed from their condition and administered to them by spraying the air, by mouth or etc.

Using phages to treat bacterial infections (commonly termed phage therapy) dates back to the early 1900s, after their codiscovery by Frederick Twort and Felix d’Hérelle . D’Hérelle in particular used phage suspensions to treat infections such as dysentery, which at the time had no other consistently effective treatment.

Why is this important?  Well, today antibiotics are ceasing to work.  Our bugs are getting too clever.  Guess what scientists are exploring now?  You guessed it – PHAGE THERAPY!  Years ago America tried to buy the main hospital in Russia and all the “recipes”, but were refused on the basis that it was a therapy for everyone, and it was thought that America would make it into a money making enterprise. Pretty accurate assessment I think.  In early 2000’s it seems to have gone international, but it began in the 1900’s.   Google it – it is worth knowing about – there is a lot to learn.
