Dear Yogis,

What an interesting week and weekend, so full of learnings for me, and has set the tone for the rest of the holiday period.  I have been given a number of commissions which I will focus on, and enough fabulous fabric to contemplate making denim bags and GORGEOUS gardeners aprons.  Then there is the CertIV of course I am working on.   So if you want to find me, home is where I will be.  Like you there is enough gardening (and dusting indoors) for three lifetimes, but the garden will always be there… it is about priorities.

I remember my teacher Margrit and my dear friend (and teacher) Annie.  Neither of them ever said they were too busy for a visit and I never said it to them.  I knew they would not always be there and every minute was precious. What is important? It is not the weeding, or the dusting, or mowing the lawn – it is people.  Read Winnie the Pooh – I am surrounded by Bears and Winnie comes to mind.

I have over the years tried to educate my group on the importance of the Sangha, the yoga community, and sad to say I think I have not succeeded at all in this. If only five will come to a zoom class, even if it is free, then I don’t know why I should imagine they will come to the studio.

Times have changed.  I am so pleased to have experienced the Sangha of the past, and I thank all the students who month after month came to the studio to complete their trainings.  I have such good memories of our times here together.  For today, I will change, focus, and grow – the Disability Community wants and needs me and that is where my focus will be – it is time.  

So this mornings message is this –  get the studio teachings and classes whilst you can.

Dear Yogis,

Thank you to those who came to the lunch yesterday.  It was most enjoyable even though we were all “on the run” so to speak (it is pre-christmas and everyone is busy).  It was the last for the year and we won’t be having another until the end of January.

Don’t forget that I have an OPEN STUDIO “BEAR DAY” on THIS Sunday from 2.30 to 4.30.  I have lots and lots of bears AND DOLLS I HAVE MADE.  Every bear sold makes it easier for me to buy, renovate and donate more bears, so please come along.  Christmas is coming and my bears are beautiful.  Everyone needs a bear, especially adults who have never had one.  I never did, and that is probably why I surround myself with them at this time of my life.

This Sunday after 2.30 sometime to coincide with the open studio,  there will be a small garden walk to look at the herbs that are growing here.  If you want to join in, bring suitable shoes! It’s muddy.

STUDIO YOGA CLASS TIMES (yogabeautiful.com.au)
CHRISTMAS YOGA.  Closing the week of the 12th December to 9th January.  The weeks between 9th Jan to the beginning of first term.  $50.  You won’t be able to come to each class because of family things, so $50 for that period.  

The FIRST TERM FOR 2023 Starts on the  31st Jan (according to my reckoning) to 8th April $220 for that term.  You can pay $270 for the LONG TERM  –  January to April if that suits you better.

WEEKEND ART CLASS (CHANGE TO SATURDAY, NOT SUNDAY…).  2.30 TO 4.30 ($85 for the four or $25 each).  Starting up again in the new year.

HERBAL DISCOVERY CLASS – I will be holding these because the herbs are flourishing and fabulous and I want you all to know them, and know how to use them.  You can add to food, make your own pharmacy, and save money – who doesn’t want this?  Please respond.   No group call out.  I need you to respond if you are interested – if not, I will spend the time in the garden myself, just me and the garden spirits (and the bears).

This Sunday after 2.30 sometime,  there will be a small garden walk to look at the herbs that are growing here.  If you want to join in, bring suitable shoes! It’s muddy.

Dear Yogis,

A busy, busy week.  Everyone is flat out, including me.

OUR YOGA LUNCHEON THIS THURSDAY AT THE VICTORIA HOTEL IN  WOODEND, 12 noon, all welcome. ..  Only a few get along to this, and I have from time to time felt like cancelling them as they do take time to organise and keep on shepherding the participants/guests.  But those who do come get a lot from it, and for myself, it is the only day in the month I have a purely social time with the girls who come to yoga – it is a lovely time, and i look forward to it.

BEAR STUDIO OPEN DAY:  If you want to see my bears and dolls and anything in my studio – especially with Christmas coming up – please pop in on Sunday between 2.30 and 4.30 (37 Morris Road, Woodend).  I have lots.  Maybe you have a service club you support that may like a bundle of bears for under their Christmas Tree? Or, Maybe you have dolls or bears to be fixed you could bring them in to speak with me about the process, or maybe you would like to buy one of my old bears – my newest little family just waiting for adoption is on the right… I have many, many more! Starting at $5 and upwards. The money made goes towards buying and collecting more bears to donate for Christmas tree giving,  and give away to people in need.
