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.

Good morning Yogis,

Yoga luncheon this coming Thursday, 12noon at the Victoria in Woodend.  The last one for the year.  I hope those of you who have been putting it off all year can join us.

“A Universal theology is impossible… but a universal EXPERIENCE is not only possible, but necessary”.  …from a “Course in Miracles”.

Over the last few months, the number of distressed people coming to yoga/healing has increased.  Anxiety is in the air and the sensitive pick it up, and personalise it.  No matter what difficulties we face as a nation and/or individuals from an economic, emotional or material standpoint, there has been no better time than NOW to join with SOURCE – no matter your view or name for this fundamental energy.

We encourage everyone to accelerate their spiritual practices and work hard to achieve a personal (and global) healing.  This is not about coming into agreement with anxiety (commonly called Sympathy, often mistaken for empathy), but moving towards a shared experience of Source.  

We all make mistakes, take inappropriate action and move in the wrong direction at some time.  Correction is up to us.  Realise your mistake, realign to your true nature and your true course.  Correction or healing cannot take place until you realise and fully understand what the illusion of sickness was for.  THE REASON FOR THE SEEMINGLY WRONG TURN.

Turn back, begin again – even if you must begin at the very beginning.  Above all else be thankful.  Gratitude is the release from both guilt and sickness. Remember that your first step may be the one leading to us.  I am available (around consultations and classes) at a time to suit us both for PPT (Reiki/energy healing), Bach Flower Remedies and yoga.  All by appointment.  Please, dip your toe into this energy.

I will see you on the mat.

NAMASTE.  JAHNE

 

Dear Yogis,

With snow on Mt.Macedon, rain, rain, rain here and no sunlight, we play the “what if” game.  What if the electricity goes out, what if the water gets higher, what if it snows again, what if, what if, what if.  For myself I am very pleased that I have my little wood stove.  It is a small thing, but it does make me a little bit independent in a very simple way. What about you?

Don’t forget that we have our last YOGA LUNCH this coming Thursday at 12 noon.  You are most welcome to join us at The Victoria Hotel in Woodend.  If you have not been before, please let me know that you will be coming.  We have been holding these lunches monthly for a very long time.  We started when there was a restaurant in Tylden, and we have kept the practice up in spite a few lapses.  It is a lovely time.  If you come late, or leave early it doesn’t matter, even if you just drop in to say Hi and have a coffee.  It is a lovely social get-together.  It is not about me – it is about you.

THE WORST MAY BE OVER, but we are still faced with covid (new strains) plus colds and flu.  Don’t forget all the natural tips I have been giving you.  The Lemon, grapefruit, orange cure/zinc/olive leaf extract.  Everything there except the zinc you can get from the garden.  If you want some help, please email me and we will chat.  Mostly we are immunised, but that doesn’t help us with the flu and we need annual boosters, and i guess that is what it will be like with covid at least for a while.  However, there is lots you can do for yourself.  I have stockpiled the olive leaf extract (so much better than the Coles variety), and have the orange mix always cooking away.  You can too.  Email me: yogafirst2@bigpond.com

 

BEARS FOR CHRISTMAS
If you or your group need bears to put under the Christmas tree,  bears for refugees, those in hospital, or whomever, please let me know.  I do plan to give  away as many as I can.  They are all washed, renovated, cleaned, just waiting for a tree to sit under and a child (or adult)  to love.

No charge – you can have a BUNDLE OF BEARS. Donations welcome of course which make it easier for me to get more…
