Yoga with Ruth

I had company for my practice outside this morning.

REGULAR WEEKLY GENTLE YOGA continues each Wednesday at 5.45pm. Practicing outside in nature has been a real treat this summer and I hope to be able to continue doing so for a few more weeks. If you haven’t tried it yet, you can book in the normal way, link below and I’ll send you details of exactly where on the greensward in Goring we meet.

What a joy it was to teach this class today leading up to the eclipse. We focussed on ‘Transformation’ and ended with a meditation using Ha (sun), Tha (moon) and Prithvi (earth), as they came into alignment, to explore any transformations we may be seeking in our lives. Beautiful energy with beautiful students.

On Wednesday this week (12th) we have a special opportunity to practice as the sun is (nearly) covered by the moon. Although it is low tide, there is the opportunity to move to the beach after our practice to experience the full extent of the eclipse.

Last week’s theme was ‘Expansion’ - of body, mind and spirit. We ended our practice with this poem:

Expand your body
As you stretch and breath
Feel yourself open
Feel yourself release

Expand your mind
As you watch it flow
Observing not judging
Just letting it go

Expand your spirit
With an internal gaze
Knowing your essence
Resides there within

Expand your life
Taking everything in
Embracing it all
To love life and live

Wednesday’s yoga (5th August) at 5.45pm will be on the green, the weather is still lovely and we will have some shade. Book as normal and I’ll send you the exact location. Option to swim afterwards.

Yesterday we focussed our practice around the Buck Full Moon, including poses for release and concluding with a meditation moving us to renewal; just like the Buck shedding his antlers to produce a new stronger set. Thank you for joining me.
