Soul Yoga with Grace

And that's a wrap for another year!

Thank you for your commitment this year to my classes. It has been a great delight to see all your smiling faces rain, hail or shine!

In March this year a terrible conflict in the Ukraine broke out. I made a commitment that Sunday SYWG class fees would be donated to two charities - Médecins Sans Frontières / MSF and the Australian Red Cross Ukraine Appeal.

An amazing $800 has been raised!!

Thank you for each and one of you contributing to this possibility.

SYWG Zoom class resumes on Sunday 8th January 2023 8:30am.
Log into Class Fit https://app.classfit.com/ and search "Soul Yoga with Grace" to sign up for classes.

Have a safe and joyful festive season.

🌬 BREATHE AND SMILE 😊

A beautiful poem of , shared by Meditation Australia . Just reading it brings bliss and relaxation!

Have a wonderful day ❤️

Breathing in, I see myself as a flower.
I am the freshness
of a dewdrop.
Breathing out,
my eyes have become flowers.
Please look at me.
I am looking
with the eyes of love.

Breathing in, I am a mountain,
imperturbable,
still,
alive, vigorous.
Breathing out,
I feel solid.
The waves of emotion
can never carry me away.

Breathing in,
I am still water.
I reflect the sky
faithfully. Look, I have a full moon
within my heart,
the refreshing moon of the bodhisattva.
Breathing out, I offer the perfect reflection
of my mirror-mind.

Breathing in,
I have become space
without boundaries.
I have no plans left.
I have no luggage.
Breathing out, I am the moon
that is sailing through the sky of utmost emptiness.
I am freedom.

From Call Me by my True Names: The Collected Poems of Thich Nhat Hanh.

❤️ One of the most inspiring, wise teachers of Buddhism has passed. While I am not Buddhist I am forever thankful for how he has enriched my life and many others. His words and philosophy have often inspired my yoga and meditation teaching and my own growth. May the spirit of his incredible teachings live on ❤️

The International Plum Village Community of Engaged Buddhism announces that our beloved teacher Thich Nhat Hanh has passed away peacefully at Từ Hiếu Temple in Huế, Vietnam, at 00:00hrs on 22nd January, 2022, at the age of 95. We invite our global spiritual family to take a few moments to be still, to come back to our mindful breathing, as we together hold Thay in our hearts in peace and loving gratitude for all he has offered the world.
More official news will be coming shortly.

Worrying about the future? Regretting past events?

Much of our time is spent ruminating about past and future events that are done or may not even happen.

How much of the time are you present? Pause now and notice your breath.

That is all that exists. Your breath is your anchor to the present. What has passed and what is coming are not part of living now.

Yoga and meditation practices help train your mind to be present. By being present you can let go of unnecessary stress, worries and tension that hinder you from being the best version of you.

My yoga and meditation classes are open to beginners and the experienced. Come and try a class to find out more!
