If you don’t look after the vessel that is your beautiful body in this lifetime... who will? I loved sharing some potent and practical Ayurvedic wisdom with our amazing @blissology ytt students yesterday. It brings me so much joy to connect to what we experience as we navigate what life throws at us; and to offer strategies that help to offer you balance through a deeper understanding of who you truly are. This work is MAGIC! ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ #ayurveda #modernayurveda #blissologybali #yogue #modernayurveda #yogabali #blissedandblessed @_meredith__rose_ ✨

Do you know how beautiful you are? / I think not my dear... HAFIZ Yesterday in class @blissology had us stop and tap our foreheads w our finger tips - a metaphor for all the negative thoughts we beat ourselves with daily... do you do it? I know I do and it is so much work to let go of that negative self whirl. Yet when we finally release the negative self chatter we allow in that lightness that shines so bright. How? I think it’s easier when you have a mindful movement practice like yoga, when you sweat and when you create the intention to release and to shift. It’s the daily house cleaning we need for our own divine house, this body, this mind, this spirit that we inhabit over this lifetime... And we have to commit to it... if we want to be happy. Feeling this here in bali w the @blissology YTT here in canggu and sharing this and more on the yoga professional summit, last day to listen to so many incredible teachers via @katiebrauertransform ❤️❤️❤️ link in my bio xo #baliblissology2020 #blissarmy #selfcare #selflove #blissology #insiyayoga #yogaprofessionalsummit #breathe #hafiz #mysticalself #love #exhale #positivevibes #ytt #yogateachertraining #yogainbali #baliyoga #ilovebali #yogateacherlife Pics by @_meredith__rose_ ❤️

When your almost 9 year old is obsessed - and the word doesn’t even encapsulate the degree of fascination - w Harry Potter, you throw a wizard themed birthday party of course. He had the idea to make wizard hats for all his friends so this mama stayed up last night making them (he decorated) and this morning after soccer he painted wands for everyone. The final touch was a beautiful wizard themed cake by local bakers @ruthanddean which I think was almost too beautiful to eat!!! 5 boys and a girl ran through the escape room called the sorcerers lair, much « organic » :) popcorn was consumed, veggies thankfully also munched and some pizza. I am learning to keep things more simple but it still always feels like a lot :) mostly grateful that we have been here only a short while but this smiling little man is charting new friendships (and connecting and reconnecting me w some awesome local mamas @melissamichelephillips @jmjanamade @ilhamamanzee) and we are slowly starting to feel a bit more at home in this sweet city. Now, to pack for our travels to Asia trow; and his real birthday w dad @blissology in bali... #jetsetting9yearold #lifi #blissology #yogue #kidsbirthdays #momlife #consciousmama #viclife #victorialife #yogamom #breathe #harrypotterbirthday #diy #crafting #creativefam #nofilter #wellnessblogger #momstyle

Want a powerful tool to increase your relaxation response? This simple practice that comes from yoga and has been used in Buddhist meditation for centuries ,is a huge part of what we teach in our @blissology yoga trainings. It will decrease your cortisol levels, increase your ability to experience sustained focus, decrease anxiety; and most importantly make you feel more at ease within yourself. How to do this? Simply pay attention to your breathing and notice if you are breathing quickly or slowly. See if you can begin to lengthen and deepen your breath. And then use your hand to mimic the motion of your diaphragm moving as you breathe. On thé inhale, your hand will move down from the chest to the belly and on the exhale as the diaphragm relaxes the hand rises and we release air out. Focus on breathing generously. Breathe in a 3 dimensional way allowing the breath to access the back body especially towards the adrenals. Let the eyes soften and torso be long. For more on thé hows and whys come join us at our yoga mind body medicine course in Victoria BC this June. And add it in to your daily practice! Namaste from bali!!! Xo

Shrug off yesterday. Let it drip out of you. TODAY is here and it's here, now. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Today is ours to create... it is full of possibility and potential; and that bag of chips you scarfed down yesterday doesn't matter. That staying up too late doesn't matter. That unending to do list does not matter. ⁠⠀ What does matter, is this simple question: will you honor yourself enough to start afresh, eat something your body actually needs, get back on your mat, to relax your nervous system so you can then move forward, without the self-blaming thought chatter that stops you and holds you back...⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Will you do whatever it takes to get you into the mind-body space you want to be in... ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Will you LOVE yourself enough today?⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #selfcompassion #selfcare #yogalife #yogainspo #wellness #holisticlife #ayurveda #modernayurveda #dinacharya #wellnessinspo #yoga #changeyourhabits #love #loveyourself #bodymindhealth #today #health ⁠#valentines #loveyourself

It’s been a few years since I’ve been able to be this present and part of our @blissology yoga trainings!!! But, our little guy is now 9 which frees me up just a little bit more to share and learn and be immersed in our yoga training. And having been a student in this year’s graduation yoga classes I can tell you that yoga is alive, well and still potent medicine for our time. I trust our new teachers: their teaching, their goodness as humans and their desire to share it with the planet. @blissology we are lucky to do what we do. It is not an easy life but it is so so fulfilling:) Btw, applications are open for our epic tofino 100hr and 200hr ytt in May. Reach out to trainings@blissology.com for more info ❤️✨ #baliblissology #baliblissology2020 #insiyayoga #breathe #exhale #yogamama #yogateachertraining #iloveyoga #yogateacherlife #revolvedtriangle #vinyasa #blissology #yogue #globalyogis #travellingyogis #momyogi @_meredith__rose_ ✨

The BLISS list: our fav healthy + delish cafes in Canggu, Bali. It's been a while since I've written a blog post, but I am heading to Bali next week for what must be my fifteenth time and I got excited, not just for the yoga, or tropical ocean, or simple living, but also for the sublime, delicious and healthy food you find where we hang, teach yoga and surf. ✨✨✨✨✨ Here’s the blog: Eoin my global yoga teaching, surf-mad husband and I have been returning to Bali for the last thirteen years; and you might say that Bali is not unfamiliar to us. Yet, we are still surprised by the changes, development and increasing hipster-ness that continues to grow exponentially where we hang out in Canggu. I was describing Canggu or the "gu" to a friend the other night. What used to be - just over a decade ago - a sleepy fishing village with vast expanses of rice fields, Balinese homes, a few expat villas; quiet beaches with ripping surf, a temple where we once filmed a video for one of our yoga DVDs; where the only food you could find was aussi style surfer food: jaffels (aka gooey cheesy grilled toasties) and milkshakes at the local warnungs; local fish bbqs; and pizza at a place run by an Italian expat; transformed almost overnight into a global mecca of creative health food, chic boutiques, sophisticated spas, boutique hotels, sourdough bakeries, kombucha bars, celebrity tattoo artists; and yoga studios. ...
