YOGA - Yin Yoga 2
Again, for Yin Yoga, you will need any of these props... bolsters, blocks, pillows or cushions. Yin Yoga focuses on stretching the deep connective tissues in our bodies (ligaments, tendons, and fascia), rather than the more superficial muscle tissue. You will hold these floor-based postures for...

Episode 2 - Contemplate 'Friendship'
In this episode Annemaree Rowley reflects on how valuable it is to create friendships. As she often states, friends are the greatest gifts of all and often quotes the wonderful depiction by essayist and writer, Anais Nin, "Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they...
-
MEDITATION - Hush
In this practice find an anchor...something to hold the mind's focus, such as sounds around you, the sound of your breathing, your heart-beat or perhaps the sensation of the air gently caressing your face. This practice is for those who prefer to practise with long moments of silence. It has no...

YOGA - Hatha Yoga 3

Episode 1 - Contemplate 'Acceptance'.
CONVERSATIONS - COOL, CALM & COLLECTED Our health is our wealth, that we know. Stillness of mind is imperative to retain our sanity. It takes a calm mind to be clear. It takes a clear mind to be able to look at life from all different angles and others' points of views. It takes an open heart to…

MEDITATION - Acceptance
Sometimes the universe deals us some truly painful cards and often a vulnerable hand. So we need to surrender, to learn to accept what is. There will be many times and many situations when we simply lose control and are confronted with what we cannot change and with what scares the living…

MEDITATION - Letting Go
We often think that we cannot escape the past and believe that the future is forever linked to it. And so if we don't escape our past, we carry it with us and often don't realize that by doing so, we are encumbered with the same burdens and carry on with the same thoughts, behaviours and habits...
-
MEDITATION - Kindness
We need to train our minds to think beautifully. To see the gentle, soft side of co-existence. Without each other, we cannot operate effectively. We cannot live harmoniously. We cannot be peaceful. And in the words of novelist Henry James: "Three things in human life are important: the first is…

MEDITATION - Gratitude
What is gratitude? It is the quality of being thankful; the willingness and eagerness to recognize the good things we have in life; to identify and to show appreciation for each blessing; and to return kindness whenever the opportunity arises. What are the gifts of gratitude? We become more…

YOGA - Nidra 1
Yoga Nidra is a powerful technique in which you learn to deeply relax but at the same time remain conscious and aware of the process. Therefore it is not sleep. May I suggest it is like a half-waking, half-sleeping state. Feeling calm and soothed but at the same time alert and refreshed....
-
MEDITATION - Courage
Whether you are feeling weak or courageous today, remember, that there is very little difference between the two states of being. Both have fear. It is said that the coward listens to his fears and becomes frozen by them and/or controlled by them. The courageous person puts them aside and pushes...
-
MEDITATION - Whispers
It is said that listening is our access to understanding. But it seems we are now so easily distracted in our day-to-day existence that we can no-longer hear 'the whispers'. The turbulent noise of the outside world has become deafening. Breath whispers, mind whispers, body whispers, heart…

MEDITATION - Sunset
Needing some deep, deep, rest? Do you worry and then reflect upon these worries just before you go to sleep? Do you then worry because you can't sleep? Vicious circle isn't it? If you are a 'worrier' you are at greater risk of not sleeping and not resting well. So it is important to focus on…

MEDITATION - Peace
I do love the words by Jon Kabat Zin, one of the great exponents of mindfulness, Imagine: "That what you knew and what you didn't know, That what had been and what was yet to come, And the way things are right now No longer held even the slightest hint of anxiety or discord? " These words…

MEDITATION - Thank you
We hurtle through life doing, planning, worrying, criticising, judging, and missing...... missing?, We often do not notice or relish in the beauty that abounds in our life, such as kind words from a friend, the hugs from our children, bird-song at sunrise, the breeze embalming our being, the…

MEDITATION - Listen
If we cannot feel then we can barely hear. If we cannot hear then we cannot be present and it is when we are present and tapping into the senses that our thoughts begin to diminish and we feel calm and rested. We can then make clear and succinct decisions. Be disciplined in reaching our innermost...

MEDITATION - Bodyscan
Welcome to this Yoga Nidra practice. A deep, deep relaxation process where we scan the body for any glitches that inhibit us from relaxing beautifully and we calm the mind and spirit through the flow of the breath and the guidance of my voice. Annemaree x

MEDITATION - Believe
Believing in yourself means to be fearless......fearless in your approach to everything you do. Believe in yourself to create the life you wish to have, the dreams you wish to manifest, to be the person you aspire to being and to journey through this world with a sense of wonder, adventure and…

MEDITATION - Slumber
There are many, many reasons why we do not sleep. Lifestyle, health complications, medication side effects, clinical disorders, fear of missing out, fear in general, anxiety, stress, partner's snoring, body tension......and so on and so on..... But let's reflect upon one of these main…
