🧘‍♀️Why did you first step on your yoga mat?
Yoga was “prescribed” to me by my chiropractor back in back in 1986 when I was recovering from knee surgery
I’ve never looked back
Initially it helped me move physically towards comfort, in creating a stronger, more aligned body, less prone to discomfort in my quite mobile joints
The energetic, mental and emotional benefits of stepping on my mat are what have brought me back time and time again.
Yoga has been and continues to be a practice that helps me move away from stress and anxiety and towards calm
A practice that helps me to accept the challenges and constant changes that life offers up
A practice that fosters connection - not only has is given me a sense of belonging and connection to community, but also continues to help me connect to MYSELF
A practice that has enabled me to share something I love and believe in with others
I’m so very G R A T E F U L for that “prescription” to do yoga all those years ago
I’d love to hear about what first brought you to the mat and why you keep stepping on the mat time and time again

🌸🌿Yin is an introspective practice that offers a chance to turn inward and nurture the calm, quiet centre that is innate in all of us.
It is a practice in stillness, patience, and non-reactivity.
Through yin yoga we become adept at self-care.
We become better listeners with practice tuning in; we become wiser as we get to know ourselves from the inside out; and we become more curious about the world through the exploration of our own inner worlds

✨✨ Practice being here, that will still the mind✨
It’s easy to become overwhelmed by the busyness of daily life, to get stuck in our to-do lists
Taking the time to press pause and breathe helps us to feel more settled, calm and grounded
This week at Yoga Garage we will use our yin and yang practices to help eliminate distractions and tune into the present moment and what our body really needs

🌿 TREASURE FOUND 🌿
Some of the most precious things can be found in the everyday moments.
Small moments often hold the deepest joy

My long weekend reminded me of just that!
The weather was beautiful
Each morning Bobby and I stood on the sand and watched the sun rise over the ocean.
We walked slowly, enjoying the play of light on the water, fossicking on the beach for sea glass, bones and other treasures
I spent afternoons reading on my daybed outside, Bobby warming my feet and listening to the soft ocean sounds and birds singing

It all felt so special to me

Then I reminded myself that every moment is special.
It’s also special when I take time for my nourishing morning routines like a quiet cuppa before the house wakes up and my morning practice

Each and every moment of our lives is special.

Each present moment is special because it’s the only moment we’re ever truly alive, the only moment we ever truly live.

Our dreams for the future are just ideas, images, thoughts we have in our heads; our memories are just hazy, fuzzy images of something we once experienced

We can only ever truly live in the present moment.

What is a small moment from today that made you smile and warmed your heart ?

Classes this week will be held in Nunyara from Tuesday evening. I hope to be back in our usual YG home for Saturday morning classes - stay tuned for confirmation on this!

Have a beautiful week my friends
With joy, Karen

🌿 Dharana is the ability to direct the mind, to hold it in a single line of focus, uninterrupted.
🌿 We can practice being mindful in everything we do, not just the time we spend on our yoga mats.
🌿 Immerse yourself in the present moment whilst performing every day tasks e.g. walking the dog, washing the dishes, listening to your friend or partner. 🌿 Too often our minds are racing ahead to the future or stuck in the past.
🌿 Enjoy this moment to the fullest.
🌿 Be present.

THIS WEEK on the mat we will explore mindfulness together X

PLEASE NOTE SCHEDULE BELOW
Work on resurfacing our studio hallway and bathroom floors will start this Saturday morning (29th August) and run through until the following Friday (4th September). As such there will be NO classes THIS coming SATURDAY morning or NEXT Tuesday morning.
Classes next week will be held in Nunyara from Tuesday evening. I will send this info out next week as well to remind us all ###

💥Is your FEAR of FARTING preventing you from trying yoga?

We can probably relate at least to the fact that one barrier or another stopped us from getting to a yoga class at … some point….maybe you haven’t stepped on the mat yet….below we explore some common obstacles on our path to yoga bliss.

FEAR of FARTING & other  obstacles....
* Fear of Farting: BELIEVE IT! This is a common fear - known as “F.O.F.” You know - it doesn’t really happen all that often in class, and if you happen to pop off - don’t stress about it! It’s natural, we all do it - hey, a regular yoga practice will ease any bloating and aide digestion thereby helping to alleviate excessive wind.
* Fear of Judgement: Too stiff/tight, old/young. We can tend to worry about what we’re not rather than embracing who we are right now. Yoga helps us overcome our negative internal voice and accept who we are right now.
* No Time: How many times have you said “ I’d love to come to yoga, but I’m just too busy”? True, we do lead busy lives! But have you considered that taking an hour out of your day to step on the mat will help increase your focus, calm your mind, help you sleep, boost your immune system - just to name a few benefits. In fact you might even feel like you have MORE time in your day!
* Fear of not fitting in or keeping up: Most yoga teachers are kind & understanding, encouraging their students to practice in a non forceful way. This creates an accepting and safe environment where you will be able to practice to your level - regardless of experience. Hey - we’re not synchronised swimmers! It’s OK if you go a bit slower or even a bit faster if that’s what you need to do. If you turn up to a class that has a drill sergeant style yoga teacher and it doesn’t suit you - DON’T GO BACK! But don’t give up on yoga - there’s a teacher out there for everyone
* Don’t want to get locked in: Maybe you’re concerned that you’ll have to commit to a term or annual fee? Many Yoga studios offer casual classes.

We may have only touched on some of the fears that prevent us from stepping on the mat. What are your fears? I’d love to hear from you. Send me a message 🙏

Reclaiming C A L M

We live in a fast paced world full of sights, sounds and distractions. SO much information coming at us from every direction can leave us feeling anxious and overstimulated!

How can we reclaim the calm centre that is within each of us?

Mindful practices such as yoga and meditation, walking or sitting in nature, switching off our phones, tv’s, computers and having a technology break is important too!

This week Karen Gunter we will focus on slowing down the busyness, moving through practices to reclaim our calm.

Moving meditations to help you land in the here and now

💓what brings you joy?

💓 Feeding people is definitely my love language! I get great pleasure from cooking - every part of the process in fact!
🍊🍋From the selection of fresh and delicious local ingredients, to dreaming up what to cook, being in my kitchen chopping, mixing, baking, right through to the sharing of food with my family, friends, neighbours, yoga community…….and of course eating is a great joy for me too!!

🌱This week I came across a recipe for chia seed tiramisu. It was DELICOUS (see recipe below)

☕️Tiramisu is one of our family favourites (especially for my dad Giulio). Give this one a go - super easy!!

🧘‍♀️Our yoga classes will continue to be across both our usual studio and Nunyara this week - see the below schedule for class locations
Looking forward to sharing the joy of yoga with you soon x
With joy, Karen 🌸🌿

Tiramisu chia pudding (chia-misu)
Ingredients (per serve)
• 30g chia seeds
• 180g Greek yoghurt
• 20g maple syrup
• 1 shot expresso coffee
• 80g Greek yoghurt (for topping)
• 5g cocoa powder (sweetened)

Method:
1. In a medium size bowl combine the chia seeds, yoghurt, espresso and maple syrup. Stir or whisk through until evenly distributed (will start to thicken up in a couple of minutes - is quite loose to start with).
2. Once slightly thickened you can transfer to small bowls or glasses and pop into the fridge for a couple of hours or overnight. This allows the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and thicken into a pudding like consistency.
3. Before serving, top with the additional yogurt and sprinkle with cocoa powder.

Makes a delicious desert - or especially decadent breakfast - with the added bonus of chia seed and yoghurt goodness!!
