Get this quick fix Yoga Fit workout. Plus Yoga Health Benefits.

Hi there,

​How are you? So it's already been 1 month of lock down. After arriving back from New Zealand to Sydney I completed my 2 week self isolation, just before they bought the hotel lock downs in, thank you god.

This time forced relaxation at home provided me with the space and time to take my Yoga Business back online but this time LIVE. I have had an online  Yoga Business and have been  helping women from all over Australia and New Zealand and in Bali for the past ten years for weight loss coaching, Yoga and the 10 week MBT program where online yoga workouts are included. But nothing like this, live classes daily. 

I have loved teaching yoga over the years and have has my own yoga practice for over 20 years, plus coaching women  1-1 and in large group classes, but not live session like I am doing today.

I am absolutely  loving it more and more as I fine tune the classes and settle into this new structure and way of life. What I am valuing is the practice and the structure it is adding to my and my members days. I have to be grateful for COVID-19 for helping me return back to regular Yoga Teaching. I feel truly grateful around such an uncertain time, right now. My heart goes out to those losing jobs and being faced with challenges around family, schools, financial worries and caring for their elderly people. Everything we are facing comes with challenges, but one thing I know, Yoga can help you cope. It has been my coping mechnsism for Life. 

​For me, beginning the day with Yoga is gold, it helps wake you up, open the joints and I believe get your creative energy flowing, helping you to have a productive day ahead. I also value the Yin relaxation class at the end of each class.

This time will pass, with patience and positivity we can get through this together, however I couldn't think of a better time to embrace and reboot or learn Yoga from home. 


Even though some of my Yoga Classes filmed from over 10 years ago, these videos are still current today, because, Yoga never dates. 


Yoga is an ancient practice and our bodies can seek different styles at different times of our lives.


While I am ageing, I am embracing more and more relaxing Yoga,  meditation and Yin style Yoga, however I do notice in my own body it does need the stronger postures to keep tone, strength, core and fitness.  


The workout  below provides a shorter and stronger  Yogafit workout. It runs for 20 mins.




I wanted to share with you more health benefits of Yoga.

• Helps you sleep deeper
• Boosts your immune system functionality
• Gives your lungs room to breathe - Yogis tend to take fewer breaths of greater volume, which is both calming and more efficient.

• Prevents IBS and other digestive problems
• Ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation—all of these can be exacerbated by stress. So if you stress less, you'll suffer less. 
• Increases your self-esteem

• Helps you to increase your selfcare
• Supports your connective tissue

I want you to think about your daily routines today and how you can factor in this time for you on a day to day basis. 


EG If you are finding you need you nature walks, and running out of time to fit in your yoga, how can you fit your Walk in first to warm up your body, build fitness and cardio then finish with Yoga.


Another few tips for your home practice.

• Practice on an empty stomach

 

• Drink plenty of water or lemon water prior and after.

 

• Commit to Yin Practice at night to help you sleep and unwind. 

 

• Feeling your back and muscles is normal, you haven't been stretching and now you are, it is normal to feel soreness. Try Magnesium
