Welcome, spring & finding Clarity

Spring is just around the corner…. That’s what I would love to believe. On Sunday, we had to change the clock to summer time and we “sprung” forward, so it’s going to be brighter during the day. As soon as the weather stays consistent ant warm, I can’t wait to enjoy some yoga flow outdoors. Feeling the grass on my bare feet, breathing in fresh air right there outside. I want to say THANK YOU to all my supportive yogis who joined me for the March lessons. I had 2 lessons in March, and they were both again very international and “happy”.

March upcoming lessons

Feeling happy for Spring? 2021 is now already into its 3rd month…March! So let’s roll your mat out and get mindful. It’s getting sunny outside and I think it’s good to think positive and start to feel happy for the warm days coming around the corner.

Roll out your yoga mat – 20 min. flow is ready!

Roll out your yoga mat – quick happy flow! I’ve had some videos already filmed but it took me a while to upload them — and get them ready for you guys! I know this past week has felt like SPRING and the weather has been AMAZING. I think it’s about time I do a yoga session outside or film a yoga flow outside. (I think I should do this before the weather goes back to winter-like-days again) Here’s the link for ya, enjoy and give it a try!

:: February upcoming lessons ::

Who’s ready for some more yoga? I hope you are all enjoying some wintery days — and if you’re in Japan, enjoying your spring-like weather. I heard that in Japan it’s getting warmer and it almost felt like spring! Here in our village, it was minus degrees for the last few days (let’s say a whole week) and we really saw WINTER. It was surely my first time to experience this much snow.

There’s so much snow and we are snowed in! …But that did not stop us from having a good flow session online last Sunday. Thank you to those of you that joined me on Sunday. We had a nice international session yet again —- it’s such a blessing to be able to connect with everyone around the world with the help of yoga (and internet).

Staying Mindful

Bringing in positive mindset onto the mat. Let’s always try and stay positive and happy — that’s easier said than done in these difficult times at the moment, right? But what we need to focus on is truly to stay grateful for what we got at the moment and try to look forward at some of the positive things in life.

Brand new year: January 2021 schedule!

Did you make your new year’s resolution?
Look at that, we welcomed the brand new year, 2021, JUST LIKE THAT. 2020 went by rather fast and it truly was an odd year. I’m not saying that 2021 would dramatically change and be all peachy-keen right away, but I do hope that we get some normality this year.

Happy New Year for 2021!

I guess in Japan is already 2021, so I can say to those yogis in Japan, “Happy New Year’s!” But the rest of us, let the countdown begin as we wait for the brand new year to come. We can welcome the brand new year with a bit more optimism and open heart, and let us hope that 2021 would be a better year!
