Today in our live-streamed yoga from Rugby, we looked at the Sacral Chakra symbol. It is an orange lotus with six petals.

How Much Water Have You Had Today?

How much water have you had so far today?

I often find drinking water a bit boring so I like to pop some slices of lime or cucumber and mint leaves into a jug to infuse. It does taste really good!

Nothing Changes, if Nothing Changes

In our yoga class in Rugby, we explored the concept of “change.” What Yoga has understood about being human is that every experience leaves some kind of residue in our system; Something remains in us from every experience that we’ve had over the course of our lifetime.

Lotus Flower Mudra

In Feel Good Friday Yoga in Rugby, we explored the Lotus Flower “Padma” Mudra. A mudra is a symbolic gesture performed by the hands. It is the Sanskrit word for “energetic seal.” So it is an energetic seal that affects the flow of energy in the body. 

Practising specific mudras is an outward representation of your own inward intentions. In yoga, they are generally performed in cross-legged, lotus or hero position.
