"There is no passion to be found settling in a life that is less than the one you are capable of living "
Nelson Mandela
We hope that you are well and that this past month has treated you with care, since we have had snow, mercury in retrograde and other challenges.
As I am writing this, I am looking out at a beautiful snow filled landscape in Sweden and am overwhelmed by the beauty of nature and the stillness that snow and colder weather provide us with. As much as we long for spring and warmer weather, part of this journey and so much what yoga wants to teach us, is to love this moment, this journey and not always longing for a different place, season or even phase.
We enjoyed a beautiful month at Earth Yoga and felt the ongoing support and determination from many of you committing to a regular practice , signing up for both a year and 6 months in advance. Thank you also for joining our workshops this month where Mirjam Wagner went deeper into the knowledge of Yin Yoga.
Our lovely studio in Portals is running really well in the care of Katja, who together with all the teachers in Portals (Julia, Petra, Tracy, Jay and Agnes) are doing a wonderful job bringing new yogis to Earth Yoga.
We are excited to announce that we have updated and changed our look on our website and we feel really happy with the result.
We couldn´t have done it without the fantastic help from Tracey from Reshape Design and Pernilla Daniellsson from Conmigo / Life style Mallorca. Please check out our new look and do let us know if there is anything that is not clear on your computer.
This month we are honored to invite you to an Introduction of Meditation and the benefits of meditation hosted by our friend Ezrah. It will take place on Sunday 8th March. Time : 16.00 - 17.30 It will be an good way for those who have never tried meditation before and also for those of us who practice meditation on a regular basis to reconnect to why this practice really does work.
Ezrah explains; "We all want to be happy. But often the relentless pace and challenges of life make it impossible to know where to look for happiness. Through the wisdom of meditation, however, we can find peace and contentment. To our amazement, we discover a profound stillness that is always with us, beneath the turbulence of all our thoughts and emotions. When we allow our mind to settle, quietly, in its own natural peace, then what happens is quite extraordinary. This unique course has been specially developed by Sogyal Rinpoche after many years of teaching in the West. It brings together over 2,000 years of Buddhist wisdom and experience in a way that is authentic, accessible and completely relevant to modern life. Led by experienced meditators, it offers a complete introduction to meditation and shows how it can unlock our natural confidence, compassion and creativity. Students will gain a genuine experience of meditation and all the tools they need to take the benefits into every aspect of their life"
