Themes of the week: 1.20 The Five Keys of Wisdom
Classes Taught: 9
We continued our philosophy journey through the Yoga Sutras, moving into Sutra 1.20: "The Five Keys of Wisdom".
Faith provides the foundation. Energy fuels the practice. Memory supports the journey. Meditation deepens the understanding. Wisdom guides the path.
Glimmers of the Week
It was the small things again this week...
I love September so much. There is a hint of Autumn in the air, that 'back-to-school-fresh-start' energy (even though there is no back-to-school here). It always puts me in the baking mood. Lots of soup was made, and I started to 'feather our nest' with cosy blankets and little touches of Autumn decor. We continued foraging for blackberries by the river, it just never gets boring!
On Wednesday, after a productive and exciting meeting with Sarah, my Ebb & Flow partner, I foraged for elderberries and made elderberry syrup. On Saturday, we enjoyed some family fun at a local funfair (not my favourite environment, but when you're with your family, it doesn't matter so much).
In yoga, meeting new students and welcoming back some of my students who had to ease off over the summer and are now returning to practice was lovely.

Looking Ahead
Sarah and I have 2 wonderful mini retreats planned for October to harness the energy of Samhain. Both have spaces, and you can find out more and book online by clicking on the pictures below.
And finally.... This is the schedule for the coming week. You can book all classes online. Please note: there will be no Saturday class as I am away at a yoga retreat.
I wish you a truly wonderful week.
Namaste.
