News

It's been ages since I last had a chance to write on my blog. How people who update loads everyday manage to have a life as well I don't know! After a busy end of year I've been having a few weeks off but now we're back to normal with classes and retreats. 

Tiled floors are fantastic in the heat of summer but can be too cold for extensive floor work in winter. So the yoga room has a new addition of some large thick rugs for winter. The rugs were generously donated to us by Rani & Steve Saward.  Am having some trouble uploading photos to my blog, once I resolve this issue I'll upload photos of the winter layout.

The new year for us didn't start too well as two dear friends died. One after a long illness and the other very suddenly aged only 40. It does bring home the fact that we should try to live every moment as well as we can and to appreciate and love family and friends and show them this perhaps a little more often than we do.

Time is flying by and it's hard to believe that it's already February 8th.Life now goes past so fast that it's easy to let slide things that should be of more importance than just working and striving for more money. Don't get me wrong, money is great and when you have it opens up worlds of possibilities. But, the pursuit of material possessions doesn't make for happiness, just a need for more stuff. I've been trying to make more time to appreciate our wonderful countryside and just enjoying walking and sitting looking a the view. We are lucky here in that the weather is more often good than not and wherever you look there's something beautiful to see.

I wish everyone a happy and healthy 2011.
