Everything is New For Me
11/09/2017
Do you ever have that feeling, as you surface from the deep rest of yoga nidra, that the world has been washed clean? That all the colours are brighter and more vivid, that you are more able to appreciate the marvel of being alive? This is one of the many reasons I love to practice and share yoga nidra - I see the relief and delight in people's faces when they see the world has been washed clean whilst they rested. . . or at least, we feel more empowered to do our small bit of what's needed in the world right now.

I invite you to come and share in some of the delightful offerings coming up over the next few months, including our 12th anniversary Santosa Living Yoga and Bhakti Camp starting this weekend which includes yoga nidra five times a day in the temple yurt (come for the full time, a few days or just a day).

Greetings! As many of you may know, for the last several months I have been preparing and planning my very first teaching pilgrimage to North America. To say the least, it's been a pure delight to meet and build relationships with the amazing yoga community there. They have welcomed me and the teachings with open arms - and the invitations to keep spreading these timeless messages continue to expand! Jai Ma!

Island Cuckoo
calls before four,
to watch colours pouring back,
As tides of light
awaken
brightness in this Atlantic fragment
of the Burren.
Voice of Crow
upon the ruined gable
of this tiny temple
sings still
after eleven.
Between these two
birds' calls
stretch
eighteen
bright long hours of midsummer day.

Prayers from a liminal place:
At the edge
of the world,
may we see sky
in water;
may we feel space
in air;
and may there be clouds
on the sand
to surprise us.
Where worlds meet
in openness,
May we be free
from certainty.
Anything
is possible here.

Please permit me depart
To welcome death with grace and ease
As ripened fruit falls from the trees

When you know the most joyful day
and the most terrible night
as one moment,
then awareness is alone
with its Lord.

Rivers of Honey Flowing - Summer sharings of Total Yoga Nidra Shakti
13/07/2016
We dreamt that She swam in the rivers of honey
that flow through the lands of these bodies of love.
We felt how She danced in the streams and the pools,
of the honey that sweetens these places of love;
and all of the dance that She did in the streams,
and all of the rivers that run to our hearts,
flow deep from the Source to a great sea of sweetness,
to an ocean of honey that rocks in our hearts.
Come now and float on the heart ocean’s sweetness.
Come now and swim in the waves from the source.
