It’s been almost 10 months since I offered the last meditation class.

So we’ll kick off a new series of meditation classes with a Meditation on Thursday the 17th of March 5pm – 6pm. It will be held at our home in Silkstone. You need to book and confirm your attendance.

The cost is $13.00

The topic is on the full moon. Josie who you might know from the classes, will share some of her astrological wisdom and will tell us what is signifiant about this full moon in March (moon in Virgo) and close to the Equinox. We’ll start the class with breathing exercises and meditation, then astrology on the current mood, finishing with another short meditation to reflect.

3 daily healthy habits

A few weeks ago, in one of the yoga classes, I talked about daily healthy habits. We narrowed it down to three. Here a short summary for everyone:

lime water.jpg
I start my day with lemon or lime water. Presently I have fresh limes from my garden. 

 

  1.  Drink plenty of water 2 – 3 litres per day.

  2.  Stretch and move daily. This can be yoga, walking, swimming, running, cycling, fitness class, dancing, a few rounds of Sun Salutations. etc.  Any kind of movement and stretching you like and you will do. It does not have to be long, 15 minutes daily is good. 

  3. Breathing exercises. Focusing on deep abdominal breathing, taking time out throughout the day to make time for some conscious breathing. This can even lead to a short meditation. 

 

Stretch daily - sun salutation
Stretch daily

breathing exercise - anuloma viloma
breathing exercises

going into stillness and silence
daily meditation

Start with small, steady steps and keep it up.

I wish you a good, happy, daily practice.

Prema Maria xx

It’s for SBS Radio the German speaking program. The segment within the German program is in Swiss – German (my first language), the weekly program on a Sunday night is called Echo Helvetia: interviews, portraits, stories, etc. about Swiss immigrants in Australia.
