YOGA - ✨
an opportunity to find places and sensations in your body that change the experience of your life and your possibilities.

And isn’t that what we live for?

Enriching the quality of our lives!

As we engage in yoga, we cultivate mindfulness and body awareness, allowing us to recognise and release tension, stress, and emotional blockages.

And if you’d like a yoga practice focused more on balance, flow and mobility, join us Monday night at 5.30pm.

Follow for more joyful movement snacks.

Much love & balance,
Bettina ❤️.

I witness this again and again.

The approach to yoga (and other movement and healing modalities) being one where we want to get rid of something from our body, alter something or add something.

Where the attitude is against the body.

As if it was an entity outside of us that’s hugely imperfect, undesired and just can’t get anything right. Sometimes it’s even annoying.

When this belief is present (and yes, often unconscious), disconnect is amplified, love and kindness seem impassible, and the annoying bits become even more “annoying”.

We all experienced that at some stage. On the mat. And in relationship.

What helps is the shift to the attitude of TEAM.

With each other, not against.

We’re in this together.

It’s creating the dynamics where the body (or partner) is honoured and accepted for what and who she/he is.

The body is perfect in any moment.

The healing is guaranteed in any moment.

We are here for each other. We’re a team. Not enemies.

With our practice we lay the loving and kind foundations for change to occur. Perhaps less weakness more strength, perhaps better balance, less instability. Better single pointed focus, less distraction. More responsible responsiveness, less automatic reactivity.

Bring TEAM back into your life.

On the mat.

In your relationships.

In life.

Less against.

More together.

Follow for more life, yoga and relationship wisdom follow @theartofbalanceyoga

And join me on the mat for group or 1-1 yoga practice, coaching and counseling sessions.

You’re perfect, Bettina 💝.

These powerful movements not only enhance stability and strength but also stimulate brain function by improving focus and coordination.

Outdoor practice boosts your mood and connects you with nature.

No mat, no equipment needed. You don’t even have to take your shoes off.

Breathe, move, and have fun.

Your brain and body will thank you.
Now and later.

See you in the studio.

Bettina ♥️.

Our logic and our intellect may seem one dimensional, our bodies and their wisdom are truly three dimensional.

Let’s trust that your body knows the answers before your mind catches on.

Sceptical?

Practice yoga with me, and experience the wealth of resources available to you when you learn to connect to your body.

In the meantime, start moving your body.

♥️Stand and gently lean back with the upper part of your upper body, feel the front of your body stretching gently. Notice that.
Linger a little.
Celebrate both, the feeling and the sensation.

♥️Then add on the backwards movement with your arms.
Again, move at your own pace.
Enjoy the sensations and the movement.

A good start.

Well done,

Now celebrate.

Repeat tomorrow.

Follow for more.

Love from my heart to yours, Bettina ♥️.

May we all have the courage to do our bit. 🙏💜

„Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu“

is a Sanskrit mantra that translates to „May all beings everywhere be happy and free.“ It expresses a wish for universal peace and well-being. It’s often used in spiritual practices to cultivate compassion and goodwill towards all living beings.

Love, Bettina 🙏💜.

The practice of yoga is so much for then merely movement.

Movement, shapes with your body, or ASANA in Sanskrit, is an important part of yoga. Of course.

Yet, if we close ourselves off to all the other possibilities yoga gifts us, we miss out on a big part of life skills relevant and useful for navigating and thriving in life.

One of these other benefits and goals of yoga is

📌yoga is presence in motion

It’s easy to be present when all is still, smooth, going your preferred way, organised and peaceful.

But what happens if there’s chaos, unrest,discomfort, dislike, too much stimulation for your liking, or not enough stimulation for your liking, what then?

Can you still be present. And move? Move through life, move through your day. Be present!

Presence in motion. Try it on for this week. Or simply for a day.

And notice what happens.

Talk soon.

With love, Bettina 🫶.

PS: squatting, Malasana, is always a good idea.
