07 Jul The Power of an Early Morning Ritual

Think back to when you woke up this morning. Did you immediately rise and set your intention for the day? Or did you hit the snooze button twice, or was it three times? How you start your day is the ultimate indicator for how your day will progress. By beginning your day mindfully and putting healthy practices first, you are more likely to continue that pattern as you navigate through a busy and hectic schedule. What works for one person may not work for all, but for many, finding those moments of peace and introspection in the morning can restore balance.

25 May Meditation is a necessity not a Luxury

Meditation and mindfulness are big buzzwords these days. The benefits of feeling more calm, clear and connected would make anyone at least a little interested in trying it out. With the boom of the wellbeing industry, meditation might be considered to be a luxury… something to do ‘when you have the time’. But with our minds on overdrive, stress of the rise and no sign of things slowing down, meditation is becoming more and more of a necessity.

12 May Overwhelmed by the Pace of Life?

I wonder if you’re like me and sometimes become overwhelmed by the fast pace of life and the rate at which we are bombarded by information? Always trying to squeeze more into the day? Not to mention phone checking, App notifications, text messages, emails, hyperlinks, social media… Agghh! ‘Cognitive overload’ impacts our ability to remain focused and grounded. When I walk from one room into another with a task in mind, and then forget what the task was, before I even enter the next room, I know my mind is overwhelmed and grounding is in order. I need to unplug and get back to basics.

19 Apr “What if I fall?” Oh but my darling, What if you fly?”

“We believe the ultimate goal in life is to follow your bliss and inspire others to do the same.”- Honza & Claudine Lafond After 15 days in beautiful Bali we return rejuvenated, inspired and maybe a little more flexible! We have traveled to Bali a number of times over the past 10 years (mainly due to Dustin’s surfing) however this trip was in a league of its own. Our first stop was in Padang Bai (east Bali) where we both completed an intensive teacher training in acroyoga. ACROVINYASA is a style of yoga that combines a solo Vinyasa practice, inversion training and acroyoga.

You’ll round out the day with a 30-minute guided meditation to clear your mind and relax your body.

17 Mar The Male Yogi

How many of our female members have begged their partner, a family member or a male friend to come to a yoga class, only to be met with resistance and opposition? Myths and stereotypes surrounding yoga are a major demotivator for men. Yoga is often (wrongly!) viewed as being too feminine, too soft, too hippy or too New Age - not a ‘real’ workout. What many men don’t realise is that yoga can be just as intense exercise as weights or cardio. Yoga allows you to hone your mental focus, rid your body of toxins, and boost your physical performance. The hardest part for most men is challenging the misconceptions and taking the leap to merely try out a class.

14 Mar W.O.W. – Warrior One Weekend

I remember the night of March 16, 2015 – it was the night before we opened the doors to Warrior One Yoga. As I laid in bed my mind racing - Have we done everything right? Are people going to like our vision and us?...
