My last blog was last May. How quickly a year passes. Its not been the best year if I’m honest. 2021 started with good health and the best of intentions… mainly a challenge to raise money for a different charity every month but also to live my best life regardless but also hoping to progress […]

I might of mentioned a few times that I’m going to be 50 this year and as part of those celebrations I have started a year of fundraising. Supporting 12 charities over 12 months. So far, I have run, walked, cycled and now I’m going to do what I’m good at…Yoga May is Mental Health […]

Its 2021! Im sitting here late on a freezing Friday afternoon having just finished my 200 hrs Yin Yoga Teacher Training. Hurrah!!! I was unsure how it would be learning online but as always Dhugal Meachem, my teacher for Hatha and Yin, prepared an amazing class. Am so excited, happy and grateful to have completed […]

Last year I set myself a 30 day Challenge of Handstands not because I loved them but because they were a challenge for me. They still are! but that is the point its not about doing something easy. This year my challenge is to meditate everyday for 30 days. Doesn’t sound difficult and as a […]

This has been an amazing year for allnewyogalife. If you had asked me 5 years ago what I would be doing in life I would never of guessed at being a yoga teacher. But here I am! A year of regular Hatha classes, already started a new training in Yin Yoga. Held a beautiful retreat […]

There is no denying Savasana is everyones favourite in yoga class! but is it a pose or is it just the lying down part at the end of every class? Lets break it down! Savasana, Sava meaning corpse and asana meaning pose. Its definitly a pose! The pose of a corpse where you are literally […]

Last week a close friend said to me she would come to my classes once she felt less anxious about her size and phyisical ability. It was a sad moment for me to hear my friends pain and worry. It would never of occured to me she felt this way. In my eyes my friend […]
