    Yoga and pubs 

    I remember when there used to be a pub on what seemed like every corner.


    When I started my yoga life in India 30+ years ago there was not a lot of awareness of yoga and some would even make a “joke” and call it yoghurt.


    Now there is almost a yoga teacher on every corner! That’s great that many people on the planet are evolving into a higher sensitive & aware vibration. Yoga really is a sustainable answer to good balanced  health and wellbeing. 


    If you are new to yoga and thinking of joining a class that’s fantastic and  if your heart gets touched by yoga you will have what I believe the best tool on the planet that you can use anytime and anywhere for free!


    Just a word of caution who you entrust your body, heart and mind too – if it’s that yoga teacher on the corner where the pub used to be – make sure they are well skilled – and not just looking good – yoga  is not a competition of how well you can do a posture or what the person next to you is doing – nor should you push yourself too hard – yoga is a “work in” not a “work out.” 


    The gift of Yoga is the bridge between the body, heart and the mind so that you know what’s going on down there. 

    Ayurveda says dis-ease comes in 6 stages – if you truly take the time to breathe and listen – you will hear your body talk to you and you will become your own doctor – you will recognise when you are out of balance, & Ayurveda can teach you skills on how to bring yourself back into balance.


    I think balance is the quest of life – the planet is spinning and tilted so of course there is no static state of balance and perfection – but this beautiful 5000+ year old science Yoga Ayurveda gives us the skills – yoga ayurveda can cost no money to live  – your health really is in your own hands.

    I remember in my  20’s I never thought that my body would change and as a result so would my practice – I heard my teacher say it would happen – and I didn’t believe it could happen to me – but life happens and from my experience the more you can look after yourself in your younger years the easier the transition will be. Having a healthy, body and mind is our vehicle for this life – look after it – no one else will.

  • 14 Fake Olive Oil Companies Are Revealed Now

    14 Fake Olive Oil Companies Are Revealed Now

    Avoid These Brands

    It was found that even 7 of the biggest olive oil makers in the USA, mix their items with cheap oils to get more profits. Namely, one of the products we regard as healthiest and a remedy for longevity has been corrupted.

    Apparently, even 70% of olive oil sold in the U.S. stores is fake, as they have been cut with cheaper, inferior oils like canola and sunflower oil! This is similar to the 2008 practice in Italy. This meant seizure for 85 oil farms that mixed some percentage chlorophyll with sunflower and canola to the olive oil.

    fakes

    The oil was mixed, colored, perfumed and flavored too, and these things made the Australian government investigate their oils. The results were awful. After that, not one brand named extra virgin olive oil got the 2012 certificate of approval.

    These scams made the University of California to study 124 imported brands of extra virgin olive oil and discovered that more than 70% of the samples did not pass the test.

    THESE ARE THE BRANDS THAT FAILED THE TEST:

    Carapelli

    Mezzetta

    Pompeian

    Mazola

    Primadonna

    Colavita

    Sasso

    Antica Badia

    Star

    Whole Foods

    Felippo Berio

    Safeway

    Coricelli

    Bertolli

    ON THE OTHER HAND, THE FOLLOWING BRANDS ARE TRUSTWORTHY:

    Lucero

    McEvoy Ranch Organic

    Corto Olive

    Omaggio

    Bariani Olive Oil

    California Olive Ranch

    Lucini

    Ottavio

    Cobram Estate

    Olea Estates

    Kirkland Organic

    HOW TO TEST OLIVE OIL:

    Additionally, you can also test the olive oil you have at home. You should put the bottle in the fridge for half an hour, and if it starts to solidify, it means that the oil is pure, as it contains a large amount of monounsaturated fat.

    On the other hand, if it does not solidify, it is fake. Yet, just to be sure, look for official governmental seals of approval on the label, like “Australian Extra Virgin Certified” and “California Olive Oil Council Certified Extra Virgin.”

    We really hope you find this article helpful and don’t forget to share it with your friends and family. Thank You.

  • Yoga in the Sun 

    Yoga in the Sun 

    Personally I don’t like yoga in the sun or out in the open around people and the elements. 

     I prefer to practise yoga so I can listen internally and connect with my intuition & become aware of a deeper awareness that may be stored up in areas within body  – as it was said to me once – yoga is not a work out but a work in.
