Yoga to Cleanse and Detox!

Happy new year everyone!
 
I think most of us started easing back in to reality last week after being stuck in our twinkly little Christmas bubbles (or baubles as it were!) for the last couple of weeks. Sometimes, it is easier to start off gently when it comes to picking (back) up some healthy habits that may have gone out of the window during December, rather than punishing ourselves by going cold turkey (pun intended!) on January 1st.
 
In light of this, we began with gentle practices last week when classes started back up again on Thursday 3rd. This week however, we will be focusing our intention more on kick-starting our new year by cleansing and detoxing ourselves after what was most likely a pretty self-indulgent December!
 
You may have noticed by now, that your body will start to let you know when it is in need of some TLC again. Over Christmas, you may have started to feel sluggish and bloated, and lose your motivation and energy - the stodgy food and alcohol has started to take its toll, and it is time to get back to health.
 
Also, for a lot of us, January feels like a fresh start. And as we all know that our mind and body are intricately connected, cleansing and detoxing the physical body is a great way to cleanse and detox the mind as well. This allows us to wipe the slate clean and begin again, with a sharper, more concentrated focus.
 
So let’s get “back on track” again this week, and support each other on the path to physical and mental wellness in 2019.
 
Namaste
