WELCOME TO WINTER AND THE MIDDLE OF THE YEAR 2024!
Even though this season is cold, potentially miserable for some, I know that together we are going to find pockets of joy as we step into our power and take flight…
I know just the thought of these words may have some of you fretting in fear – “Don’t fear Dear Yogi, Lynnette is here and I will guide you safely into the foundations of taking flight, help you drop those limiting beliefs and guide you to feel strong, powerful and agile”. Taking flight is my absolute favourite part of the yoga practice and on this journey of self-discovery we will try new things and feel the humbling sensations of just sometimes (safely of course) landing on planet earth.
If you are newer to the practice and my classes, reading this mailer may cause you some anxiety…. PLEASE do not be worried, I promise you this is not my first rodeo and together as a Yoga Family we will help you step into your power! The magic lies in the preparation of the mind and the body, your strength, mobility, flexibility, and stability, your willingness to practice consistently, embracing your fears, creating stability, and being aware of your ego. We will be working on lots of lovely drills, techniques, and I will offer the tools and inspired motivation you need to practice safely.
Leonardo da Vinci is famously attributed for the words, “once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.”
JUST AS WE BRAVE THE WINTER CHILL, I INVITE YOU TO BE BRAVE WITH ME….
Stepping into our POWER and Taking FLIGHT is a challenging part of the physical asana practice, but they teach us so much more than needing to be strong. These shapes allow us the chance to move with – and through – fear, giving us opportunities to learn more about the mind as we attempt each shape and let go of the fear of falling or failure. They teach us to find playfulness and to surrender to the ego, something we need more of in everyday life.
Together we will all laugh and fall and try again, and again. Just like life it won’t be completely linear. However, when you have those breakthrough moments it’s a huge confidence and positive self-worth BOOST. Now, in saying this also remember I am not a magician, we together may not look perfect or may not have even taken off from the ground by the 31st July 2024, but I know my magic teacher bag is filled with tips & tricks that will give you all the courage you will need…
“Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable when you try something new.” — Brian Tracy
When you take responsibility for your life, serendipitous events unfold and lead you to awaken your inherent wisdom. At this level you must be willing to step out of your comfort zone and meet life with passion and fervour.
LOVE & LIGHT, LYNNETTE
