A fire havan is such a powerful ceremony. It is a ritual from the ancient Indian Vedic tradition. When you participate in a Haven ceremony your energy naturally shifts from your headspace and moves to your heart ❤️

This picture was taken recently at our retreat with @las_flores_de_lola

It’s been so long since we held the space for a fire havan but as they say “you never forget how to ride a bicycle!” I love doing the Havan set up, it’s my own little ritual to gather all the flowers and laying out all the elements in the right place.

The Havan kund is at the centre in which the fire 🔥 is lite. Then melted ghee and samagri ( mixture that includes seeds, resins, grains, herbs) are offered to the fire. This offering is a symbolism of purification. The conch is blown at the end to dispels negativity and brings positive energy.

In the lineage of our yoga training people from all around the world gather on a Saturday afternoon either in their homes, yoga centres or ashrams to chant 108 rounds of a mantra called the maha-mrit-yun-jaya mantra. We chant this for health, healing, transformation, and support in the face of difficulties.

We dedicate this mantra to others who may be facing difficulties in their life. But we also chant for the greater good.

We were a bit nervous how the people on the retreat would find the experience. It’s a very ancient and traditional practice. Thankfully they loved it.

We think it’s a very beautiful practice and we’d love to host more Havans with you all very soon 🙏

It’s so easy to get caught up in the chit chat of our busy minds.

I’m sure you have experienced, how a thought can evoke an emotion. And this emotion has triggered a reaction that you feel physically in your body or emotionally. Let’s say an emotion is triggered from a difficult conversation or perhaps something you’ve watched or read in the news.

Depending on your mindset, there’s a tendency for your mind to lead you to the worse-case scenario, prompting irrational thoughts.

So often we confuse our thoughts with who we are. It can be hard to take a step back and observe them objectively as an impartial observer, as a witness.

Self enquiry Meditation shows you the way to develop the ability to observe and understand your thoughts without getting entangled in them.

Practising Antar Mouna enables you to exhaust these unwanted thoughts and helps you to clear your mind.

Sunday. Never appreciated this day growing up. Thought it was the most boring day of the week when I was a kid. In my late teens and twenties it was the day to recover. Fast forward to now and I love it! It’s been a busy schedule lately, today has been the first Sunday in a few weeks that we’ve been able to spend this quality time together. We both love being out in nature, it truly feeds the soul. Hope you’ve had a lovely Sunday too! 🙏

My journey along this path of wellness could be co

My journey along this path of wellness could be considered quite extreme. I’ve made some rather big changes in my life in order to prioritise my wellbeing.

Changes that included walking away from my career and choosing to live a much simpler life.

What is the secret to living a balanced, healthy life? In this fast-paced world in which we live, is such a thing even possible? To live a life where you feel truly at peace and connected with that deepest part of yourself.

A life where you wake in the morning feeling energised, with a clear mind. You feel motivated and inspired about all you do in life.

I do believe it is possible to live a balanced and healthy life. It requires making a pledge to yourself to put your needs and wellness first, and as you know, this is not always easy.

However, the relationship you have with yourself is the most important relationship you will ever have. Don’t you think it’s worth the investment?

Here are the 5 pillars of wellness that Ram and I believe are the pillars to living a balanced healthy life.

[ES👇] Do you have a special place. A happy place. Somewhere you go to when life is feeling a little tougher than usual. Somewhere that soothes your soul. This is my happy place. Where’s yours?

Me encanta miércoles! ¿Tienes un lugar especial? Un lugar feliz. Un lugar al que vas cuando la vida se siente un poco más dura de lo habitual. Un lugar que alivia tu alma. Este es mi lugar feliz. ¿Dónde está el tuyo?

Yesterday was World Meditation Day, whilst meditat

Yesterday was World Meditation Day, whilst meditation has become an event on one of those annual event calendars, it is a good reminder to honour how this wonderful practice can help to transform our lives for the better.

And for good reason. It genuinely works!

Life is beautiful but can also be very complex. With many balls to keep in the air all at the same time.

Running a home, juggling a career, bringing up your kids, managing relationships, paying the bills, etc. etc…

There are always new problems to solve and lessons to learn.

From relieving stress and anxiety to improving your focus and building emotional resilience, meditation is like a soothing balm for our fast-paced lives.

To honour World Meditation day and to support you on your journey to finding calm. Ram and I want to remind you that you can access a free practice ( or two) to help you find that much needed calm in this increasingly busy life! Click on our BIO to access a Yoga Nidra, 10 minute meditation practice or a mindfulness practice.
