Dhumavati and Celebrating the Crone

In this special episode I’m farewelling one of my best friends, my Nana, Alma Rose and celebrating all the amazing crones in my life. Goddess Dhumavati had a lot in common with Alma (not just the wrinkles and ‘withered breasts’). She reminds us to discern the fleeting from the permanent and not sweat the small stuff.

How do we know when it’s time to take massive action, and how do we stay well and high-vibe in the process?

The Discipline of Force: Really Bringing Yoga to Business

One of the definitions of ‘Hatha Yoga’ is ‘the discipline of force’. In this episode I’m proposing we all take a little more discomfort in our businesses in order to move them forward. And along the way not judging ourselves for our inaction, procrastination or avoidance behaviour.
