Yoga and Geometry: Re-learning Maths with your body alignment

Maths was my favorite subject in school and in Maths it was Geometry. How cool it was to use a pair of rulers and compass to construct shapes on paper to a high degree of accuracy. I was pleasantly surprised to rediscover Geometry through Yoga! And Geometry truly comes to life when we come into […]

It’s been a while…

… Since I last blogged. Typing in this space brings back a sense of familiarity and nostalgia. I keep (kept, to be specific) a WordPress blog too, and the last entry posted was probably 5 years ago. It’s also been a while since I got out of bed before 7am EVERY weekday. It’s no easy feat; I give myself a huge […]

2nd Week of RYT Yoga Journey

以前练习瑜伽追求体式的进步，现在系统学习RYT以后更追求的是理论知识的深入。从骨骼，器官，肌肉等各方面去了解和研习人体的身体机能，用瑜伽的理念去调整自己的状态。细想练习瑜伽的这几年，确实很少生病，以前不懂其中的原理，现在学习了理论，可以慢慢自己分析总结其中的关键点，甚至去帮助身边的朋友简单调理，瞬间就有了专业的成就感。可惜自己还在知识对积累和摸索中，对各个知识点的串联还不够，以至于对课程的编排连贯性还不足，以前接触的课堂英文指令比较多，自己中文课堂的表达性也还在生疏的练习中，因此200小时的课程以外还需要花更多的时间去梳理，坚持在yogi路上不断进步～总的来说，瑜伽是一个日积月累的过程，是一种积极向上的生活态度，生活也处处可瑜伽。 Mia，武汉RYT200

When they responded to come, I was really excited but at the same time, thoughts came running…. “omg it’s going to […]

Dvidasana at 43 😀

When I told my friends that I was going to take 200 hours YTT, some were shocked and some thankfully supported me and applauded me to even dare to do it at 43. When I told my mum, she thought that I was nuts to even think about it. Nevertheless, I registered and now I […]

Yoga and your body

I have always wondered why I turned to yoga instinctively, particularly whenever I am feeling down, stressed or closed in. After learning about the anatomy of the body, I have a more scientific explanation now (compared to an emotive just because! whenever people asked me why I’m so into yoga in the past). So, by […]
