feel a cold coming on?

 A lady came to a yoga session last week and thanked me for the suggestion to stop a cold in its tracks. Well, it wasn't my brilliant idea - it is another yogic suggestion originating centuries ago - and as my mum said, if these old ideas didn't work they would have been phased out long ago.

Skip a meal and instead - sip on a cup of hot water in which a teaspoon of ground ginger, black pepper and cinnamon has been mixed.

It doesn't taste too bad  - it sounds worse than it tastes - and it certainly beats the horrible headiness and chestiness of a cold for days on end.

And remember maybe  a cold is your body's way of telling you to slow down. And if you don't listen, maybe your wise body will make you.

Stunning Waihi Beach

As the sun comes up Waihi Beach
looks stunning. Usually no one else on beach to share the beauty of a new day.

Read the website about a yoga conference in the States - the Yoga Alliance of Yoga Teachers that I belong to and thought this was an easy to read article about yoga and how it is so easy to do and good for everyone.
