NEWS

I have just completed my HOP (Hour of power certification )
I am so excited to be bringing these classes to Lincolnshire starting after the summer holiday period  .

What is the Hour of Power (HOP)?

Imagine a fitness class that allowed you to develop the mental focus of a yoga master, the core muscle conditioning of a gymnast, the high-energy & fat-burning capability of an elite cyclist, and yet the full-body muscle development of a gym athlete. Imagine achieving those results through a single studio fitness class that has been tried and tested for over 30years, breaking records and changing lives for tens of thousands of ordinary people from every walk of life… you are imagining HOP®

The 7 Chakras for healing

Dear Yogis

Tomorrow evening i will be do a special class aimed at helping us to balance our 7 chakras using the poses bellow specifically to help release any energy blockages within the body .



The seven chakras are the centers in our bodies in which energy flows through.

Blocked energy in our seven chakras can often lead to illness, so it's important to understand what each chakra represents and what we can do to keep this energy flowing freely. 

1. Root Chakra — Represents our foundation and feeling of being grounded.
  • Location: Base of spine in tailbone area.
  • Emotional issues: Survival issues such as financial independence, money and food.

Tree Pose 


Great for feeling more alert, secure, and stable. 
 When it is blocked or out of balance, you can become needy, have low self-esteem, or have self-destructive behaviours. When in balance, you feel strong and confident; you can stand up on your own two feet and take care of yourself.


2. Sacral Chakra — Our connection and ability to accept others and new experiences.
  • Location: Lower abdomen, about two inches below the navel and two inches in.
  • Emotional issues: Sense of abundance, well-being, pleasure and sexuality.

Goddess Pose (wide leg squat)


Great for generating creativity and emotional stability. This chakra corresponds with your reproductive system and represents  creativity, and fertility
 When it’s out of balance, you can feel emotionally unstable, guilty, or hard on yourself.
 When it’s in balance, you feel creative, positive, and receptive to change—like the ocean and its tides, you’re in the flow. 

3. Solar Plexus Chakra — Our ability to be confident and in control of our lives.
  • Location: Upper abdomen in the stomach area.
  • Emotional issues: Self-worth, self-confidence and self-esteem.

Boat Pose 


Great for fostering personal power, change. You’ve heard the expression “firing on all cylinders.” When this chakra is in balance, you feel alive and have the self-esteem and confidence to take action and be productive. When it’s blocked, you lack courage, have low self-esteem, and feel stagnant 
and inert. By working on this chakra, you can awaken your true 
personal inner power and work through your fear of taking risks.

4. Heart Chakra — Our ability to love.
  • Location: Center of chest just above the heart.
  • Emotional issues: Love, joy and inner peace.


Camel Pose 
Great for being more joyful, loving, and empathetic. Awaken to the power of unconditional love within you through compassion, forgiveness, and acceptance. When the heart chakra is blocked, you become possessive and codependent, and may form dysfunctional relationships. You may also stay isolated for fear of rejection. When you stimulate this chakra, you can heal past wounds by reopening your heart, learn to love unconditionally, and form healthy relationships.

5. Throat Chakra — Our ability to communicate.
  • Location: Throat.
  • Emotional issues: Communication, self-expression of feelings and the truth.

Supported Shoulderstand 


Great for becoming more outspoken, finding your voice. When this chakra is blocked, you may feel like you can’t find your voice or your truth. You may also be overly talkative and not listen to others. When this chakra is open and stimulated, your voice moves through space to help you communicate your emotions in healthy ways. You also become better at listening to others and honoring their personal truths without judgment.

6. Third Eye Chakra — Our ability to focus on and see the big picture.
  • Location: Forehead between the eyes (also called the Brow Chakra).
  • Emotional issues: Intuition, imagination, wisdom and the ability to think and make decisions.

Easy Pose


Great for learning new things, trusting your instincts. This chakra is associated with your intuition, or sixth sense, and governs how the rest of the chakras 
function. When it’s functioning well, you have insight, and you trust your inner 
wisdom to face life’s challenges and choices. When it’s blocked, you feel close-minded, too attached to logic, untrusting, and cynical. Working on the sixth chakra opens your mind to the bigger picture 
and different perspectives, and it helps 
you receive the wisdom that cannot be seen or heard by ordinary senses

7. Crown Chakra — The highest chakra represents our ability to be fully connected spiritually.
  • Location: The very top of the head.
  • Emotional issues: Inner and outer beauty, our connection to spirituality and pure bliss.

Corpse Pose (Savasana)

Lifting your mood , detaching from ego. The crown chakra connects to beauty itself and the spiritual realm. It helps you to understand who you are beyond your physical self—that you are a spiritual being having a human experience. It is not located in the body but actually hovers above the crown of the head. When it’s closed, you think happiness can only come from the outside, and you suffer. Working on this chakra helps you to feel free in any situation

Homeopathy

My baby suffered with extreme eczema , for many months ,i was distraught and tried every lotion and potion under the sun , reluctantly i gave into steroid cream to relive my babies suffering , but of course it soon returned . That s when Susan Homer came into mine and Luke s life and changed everything for the better .

Sue Homer is a qualified . experienced homeopath,fully insured and a member of the Alliance registered homeopaths.  
Sue treated Luke through homeopathy medicine and within days he was starting to get better , within 2 months Luke eczema had completely gone and has never returned.
I am forever grateful to Sue for her help and guidance .

Sue has helped both me and Luke for other matters too such as colds and fevers , stress and tummy upsets , i no longer feel the need to call my doctors for anything , i simply contact Sue :)

I cannot recommend Sue highly enough . If anyone needs help with anything regards their health please contact Sue Homer :

7 day detox nutrition plan

Dear friends
      
 As many of you know , I also practice nutrition and weight management . Many of you (lucky ones!!) got to taste my home made vegan truffles Tuesday evening after class!  I have designed a 7 day detox plan , these truffles are just 1 of the yummy recipes within the program , the following is a little more info and also the recipe for the truffles! 
   
7 day yoga detox nutrition plan

Enerchi-Fitness
…………… Mind & Body in Harmony
 
I am nutrition and weight management specialist , I am passionate about what goes into my body and keeping my body as clean and healthy as I can .I hope to educate and  help others to look and feel great about themselves and to realise that there is no quick fix diet . This plan is a lifelong plan . Today s diets that promise fast weight loss are only ever short lived and are harm full to the  body.

 This nutrition plan is not based on restricting your body , it is aimed at nourishing both mind and body so you are able to function 100% , have tons of energy and feel good about your self.
I have been a vegan for 15 years and try to eat organic as much as I can. A yoga diet consists of clean , vegetarian and nutritious ,plant based  foods such as whole grains , fruits , vegetables, beans , cereals and avoiding fast foods ,tobacco , sugar, meat  and coffee .
You will  experience effortless weight loss , beautiful clear skin , improved digestion and increase in energy levels once you begin this diet plan.
The plan also includes nutritional and lifestyle tips.

If you would like this 7 day menu plan it only costs £5 and if you have any dietary requirements such as intolerances or allergies I can adapt the plan accordingly.
Please email for more details.

Vegan truffles

These yummy truffles are so healthy and good for you , providing energy , B vitamins , helping to lower blood pressure . The almonds are good for your heart because of the antioxidant action of vitamin E and folic acid . These help prevent the build-up of fat in your arteries. They are  high in  levels of six key nutrients – fibre, magnesium, protein, potassium, copper and vitamin E.
The cacao nibs are packed full of antioxidants , a real super food!
Great for your complexion, helping keep your skin moisturised and glowing.
The figs are an excellent source of minerals like calcium, copper, potassium, manganese, iron, selenium and zinc.
Enjoy !

Ingredients :

1 cup dried figs
1 cup dates ( stones removed)
½ cup almonds
 ½ cup cacao nibs ( from Holland and barrat)
 ½ cup shredded unsweetened coconut
4 tbs agave syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Splash of water

Directions

(You could use walnuts or hazelnuts instead of almonds and  goji berries , dried cherries or dates instead of the figs/dates )

1:Blend together the figs,dates  ,vanilla extract until they form a  paste. If it's too thick, add a little water, but only enough for it to just come together. Depending on personal taste, the truffle mixture doesn't need to be totally smooth; some  chunks are fine.
2) Remove the  mixture from your food processor and place it in a large bowl.Blend the almonds or buy already blended almonds.  Roll the mixture into little balls and then coat some with the cacao nibs and some with the shredded coconut and some with nut pieces.

While these could be eaten right away, the truffles are best when cold. For best results place the truffles in the fridge and allow to them harden at least 1 hour.
This recipe makes about 20 Vegan Truffles.

Namaste

July power yoga newsletter


Dear friends

Firstly I d like to say well come back to power yoga ! So good to see you all again and also lovely to meet lots of new yogis to the group too!

For those that are new to class , please be patient with yourselves and know that over time you will become stronger and more aware of your breathing, once you have mastered your breath all the rest will fall into place.

Secondly , after class this week I was asked by the church to inform everyone that when leaving the car park to try to stick to  the one way system which is sign posted to avoid any accidents with people coming into the church for the next class.

Finally as some of you may know I am also a nutritionist and weight management specialist . I am very passionate towards health and i am a firm believer in you are what you eat!  

I have been a vegan for 15 years and try to eat organic as much as I can. A yoga diet consists of clean , vegetarian and nutritious foods such as whole grains , fruits , vegetables, beans , cereals and avoiding fast foods,tobacco , sugar, meat  and coffee .

Eating the right kind of food is an important element in achieving a physical, mental and emotional balance. In yogic literature foods that are beneficial to us are said to be Sattvic, or pure. Impure foods  can upset our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

Therefore I am working on creating a 7 day yoga diet which basically consists of my day to day diet bringing the body into balance not just physically but mentally and emotionally too. I have attached one of my favourite recipes for everyone to enjoy with a list of all its health benefits J

Superfood Quiona salad ( my favourite! )  

 This recipe is one I have at least once a week and contains all the goodness , nutrients and minerals you could wish for!

I cannot stress enough just how good quiona is for the body ! Proteins are essential to the building and repair of the body’s tissues and to basic functions like growth, digestion and excretion. Quinoa has a higher protein content than wheat, barley or other major grains. Quinoa, which contains all 8 of the essential amino acids, it is a complete protein. Quinoa  is a dieter’s dream , high in vitamins, minerals and protein, while low in fat and calories.Quiona helps  lower cholesterol and contains a source of complex carbohydrates. Rich in fiber ,  quinoa can help keep you free of constipation and bloating. Unlike more common grains such as wheat, quinoa is gluten-free and can be enjoyed by people with digestive disorders, like celiac disease. The vitamin B and folate in quinoa also help the liver in its role of eliminating wastes from the body, adding to quinoa’s detoxifying properties. For vegans, people with lactose intolerance or those who are simply looking for non-dairy sources of this vital mineral, quinoa is a flavorful source of plant-derived calcium. Calcium builds and maintains bones and teeth, helps regulate the contraction of the heart, and facilitates nerve and muscle function. Quinoa also contains impressive quantities of potassium, magnesium and zinc, minerals that are crucial for heart, nerve and muscle function.Quiona contains  iron, which helps to deliver oxygen to the blood, boosting energy and brain power. Quinoa’s vitamin B content can help keep the mind sharp, maintain brain volume and stabilize mood.
