As I spent yesterday in a yoga workshop, aspiring to be a’ yogini’, I reflect on what yoga means to me. I was introduced to yoga over thirty years ago and since that time I have worked on and off at quieting my mind. This is a hard thing to do.

I have been in ‘slug mode’ for two whole weeks. I haven’t cooked a dinner, made a bed, dealt with clients or hardly even touched my computer. My sweetie and I have been on holidays, and I have surprised myself at how well suited I am at being a slug. I am a natural!!!

Have you ever been involved in a project that you are totally enlisted in, you believe in and you are excited about? Isn’t it funny how time and energy become available when we are ‘charged’ about a project. The creative juices begin to flow and hours pass but it only seems like minutes.

As I sit at the Fallowfield train station waiting to be rescued by CAA, I can’t help but contemplate the dualities of life. I have been so pleased to learn that I have been accepted to speak on a cruise ship this winter. The joy, challenge and thought of a new adventure have pumped my adrenaline.
