Friends! Joni Cooke is subbing tonight for me, Jennifer, at 5:45. She's a very intuitive teacher and lifelong movement practitioner and yogi.

Delia starts a month-long series on Saturday January 16th. Go to our website and check out details. She's offering this on a sliding scale. If you've ever been interested in HIIT (high intensity interval training) this is an excellent opportunity to learn from an amazing movement artist and teacher. There's a ton of benefit to this practice that's scientifically validated. https://www.greenroomyoga.ca/sharing-insights

Hello again students and fans of Green Room Yoga. The Government of British Columbia updated restrictions again as of today November 24, this means that effective immediately all in person classes are temporarily suspended. I spoke with a senior health officer today and she said that the Provincial Health Office is clarifying and developing guidelines for indoor group activities. Once this is complete it will be posted and we may be able to open again. Stay tuned.

Our beloved teacher Delia Brett is teaching a workshop on December 12th. Delia is a certified Yoga Shred teacher who has studied with Sadie Nardini. "Yoga Shred... through a committed practice within a relatively short period of time I was able to unwind the negative impacts of years of stress and neglect in my body/mind and unleash a cascade of physical, emotional and energetic shifts within me. These shifts would come to radically transform my life from the inside out." To learn more go to our website. This is an affordable workshop that will help you to establish a unique practice that gets your heart rate going, and for me when I've tried it, supports building mental confidence and well-being. https://www.greenroomyoga.ca/sharing-insights

Question for full moon meditation. How can we be present within the current system, but place our attention on giving birth to a new reality? Isn't that what ...we're born to do? To become conscious creators? To plant the seed of a new dream, to nurture, incubate, birth, and raise it into being. This past year we've seen what happens when we remain asleep, and allow others to dream the dream for us - we collectively create some really ugly monsters and suffer the repercussions. The monsters are on stage in living colour, so let's learn from them. We can transform our consciousness, and contribute to new realities, no matter what hurricane is blowing outside. Just stay focused on what matters, and hold on to your heart See more

Today’s reading. Such a good reminder. Danna Faulds.

Hello! Green Room is not doing too bad during the pandemic, our sweet little space is surviving and I am grateful to be able run this studio for our community when we seriously need self care. Dark rainy winter days are coming! I hope we provide a spot for some warm, safe, body and mind restoration!! We have some clear and updated information based on the BC CDC guidelines. As a business is it important that we are transparent and that this information is easily accessable. http://www.greenroomyoga.ca/etiquette

Our new Fall session has a new class! Many of you have been asking for a restorative class. I have added one with a lovely new teacher. Kristen McCarthy is teaching Restorative on Tuesday nights at 7pm. This will be an online class only. Personally, since this pandemic has started, if I have to take a class online, I have been focussing on taking exclusively LIVE classes or workshops or seminars. It is just more meaningful for me knowing the teacher is there guiding m...e in real-time. You might experience this too. You might like the thought of joining Kristen in real-time every Tuesday night for a Restorative class. She works through the layers of body and mind. Perhaps this could be a tool in your self care kit. Suitable for all abilities. Considering signing up for Kristens class for this 8-week session and see how you feel!! Email me: [email protected].

Hello! Jennifer here. If you are on the Green Room Yoga newsletter list you would have gotten the news that Alix is stepping away from running Green Room Yoga. But she will still be teaching, not to worry! Alix has served the Hastings Sunrise community for more than 10 years with Green Room Yoga, and given us teachers a place to teach with purpose, and students a place to recharge and practise. And, all of us a place to evolve and grow. Seriously! So, I am humbly movin...g into this role of running Green Room Yoga. I am so very honoured to be stepping into the role. Im really excited to take on what Alix has created and continue to serve East Van with this sweet little studio! And now with Zoom, classes are more accessible. I have ALWAYS been so honoured to be a teacher at Green Room with some of the best teachers Ive met. Im looking forward to keeping this space thriving for our community for another 10+ years. Stay tuned!! See more

Today... ANTIDOTES TO FEAR OF DEATH by Rebecca Elson... Sometimes as an antidote To fear of death, I eat the stars. Those nights, lying on my back, I suck them from the quenching dark Til they are all, all inside me, Pepper hot and sharp. Sometimes, instead, I stir myself Into a universe still young, Still warm as blood: No outer space, just space, The light of all the not yet stars Drifting like a bright mist, And all of us, and everything Already there But unconstrained by form. And sometime its enough To lie down here on earth Beside our long ancestral bones: To walk across the cobble fields Of our discarded skulls, Each like a treasure, like a chrysalis, Thinking: whatever left these husks Flew off on bright wings.

Go gently today, Dont hurry or think about the next thing. Walk with the quiet trees. Can you believe how brave they are - how kind? Model your life after theirs.... Blow kisses at yourself in the mirror especially when you think youve messed up. Forgive yourself for not meeting your unreasonable expectations. You are human. Praise fresh air, Clean water, Good dogs. Spin something from joy. Open a window, even if its cold outside. Sit. Close your eyes. Breathe. Allow the river of it all to pulse through eyelashes, Fingertips, Bare toes. Breathe in, Breathe out. Breathe until you feel your bigness, Until the sun rises in your veins. Breathe until you stop needing anything to be different. The Cure For it All. A poem by Julia Fehrenbacher. See more
