Yoga when you need it

It’s a strange winter we are heading into, one where so many things are uncertain. However there have been a few things I do that have kept me sane over the past year so why change now? Number 1 a daily gratitude practice. That begins when I wake up, it’s early so it’s still dark. Sitting in the dark, just for a few minutes giving gratitude for being where I am in life. For waking up today and greeting with kindness my self right there in that dark space. Gratitude for being who I am, for the people around me

Yoga, a daily practice to clear my head and relieve the stress that builds in my body. Clearing blockages and freeing Prana, honestly that meant nothing to me until I stopped to think why do I do yoga, what exactly am I doing when I make these shapes with my body? Then the answer hit me, I am freeing Prana, becoming unstuck.

A daily meditation practice, some days it’s 1 minute others it can be longer. Honestly I don’t time myself, I just allow this practice to flow and allow myself to be on my mat. To drop into my breath, if I can do nothing else after expressing gratitude then this is what I choose. It helps to ground me, to help me settle. When my mind seems distracted I count my breaths, before long I can visualise my breath coming in, moving around my body inside outside all around me. Then I am at one with my breath, I am breath.

Sea swimming in the Forty Foot, this has been a game changer. There are days the sea calls to me, she sends her signal I can truly feel it. No problem if you think this is barmy and it probably is on a level but there you go. Going to the water, jumping in, feeling my heart pound as my skin tingles with cold. My body is telling me to not stay too long. Wrapping a towel around my cold body when I get out is so comforting.

Testimonials

I was so sad and sorry when my last yoga teacher decided to move home to Italy. I thought I would never find a better teacher & then… I found Chris. She delivers a wonderfully unique class which is a marriage of movement and breath. Her class delivers a complete workout for whatever level you’re at, whilst being easy on the body and calming the mind. I look forward to every class and have never felt stronger or better.

Christine conveys an immense passion for yoga. Her energy is palpable. She also has a discerning understanding of how the body works when practicing yoga. I really enjoy her classes which leave me feeling full of positivity!

D. O’Reilly

Christine is a great yoga teacher and I recommend you give her a go.  She is very spiritual but her love of family and her surroundings come through clearly in her teaching - I have wished so many times to be with her in Dublin on the beach, in the studio, in the park! I have loved her classes via Zoom and her early morning Rise and Shine class has been a fantastic start to my day.  She is very knowledgeable and clearly puts a lot into planning each month and each week. Her classes are well prepared and she takes time to explain positions with variations too so that it is suitable for many levels. Having practised with her for 6 months, she keeps her practice interesting with different themes so that no 2 classes are completely the same.  I am loving my yoga journey with her and look forward to it continuing for many years.

Absolutely love Chris’s yoga classes. It has become a staple part of my week to keep my mind clear and my body right. Chris is a fantastic teacher and I especially enjoy her meditation and reflections during class. Chris herself is such a fantastic person both inside and out and her light is infectious!
