Thursday, November 13, 2014. Even though I do like their 'stuff', right now I'd like to completely expunge the word 'Ikea' from my life! A couple of times I've had to go to the Ikea store on the way into Brisbane, and it's just a nightmare! I don't know why, but whenever I've been there for a short while I just want to turn around and escape, run straight home without passing Go, or doing whatever else it was I was supposed to be doing that day! As despite what the builder said I just know this will not ...

Thursday, June 04, 2015. Punchy title goes here! Didn't know if I was going to get to yoga class this morning . My pussycat Miss Squiggle used to be really good at coming back inside when I called her, but - I think she's started exploring a bit further afield (over the fence into the next garden! So maybe she's out of earshot. Giving her the benefit of the doubt here! Look at her - butter wouldn't melt in her mouth! Oh well, baby steps (as usual! Oh, and I'm still having a lovely time at choir / singing!

Thursday, January 08, 2015. Having a lovely time down in Sydney - late Christmas celebrations with family! Today we went into the city to see an exhibition, and decided to go via ferry. What a wonderful experience - I'd forgotten how I used to love that when I lived in Sydney . Here are some photos . Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Sunday, September 07, 2014. Exciting times . :). Very exciting times for me at the moment! First of all, my meditation teacher, Maharaji is coming to Australia again. He's doing a 2 day event at Amaroo (near Ipswich) next weekend, and the following weekend he is speaking in Melbourne at the UN International day of Peace celebrations . I'm going to both and I know it will be just fantastic! Will just have to contain my excitement and anticipation for all of this . It is coming soon! Links to this post.

journeys: Finally, back to class
http://susiegb.blogspot.com/2015/03/finally-back-to-class.html
Sunday, March 01, 2015. Finally, back to class. I'm not even going to say/guess how long it is since I've been to a class at the (any! Shala A loong time, far too long! Some of that because of sickness or visitors etc, sometimes because of monkey mindtrips! And he told me to take it easy . I certainly had to do that! Standing was reasonably ok, but once we'd got to the seated poses and all those vinyasas, my arms got more and more tired! It's unbelievable how quickly strength goes! Hopefully this will ge...

Saturday, February 21, 2015. Experiencing 'interesting' weather here! My local beach has gone from this:. A cyclone (Marcia) came across the mid-Queensland Coast yesterday and careered its way down south, while at the same time a 'rain depression' was hovering over the northern NSW coast (ie the Byron coast, where I live! Yesterday the local SES (State Emergency Service) came to everyone on our street, handing out information on what to do if we had to evacuate! Links to this post. A day of cooking.

Tuesday, May 19, 2015. Singing again at last! Last night I got to start going to choir practice at last! Oh yes, I did the audition 2-3 weeks ago and passed! Very relieved - and in fact, in the end I think it was really good for me to go through this experience. The actual audition was more like a singing lesson, and it was really good for me to be able to sing in front of a teacher, and not sort of freeze up or shrivel away! Very happy about it all! Posted using BlogPress from my iPad Air. Ashtanga Room...

Saturday, December 06, 2014. Yoga and other stuff! I had an amazing yoga practice this afternoon. Amazing only to someone like me of course, but who cares! I could bind on both sides in Mari B (haven't been able to bind on 1st side for about 3-4 years). Binding suddenly appeared to be a future possibility again on 1st side of Mari C, and very close on 2nd side. And I could straighten my legs in Navasana! It was just such an enjoyable day . They're planning on actually having a bookclub meeting here n...

Tuesday, April 28, 2015. Marichyasana D and choirs! Christian, one of the teachers at the Ashtanga Shala in Byron, gave me some help/advice in Marichyasana D yesterday, and I ended up with my fingers touching on one side . Very amazing! Of course I can't do it on my own, but the advice/pointers he gave me certainly helped me today without assistance, and I begin to believe that I really will be able to do it one day! Which was part of his advice - don't strain and struggle! So that was nice! Dena Kinsber...
