    Autumn Wellness and Yoga Retreat at Paperbark Camp 2019 :: Gratitude

Autumn Wellness and Yoga Retreat at Paperbark Camp 2019 :: Gratitude

The invitation for this nourishing retreat was to slow down and listen to the bodies natural intelligence. We inhaled the lemon scented air, we exhaled and released into the spaciousness of the bush surrounds. We explored the teachings of Yoga and Ayurveda through movement and meditation. We swam in the crystal clear water at Hyams beach and relaxed by the fire in the evening gazing at the stars in the night sky.

Thank you to all the fabulous, gracious and powerful women who showed up with open minds and hearts we had a magical experience. Thank you also to Camilla at Paperbark Camp and to Mother Nature for again providing such perfect weather.

Please get in touch if you are interested in future retreats justine@triveda.com.au

The Big Yawn – Seven tips for a great night sleep

How important is sleep? Well, if you consider that sleep deprivation is a form of torture then we should rate it pretty high.

The findings of the National Inquiry into Australia’s Sleep Health in Australia, conducted by the House of Representatives Standing Committee on Health, Aged Care and Sport, were released this week.

Sleep Health Foundation Chair, Professor Dorothy Bruck commented “For the first time in the world a comprehensive government-level document has acknowledged that quality sleep is as important for health as a good diet and adequate exercise.  It also calls for sleep health to be recognised as a national priority”

What is a lack of sleep costing you?

4 out of 10 Australians are not getting enough sleep and scarily in 2016-17 inadequate sleep was estimated to contribute to 3017 deaths in Australia. (As revealed in a 2017 report conducted by Deloitte Access Economics on behalf of the Sleep Health Foundation)

Do you place the same importance of sleep as you do on diet and exercise?

If we think about diet and exercise these are usually things we are investing in, we buy good food we invest in gym membership or Yoga/Pilates classes. So how can we invest in our sleep?

I remember as a kid finding it hard to go to sleep and often lay awake for hours. We are not taught how to relax, so I’ve decided to share seven yogic tips that may help you prepare for a good nights sleep.

#1  – Make going to bed a ritual

This is my #1 tip make sleep sacred, make it something to look forward to something you enjoy

If you are over stimulated, make going to bed a ritual, dim the lights, light some candles, burn some essential oils, drink a […]

What is Self-Care?

Do you practice Self Care?

The wellness savvy crew are familiar with the buzz around self-care. It’s often associated with being selfish or confused with self-maintenance such as having your hair cut or going to the dentist.

Self-care is the way we nourish ourselves on a deeper level. It’s the oxygen mask principle if we take care of ourselves first we are able to care for others.

If we are interested in being the best version of ourselves, in being of service, supporting others and being able to give back, self-care is non-negotiable.

3 minute breathing space

As it is mental health week, I was inspired to make this little video.

This is a 3 minute meditation helpful for stress and anxiety. The first minute you focus on your thoughts, the second minute focus on the breath and the third minute focus on the whole body. Inspired by the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn, founder of MBSR (mindfulness-based stress reduction).

3 Minute Breathing Space

Sal Flynn my mentor taught me this technique and I have found it really helpful, especially when you have busy days and don’t have time for a long meditation.

I hope you enjoy it.

Your Sacred Space

Do you have a sacred space, somewhere you can meditate, center yourself and really listen to your inner spirit? A sacred place will nourish and rejuvenate you. Many people find this refuge in nature.

My morning spiritual practice helps to calm and center me, it creates space in my body and life so that whatever happens during the day I can find space to hold it. Living in an urban environment, I can’t always be in nature, so one way of creating or enhancing a sacred space can be adding an altar. An altar can be as simple and small or as large and complex as you like.

I love my altar pictured above. An altar can be a great catalyst to help you make the transition from the external pressure of your busy life to somewhere you can sit and connect to the timeless aspect of yourself.

I love choosing different things to place on my altar to trigger different aspects of myself. It’s really fun to play around with and helps you start thinking about subtle energies.

Here are some suggestions for putting together a simple altar:

Consciousness/awareness – light a candle or have a lamp on your alter to represent your internal light of awareness. This represents the fire element.

A shell or plant can bring in the water element.

A special stone for connecting to the earth element.

A feather may represent the air element.

Teacher/guru/loved one – you may like to place a photo of someone sacred to you or who inspires you.

Crystals – for healing and energizing and the ether element.

Nature – you can add a plant, fresh flowers, water or herbs to bring nature inside to connect you to the deep energy […]

Vitamin or Pain Killer

‘Your role as a Yoga Health Coach is more like a Vitamin than a Pain Killer’, my mentor explains. In other words, as a health coach I work to support people to optimize their health and prevent disease by  listening to their bodies natural intelligence, rather than react once symptoms occur. Yoga health coaching helps you to read the signs.

This analogy reminded me of when Dr Robert Svoboda (American author and Ayurvedic Doctor) spoke in Sydney last year, he was interviewed by western GP, Dr Mark Donohoe. Dr Donohoe described a visit to the doctor, as like a visit to the smash repairer, the doctor usually deals with the ‘what’ rather than the ‘why’.

Don’t get me wrong, western medicine is incredible, I wouldn’t be here today without it. We need western doctors but we could also learn to understand our bodies and the different dimensions of the body-mind connection, why do we get sick and well again? This is where Yoga Health Coaching comes in, it’s like a users guide to our physiology.

Yoga, Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine all offer wisdom on preventative health, they all teach awareness, how to tune into the whispers of our bodies so we can take the responsibility of our health into our own hands, take our power back and heal ourselves. In other words, living in our bodies and not just our heads. Looking within ourselves rather than externally for someone to ‘fix’ us with a ‘pill in a bill’.

You see, I’ve tried the ‘pill in a bill’ approach before to help with severe migraines. It may work for the short term but doesn’t work in the long term. Not if you care about being able to rely […]
