5th December 2011

Large gaps in between entries at the moment due to a very hectic schedule and the post emotional state of my friend Lisa's death. Life though is good - the girls are well and Melodie and I even managed a yoga session together this weekend. Melodie skied and Clementine wenton the lunge... it is finally snowing here! Life over the last couple of weeks....FRANTIC! Annecy filming, London filming and web site meetings, Winter season classes starting, a workshop, life in general, help at the school, Christmas shopping and somewhere in the midst of that my own practise... long days but all is looking amazingly bright and incredibly not stressed at all! My niece Hollie is having her naming ceremony today to officially welcome her to the family - my Brother and wife adopted her earlier this year and she is gorgeous - a great cousin foor my girls and a sweet sister to Herbie. All the family are well and busy.... and did I mention its snowing! Christian celebrated his 62nd birthday on 17th and we walked up to the Lac de Sassiere (a rare treat at this time of year - see photo) and now we are all looking forward to some family skiing outings - this Wednesday is the plan.... watch this space....namaste

Life has moved into a pace I can only call frantic and the days are getting longer and nights shorter – ie I am eating into the night time hours to catch up on things I just have not been able to cram into the spaces of time I have. Life has changed rather radically as I moved out familiar surroundings and into a new home, as I started to share my children’s time with my husband and we both got used to being apart after 14 years together, as the Winter season has kicked in a pace with new students, rooms, time schedules and as all sorts of new projects get under way…… But despite all the change, late nights, tiring days there a few amazing and beautiful things that are surfacing and that make me realise a) I have made totally the right decision to act on the deepest truths within me and b) that I am extremely lucky to have the life I have. My relationship with my ex is

This is the story of a Girl

THIS IS THE STORY OF AN ORDINARY GIRL MY BODY, MY BATTLE HAVE YOU HAVE HAD THE FEELING THAT YOU WERE NOT IN THE RIGHT BODY? TO NOT BE STANDING IN YOUR FULL NATURAL ESSENCE? Have you ever had the feeling or have the feeling that you are burying, hiding who you are? Let me explain ….. As a young girl I was always   a bit “too big” in all senses of the word – too tall, too large, too much. I always felt a bit different, I spoke loudly, I was always loud, always “too much”. I never felt like I looked like or acted like the other “little girls”.   I went o my ballet class just like the other girls and just like them dreamt of being a ballet dancer on the big stage, graceful and full of light elegance. In my head I was that beautiful ballet dancer, the reality was very different. Ballet dancer in the skin of a “big fat cow”! As a young girl I read a book called “Clumsy Clara”…. An extremely clumsy young girl. One day she finds fairies in her garden

But in the March edition of Esprit Yoga you can see me doing the advanced sequence of poses and preparation for mermaid pose. I hope you like them - go and buy the magazine if you are in France...... Life continues to be manic as I progress with the festival, web site, the school holidays (thank god for Mélodie and her independance and the amazing Village des Enfants in Val) ..... can I get any busier? No; But is it all well and lenty of fun projects afoot too Who said being a yogini was about meditating and chilling out all the time? I have never been busier or happier!
