📣 One of my two Ashtanga Yoga Workshops for Ash

📣 One of my two Ashtanga Yoga Workshops for Ashtangis is coming up in Groningen soon, on May 25!

Come join me for a day aimed to support your Ashtanga Yoga practice, motivation, perspective and know-how, on and off your mat.

A study day with me is an opportunity to take space to nourish yourself and your practice. For some it is a deep dive into self-study. For others, it’s a time to gently unfold and soak up the nuggets of inspiration and the magic of the group energy.

One of the benefits of setting this time apart for your study, away from your regular routine, is that we have the possibility to have a fresh look onto what we are doing and why, from a more conscious place. This new found inspiration and perspective we can then integrate into our practice and our everyday lives.

➡ The workshop Day on May 25 is all about backbends:

During this comprehensive workshop day we will deeply explore backbends (build up to, moderations, including backbends of the second series, how to approach drop-backs) and the dhatus (the seven tissue layers that nourishment has to pass through adequately to nourish us).

✅ Suitable for all Ashtanga Practitioners.

Good to know: The other Ashtanga Workshop Day this year in Groningen on 12 October is all about a harmonious intermediate series for all.

➡ Read more about these special workshop days with me in Groningen through the link in bio called "2024 Ashtanga Workshops for Ashtangis"

In case of any questions or doubts whether it's suitable for me, PM me or email to info@bhumiyoga.nl

So much looking forward to coming together for these special and inspirational workshop days sharing with community 💛

Tomorrow is the full moon in scorpio, at 7:48am CE

Tomorrow is the full moon in scorpio, at 7:48am CET 🌕

I'm by far no astrologer😁 ...so quoting @chaninicholas here:

"This lunation brings an opportunity to delve into our internal gutters and compost anything that can be transformed. Because the Moon is in its fall in this sign, there’s an added intensity to this moment. But there’s more: This particular Full Moon is also square Pluto — the planet of power, mystery, and underworld journeys — which means it will cast its light beneath the surface and illuminate our personal depths. There may be creepy-crawly things down there, but there’s gold too..."

Sounds like a "fun" time, some may think now.

In any way, a potent time to take down the speed out of life for a moment to establish space for yourself.

In the Ashtanga Yoga tradition, there is no Mysore Yoga practice on days of full and new moon.

Instead join me for a rejuvenating and nourishing guided Moon Sequence (Chandra Krama) practice tomorrow. Suitable for all levels.

When:
•Tomorrow, Wednesday, 24 April
•7.00-8.30h CET

Where:
•At the yoga school
•Or online from the comfort of your home

The 3 week Reset Yourself - Restorative Pranayama

The 3 week Reset Yourself - Restorative Pranayama and Yoga program is a wrap!

Oh, how I enjoy sharing about these powerful and beneficial practices. (My face says it all)

Thank you everyone who joined this program!

Loved your questions and through them witnessing how you started to apply and integrate these strategies in your life. 5-10min a day is enough for results and to experience a more peaceful experience going through life.

It’s about regular practice, not about spending 60 or 90 minutes once a week, but 5-10min daily. You got this!

****
My days are pretty filled these weeks, so I myself keep my cup filled tending to my practices. (Where would I be without them?)

And I love all that’s in my life:
•family and friends - feeling blessed 💕
•time marveling at the stars from our garden ✨
•holding space for our amazing community in our Ashtanga Mysore Yoga classes every weekday morning 🧘🏽‍♂️🧘🏼‍♀️🧡
•more 1-on-1s and Ayurveda consultations in Groningen, Eenrum & online 🧡
•preparing for upcoming workshops:
➡️ Ashtanga Workshop day in Groningen 29 May (more info thru link in bio)
➡️ Workshop Weekend in Emden @yogakula.emden 1&2 June
•busy with the launch phase of my online coaching program

Hope to see you soon ☺️
Good night,
Maxi

My next retreat is coming up end September (early

My next retreat is coming up end September (early bird pricing ends 26 April). September is a time when a lot of us are fully immersed (and some very caught up) in the business of life. So, it’s a great time to take conscious space for yourself and go on a retreat.

A retreat allows you to take full space for yourself without the daily chores and responsibilties that you otherwise have to tend to. A wonderful place to take root in yourself, nourish yourself what you need and return home with new inspiration and perspectives.

My 4 Day Ashtanga Yoga and Ayurveda retreat is a time to nourish yourself exactly what you need.

🫶 Suitable and beneficial for complete beginners as well as seasoned practitioners of yoga.

Dates: 26-29 September
Where: The sweet and cozy Oerboerderij in Twente, NL, surrounded by greenery in a forest.
Rooms: Single room (with shower)

🫶Early bird pricing ends 26 April.

➡️Read all about it and how Dagbjørt @daggiesundaygirl experienced my last retreat in the slides.

Feel a yes?
➡️Book in for this retreat through the link in bio.

In case of any questions, just let me know!

I’d be honored to welcome you to my next retreat.

It’s a bit quieter here lately. Because lots is happening and developing behind the scenes 🌱💫

I’m just beyond grateful and happy for the work I do. Helping people feel better in themselves through yoga and Ayurveda.

Every weekday morning when I enter our shala for Ashtanga Mysore Yoga I’m just in awe. Holding space for people building an intentional yoga practice and guiding them on their path is something I don’t take for granted. It’s really special to be a part of people’s yoga journey and witness powerful (small as big) transformations along this process. Some practitioners I have guided for over a decade. Beautiful to see how yoga is integrated in their life.

Last Monday the 3 week Reset Yourself program started. It just makes me so happy to share about effective strategies to relieve stress and a big bonus: Having such a wonderful group joining.

Then, I have also set up my practice space in Eenrum, where I live.

Did you know that you can book a 1:1 or trajectory with me or an Ayurvedic Consultation? This is possible in Groningen, in Eenrum and also online.

I still have some open spots to work with new clients before the summer. Contact me to know more.

And… so exciting… my online program is built 🥳 this has been a labor of love and I’m proud it’s up. Now it’s in launch phase…. Which for me is probably the process where I can learn and grow the most (and overcome some outdated beliefs). Yep, you’ll hear more about my program soon!!

And meanwhile enjoying my own practice and enjoying life, sharing time with family and friends. Reconnecting to things that give me joy 💃🏼

Upcoming opportunities to study with me in person:
🧘🏽‍♀️every weekday morning in our Ashtanga Mysore Yoga classes (link in bio)
🧘🏼 25/5 Ashtanga Yoga Inspiration Day for all Ashtangis (link in bio)
🧘🏼‍♀️ 26-29/9 Ashtanga & Ayurveda Retreat in Twente (early bird until 26/4)

See you soon 💫

Thank you for this 📸 @mysore.yogic.photos

🌑 New moon coming up on Monday, April 8 Tradit

🌑 New moon coming up on Monday, April 8

Traditionally, there is no Ashtanga Mysore Yoga practice on days of full and new moon. On these days, I'm offering the much loved Chandra Krama (Moon Sequence) and gentle pranayama. All can join.

Chandra Krama, or the Moon Sequence, is an alternative therapeutic Vinyasa Krama sequence accessible to students of all traditions, whether young or old. It invites the release of unnecessary tension while fostering a deeper connection of body, soul and mind. The practice encourages the practitioner to accept and honour what is instead of wanting to be or go somewhere, fostering a deep sense of peace.

All levels can join this practice.

When:
8 April, 7.00-8.30h CET

You can join at the yoga school or live-online from the comfort of your home.

✅ Save your space through the schedule link in bio.

See you Monday!

Do you have a demanding life, juggling a myriad of

Do you have a demanding life, juggling a myriad of roles at the same time? Perhaps you are managing a bustling household and /or an ambitious career, striving for success? But you also feel like there is a catch.

You sometimes feel like drowning in the relentless demands of your career and personal life, striving for excellence while balancing so much on your plate.

You often push over the experience of overwhelm and stress with another coffee or cookie to make it through the day, maybe you frequently engage in high intensity exercise to numb yourself or you regularly find yourself binge-watching on netflix at the end of a demanding day, and sometimes you feel it’s all too much?

If you recognise yourself in the above, then join me for my upcoming three week live- online immersive workshop series called Reset Yourself.

This program is designed to equip you with the knowledge and confidence to effectively implement key practices to help you break free from the shackles of stress and overwhelm and restore inner balance. (For more info about the content see slide 6.)

➡ We meet three consecutive Mondays starting April 8, at 19.30-21.30h CET, live online over zoom.
If you can’t attend the live meetings, recordings are available, too.

➡ Learn more about this program, Maxi (your teacher) and sign up through the first link in bio.

Looking forward to support you relieve your stress with this program!

🎙A new episode of the Bhumi Yoga Talks is here.

🎙A new episode of the Bhumi Yoga Talks is here.

In this talk I share a little bit about what it’s like to go and practice in Mysore. Many of you have asked me about this, so I decided to talk a little about it.

In this new episode of the Bhumi Yoga talks, I share a little bit about:

•The shala in Mysore (Sharath Yoga Centre)
•The process of applying for a spot at the shala
•That you can now get a great cappuccino in Gokulam in various places.
•Why it is so special to practice in Mysore with Sharath
•That going to Mysore comes with compromises (family, finances, time...).

In the end I also share a little bit of my personal experience and a little of what I uncovered within myself during my last trip.

While listening to this talk please bear in mind that this talk was recorded right after I taught our full primary series today... after teaching a full primary I am not all that "fresh: anymore 🙂

Also keep in mind that we had about 20 minutes for this talk before we had to clear the room as the next class was going to set up soon...

There is a lot more that can be said about going to Mysore than what is said in this talk...

Even though so much more could be said about going to Mysore, and I will probably do that at some point in the future, I still wanted to share this talk as I feel it can be insightful to some of you.

Listen to it through the "Bhumi Yoga Talks" link in bio (when opening the link, the second to last link on the list).

Enjoy!

See you back at practice tomorrow!
xx, Maxi
