These things won’t be ✨ glimmers✨ for everyone. They could even be 💥 triggers 💥.
We know some people dislike incense, and others like to leave quietly without chatting.

That’s why it can be helpful to build your own glimmer library. 📚
Start figuring out what YOUR glimmers are.

So if something becomes a trigger, you can look for a glimmer to bring you back to a sense of softness and safety.

A glimmer for us is the way our teachers smile as we arrive. 🥰

Give us a ✨ if any of these are glimmers for you!

Take a moment?
Save it, share it, swipe & reflect on it later.

When we look at what’s going on in the world 🌎 and feel despondent I try to remember that all is not lost.

I perhaps ignorantly, hold space for hope.

I believe in love.

I want us all to remember that joy, play and curiosity ✨ is a necessity to our longevity in trying to make a difference.

Yoga won’t solve all our problems. I’m not naive.

But here I see people who are vulnerable and marginalised accessing practices that are affordable, empowering and nurturing.

We’ve been running not for profit programs for 20 years. This is just the last few months of some of the places we have offered these classes.

I’m so bored by yoga schools and their acknowledgement of country and diversity and inclusion statements on their website doing sweet fuck all.

Try harder.

We can all just do a little and together there could be a groundswell of change.

We just put drop in prices up (no memberships). We appreciate the support we’ve had around this.

We work hard. I work hard. We don’t want to drop our extensive charity work.

So to everyone who read this far, liked or commented on this post, books a class with us or votes with their feet to support us to do this work.

Thankyou

These classes are a source of ✨GLIMMERS✨

They remind me that there are people out there who CARE 🤗Our fabulous trainees choosing to do this work with us (which NFP are YOU doing atmo?)

To our amazing team of teachers and trainers who make it possible.

Big love
Jean

Have you been exploring an Ashtanga practice? 🧘

This is your opportunity to try Ashtanga Mysore Style. The way it is traditionally practised.

What does that mean? 💭
You get to practice at your own pace and try to memorise the sequence while the teacher moves around the room offering individual support to each student.

Everyone is at different stages of their practice and you’ll have the opportunity to focus on what you’re working on.

No expectations. No time restrictions.
Your mat. Your practice. 🙏

This course is a small group of six people, guided by Elena Pinto, a dedicated Ashtanga practitioner with 20 years of experience.

Mon / Wed / Thu for 2 weeks
6:00 - 7:15 am

Starts November 23 to December 3

Glimmers are everywhere. Noticing them takes practice ✨

Trauma therapist Deb Dana, who gave us the term, offers a simple five-step practice: See, Stop, Appreciate, Remember, Share.

Swipe through for how to try each one, on the mat and off it.

Save this for the next time you’re having a rough day.
Glimmers don’t remove life’s difficulties, but they can remind us of life’s beauty.

Start a glimmer library with us 📚
Let’s do the “share” bit together. Drop one glimmer from your week below.

We’ll go first

Student of the month! Meet Rosa 🧡

I started my yoga practice in the Mysore class at The Yoga Space this year. The teachers are experienced and welcoming, and I feel safe and comfortable practising with them. We practise together and learn from each other like a family. Even if you are a beginner, you won’t feel alone — you will always feel supported.

What I find interesting is that even though I practise the same sequence, every practice feels different. Some days I feel focused, while other days my mind wanders. No matter what kind of day I’m having, I keep showing up on the mat and simply notice what comes up.

I like to practise consistently, and after an active yoga practice, I feel calmer, more focused and grounded. I don’t practise for a particular result; instead, I enjoy noticing the changes in my body and learning to accept where I am that day.

It doesn’t matter where you are in your practice. Just get on the mat and show up.
“Come to the mat as you are, and let the practice meet you there.”

- Rosa

Do these glimmers resonate with you?

Share your ✨GLIMMERS ✨ with us in the comments. Sometimes it helps others know what to look for when they are feeling really stuck.

These practices sound simple. But looking for and savouring glimmers is informed by behavioural science, and attentional training. Not only does this deepen your spiritual practice and capacity to pay attention, it can also lift your mood.

So let us know - what glimmers have you noticed recently?

Don’t forget our ONLINE discussion on Glimmers is on tomorrow night!
Wed, Oct 7 at 7:05 pm with Dr Jean Byrne 🧡

✨Glimmers ✨ is a term from Deb Dana, a clinical social worker who works with trauma.

They’re the small, often fleeting moments that bring a sense of safety, joy or connection: sunlight through a window, a friend’s laugh, your shoulders quietly dropping.

They happen all the time. We just don’t always slow down enough to notice.

This October, our classes are exploring glimmers on and off the mat.

What’s a glimmer you’ve noticed this week?
Tell us below 🧡

Practising pregnancy-specific yoga is supportive for you and your baby. Recent research reviews also indicate that yoga can boost your mood when pregnant and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. 🧡

Our 6-week Pregnancy Yoga Course welcomes everyone, whether you are new to yoga or an experienced practitioner.

You’ll learn asana (postures), pranayama (breathing techniques), and lifelong skills you can use throughout your parenting journey. 🥰

Pregnancy and transitioning into parenthood are the great unknown, but yoga + meditation can help you prepare.

This is a beautiful time to come home to yourself and meet like-minded individuals.

Taught by Mother of 2 and experienced pregnancy yoga teacher Dimi. Online + accessible from home.

✨ Starts Sun Nov 1, 10:30 - 11:45 am
