Finding Your Happy at Yoga House
*|MC:SUBJECT|**|MC_PREVIEW_TEXT|*
Dear Yogis,
In this week’s newsletter we look at the importance of staying healthy to be happy.
Being Happy and being Healthy go hand in hand, it is hard to have one without the other. But they can be hard to maintain.
You can read more below, with a workshop to help.
At Yoga House we have also added to our schedule across both studios with some new classes in studio and online so you have more choices and chances to practice. We have a great juice cleanse from Presscription juices (with a discount on purchases!). We also have two wonderful workshops coming up to help your stress levels and provide some much needed relaxation. And a reminder of our Staying Safe Covid measures so we can serve our community.
If the news is getting you down, we have some recommendations to take you away and escape into music, film and literature….
Finally, we share the Lotus Mudra with you. This is one of the happiest of yoga mudras. It helps you to float above the dark and murky that may be below.
So happy reading, we do hope you find something helpful in this newsletter.
PRESSCRIPTION JUICES SUPER HEALTHY, SUPER TASTY JUICE CLEANSES
Thank you to everyone that has asked about our juice cleanses on IG stories.
We’ve been trying different cleanses over the last few months from Presscription Juices and they are delicious, refreshing and super healthy.
The juices are formulated using old-press machines and are 100% raw and unpasteurised, you can choose your cleanse programme HERE. There are different types to suit your lifestyle and tastes. We thought it was super great and tried a few, from morning cleanses to 1, 3 or 7 day cleanses.
The shots are also delicious and give you a great, smooth kick up during the day. We can also highly recommend the almond milk – delicious! And cacao cure, the best chocolate milk ever….(without dairy or refined sugar).
It’s a wonderful way to cleanse, filter and look after your body, skin and organs as we get into the colder season.
They deliver real quick and the guide that comes with the juices are really useful and informative.
We’ve secured a 15% discount on all cleanses with Presscription Juices using code yogahouse15 at checkout.

WE ARE STAYING SAFE & STAYING OPEN
Some of you may have missed our update last week on what the change in London Tiers mean for your yoga practice. As we remain Covid Secure with our measures in place (above), we are able to remain open and serve our community.
Few symbols are as powerful in the yogic tradition as the lotus—the beautiful water flower that grows in the mud and always reaches toward the sun. Just like how the lotus petals are unaffected by the mud and murk, so too can your heart be open and untarnished by the negativity around you.
Begin Padma Mudra with the palms in Anjali Mudra (Prayer), and then allow your fingertips to flower open like the petals of the lotus.
The thumbs and pinkies remain connected to their counterparts, but the other fingers and can pulsate open and closed to mirror the constant flowing nature of unconditional love.
And finally…..
Our IG Live sessions have been sooo great and informative, we’ve got lots more coming up including bandhas with Imir & sound healing with Junior.
You can find our past sessions including meditation, gong and crystal bowls, yoga for runners, crystal healing and many more to watch and participate with on our IG Live Sessions.
