Why I took a 21 day yoga challenge

Yoga and I have had an ebb and flow relationship.

I have danced on and off with yoga for about 8 years now but it wasn’t until moving to Melbourne that I committed to a more regular practice.

Two years ago when I started working for international yoga brand lululemon athletica, I thought that yoga might finally stick. This was it, be default I would become a yogi for life. Little did I know, embarking on a 21 day challenge would be the transformative experience I needed.

So how did the transformation unfold?

Turning the corner on an eating disorder through yoga | Rosie McCaughey

You may recall we recently featured Rosie’s own studio – Rise Yoga and Wellness in our Bliss Spaces section of the blog. Today we feature Rosie’s very personal and authentic account of her journey from injury and illness to Director of a yoga studio…

I preface this with the acknowledgement that this is one of the hardest things to be able to put in writing, and to put out there for the public eye.

We Love: Rise Yoga

December 22, 2014

Rise Yoga is an urban oasis tucked away above the bustling Bridge Road in the Melbourne inner city suburb of Richmond. Our decision to feature this lovely studio, was sparked after experiencing one of their Power Flow classes on a balmy Friday afternoon back in November.

As you ascend the stairs to the studio, you are greeted by a light and airy reception come chill out area, which echoes that of a New York loft. The natural light filters through to the heated studio, owned by the gorgeous Rosie McCaughey. Rosie has an extensive background which includes both Physiotherapy and clinical Pilates so starting a yoga studio was a natural progression.

Yoga Poses to spice up the bedroom – with Cveta of yoga loft

December 3, 2014

OK. There’s no question of doubt in my mind: First, Yoga IS sexy.

We wear skin tight yoga outfits, breathe deeply, in the case of hot power vinyasa, build up sweat in a room full of people, and with some the feelings we experience in some poses, whether they are inversions, strong arm balances or even the fun of partner or acro yoga, it’s no wonder yoga can leave us feeling a little (or a lot) turned on!

We Love: One Hot Yoga | One Hot Pilates

November 27, 2014

Let me introduce you to my latest bliss space addition – One Hot Yoga and now One Hot Pilates.

Since ‘discovering’ this little beauty in the past couple of weeks, I often find myself asking –

One Hot where have you been all my life?

Lush, sexy, muted earthy tones, the coolness of the raw concrete under foot, you can only help but feel the stillness as you walk through the doors of the One Hot Yoga studios.

The marriage of yoga, Pilates and refined architectural interiors is a sensory candy overload – a match made in heaven!
