As those of you who are taking my pregnancy classes know, I am a huge fan of using birthing balls during your pregnancy, labour and birth. I strongly advice all students to get a ball as soon as they know that they are pregnant and spend as much time on it as possible. Use your ball at home, relaxing, watching TV, at your desk, at your kitchen table and use that ball to ease any back pressure. Don't forget to use your ball for your daily exercises too!

I’m a fan of Jennifer
Aniston's abs and yoga.
When you combine the two in Yogalates (Yogalates Classes Dublin Tuesday &
Wednesday 18.15), it works our midsections. In this video, learn from Jennifer’s
trainer Mandy a mixture of yoga and tummy sculpting moves featuring three poses
with variations. Ditch the crunches and join a Yogalates Class NOW!!!

For all my diligent Pilates and Yogalates students, here is a link to a great You Tube video 7 minute abs. Introduced to me by my sister Kate this weekend, I was surprised how challenging and comprehensive it was. Tony (the trainer) recommends doing it 3-4 times per week. He gives great instruction and motivation throughout the 7 minute routine. Roll out your mat and give it a try NOW! Let me know what you think…. If this wets your appetite, join me for Yogalates or Pilates classes in Dublin Holistic Centre, Dublin 2. |

New Year’s Resolution: To laugh like the laughing Buddha!I’m sure most of you have come across the funny little round Buddha with the big smiling face. This is the laughing Buddha. In folklore he is admired for his happiness, abundance, and wisdom of contentment. One belief popular in folklore maintains that rubbing his belly brings wealth, good luck, and prosperity. All too often life can become very serious so for the New Year, my only Resolution is to Laugh like the Laughing Buddha and to try to radiate a happy loving energy no matter what is happening. |

Maroons 5’s Adam Levine has recently come out praising the benefits of Yoga. Levine is one of the growing ambassadors of Yoga crediting it to his feel good factor. “Weights made my neck thick, and I would be like, ‘I’m turning into a monster!’ Yoga takes what you have and moulds and sculpts it, which is a much more natural way to look and feel.” The Maroon 5 lead singer is all about his pre-concert ritual.“Playing a show before thousands of people is a highly unnatural state. When I get on the mat and do an hour of yoga before the show, I come out physically relaxed,” |
