Dharma Mittra's workshop in London - Yoga photography

2017-03-18T22:15:00.003+02:00

Yoga photography - Dharma Mittra's workshop in London

Few weeks ago I had the wonderful opportunity to practice at and photograph the world renowned
and much-loved Sri Dharma Mittra during his workshop in London.

I was very curios about him, his classes, yogic techniques and knowledge. For my surprise he was

full of jokes, humor and joyfulness and made everything look easy.

Thanks to Indaba London who organised and allowed me to photograph part of this yoga event.

I'm so happy for this experience.

Here are some of the photos I took. Enjoy!

Morning Gloryville in London

Yoga Photography at Morning Gloryville - the Shard - London

Every day you should do something for the first time. And in London you can do this easily.

For me, today was the first time I went to Morning Gloryville.

I woke up at 4:40 in the morning in order to be at the Shard at 6 :D

Waking up at this hour for me is quite a big achievement, and it was worth the effort.

It was a very interesting experience, just as I arrived there, happy and colourfully dressed people welcomed me warmly,
and helped others with any info or painted their face beautifully.

The music was great, Mark Knight prepared a nice set, everybody was dancing like crazy!

There were other activities like massage, face painting, yoga and acro yoga with @acroyogadance.
The reason of my presence there, of course yoga photography :)

So here I share with you some of the photos I took, hope they will inspire you to yoga or party :)

what I've done lately

2017-03-08T01:04:00.000+02:00

Hi there,

It has been a long time since I've posted here on my blog... I had quite a few life changes that kept me

busy in the last months and also because of the easiness of posting on Instagram and Facebook :)

So what happened? While I was finishing my yoga teacher training in November I found out that we

have the opportunity to move to London and so we did.

We had December and January to decide, and arrange everything, and now surprise!!! we are in London.

Hopefully now that we are starting to settle in, I'll be more active on blogging, if not you can always

find me on Instagram and Facebook.

Cafe Begur

2016-09-26T15:13:00.001+03:00

We’ve recently visited Begur twice.

During our first trip we stumbled upon this great place in the old city center called CafeBegur.

It was time for dessert, by the time we got there, so we made sure check out some of their finest.

We not only enjoyed our treats but the place itself, as it had an “oriental” design and feel to it.

Next time we got to Begur we wanted to share the experience so we brought along two friends and

stayed for lunch. We weren’t disappointed, lunch was great, and our friends shared the same opinion.
Here are some pics I took.

Simon Borg-Olivier in Barcelona

I thought of sharing a few pictures I took at the workshop of Simon Borg-Olivier,

this summer in Barcelona.

I'm really happy that I had the opportunity to practice, take photos and learn great insights from him.

I had such a great time, that I'm sure I wont miss any opportunity to practice at his events next time

he'll be around.

Last day of summer at Cap de Creus

2016-09-01T21:45:00.001+03:00

We got to the lighthouse at Cap de Creus in the afternoon of the last day of the summer.

We enjoyed a vegetarian Neapolitan macaroni and a vegetarian curry dish.

Right when we were about to finish, a concert started and went on into the sunset.

It turns out that every time we get here, the day becomes somewhat special.

today

2016-08-20T23:39:00.001+03:00

Today we went to the Gracia neighborhood, it's our favorite one in Barcelona, especially this week,
since it's all nicely decorated for the 'Festes de Gracia'.

We found a new vegan shop and bought some tiramisu and cookies, ate some vegetarian empanadas,
did some shopping from a tibetan store, and headed home on an electric scooter, shot some pics for
some clothes, reorganized the house, and then sat back and relaxed.

Quite a busy day, but fun for sure!

weekend with Andrei Ram

2016-05-10T16:20:00.000+03:00

This Easter was a bit different for me. I had spent the weekend attending the yoga teachers training at

the new YogaOne Mandri studio. We had an intense weekend with yoga classes held by Andrei Ram

and live music and kirtan with Ravi Ramoneda :) It was quite an interesting experience, that's why

I'm thought of writing this post to share it with you.

The practice was soft and profound and the satsangs were incredible.

If you have the opportunity I sincerely recommend you to take a class or course with him. He has a

lot to teach us. You can find a lot of insights on his twitter, check it out:

my secret garden

2016-05-09T12:01:00.001+03:00

Lately I have been searching for quiet places with nature and fresh air in the crazy Barcelona, where I could walk

and relax a bit and enjoy beautiful views, and I was more than happy to actually find what I was looking for. These

photos were taken in one of the parks in Montjuic, and I am sure I'll be visiting these parks pretty often in the

upcoming weeks.

I'm wearing these super comfy clothes by rohnisch.

108 in yoga

2016-05-08T19:03:00.003+03:00

Have you ever asked wondered why 108 is a sacred number in yoga, but not only in yoga?

I certainly have, when I was chanting mantras, when I bought my mala, when I did 108 sun salutations… The are a lot of

different answers to this question, in conclusion it is a sacred number with a lot of meanings.

So I’ve put together a list of meanings that I have found … maybe you'll resonate with some of them :)

According to yogic tradition, there are 108 pithas, or sacred sites, throughout India, 108 Upanishads, texts of the wisdom of the ancient sages, 108 marma points, or sacred places of the body. There are 108 stages on the journey of the human soul. Pranayama gives the possibility of enlightenment with taking only 108 breaths a day, while in deep meditation.
In Sanskrit alphabet: There are 54 letters in the Sanskrit alphabet. Each has masculine and feminine, shiva and shakti. 54 times 2 is 108.
According to Buddhism tradition there are 108 feelings. An individual has 108 chances (lifetimes) to eliminate his egos and transcend the material world.
Sun and Earth: The diameter of the Sun is 108 times the diameter of the Earth. The distance from the Sun to the Earth is 108 times the diameter of the Sun.
Moon and Earth: The average distance of the Moon from the Earth is 108 times the diameter of the Moon.
Silver and the moon: In astrology, the metal silver is said to represent the moon. The atomic weight of silver is 108.
Islam: The number 108 is used in Islam to refer to God.
Jain: In the Jain religion, 108 are the combined virtues of five categories of holy ones, including 12, 8, 36, 25, and 27 virtues respectively.
Sikh: The Sikh tradition has a mala of 108 knots tied in a string of wool, rather than beads.
Buddhism: Some Buddhists carve 108 small Buddhas on a walnut for good luck. Some ring a bell 108 times to celebrate a new year. There are said to be 108 virtues to cultivate and 108 defilements to avoid.
Chinese: The Chinese Buddhists and Taoists use a 108 bead mala, which is called su-chu, and has three dividing beads, so the mala is divided into three parts of 36 each. Chinese astrology says that there are 108 sacred stars.
Stages of the soul: Said that Atman, the human soul or center goes through 108 stages on the journey.
Meru: This is a larger bead, not part of the 108. It is not tied in the sequence of the other beads. It is the quiding bead, the one that marks the beginning and end of the mala.
Dance: There are 108 forms of dance in the Indian traditions.
Praiseworthy souls: There are 108 qualities of praiseworthy souls.
First man in space: The first manned space flight lasted 108 minutes, and was on April 12, 1961 by Yuri Gagarin, a Soviet cosmonaut.
1, 0, and 8: Some say that 1 stands for God or higher Truth, 0 stands for emptiness or completeness in spiritual practice, and 8 stands for infinity or eternity.

So, the significance of 108 is open to interpretation :)

This Week’s - Places To Be - Photo Diary - Taste All Those Market

2016-04-04T18:01:00.000+03:00

Hi there

I love the spring feeling that's in the city right now!

Markets are more fun with a better weather :)

Here are some pics from Taste All Those Market held in the University garden this weekend.

A market based on a sustainable idea of seasoned, local food, that combines a Farmer Market with Street Food :)

I went yesterday after my yoga tt. course together with my boyfriend so we could buy some eco and fresh food

directly from the producers. Apart from that, we tasted some goodies like alcachofas and vegan brownies and of course he bought some fresh coffee beans.

So this is yet another place to be in Barcelona, can't wait for more.

Have a beautiful week everyone :)
