Hooray! Living Your Yoga is now 3 years old! What started with a small group of women practising Yoga with me, in my friend Jane’s kitchen, has now expanded to 7 regular yoga classes a week, monthly Pre & Post Natal Events along with regular Well-Woman Events in both Kenilworth & Stratford-Upon-Avon. Practices taught include Hatha Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga, Well-Woman Yoga Therapy, Pre-Natal and Post-Natal Yoga. Along with these classes, Living Your Yoga provides 1:1’s in both Kenilworth, Stratford-Upon-Avon and Online; weekly Zoom classes for the brilliant staff at Newson Health Clinic; and regular events and corporate classes in and around the community. LYY has also collaborated with other fantastic teachers to raise money for The Menopause Charity.
Another branch to Living Your Yoga is slowly growing as I continue my development and training as a Yoga Therapist. I look forward to sharing more information about this branch of my work in the coming months.
As you read this, I’d love to know in 3 words what 3 things you love about your yoga practice. Do share on my latest Living Your Yoga post on either Instagram or Facebook. I’d love to know what helps you maintain your practice, what keeps you going back to class for more?!

Muddy Stiletto’s Award Winner!
Another huge thank you to all of you in voting for Living Your Yoga as the best Yoga & Pilates Studio in Warwickshire! This week I went along to the Muddy Stilettos’s awards ceremony at Mallory Court Country House Hotel & Spa in Leamington, where I was awarded with my certificate, and also fortunate to meet the organisers and some of the other winners too. This was a great occasion and really uplifting after what has been a tough 18 months or so for so many of us. Receiving this helped me further realise that my little Yoga business is having a positive effect on the community - which is the whole purpose of it’s service. I’ll keep doing my best.
Thank you again!

New Book by Dr Louise Newson: Preparing for the Peri-Menopause and Menopause
The fabulous Dr Louise Newson has written another brilliant book which has gone straight to Number 1 in the Sunday Times non-fiction best seller list! Half of the population will at some point experience the menopause…everybody will know someone that is either peri-menopausal, menopausal or post-menopausal. There are so many symptoms that are experienced during this transformative stage in a woman’s life - it’s worth everyone knowing about it in order to best support the women you love in your life! This book is a penguin paperback and such an easy, informative and brilliant read. I recommend it on the bookshelf in every family home.
Louise is dedicated yoga practitioner and promotes the practice of yoga in the book…she also gives a little mention of Living Your Yoga alongside some other brilliant health and well-being resources :) Thanks Louise!
You can buy her book in all good bookshops and online.
I hope that you’re all gently finding your rhythm as we move into a new term and transition into a new season. Autumn always feels like a time of great change, for some it’s new schools, universities, jobs and relationships…all of these things happen when we let go of something, maybe a situation or a part of ourselves, to make space for something new. Just like in nature as the trees let go of the leaves…I hope whatever changes are occurring, whatever you’re having to let go of to make space for the new, may you let go with softness and ease, and embrace change with joy and an open-heart.
Take lots of care and I hope to see you soon.
Much Love,
Lucy xx
