Endless Summer: Asia Edition 2012

Today is my last day here in Thailand.
I am off to HK for a couple of hours to meet with DK of Cabrinha and my Good friend Louise from HK/Sweden.

I had such a great and chill two weeks here. With the KTA wrapping up there are only less than 15 kiters in the whole beach. its awesome conditions except for the fact that there is no wind this past few days enough for my small kite.

This last 3 days has been hectic, we figured out that we havent been productive in filming; due to the lack of wind. so we just did the tourist route and did a lot of Cable. Made me progress in my passes again which is siiiick! i just had to get over that initial first handlepass after the big shoulder injury. wohooo! so stooooked about it.

I also got to reflect a lot on my own here in pak nam pran and also since i wake up so early (1 hour time difference makes a lot of sense here.) do some yoga.


I got to spend a lot of time with other people here living like neighbors in a summer house. joy rides, breakfast by the beach and other random things! Its nice to be around people that are truly nice and creative and also supports you in whatever you do. Its such a nice break from being around people who just always bring you down and have issues with people who lives with a lot of luck


PS: Chivalry lives.

• • Then am off the the USA!
    SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA! to be exact. and am really really excited!

    
    

    
    

Happy Autumn Equinox

above all the cool breeze in the air this marks the coming of the holidays

From fall to winter we move into the more "yin", or feminine, half of the year--which is all about turning inside and starting to access your intuition and wisdom that live in the deep, dark parts of yourself.

- The way of the happy woman

Today am gonna celebrate with a practice of Yin Yoga

Yin yoga concentrates on the tissues rather than the muscles, and you stay on the asanas (poses) for a longer period of time.

if you do not have time to go to the studio today check out this virtual retreat for saturday

Pranayama + Asanas + SriSri Yoga: The Art of Living way

SriSri Yoga is more or less like gentle flow, a total opposite of Ashtanga Yoga which i normally practice.
I do yoga as a cross training for all the sports and everything else that i do, and is a great workout of your mind, body and breath with corresponding health benefits too - not just physical health.

find out more about SriSri Yoga discipline by clicking the image above.

Know the importance of the Pranayama (Breathing techniques) and Asanas (Posture) and see how it fits into your lifestyle.

thank god i made it to the Art of Living Refresher and Sri Sri Yoga.
It was fun.relaxing and needed with all the things happening around us.


I was shy to take photos in the beginning of the class (but managed some stolen ones) and did not even dare during process.
too bad i had to leave early for a meeting, i was looking forward to chatting with RIVA, our teacher for the class who came all the way from India
here's a stolen shot of her
