I enjoyed the glamour and escapism of Brigerton, where even the wisteria looked beautiful. This reminded me of a video I made around the time my cat went missing in June. It’s a yin inspire yoga wheel mish mash, feeling out what I needed at the time. I was so preoccupied trying to find Cici, and heart broken because cause she never came home. That and the violence in the US because of the murder of George Floyd. All those little black squares. A malaise. As a result, I lost the drive to promote online yoga classes, as I had planned to do during the summer, and even my garden went to shight!

Now is the time of the year to start planning the beautiful things in your garden: it’s time to order seeds, no need to clear old growth just yet (creatures could be living there) and it’s a good time to investigate heritage varieties of fruit trees perhaps. Basically it’s time to go shopping and seed swapping.

With all that in mind, and the general feeling of loneliness but Spring and imbolc about, I’m offering a 30 minute Sunday morning gentlish yoga class during lockdown, free for friends. It’s at 10am sharp every week during this time. If you want to give a little back after the class, I’ve set up an idonate page www.idonate.ie/Yogaforfriends to raise funds for Woman’s Aid, Dublin Simon Community and Bodywhys. PM for info and I’d love to see you there. Class limited to 18 for now 🙏🏻

I set out to make a swirling Celtic art tribute, inspired by the Newgrange entrance stone for the Winter Solstice. It didn’t quite cut it so I felt a mandala pattern, representing the circular sequence of life might be more fitting. This evolved into a snowflake pattern I made at dawn yesterday, while virtually watching the light stream into Newgrange. There is no ‘why’ to making these patterns. It’s a compulsion and perhaps it’s my way of simply grounding down. I feel like today marks the end of a difficult chapter and look forward to the lengthening of days. Happy solstice! #light #darkness #cycles #wintersolstice #newbeginnings

THE SUNDAY BAKE: Today’s sour dough and some pre

THE SUNDAY BAKE: Today’s sour dough and some previous efforts. This is my fifth attempt and I think I’ve actually nailed it.

My top tips:
Hottest oven setting
Prove overnight in the fridge and then bring to room temperature
Knock it back and prove again
Use a dough hook of a food processor if your hands get sore (it’s hard work on the wrists)
Use thread to score the “skin”
Let a “skin” form before you score
Use stream in the oven for half the time
Preheat the oven
Use a flour dredger for an even spread of flour on the surface
Use a razer blade or very sharp knife
Work quickly when scoring #sourdoughbread #sourdoughstarter #sourdoughbaking #sourdough #thesundaybake #practiceandalliscoming #yogasupportshealth

THE SUNDAY BAKE. It's a no-bake Sunday Bake this

THE SUNDAY BAKE. It's a no-bake Sunday Bake this week and these energy balls are super handy for a back-to-school snack. This is less of a recipe and more of a guide for you to mix and match whatever you fancy to make your own. Website still being made by the way, in case you were wondering like 😊

100g walnuts or pecan nuts
75g dates or raisins
1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds
1 tablespoon cocoa nibs or cocoa powder
1 tablespoon maple syrup, agave syrup or honey
2 tablespoon almond, cashew or peanut butter
25g decicated coconut

Method:
1. Blitz the nuts using the blade attachment of a food processor.
2. Blitz in everything else except coconut
3. Roll into balls and coat in coconut.
4. Cover in fridge until served.
5. Eat as part of healthy balanced diet.
N.B. If you are substituting or replacing ingredients, remember the following four points;

1. You need a binding ingredient, e.g. peanut butter or something sticky like dates (you can use extra)
2. You need a bulking ingredient, e.g. nuts, seeds, porridge oats etc.
3. Consistency is important: A little crunch or small bursts of flavour are desirable. Too smooth, nobody knows what went in them. They should not be too dry or too moist.
4. This is a good recipe to play with quantities and create your own version.

Website update: I had to 'strip' the Connemara yog

Website update: I had to 'strip' the Connemara yoga videos from their sound content because I did the practices to music there during the summer. You can hear the music on the playback along with the unique summer bird songs. So unfortunately, I have had to remove the cuckoos doves, larks and swallows which I must say made the videos particularly relaxing. I am getting over this musical copyright issue by recording winter songbirds in Dublin. There isn't copyright on birdsong (yet) so the accompaniment for my on-demand Connemara classes will be eastcoast pigeons, gulls, robins and blackbirds. Better than no birds at all #yoga #details #onlineyoga #birdsong #copyright #irishmusician #irishyogateacher #newwebsite #comingsoon

And another set of muffins for The Sunday Bake. The truth is, you can't get a battenberg cake tin for love nor money in Dublin town. Even the Ballymaloe shop is out of battenberg cake tins (I checked). Clearly I have too much time on my hands right now. The situation will end when the alarm sounds off at 6:30am on Monday morning. In the meanwhile, I'm building a new yoga website with some content I hope you will enjoy.

About 19 months ago I had the joy of teaching yoga

About 19 months ago I had the joy of teaching yoga in the south of France with a beautiful gang of talented yogis: a yoga retreat for yoga teachers. It was a memorable week of laughter, camaraderie, mealtimes and twice daily yoga classes taught by a very accomplished and experienced yoga and movement teachers. This week, I’ve organised my own ‘virtual’ yoga retreat by going to the classes of my friends and teachers I’ve wanted to go to for a long time. Thanks to @yogadublin for generously offering their online classes for free this weekend, I’ve enjoyed classes with @yogawithmanasi @annaolssonyoga @aislinbyyoga. I also did a very soft restorative class with @everydayyogaie (see her bio for link to her website) and I’m looking forward to yin with @janefeighery tonight. I’m in for a treat with @dubyinyoga on Monday night for Yin to your pyjamas (so thankful you’re not taking a break on Monday Grace). Midweek I’ll be practicing with @dharmayogacenter in NYC, my staple yoga class these days and a gift to practice with a master. I’ll be returning to @everydayyogaie for the genius named ‘yoga al desko’ for lunchtime nourishment. Next weekend, I’ll catch up with my original yoga gang and practice beautiful vinyasa flows inspired by Shiva Rea with @caraghyoga With so many wonderful teachers at our finger tips, a self designed international yoga retreat is available for all AND we are supporting each other in these times. In the new year, I’ll return to yoga teaching but for now, I am enjoying the student experience immensely 🙏🏻

This is Cici, my cat who has been missing since Thursday morning from the Dun Laoghaire/Glenageary area. If you see a majestic black cat with a white priests collar, please let me know. Here are is the recipe for the scones I meant to post ages ago, and with a happier intro. On the positive news front, I recorded a demo on my music page @aoifesings so the #openyourheartspace challenge wasn’t in vain, but it certainly panned out differently to what I expected. #scones
Cranberry & Orange Scones
425g self-raising white flour

85g cold hard butter

20g caster sugar

finely grated zest of 2 large oranges

2 medium/small eggs

2-3 giant dollops of natural yogurt.
1 pinch of salt

50g dried cranberries

½ tsp vanilla essence
Preparation stage:

1. Adjust the shelves of your oven to the middle position and preheat the oven to 200° C.
2. Grease a large flat baking tray lightly with butter.
3. In a large mixing bowl, sieve the flour and salt.
4. Without excessively handling the butter, put it onto a plate and dice it.
5. In a measuring jug or small bowl, lightly mix the yogurt, eggs and vanilla together.
6. Zest the oranges and measure the sugar and cranberries

Bringing it all together:

1. Rub the butter into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Work quickly and lightly.
2. Stir in the zest, sugar and the cranberries.
3. Make a well in the centre of the mixture and using a round bladed knife, go back and forward until the mixture is wet enough for you to be able to knead it, without your hand getting sticky. Add more yogurt (or milk) if needed. (use the dregs of egg and yogurt to glaze the scones later). 4. Use a flour dredger to dust a clean work surface and tip out the dough onto it.

5. Knead lightly until mixture is smooth. Don’t spend more than one minute kneading.
6. Roll the dough out to no less than the thickest part of your thumb.
7. Use a large scone cutter to cut out the scone rounds. Bake for 12-15 minutes.

Day 2 #openyourheartspace. Word of the day: HONES

Day 2 #openyourheartspace. Word of the day: HONESTY. Confronting ourselves to take the reigns into our own hands can feel squirmy and uncomfortable. Why is that if true for you? With physical heart openers, you can’t not be honest with yourself. On a practical level, as a yoga practitioner working with the body and mind, you MUST be honest in order to stay safe in your spine. On a mind level, honesty can get blurred into self-doubt and negative self talk leading to imposter syndrome when you are reaching towards a dream. Whatever you are doing, if you can take one step forward with ease, you are qualified. Therefore, your mantra of the day is “I am qualified”. You are qualified.
Today’s teacher of the day is Jess Oatway @yogajess7 you can find out about her class tonight from 6-7pm or her Saturday class at 10am through the link in her bio.

The Sunday Bake - Blackberry and Rose Sponge Cake

The Sunday Bake - Blackberry and Rose Sponge Cake - Using the last of the home frozen blackberries picked in Connemara last autumn, it felt symbolic to finish them up, just as the raspberry fruits are beginning to swell. - This is an easy celebration cake to make with kids and suitable for a special occasion assignment in the junior cycle, e.g. a birthday, Mother’s day or an anniversary.
- All-in-one method using a handheld electric whisk
- The rose flavour came from rose water and dried rose petals. - The rose colour came from food colouring. However, if I were to make this again, I’d cut out the food colouring and use a thickened puree of raspberries or adjust the sugar volume and use jam to make the sponge go pink.
Ingredients:
225g Butter, softened.
225g self-raising flour
225g golden caster sugar
3 eggs
85g ground almonds
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 tbsp rose water
A lot of red/pink food colouring (add in after mixing the above)
Beat everything together using an electric whisk
20cm spring form tin, greased. Put 2-3 cups of frozen backberries on the base and spread the sponge cake mixture on top. 180 °C for 35-40 minutes.
For the icing, melt 50g butter and added that to 150g sieved icing sugar with a tsp of rose water. Swirl on the top of the cake when cooled so it looks like a rose. Sprinkle dried rose petals and top with a fresh pink rose.

Happy 81st birthday to my teacher Sri Dharma Mittr

Happy 81st birthday to my teacher Sri Dharma Mittra. The silver lining in this covid crisis for me, has been regular Hatha yoga practice with Sri Dharma, every other day from his home in New York City. What a strange world we live in. Om Shanti. 🕉Thank you @olwynkearns for making the introduction 2 years ago when I was looking for yoga studio recommendations in NYC. 🙏🏻 #yoga #sridharmamittra

A W E I R D K I N D O F B L I N D F O L D E D

A W E I R D K I N D O F B L I N D F O L D E D “I spoke to an old therapist friend today, and I finally understood why everyone’s so exhausted after the video calls. It’s the plausible deniability of each other’s absence. Our minds tricked into the idea of being together when our bodies feel we are not. Dissonance is exhausting.
It’s easier being in each other’s presence, or each other’s absence, than in the constant presence of each other’s absence.
Our bodies process so much context, so much information, in encounters, that meeting on video is being a weird kind of blindfolded. We sense too little and can’t imagine enough. That single deprivation requires a lot of conscious effort”. I am teaching virtual home economics Monday to Friday. My instinct early on in this pandemic was to become more of a yoga practitioner and to use my practice time to reflect and as a way of checking in with myself. It’s needed because the hours are long and my eyed have literally dried out from so much screen time. It certainly isn’t ideal without the energizing company and support of colleagues and students but there have been upsides, like making videos, watching back and realising your all your ‘isms’ and getting over the cringe factor. That’s me, early on in this mess we’re in, putting on my brave mask, in my kitchen making an apple tart video for YouTube, in a state of shock probably. Zoom just doesn’t cut it for me and I couldn’t articulate exactly why until I read the above quote from a Tweet thread from Gianpiero Petriglieri @gpietriglieri (sent in the school bulletin). Sharing it here because I think it’s amazing. I miss teaching yoga and I look forward to one day teaching again.

Lolling about on my yoga wheel this weekend in the back garden. A perfect social isolation day. I hope to teach yoga wheel classes in the future. Don’t know when that will be but it’s something I’d love to share when this whole thing is over. #yogawheel #yogateacher #yoga #bankholiday #gardening #nature #perfectday @trendy_and_bendy

It’s a precious time in the garden right now and I’m like a fierce mother with a clutch of new borns in the wild. Seriously. Waking up earlier than usual to remove slugs from delicate plants will become the new norm. Having faith not to spray my roses, in the hope the ladybird will return to eat the greenfly. Trusting that nature will support herself and there will be some fruits (and vegetables) from these labours. Pictures show both the destruction already caused by pests and the new surprises which this year has already brought: blossoms on the pear tree for the first time in 3 years. #intothewild #2kmfromthehouse #invaders #creatures #beauty #surprises #gardening #yogateacherhiatus #homeeconomicsteacher #everyinchaccountedfor

One of my students in school once said: “do you actually go out into your garden with the camera AND the food you make”? Why yes I would say and he would look baffled. I miss this sort of highlighting ridiculousnesses of the medium type of comment. So, in homage to this particular student, who popped into my mind, here’s some porridge bread photographed in the garden with the fancy pants SLR. Ingredients (from memory and not guaranteed) : 350mls milk with juice of a lemon, the end of a tub of sour cream, an egg, 250g brown flour, 100g plain flour, 100g porridge oats, 1 level tsp bicarbonate of soda, 1 level two salt, 1-2 tbsp rapeseed oil, I *think* I put a teaspoon of treacle in too...Method: (1) grease a loaf tin with butter and dash around a few oats so they stick to the sides of the tin, (2) preheat your oven to 190 C (3) mix all dry ingredients together (4) mix all wet ingredients together (5) mix wet with dry ingredients together with a wooden spoon (6) using a spatula, pour mix into the prepared loaf tin, (7) sprinkle surface with a few oats (8) place into oven for approx 45 minutes or until cooled al the way through. Use a skewer to test. #bread #wetmix #easybread #school #easterholidays #nofilter

Sending out virtual hugs with the PAC Man cake. Serve whole with one slice missing. 👾👾👾👾Do you remember we promised to share our baking disasters as well as our successes during this disaster? @everydayyogaie I substituted flour for half the almonds I was short on in this version of Jewish Orange Passover cake. Tastes like orange “Gur-cake” with consistency of pancake. Grand if you’re starving. But more importantly, the baking of it sort of filled an emotional void left empty from the lack of hugs from the little ones I’m related too (and the big ones too). #keepcalmandbakecake #keepcalmandyoga #baking #experiments #therapeutic #homeeconomics
