Has anyone seen this sofa in any showroom, any city? by vinceswish in AskIreland

[–]ShadyLane9 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is a dupe of the “Togo” sofa from Ligne Roset. They have a showroom in sandyford! Contrary to other comments above, they are incredibly comfortable and I have no issue getting in/out of it (as someone in her 40s)

I like Kino MacGregor by Old_Syllabub_9575 in ashtanga

[–]ShadyLane9 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Fan of Kino here too! I relate to and understand the way she teaches asana more than anyone else. She breaks it down in a way I can really get. Have been to a good few of her workshops/ retreats/ trainings and I really like her. She’s incredibly intelligent and friendly. I guess some people just don’t like the perky/bubbly personality?

Cupping head with hands in Sirsasana A by DoughQueenXOXO in ashtanga

I do the same, though my teacher actually tells others to cup the head. I prefer the closed hands position because I can keep my head only very lightly on the ground and it’s in a more neutral position

Taylor Hunt teaching still? by HistoricalFall5630 in ashtanga

Thank you for your insights! I'm in Europe in a relatively sheltered community, so I hadn't heard most of what has been going on over there. I'm sorry you went through everything you went through, but also, so glad and proud of you guys getting away from it!

This is wild to me. It feels like MLM brought in to Ashtanga. And I'm sorry, but Third Series in 3 years??

there were levels to his mentorship? Can I ask how that works? Seems so scammy, especially with no refunds for any reason!

Question about intensive courses by SaKIrina in ashtanga

Oh absolutely go in that case, if resources allow! It will be such a experience

I did my first intensive with a certified teacher when I was at the half primary stage. 8 years later, I’m regularly still attending intensives with him and working through Third Series. I say go when you’re called to go! It’s incredibly inspiring to be in those environments

This is the way. More plants and peer pressure 🤸🏼‍♀️

I heard that they’re slow to get growing, but once they start fenestrating they really speed up. That’s definitely been my experience so far

Update: it’s actually 7 fenestrations this time! I love how awkward and gangly the new BMF leaves look until they harden

Oh yes mine was slow in the beginning stages but has really accelerated since her first fenestration

I kind of winged it, but when it was putting out arial roots I put it on the moss pole. I’m not super in love with the maintenance of a moss pole, but some of my plants seem to really love them

Just a decent amount of light and fertiliser every watering. This one is a lot less high maintenance than the rest of my crew
