July Updates – Concession Card info

image

NAMASTE

Some more exciting events are happening at the studio but first I need to put on my business hat.  I am changing the validity of the concession cards from 6 months to 3 months as I seem to be sitting with a number of expired cards and I want to encourage you to make your yoga count.  The effects of yoga are cumulative – it’s not the intensity, or difficulty, of a practice that reaps rewards but the consistency.

I am offering a three month amnesty – so if you bought your card within the last year (July 13 – June 14) you can still come in and use up your sessions.  They will be valid until the end of September.

The monthly AP is now $120 per month and for a minimum of 6 months duration.  Do check out the website: https://whisperedsecretsyoga.com/class-timetable  where you’ll find some great pricing incentives to keep you a regular yogini.

Also I do encourage you all for hygiene reasons to purchase your own yoga mats for class –  I now stock the Gaiam Yoga Range.   Not only are they good quality, durable but thick enough for the wooden floor and are very well priced at $40 each.  Plus…. at last – Eftpos facilities are on their way!!

Now to the fun stuff…..

We still have spaces for the YOGA, MALA & MEDITATION DAY – these photos are malas made at the last workshop

 SUNDAY 13 JULY  10.00 – 4.00pm

This workshop is with Trish Moore and myself.  Wooden beads & silk cord are included in the price and we will have extra crystals, findings, beads to accent your mala.  The day will start with a yoga and japa meditation session to get you tuned in and then its your turn to get creative. Cost: $85    Please bring a plate for a shared lunch.

For info: https://whisperedsecretsyoga.com/beading-workshops/

and my post on Malas: https://whisperedsecretsyoga.com/2014/05/20/mala-mantra-peace/

 

WHISPERED SECRETS HOLISTIC MARKET – SAT 19 JULY  10.00 – 4.00pm

The fire pit will be ready – potatoes, kumara & marshmallows on the menu.  They were delicious last month and inside radiated a beautiful energy. The two buddha heads were my purchase for the studio – thank you Leah.  Leah will have beautiful meditation blankets from Nepal as well this month and of course our regular stallholders, readers and therapists will all be there.  You can pre -book your treatments: https://whisperedsecretsyoga.com/whispered-secrets-holistic-market

Baby Bella Tortas with Pine Nut Herb Pesto
Baby Bella Tortas with Pine Nut Herb Pesto

 

BABY BELLA TORTAS WITH PINE NUT HERB PESTO by Chad Samo

This recipe has been a big hit at home.  I’ll marinate the mushrooms as I chop the salad and mix up my pesto – delish!

16 crimini (button) mushrooms

1/4 cup Tamari sauce

1/4 cup olive oil

1/2 TB minced Oregano

Freshly cracked pepper

 

Marinate the stemmed mushrooms with the above ingredients and allow to sit for 20-60 mins, tossing gently occasionally.

1 cup fresh basil, chopped

2 TB fresh chives, chopped

1.5 TB fresh sage, chopped

3 TB fresh oregano, chopped

1/2 cup pine nuts or brazil nuts

1/4 cup olive oil

2 cloves garlic

1/2 tsp Himalayan Salt

1/4 cup cherry tomatoes

In food processor, process all fresh herbs, pine nuts, 1/4 cup olive oil, garlic and salt into a slightly chunky consistency.

When mushrooms have softened and are marinated, stuff each mushroom with 1/4 tsp of pesto, depending on size. Place a slice on cherry tomato on top to garnish (or so this after warming).

Place on dehydrator sheet and dehydrate for 1-2 hours.  Or, simply place into a warmed oven to gently heat and then serve.
