We still have a few spaces in our Tuesday evening complimentary classes
over the next few weeks.

These are FREE classes that ANYONE can attend – so please mention to your
friends if they would like to give PIlates a try but do not want to commit
to a course yet.

The classes are aimed at Beginner level but can still be very useful no
matter how advanced you are- it is always good to go back to basics and
receive tips and advice from a different instructor.

Brittany is very nearly qualified with Modern Pilates and is combining
this well with her extensive background in ballet and gymnastics. The
classes will form part of Brittanys teaching practice.

The classes are every Tuesday 7.15-8pm and need booking in advance through
myself. I will be present during the class.

We also have one space in the Wednesday 6pm Reformer (machine) class. If
you book this as your second class you will receive 10% discount – let me
know if you would like more details.

Wishing you all a wonderful week!
Amber McShane
Director and Instructor

The Happiness Centre in August 2010

What’s in the stars?

Saturn is at 5 Libra opposition the Jupiter – Uranus conjunction on the Pisces – Aries cusp: huge forces if you have planets in these zones.

New Moon on the  7th at 14 deg Libra

Full Moon on the 23rd at 1 deg Aries (on top of the Saturn – Jupiter/Uranus opposition!)

Mercury is retrograde in Virgo from 22nd August to 13th September, so expect delays and lost messages.

Sun is in Virgo, entering Libra on September 23rd

Venus is in Scorpio

Mars in Libra but shortly entering Scorpio to join Venus there!

Jupiter has just entered Aries

Uranus is at 29 Pisces

Neptune is at 26 Aquarius

Pluto is at 2 Capricorn

Chiron is at 28 Aquarius

The North Node is at 8 Capricorn; the South Node at 8 Taurus

Aries

Big focus on work. There can be complications and delays but by mid-month, things are running much more smoothly. Love matters are complicated but passion intensifies around the 12th and 18th. Your desire for depth experiences on an intimate level is strong. Your attention on finance focuses on debts and loans, and perhaps taxes – think creatively. Focus on health and nutrition strategies for improvement. Intuition is heightened from the 18th.

Taurus

Big focus on relationships, but with complications until mid-month. Your affectionate nature is well-defined in September. Bring harmony. Enjoy leisure time. New opportunities through friendships, group associations, and networking.

Gemini

Interesting and surprising developments in partnerships, education and career. Avoid no-win situations. Creativity is heightened. Any troubling family matters clear up by the middle of September.

Cancer

The focus is friendships, networking, learning, pleasure, adventure, new experiences and expanded horizons. Expect some confusion, delays, and misunderstandings until the 14th, the probability of runs high, after which these matters begin to clear. Love is intense this month, but in a mostly pleasant manner. There is a passionate energy to romance in September with Venus and Mars both entering Scorpio. Look for career opportunity from around the 23rd.

Leo

Financial matters become more clear by the 14th. Projects that have been delayed now begin to move forward. Intuition runs high from the 8-12th. Later in September can be a time of sudden insights and opportunities for emotional renewal or healing. For some: rejuvenation of romance.

Virgo

A creative ideas month. The New Moon on the 8th begins a period when you are noticed and more confident. Career matters are strong after the 12th. Love is clearer from mid-month. A matter that was previously hidden can come to light and help you to see more clearly.

Libra

A very good proactive month for Librans. Power, personal magnetism, sexiness, appeal, charm, and tact – plus energy, initiative, intensity, and drive up to the 14th. Exciting for love. An energy of spiritual renewal and rebirth: death of old projects: new projects arise. Take more down time than usual. Be the Hermit. Opportunities and new insights come in the areas of work or health. Break out of lifeless aspects of your job. Inner restlessness brings radical change.

Scorpio

You will be popular. You will easily make connections. You will feel held back until the 14th. Set goals. Activate your plans. Get in touch with your desires. After the 14th, clarity comes together with increased energy and motivation for setting personal plans into motion. Job offers might arrive. Your partner has your best interests at heart. New intuition or insights come to you around the 18th regarding romance and creativity. Surprises are in store. Your impulses tend to be right on the mark. Others feel your enthusiasm and tend to follow your lead. From the 22nd, you require a little more time to regroup.

Sagittarius

Career matters are strong. Show your competent and responsible side. There may be some backtracking and slow progress up to the 12th, when these matters clear. Partnership becomes clearer mid-month, as does finance. Focusing on learning, skills improvement, and communication skills. From the 8th onwards, your love life is private or quiet until January 2011 with Venus in your 12th House. Spend some time to soul-search. Develop your creativity and your dormant talents.

Capricorn

A month where you focus on power and ambition.  You are bolder. Your vision is clearer, especially from the 13th.  Look for new insights and developments in learning, neighbourhood matters or with siblings, or communication. Inspiration can be found now. From the 8th, romance is more light-hearted until January 2011. Friends, group activities, and networking play a large role in your love life. The influence of friends and group connections is powerful throughout the year. You are expanding your horizons and friends are helping you to feel more connected and confident. The Full Moon on the 23rd may clarify a family matter.

Aquarius

September brings intensity and stronger desire to investigate life or research. From mid-month, you’re likely to find much support and personal popularity in your career or community. There may be a sudden improvement in financial position. Problem solving comes far more easily to you by mid-September.

Pisces

Romance and partnership is in strong, intense, adventurous focus this month, with possible surprises in close relationships from the 17th-22nd. Career matters are unexpected! Inspiration can come suddenly, perhaps even from a dream. Break free from limiting conditions or outworn attitudes. From the 8th, your love life takes a turn that continues for the rest of 2010. You are more adventurous in love. You will find you’re attracted to people you’ve never considered before. The Full Moon on the 23rd can shed new light on a financial matter or project.

LOVING TOUCH FOR COUPLES

One of the problems that often sneaks into even the most loving relationships is distance. And I don’t necessarily mean physical distance. Over many years of a busy life those delicate and vulnerable connections we forge with the significant other in our lives are worn down, frayed and loosened. For many, those connections have been completely severed, so that two people who once loved each other, live as strangers in the same lonely house for years. How does it happen? Is it one event that cuts off the love or is it lots of little hurts and disappointments, often unvoiced, that create the emotional distance? Or is just that people are too busy to connect? Children who are a major part of parents’ life can also be a contributing cause of this over the years.

We say that we’ve grown apart or fallen out of love. But really what has happened is that we haven’t maintained the relationship. Just as you wouldn’t expect your car to keep going without regular maintenance, you shouldn’t expect your relationships to, either. Just like a rose bush needs to be watered and fed, pruned and weeded, so does our relationship.

It’s not enough to set aside time to be alone together, although that’s a start. You have to find ways to feed the relationship- share activities that you both enjoy, talk about subjects that are meaningful to you and have your partner really listen, and vice versa. These are ways to nurture your loving relationships.

Couples come together initially because of physical connection. They are attracted to each other and want the closeness and intimacy that is reserved for that ‘significant other’ relationship. Over time this connection often becomes ritualized and superficial, the real significance of that early physical bonding is lost.

Sandrine, the Happiness Centre’s fabulous massage therapist, knows one sure way to strengthen and nurture romantic bonds or to get that loving feeling back into relationships- that is by Sensual Touch.

Sandrine will be offering a one day workshop called Loving Touch for Couples at the Happiness Centre on Sunday 26th September, 10am to 6pm. She will guide couples to become centered, preparing themselves and their environment for deep connection, both emotionally and physically (although non-sexually) with each other.

If you would like to register your interest for this very special day for yourself and your partner please ring the centre and leave your details for Sandrine, or email her directly on sandrine@pickard.co.uk to receive the full brochure. No previous massage knowledge is required, just a willingness to explore and connect once more deeply with your partner. The comments from previous participants give you a feel for this very special and beautiful workshop:

“We both really enjoyed the workshop and thought you conducted it with great maturity, charm and sensitivity. We were surprised at what we discovered in ourselves. It was lovely to spend so much time together, getting to know each other again. Thank you. “

“It really is a way to be completely present and in the moment for your partner. Thank you for this blessing.”

“You held a very safe and sacred space in which you guided us in a very clear and light-hearted way into deepening our connection to each other through massage. I felt amazing afterwards and I could feel energy rippling through my body. “
