Before you know it you are in a completely different place than you ever expected in life and you wish you had done more or tried harder. We all have those moments where we wish we had taken more of a chance in life, stepped out of our comfort zone and talked to that person we were interested in, asked for their number or reached for that kiss.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m here to tell you now that it won&#8217;t get any easier, it will only get harder the longer you leave it. So go for it NOW! Don&#8217;t wait a second\u00a0longer, don&#8217;t stand there wondering or overthinking it. Go out there and reach for those people you want to connect with, engage with people, connect, show them the\u00a0greatness that is you.<\/p>\n<p>Take a chance, who cares if you fail, at least you won&#8217;t spend your life wondering. And in most cases you will learn a valuable lesson that will strengthen you to go forward and take the next risk. That&#8217;s life!<\/p>\n<p>So think of today as your last chance to run out and kiss someone special. Make those moments that take your breath away.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2305&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2289&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Connect with Nature &amp; Connect With Yourself<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">If you are the type of person who gets very nervous on a date, try to pick a venue that allows you to connect with nature.

We do the same things we have always done, we don\u2019t try anything new, and we don&#8217;t believe it can happen. So why would it be any different to last year? Nothing will change unless you make it happen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">So what are you going to do different this year that you have never done before? Hear are some ideas:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">It could be as simple as changing your attitude, be more optimistic about your love life and believe it can happen for you. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">You may need to go to more events with like-minded people. Join <a href=\"http:\/\/meetup.com\"><span class=\"s1\">meetup.com<\/span><\/a> or other social groups that have regular events. Sign up for all those annoying email events that you once filtered to spam &amp; just deleted, but now read them and go to the events as regularly as possible.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Say \u2018YES\u2019 more often. To people, to invitations, to events, to ideas, to conversations. Just embrace possibilities that can come with that simple word.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Try changing your routine so you meet new people. Go to a different coffee shop in the morning, eat at different restaurants, try a new yoga class in a different area, or maybe a new job. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Dedicate more time to socialising, even if that means aiming to meet one new person a week. You may just find you make some great new friends and invite new people and possibilities into your life.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Get out of your comfort zone and make this the year that you find your unbelievably great love! <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Good luck and let us know how your go.

Fake It Till You Make It?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">The mind is everything when it comes to dating. You need to think like a person already in love if you want to attract love. If all you ever do is talk about being single, live a single life, and hang out with single people, then you will inevitably attract that single energy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">It\u2019s time to change things up! Here are some tricks that help you get into the mindset of a loving committed relationship:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Never sleep in the middle of the bed, sleep to one side and imagine your loved one sleeping next to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Keep half your wardrobe space available for your loved one. Make room in your world for them as if they were already there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Go to places that you would want to go to with your partner. You will inevitably attract people that you want from these places.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Cook proper meals each day as if you were cooking for someone special, you can always have leftovers the next day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Keep at least 2 nights a week available for \u201cdate night\u201d and try to fill them with actual dates. Committing time to a relationship can be the biggest challenge for some.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Stop saying you are single. If asked, reply with \u201cI love being in a relationship and can\u2019t wait for someone special.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Don&#8217;t let your ego get in the way, if someone offers to set you up, say yes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Don&#8217;t complain about being single. Tell people how excited you are about being with someone amazing and how great you are in a relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Make each day count, as though you were in a new relationship and showing them your absolute best side, all the time. Eventually it will come naturally and you won\u2019t have to try, you will just be the best version of you all the time, and there is nothing more attractive then that, right?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>How Yoga Fits Into My Day, All Day<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">I wake up and take deep breaths, slowly, with calmness, not relying on my ability to inhale anymore than my exhale.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">When I eat my breakfast, each mouthful is chewed with gratitude, with full appreciation for the taste, recognising the exact sensation of each mouthful.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">As I sit to do my work I make a clear intention for the day which will affect each action I take, each email I write, each word spoken and all energy exerted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">I encounter many people throughout my day, some friendly and calm, others stressful and angry.

It\u2019s never easy to trust again, to believe people can be good to you, or to open your heart to someone and allow yourself to be loved. Many people put up protective barriers to avoid feeling that way again. But you&#8217;re not helping yourself. You&#8217;re just going to restrict yourself from receiving any kind of love in the future. Holding onto painful past experiences does no one any good. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">People you meet will inevitably be able to feel this pain you carry with you. It may be subconscious, but they will feel it and be turned off. They will know you are not fully committed to the relationship because your energy is focused on healing the pain from a previous relationship. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">The only thing you can do is learn to forgive. Forgiveness is one of the most important acts you will ever learn in life. Not only does it release bad energy from your past, but it gives you the emotional space to move forward and focus your thoughts on new love. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">So today, make a conscious decision to forgive anyone that has caused you pain. Say to yourself \u201cI forgive you and release you from my mind. Thank you.\u201d Now you are free to move onto better and brighter things.

Or maybe it\u2019s just what I like to call \u201cimaginary infatuation.\u201d You want to be in love so badly that you become infatuated with someone and imagine the feeling of love so intensely. But it\u2019s not real. It fizzles out after a few months or they do something that you don&#8217;t like and it all blows up in your face and you just can\u2019t understand why?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Let\u2019s be realistic here, you can\u2019t truly love someone you don\u2019t know anything about. It just doesn\u2019t make any sense. True love comes from knowing someone deeply and intimately, in good times and bad times, by opening your heart to someone and allowing them to see you for who you really are. True love is when you can be at your worst and still feel comfortable to confide in them, a best friend, with unconditional admiration. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">So be patient, take the time to get to know someone and commit to regular time with them without distraction. Always be exactly who you are, not what you think they want you to be. Be sure you are seeing them through honest and open eyes. Often, love will hit you at that very moment when\u00a0you allow yourself to care deeply for them, when you realise your admiration for them, and see their true\u00a0nature. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\"><b>When Is The Right Time To Have Sex?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">In the world of dating, sex can be a very touchy subject. Some believe you should wait, others dive right in. But there is a fine balance to be observed. Here are some points to help keep you in line:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">* Don&#8217;t wait too long. Anything more than 8 months and it\u2019s likely one of you is just scared or using sex to control the other. Move past your fear and get jiggy with it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">* If you can\u2019t talk about politics, religion or money yet then you\u2019re not quite ready to lock loins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">* Meet \u2018their people\u2019. You can tell a lot about someone by who they hang out with. If they are hanging from the roof with a beer in one hand and a weapon in the other, then I\u2019de question their judgement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">* Exercise with them. If you\u2019re comfortable in your jogging bottoms sweating like a pig, then you\u2019re on your way to doing the deed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">* Sex on the first date is never a good idea. In fact, sex on the first, second or third date will usually leave one of you feeling confused. Keep it in your pants until at least the 4th date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">* Make sure you know their last name, details about their family, and where they work. Seems simple, but you would be surprised how many people forget to ask\u2026?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">* Seeing someone under stress can show you who they really are. So see how they handle going without internet for a day, or a trip to IKEA\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">* Cook together. Not only does is establish equality but you are forced to communicate and bond. No fights? Then you\u2019re good to go.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">If you have done your ground work,\u00a0then go for it. Just be safe, be brave, be open, be honest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2120&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2103&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2060&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>What Are Your Love Goals?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Many of us make goals every day; for our jobs, finances, our weight etc. But how often do we actually set \u2018Love Goals\u2019? How often do you set an actual intention to achieve love in a certain amount of time? Seems strange to some of us, particularly those who are not specifically numerically minded, like myself. But sometimes keeping things vague like \u201cI want to fall in love\u201d just doesn\u2019t cut it. You need more. You need to put the pressure on yourself to take action and that requires specific, achievable, timely goals. So take a seat, grab a pen and have a think; <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">1) When exactly do you want to fall in love by? By the end of the year? By your next birthday? Pick a date, highlight it on your calendar and work towards it. Consider this your deadline date, like you would a work project. Then work backwards, considering all the necessary steps required to achieve your goal by this date.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">2) What exactly do you want the final goal to be? Does it end in marriage? Living with your partner? Or will you be happy with just having a great person in your life? Do you need a great passion or stability? Be specific. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">3) How are you going to actually achieve your goal? Write down all the possible options that can give you the result you are aiming for; whether it\u2019s online dating or attending more events. Commit to actioning each of these areas every single day. Yes, EVERY SINGLE DAY! <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">4) How can you measure your success rate in achieving your love goal? Rate the amount of love you have in your life on a scale of 1 to 10 right now. This can come from friends\/family etc. Once you have met someone special and are reassessing your goals, rate the level of love in your life again and see if it has increased or not. Has this person actually brought more love to your life or caused you to have less love? <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">5) It\u2019s also important to define \u201cLove\u201d in your own terms. Everyone has a different standard of love they need and defines it in slightly different ways. Decide what you need in the word \u201clove\u201d and make sure it becomes so.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">6) Make sure your goals are realistic. There is no point aiming for something that is completely unachievable. We want you to succeed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">So write this all down and put it up on your wall where you can see it every day. Make sure your actions each day reflect these goals and you are putting the appropriate amount of time into achieving it by your deadline. If it doesn\u2019t happen for you, reassess your goals, what you have learnt and how you have progressed, and start again. With commitment, you will achieve it. www.yoga-singles.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>The Change To A Yogic Life<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">\u201cI do yoga but I\u2019m not some kind of weird hippie.\u201d Umm\u2026 I can\u2019t believe I once said this on a first date. I should have stood proud and tall that I do yoga and yes, I am a bit of a hippie, so what!? I meditate, believe in spirit guides, gravitate to high energy foods, and wear a necklace with an Om on it. Thats me! So why did I feel like I shouldn\u2019t show people that on a first date?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">It\u2019s saturday night; you\u2019re in a bar with a beer in one hand, a cigarette in the other, wearing something that you have carefully picked to try and entice the opposite sex, and your eyes are wondering around the room searching for the best option to keep you momentarily distracted for the night, with the secret hope that it might evolve into something more meaningful. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Sound familiar? <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Most of us have been in this position at least once in our lives. Many of you have evolved beyond this point. Perhaps it was when you first discovered yoga or meditation and things started to change quickly in your life. Your choice of food changes, your perspective on life shifts, you prioritise different activities, and perhaps you start hanging out in different circles of friends. Sometimes after all this change, you forget how many people are actually out there that understand your lifestyle. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">We started Yoga Singles a year ago now so I have had the opportunity to connect with so many brilliant people and discover what they want in a relationship. I have been pleasantly surprised to see so many people who just didn\u2019t realised there were so many like-minded singles out there, looking for the same thing; people who want to eat healthy, do yoga, practice spirituality and meditation with a conscious mind. They are certainly out there. So embrace who you are and find someone who respects and supports your lifestyle with great and loving passion! www.yoga-singles.com<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2022&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1995&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>I Want Everything, So I Get Nothing<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">I want to be with someone seriously sexy, really rich, who never argues with me, loves all the same things as me, has no flaws, and a golden halo\u2026 <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">hmmmm\u2026 really? Sound familiar?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">If you are one of these people it\u2019s likely that you will struggle to cultivate a healthy, peaceful, fulfilling relationship. You will always be looking for the unattainable, the sparkling treasure at the end of the rainbow. Sorry to burst your bubble but it doesn&#8217;t exist. And you know it! In fact, you probably chase this \u2018perfect\u2019 person because you know they don&#8217;t exist so you then avoid the reality of an actual relationship. Well that isn&#8217;t going to help you find love, is it?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">So what to do\u2026?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Ok so when you meet someone new, write a list of 10 characteristics they posses. Start at the top with all the best ones and then as you go further down the list reveal the ones that are ok, and then the not so good ones. For example: kind, loving, friendly, ambitious, adventurous, family focused, eats junk food, drinks a lot, sometimes moody, gets angry &amp; yells easily. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Possessions do not count in this, so money, cars, or a big house are not to come onto your list. Only personality traits please! <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Once you have your list, look closely at it. Do the good outweigh the bad? Can you tolerate the bad traits? How much do you love the good ones? How important are they to you? If you are looking at a list with mostly good traits then try to give the relationship a good chance. If they have mostly poor traits then they are not for you. But remember, there are so many people out there that are full of 10 great traits, it\u2019s all in your perspective. Right?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Meditation To Help You Find Love<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Sit in a quite space, undisturbed, on a cushion or chair and close your eyes, with palms facing up. Take 3 deep slow breaths, counting to 4 as you breath in, hold your breath for 4 counts, then breath out for 4 counts and hold for 4 counts. Continue this pattern 3 times focusing only on your breath.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Now, as you continue steady breathing, bring your attention to the air coming in and out of your nostrils and count to 7. Try not to allow other thoughts to disturb your focus, but if they do, start counting again. Once you have managed to reach 7 without disturbing the mind, you are ready to start your visualisation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Start by visualising yourself in a safe and comfortable place. It can be anywhere; a beach, park or even your home. See yourself in this space and feel the sense of happiness and peace wash over you. Then imagine what you would love to be doing in this space. See yourself interacting with your ideal partner. What kind of things would you do together, talk about, or experience together?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Try not to put a face to the person as it will only limit you. Instead, imagine the feelings you have when you are around each other, the interaction between you, the gestures, the conversation, the attitude, the love. Be creative and enjoy this process for a few minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">When you feel like you have a good grasp on the image, thank the universe for this blessing in your life, lower your head and slowly open your eyes. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Try this meditation for 5-10 minutes each day and see how the it begins manifest in your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\">www.yoga-singles.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1992&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1971&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Always Single?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">I recently spoke to a friend of mine who is always single and asked him how the dating was going. He said the same thing he always says \u201cnot much happening.\u201d It\u2019s the same story over and over again with him. He is a lovely, warm, kind gentleman with so much to offer, but he has one very big problem; he can\u2019t remember what it\u2019s like to be in a relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">When you have been single for a long time you start to forget that lovely feeling of having someone to care about, you don&#8217;t know what it\u2019s like to share great news with someone special, to get excited about seeing them, or to feel the love of someone else&#8217;s energy close to you. Instead, you get stuck in the same old pattern of being single.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">My advise to him was received with a little controversy. I told him to just start dating ANYONE. Just say \u2018yes\u2019 to the next date. If you meet someone remotely interesting, ask them out. Open yourself up and just get involved NOW. Some may say that this isn\u2019t fair to the other person, but if your intentions are always good, you are not doing anything wrong. You are just giving people a chance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">I think he expected to meet someone and just see the perfect person right there in front of him. But it doesn&#8217;t work that way. For most people, love grows and you have to put the time and effort into a person to develop a relationship. How can you ever do that if you are sitting at home assuming no one is right for you? Give people a chance. You never know what you might learn, what experiences you may have, or even what relationships you might conjure up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Committing to being in a relationship breaks the bad cycle of being single and gets you into the swing of things. It will help you realise what you want in a relationship, show you what it\u2019s like to be with someone, and open you up to the next stage in your life &#8211; Love! <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Are You REALLY Trying to Meet Someone?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">So many people make excuses why they aren&#8217;t in a relationship. But let\u2019s be honest, if you really really want to meet someone amazing, you can! You are holding up barriers in front of your own face. This is usually the main reason people are single. Once you realise what these barriers are, your outlook on life changes and suddenly you start meeting the right people. Here are some of the biggest excuses I hear and ways you can overcome them:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">* \u201cI don&#8217;t have time\u201d &#8211; Yes, you do have time! You are just not prioritising it. Less TV, Facebook, and work, more online dating and socialising with new people. Dedicate at least 1 hour a day to meeting someone new. Whether it\u2019s attending a class, joining a club, or just visualising your dream relationship. Allocate one night a week for a date. Even if you don&#8217;t use it, you know you \u2018have time\u2019 for that person when they do come along.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">* \u201cI\u2019m too busy with work right now\u201d &#8211; If you really didn\u2019t want to be in a relationship you wouldn&#8217;t be reading this. So stop hiding behind work. Remember what your goals are, what you really want out of life and allocate your time accordingly. If high priority is to meet someone, then leave the office on time and go mingle. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">* \u201cI\u2019m not attractive enough\u201d &#8211; we are all born different, embrace it, be happy and confident with yourself and your true nature will shine through. This is what really makes someone attractive. I have met so many people that are not \u2018typically\u2019 attractive but I see people flock to them because of their amazing energy and confidence.

But herb pots can easily sit on a window ledge, don\u2019t cost much to buy or maintain, and add so much flavour and nutrition to meals. Start with basil, mint, oregano and parsley.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">2) Make smoothie\u2019s instead of juices. Juices waste more, but smoothies use all the food, include the fibre and fill you up a lot more than juices do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">3) Seeds and nuts keep for long periods of time so buying in bulk from wholesalers will save a tone of money. Also, some fruits can be bought in bulk cartons, chopped up and frozen for smoothies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">4) Get to know your local farmers at the market, talk to them, tell them you want to support them and they will usually support you back. Perhaps you can volunteer to help them out one morning or help pick and sort vegetables in exchange for a bag of fresh produce.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">5) Sprouting seeds are really cheap and go a long way. Sprouts are great in salads, in wraps or sandwiches, are extremely good for you, and so easy to grow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">6) Make your own almond milk. All you gave to do is blend water with a handful of almonds in a strong mixer. For sweetening you can add a date or goji berries. It\u2019s much cheaper than buying it all the time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">7) Stock up at Health Food conventions or fairs. For some items you consume regularly, like coconut oil, you can get massive discounted rates. Don&#8217;t be afraid to negotiate with them for larger cartons.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">8) Eat what\u2019s in season. We have become accustomed to eating whatever we want whenever we want, but off-season food costs more. Plan your meals around whatever is in season at the time and you will save loads of money. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>20 Great 1st Date Questions For Truly Unique Conversation.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">On a first date you want to get a good idea what kind of person they are, without scaring them with intimating questions.

So I\u2019m sharing my great Super Yogi Cereal which is full of nutrients, gluten free, vegan, raw, sugar free and so delicious:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Get a large electric chopper (anything that can grind nuts) and put in a hand full of organic walnuts, almonds, cashews, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, goji berries, and raw cocoa nibs. Grind it all up into rough flakes, and add quinoa flakes, desiccated coconut, flaxseed, sesame seeds, a teaspoon of nutmeg, a table spoon of acai powder, and a teaspoon of cinnamon. Shake\u00a0it all up in an air tight jar and VOILA! Home made vegan\/raw cereal with so many nutritional benefits you will be bouncing off the walls!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Enjoy with your choice of coconut or almond milk. This should be enough for 2 weeks. Yummm!

They ate what they were given, went to work even if they hated it, and stuck with their partner even if they were miserable. It seems that not much progressed spiritually for many many years. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">But in recent times there has been a rise of consciousness. I\u2019m sure I\u2019m not the only one who has noticed more people becoming vegetarian, meditation becoming part of office management training, a Yoga Teacher becoming the most desired profession, and gyms becoming healthy\u00a0social scenes. People are actively pursuing happiness and becoming heavily invested in their personal and spiritual growth. The average person can now share words of wisdom with their friends and really inspire and make impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">This means that the image of the traditional \u2018Guru\u2019 has changed! No longer does your Guru come from India, have sacred tattoos and spent 20 years meditating in the mountains. Now it can just be your local yoga teacher, a friend who jumped off the corporate ladder and into a new healthier lifestyle, or even a parent who has been inspired by a self help book. Whatever it is, find Guru&#8217;s in everyday life and your world will become more special.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>How to Impress Your Date by \u2018Cooking\u2019<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Not all of us are master chefs but we would love to be able to prepare a fancy meal for our date. It really does impress! Here are a few tips to make the evening just that little bit more special without worrying too much about the food itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; Start by setting the table with all plates, cutlery, glasses, wine, and water. Also, put out a little olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. It gives it that restaurant vibe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; Buy a few ready made snacking foods to start with. Marinated olives, sun-dried tomatoes, dips, cheeses and crackers. Don&#8217;t serve them out of the plastic, make sure you put them in bowls\/plates so they look more fancy (prepare this before they get there so you don&#8217;t have to fuss in the kitchen too long when your guest arrives).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; Buy fancy bread rolls or banquets and put them in the oven for 2-3 minutes before eating (it feels so much more special when its warm).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; Always have a salad. Most supermarkets have a ready made mix green leaf salad you can toss into a bowl. Just add chopped tomatoes and cucumber (with the olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper already on the table they can do the rest to their taste).<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; So for the main meal, if you really have no idea how to cook, just buy a simple pasta from your favourite takeaway joint and heat it up. But if you have a signature dish that you make really well (most of us do) just make that! Even if its not glamorous, they will appreciate the love and enthusiasm that you put in. For those who still have nothing to make; just boil pasta for 15-20min, drain off water and add a ready made sauce from the supermarket, easy!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; By this point hopefully you have set up the evening so well that it won\u2019t matter how great your food is, the effort will count for everything! <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1839&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1824&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Should I Date Someone From The Same Culture?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Whether you\u2019re Indian, Chinese, Muslim, French, Catholic, Hare Krishna\u2026 whatever\u2026 religion or culture can be a deal breaker in a relationship. But why is it so important to some? Do we think they will understand us better? <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">My husband is Indian\/English\/Hindu and I am Greek\/Australian\/Orthodox and we have learnt a very valuable lesson in our relationship; The most important thing is that our VALUES are the same. The rest is just decorative words. We are both close to our family, health conscious, driven, and spiritual. Does it matter that society has given us each a different identity?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">So many people today want to have someone from the same faith or culture because they believe it will be \u2018easier\u2019. But you can easily find someone from the same culture with completely different values. Culture or faith does not automatically guarantee that you will agree on everything, want the same things in life, or raise your kids the same way. It all comes down to your values.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">So next time you&#8217;re scanning profiles online, look closer.

In todays competitive world, it\u2019s easy to carry our ego onto the yoga mat. Whether it\u2019s your desire for perfection, the need to be the best, or the need to achieve\u2026 All this stems from EGO. Our teachers constantly remind us to remove the ego in our yoga practice, to just accept where we are in the current moment. Our ego is only going to hurt us, off the matt and on the matt. So how do you know if you are one of those people that is fuelled by ego in yoga?:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; When you can do a posture that no one else in the class can do, you quietly gloat inside.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; If someone asks you if you can do a posture outside of a class, you always show them proudly, even when it\u2019s really inappropriate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; You often push yourself too far in a class, more than you know you should, just so you&#8217;re not the only person who isn&#8217;t doing it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; You often share pictures of yourself on social media doing really tricky postures in the hopes that you will get a few \u201cwow\u201d comments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; While you&#8217;re doing yoga, you always try to catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror to see how you look. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">We can all admit to having experienced at least one of these at some point. But lets try to recognise it next time, then hopefully we can move towards a new frame of mind that is not ego driven, but consciously present in the moment, experiencing whatever is happening in our practice without trying to manipulate it. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>How To Avoid Awkward Silences On A Date?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Quite often our biggest fear on a first date is that very awkward silence when neither of you know what to say next. How can you avoid this? Our Top Tips:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">1) Prepare some notes. It may seem silly but I believe it\u2019s very wise to write some short notes before a date. What are some of the key things you want them to know about you? What do you want to know about them? What are some of your passions, interests or life plans? What do you love talking about? Write them down and memorise them so you can be ready to start the conversation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">2) Avoid Negative Topics; Ex partners, deaths, worries or dramas in your life do NOT make for great first date conversation. It can make the energy between you even more awkward. If it comes up, change the subject as delicately and swiftly as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">3) Let THEM talk. People love talking about themselves. It\u2019s usually an easy topic and puts people at ease. So ask lots of questions; from their job, family members, weekend activities, travels, food preferences etc. and\u00a0you will inevitably find common ground.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">4) Choose a venue that offers some kind of topic of conversation. Perhaps there is a great view, a theatre show, an activity, a movie, a class etc. It will help give you something to talk about. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">5) What makes their eyes light up. Everyone has a topic that they get excited about, that they are passionate about. When you see their eyes light up, try to stay on topic. The conversation will easily flow if the other person is enjoying the topic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Try to choose a venue that you feel comfortable and relaxed in. But most of all, enjoy yourself! Nothing is more attractive than someone who makes the most out of any situation. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1800&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1683&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>How to avoid awkward food moments when someone doesn\u2019t have the same diet as you?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Vegetarian, vegan, peskatarian, carnivore, raw foodist, gluten free, sugar free, lactose intolerant\u2026 the list goes on and on. Everyone has their own diet requirements now and it can be really difficult to enjoy a nice meal with someone when you don\u2019t eat the same foods.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">I am vegan, one of my friends doesn&#8217;t eat carbohydrates, and another is gluten intolerant. So when we meet for dinner, it makes for interesting ordering. It got me thinking; what do you do if you are on a date and the other person doesn&#8217;t have the same diet as you. How can you avoid awkward moments?:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; If you know the restaurant you are going to, <strong>call a few hours before<\/strong> and check if they can accommodate you. In most cases, they will.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; <strong>Choose the restaurant<\/strong> wherever possible. This way you can choose\u00a0the food you\u00a0prefer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; <strong>Opt for sharing plates<\/strong>, this way there is likely to be something there that you can eat and it\u2019s not as obvious if you don&#8217;t eat everything.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; <strong>Tolerance is key<\/strong>. Avoid turning your nose up at someone else&#8217;s meal or lecturing them on the \u2018right\u2019 way to eat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; If you find you are in a restaurant that doesn&#8217;t have any options, just <strong>ask politely if they can make you something<\/strong>. I\u2019ve done this many times and they have never let me down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">&#8211; If you feel uncomfortable about asking and you can\u2019t get out of the restaurant, then just <strong>eat beforehand<\/strong> and only have a simple salad while you are there. This way you can still be social without having to give up your diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Try not to make a big fuss about it at the table. This can make things awkward and just draw attention to the situation. Just think ahead, be patient and spend your energy enjoying the company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Are You Wasting\u00a0Time in Relationships?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">It\u2019s a new relationship, but you\u2019re not sure if they are really keen or not. How can you tell? Often we make excuses for the other persons behaviour or justify the situation to keep them as long as possible. But this is just wasting time for you both.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">1) <strong>Trust your instincts<\/strong> &#8211; If it feels wrong to begin with, chances are it probably is wrong. Look for someone where it feels right, it\u2019s easy, and relaxed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">2) <strong>Listen<\/strong> &#8211; If they tell you up front that they don\u2019t want a relationship, they don\u2019t want children, that their work is their life\u2026 whatever it is, LISTEN to them! If it\u2019s not in line with your values, respect it and move onto someone else.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">3) <strong>Actions speak louder than words<\/strong> &#8211; if they are always cancelling on you, texting when you\u2019re together, don\u2019t make eye contact, or worse; forget your name\u2026 then pay attention; they aren\u2019t interested.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">4) <strong>Effort<\/strong> &#8211; if they put very little effort into the relationship, then you are not high on their priority list. Don\u2019t settle for someone who puts no effort into the relationship. You deserve better.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">5) <strong>Honesty<\/strong> &#8211; most people tell little white lies, but if you are not honest about who you are, what you stand for and what your highest values are, then you are wasting time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Early in a relationship many of us hold onto hope.

If we always say negative or disheartening things about ourselves or about dating, then they will stick and become our reality. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Affirmations are a great way to change this habit and get into a new frame of mind. Make sure your affirmation is structured as though you already have what you want. Instead of saying \u201cplease send me a great love,\u201d say \u201cthank you for this great love.\u201d Here are 5 affirmations you can use to help find love:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">1) I love who I am, and I am loved just as I am.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">2) I am in a brilliant relationship filled with love, respect, humour and gratitude. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">3) My heart is always open and I radiate love.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">4) I am so happy and grateful for this loving relationship we have cultivated.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">5) I deserve this wondering relationship I am in and the love we share. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Sit quietly with your eyes closed and say your affirmation 5 times in the morning and 5 times at night. When you say it, feel the power and the reality of your words. Believe them and they will become your world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Yogi Green Juice &#8211; For A Big Energy Boost! <\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">People love sharing their juice recipes.

Once you go down the yoga path, nothing is ever the same. You need someone who fits in with your lifestyle, who understands your priorities and who has similar values. In my experience there are 6 things that most Yogi\u2019s need in a relationship:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>Non-Drinker &#8211;<\/strong> If you meet someone who is a big drinker, it can get boring really quickly. A glass of wine with dinner can be tolerated, but if they enjoy the buzz of getting drunk, chances are they are not truly existing on a higher conscious level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>Peace<\/strong> &#8211; some people just like to argue, gossip, or say cruel things. We certainly don\u2019t see aggressive behaviour as a sign of strength. The act of kindness and compassion is highly regarded and admired amongst all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>Healthy Eater<\/strong> &#8211; whether you are vegan, vegetarian or just health conscious, chances are you don\u2019t enjoy a greasy burger and a super sized coke. A relationship will be just that little bit easier if you can enjoy a meal together. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>Respecting Animals<\/strong> &#8211; the higher you rase your consciousness, the greater the chance you will feel more connected to nature and more compassion towards animals. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>Positive Energy<\/strong> &#8211; The energy of your partner can significantly affect you. If you live with an open heart and spiritual awareness, but your partner is always depressed or negative, you will feel it deeply and it will affect your relationship. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>Love for the Planet<\/strong> &#8211; maybe you recycle everything, grow your own vegetables, use solar power or just care about what happens to the planet. Being \u201cGreen\u201d is something that we share and bond over. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">If you feel the need to connect with someone on a similar level, someone who has similar values to you, then try <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\"><span class=\"s1\">www.yoga-singles.com<\/span><\/a> and meet like-minded people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>5 Types of \u2018Stress\u2019, How to Combat Them, &amp; Be At Peace<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>1) Bad Food<\/strong>: Junk food, sugar, meat and highly processed foods can cause your body a great deal of stress. You may find your body uses up more energy digesting bad food, than it actually gives your body. Coffee, tea and alcohol also over stimulate the body and add to tension. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>2) Difficult People<\/strong>: Your friends can end up being the cause of your stress. The best way to tell if someone is doing this to you is to check how you feel when you leave them. Do you feel worse than before, frustrated or anxious? If so, minimise the amount of time you spend with them, and if you have to see them, bring along another more joyful friend as a buffer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>3) Your Job<\/strong>: It\u2019s an obvious one, but many of us just accept it as a stress in our lives. Don\u2019t! Life is too precious to waste most of your day doing something you don&#8217;t like. Either learn to do your job without absorbing the stress, or change jobs immediately. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>4) Technology<\/strong>: We think we need it, but often we feel like a slave to it because its always there, flashing at us to do something. Remember YOU are in control of your technology. Put your phone down, limit yourself to only a couple of TV shows a week (if that), give yourself limited time for social media, and only use your computer when you absolutely have to. Instead, spend time just breathing, observe people, focus on the sounds around you and just sit still.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\"><strong>5) Your Mind<\/strong>: No matter what is going on with the first four stresses, if your mind is not in the right place you will feel stressed no matter what. Meditate for at least 20 minutes a day to give yourself time to reflect, calm your mind, clear your thoughts and relax. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Once you can learn to live with minimal stress life will seem easier and happier. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1548&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1537&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1519&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Live Fearlessly<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">You live, love and play without fear.

Really?<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">From there on we proceeded to attend yoga classes together, meditation workshops, lunch at vegan cafes, juice bars, party at kirtan events and talk about spirituality and personal development for hours. I never knew I could have a relationship like this!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">We realised that there is a whole world of people out there, just like us, that have similar values, and <strong>chances are you don&#8217;t want to go to the local pub for steak, chips and a beer.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Most mismatched\/disastrous relationships are due to a difference in values. So we thought; wouldn\u2019t it be great if there was one dating website where you could meet people just like us? <strong>Like-minded individuals who share a love of healthy eating, spirituality, mindfulness and meditation. People who follow a Yogic way of life!<\/strong>\u00a0And so, Yoga Singles was born.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1386&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2366&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2311&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_facebook][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_pinterest][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_tweetmeme type=&#8221;horizontal&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_button title=&#8221;Register Now&#8221; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; color=&#8221;btn-info&#8221; href=&#8221;https:\/\/www.yoga-singles.com\/?register=1&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]Life is way too short, moments pass us by quickly.
