Dru Yoga with Mum, Garangula Polo, Bowral for dinner and Shearing again.

  As we prepare for another term of school I reflect on all the fun we have had this holidays. As you can see in the photos my mum is fitter and healthier than ever with plans to start more classes in Young at the Yoga Tree Studio. We practiced some yoga in a quiet part of Vaucluse House over Easter while the rest of the family wandered around the lovely old homestead.  For anyone who doesn’t know my mum, Trish Slack-Smith, she is the kindest person I know who is a genuinely happy person.

Our four daughters absolutely love coming back to the farm  and in the holidays they don't really want to do anything else aside from ride horses, go out and help Howard on the farm and play with the new puppies.

This year I have raised the bar in what I expect of myself on many levels. Over the past few months I have increased my fitness, improved my yoga practice, watched my eating patterns and shifted  thoughts and emotions to a higher standard. Consequently my lifestyle is reflecting these choices. Anything seems possible and life feels free, open, abundant
