The main and only purpose of the newsletter this week is to have an excuse to show my love for dogs. Thank you to National Dog Day tomorrow 😂

I think I was inspired by watching Denise's gorgeous doggy leaning over her during her final Savasana last Saturday, asking for attention! Don't you find that your creatures gravitate to you while you're on the mat? I so love seeing them; one of the delights of being able to peer into your homes when you practise.

So, for this week, here's a random selection of pictures of people doing yoga with dogs. Something that makes me disproportionately happy and I hope will make you smile too! Enjoy...

Let's not forget our Cats! Savasana at its best

“If you can sit quietly after difficult news; if in financial downturns you remain perfectly calm; if you can see your neighbours travel to fantastic places without a twinge of jealousy; if you can happily eat whatever is put on your plate; you can fall asleep after a day of running around without a drink or a pill; if you can always find contentment just where you are: you are probably a dog.

- Jack Kornfield

Feel free to send me ALL the pictures of your animals, please!

The dog days of summer seem to be coming to an end.

Roll on September...

Let's practise.
