GhoSts

another Kids Club on 26 of July..
8 children has made a lot of ghosts
over the Turku's castle!
in a castle there are not only prince and princess but also ghosts and they can be everywhere!
children discovered that ghosts are part of the castle and very funny!!

mostly of them are hidden by humans but sometimes they appear and scare people just by their presence.. 
there's no reason to be afraid.. 
they just like to play hide&seek as a child!!

YogaTime

in the beginig of June we had a yoga weekend in Vano (see more in vAno vAnner) and I decided to follow by myself and also to do it every week with Vano inhabitants and guests. So we already had 4 yoga classes!
We learned dog position, sun salutation, tree position and many other asanas.. I like also to mix yoga with art and sound. So we also did some warming exercises for the voice and on the third lesson we also paint after a short meditation (see the picture above)..
The best of this experience is looking people trying to get relaxed and meditated after the sound of the Tibetan bell.. 
I wonder what they think: problems, wishes, nothing..
Here it's quite easy to get relaxed.. the wind is blowing, the birds are singing, the rain and the sun.. we are surrounded by nature and some times the silent it's better than relaxing music..
Yoga classes are every Monday, from 19 to 20 at the Cultural House!
