Focus On: Jennifer Ellinghaus

The Focus On series is all about sharing the diversity of meditation journeys and experiences. An opportunity to come together and share stories, practices and insights .. to listen and learn from each other.

I met Jennifer at a Website Development Workshop!  Who would have thought .. you never expect to meet one of your community at these things!  I just happened to arrive a little late and took the seat next to Jennifer .. and then at morning tea break we had a chat .. something about the need for a good coffee and how the machine might work :)  

After the workshop we stood on the cold Melbourne sidewalk and introduced ourselves properly ..  she was a yoga teacher, a Melbournian, a traveller and an AUTHOR!  I knew then and there, that I wanted to know more about Jennifer's book .. and asked her a few email's later to share her thoughts in our Focus On series.

Since then, Jennifer has begun writing another book (still a secret) and is making plans to travel to Antarctica (one of her big life dreams). She is an inspiration!

Tell us about your Special Interest
Yoga and travel are my two main passions. My passion for yoga began while on holiday in Thailand many years ago, when I attended a workshop on establishing a ‘home practice’. I first started my ‘home’ practice many years ago on holiday in Morocco. I had read somewhere that it is better to practise for a short time each day than for an extended period once a week. So I decided that if I couldn’t practise yoga for 15 minutes each day when on holiday, when could I? I took up the challenge and have never stopped. Yoga has been my constant. It has allowed me to enjoy the freedom of travel and living away from home while staying centred and grounded.
