Yoga by Nicole

What is something that really really challenges you, makes you so nervous you could almost throw up, and puts you completely out of your comfort zone? For me, it is definitely being on camera and filming myself. And that's why I decided to start filming my podcast Yoga by Nicole! Because if we don't do things that scare us, and go to places that make us really really uncomfortable, we stay stuck in the same place, we don't grow, and we don't experience anything new. That's why I also decided to tell you what specifically helped me to take that step out of my comfort zone, sharing with you my 5 most important tips! I hope you will enjoy this episode, and if you watch the video, you can find it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxoGKJ4sueI&t=24s I'd love to hear your feedback, and you can always write to me on Instagram @yogabynicole_ or on my website www.yogabynicole.com

We have such a strong tendency of focusing on all the things that are not going right in our lives, all the things that are missing, and everything we dislike about ourselves. A lot of our attention and focus is consumed by negative and simply unnecessary stuff that doesn't make us feel better in any way, but quite the contrary makes us unhappy and miserable. Shifting our focus on the things that we actually really want our attention to go is therefore one of the most important things, and in this week's episode, I'm talking you through 5 different ways of shifting your focus to where you want it to go! I hope you'll enjoy it!! Sending you lots of love

I think we all know that comparison is the thief of joy, right? But why oh why are we then doing it, all the time??

I hope you'll enjoy the episode, and I would love love love to hear from you!

Having a morning routine was for the longest time something that couldn't be more unrealistic for me to establish in my life. I loved to snooze as long as possible and then just rush into my day. I still can't believe I was able to create a morning routine that I now really stick to and that has been of the most transforming things in my life, and if I can do it, then you can definitely too! In this week's episode, I tell you all about why you absolutely should have a morning routine in your life, what my routine looks like, and how I was able to make it a fixed habit. I hope you'll enjoy this episode, and I would love to hear what you think, and what your mornings currently look like!

It's really crazy how we often (or most of the time) talk to ourselves in a negative and destructive way, and criticize ourselves in a way we would never do with anyone else.

In this week's episode, I want to share with you my main tips for how I was able to resolve so many of these issues and create a muuuch more balanced life for myself!

In this interview she tells us about various topics like how she figured out what to do in life and how she became a yoga teacher.

This is my last episode from Cape Town! I've spent the past 6 months here and I can’t believe how fast they passed by!!!

This episode is a special one! It's my first guided meditation and it's intended to help you recognize and nurture the love you already have for yourself. It's not intended to calm your mind or free you from thoughts, but rather help you discover the bountiful love that already lies within you =) I developed this meditation during my first yoga teacher training in India (which was a very special and transformational time for me). This meditation definitely helped me find and strengthen the love I have for myself. That being said, it takes constant work for me to stay connected to my true self. I find meditation as the best possible thing I can do to nourish my self-love. Therefore I really have to encourage you to do the same with this meditation or any other self-love meditation. I hope you enjoy my first guided meditation and I thank you so so much for listening to it! Please share your thoughts and let me know if you'd like to hear similar meditations in the future :-) So much love from me to you, Namaste
