After a fun day at the beach with Tula, Mali and Sunni, Rafferty and Sunni walked homewards together.
As they walked away from the seaside they shouted "Bye Tula! Bye Mali!" and waved. They walked up the path and over the hill and into Sunni's park.
It had been a hot day but Sunni and Rafferty were quite cool after their day at the beach. Rafferty noticed that Sunni's sunflower seedlings were looking very hot and tired. "look at your seedlings Sunni!" said Rafferty "I think they need a big cool drink".
"You're right Rafferty, lets get the watering can and water them..." replied Sunni.
So they picked up the watering can and filled it with lovely fresh water. "Do you know that everyone is supposed to drink around a litre of water a day? asked Sunni.
"Really!, maybe I should be drinking more" said Rafferty.
"Yes" said Sunni as he sprinkled the cool fresh water over the seedlings. "and even more when you exercise!"
Rafferty was still feeling full of beans and he started doing a Warrior Pose which is a move he learnt from Epona Yoga and said "so after I do my Warrior poses and other yoga I should always have a long cool drink of water.
"Would you like to try the Warrior pose Sunni? You do it like this... First you stand up straigh and then you lung forward on one leg, and straighten your back and reach to the sun" said Rafferty as he did the move again. Sunni copied him.
"You both looked very proud and strong" said Mr Sun.
"Thank you Mr Sun" they replied as they reached for a big drink of water.
The Epona Yoga poses are detailed in the Epona Yoga Adventures of Sunni, Tula, Mali and Rafferty book with complete instructions and the benefits of each pose. Each pose is illustrated on teh Epona Yoga mat for easy reference. You can buy the mat, book and DVD online.
Rafferty is a male and he is a little proud. He has strength of character and body, is organised and a born leader. Rafferty teaches us about co operation and helping out in the Epona Yoga DVD. His poses are easy to see and copy on his Epona Yoga Mat.

Rafferty does Yoga at the Beach
Friday, May 22, 2009
Rafferty found everyone at the beach. They were all doing yoga poses and as he said hello he walked down to the waters edge and felt the cool foamy water on his feet.
"Hello guys!" said Rafferty. "have you tested the water yet?" he asked.
"Not yet" giggled Mali and she skittered over to Rafferty and dropped the tip of her tail into the bright blue water. "oohhhh - that's great" she said as she jumped into the water making a great big splash!
The splash went all over Sunni and Tula, so Tula jumped in too while Sunni was content to stand with Rafferty with his feet in the cooling water.
"Having Fun? asked Mr Sun to no one in particular.
"Yes we are thank you Mr Sun" replied Rafferty. "It was a great idea to come here - thank you for telling us all about it".
"Have you every done yoga with your feet in the water Sunni?" asked Rafferty.
"No I haven't, but I bet Tula has!" replied SUnni.
"Try this" said Rafferty and he showed Sunni how to do the Half Moon pose. Balancing on his right leg and wing with straight legs Rafferty lifted his other leg out behind him and stretched forward with his left wing. Rafferty had his foot firmly on the sand and worked hard to keep his balance.
"I can do that too" said Sunni as he copied the pose. Sunni wobbled a bit at first but after a few attempts he was very good at it.

A trip to the seaside...
Tuesday, May 19, 2009
" Hello Rafferty" said Mr Sun. "I just spoke to Sunni and he is going down to see Tula at the seaside - can you go there too?"
Rafferty jumped up and stretched. "That sounds like a fun day out Mr Sun, I think I shall join them after I stretch a bit more".
Rafferty likes to stretch and fluff out all his feathers so he stood very still with his feet wide apart, bent his left knee and put his left wing tip on the ground next to his foot, and then he reached up towards Mr Sun with his right wing. "Ahh that's better" said Rafferty "I always feel better after I stretch like that! It's called the Standing Spine Twist Mr Sun".
"It looks like a good stretch Rafferty" replied Mr Sun.
"oh it is! but I'd better go or I'll miss everyone" said Rafferty and off he went through the farmyard towards the park on his way to see Tula at the beach.

Rafferty Has A Farmyard Visit
Friday, May 01, 2009
When Sunni visited the Farmyard he and Rafferty had a chat and walked around the farmyard. They caught up on all the latest news, like the upcoming classes that are being held during June at the Millennium Gym in Hornsby, and all the emails they have received from children who are practising Epona Yoga.
Rafferty and Sunni did the Kneeling pose and the Volcano pose together in the middle of the farmyard as Mr Sun looked on.

Rafferty Wakes Up To A New Day
Tuesday, April 28, 2009
Just as it was starting to get light outside I lifted my head in the barn and gave a big “Cock a doodle Doo”
I start every day with a big Cock-A –Doodle-Doo, it helps everyone on the farm wake up and get started with their chores for the day.
When I give my second Cock-A-Doodle-Doo for the day. I stretch my body into the Warrior pose and then give my crow. It wakes everyone up and it feels good to be big and strong. Mrs Chicken and all the little chicks wake up to my crow and so does Farmer Tim.
Farmer Tim opened the barn and said “Good Morning Rafferty, nice day today… out you all go” as he shooed us all out of the barn and into the farmyard.I looked around and I could see my friend Sunni coming over the hill to see me…
