they can access HHIs online education program and take 931 courses for

computer and information, languages, and other on-the-job training.

Through this win-win program, HHI expects its subcontractors to increase

productivity and quality, leading to sustainable skill development.

Order for Moss-type LNG CarriersHHI won a USD 850 million order to build four 150,000 m3 Moss-type

LNG carriers from Malaysias state-owned Petronas on October 11.

The double-hulled LNG carriers are scheduled to be delivered to

the owner from the second half of 2016. The contract also includes an

option for four additional same class LNG carriers.The LNG carriers will be constructed with four independent self-

supporting spherical tanks that have more reliable performance when

loading and unloading cargo, and have greater resistance to sloshing

forces compared with membrane tank system.

HHI, the only Korean shipbuilder that can build Moss-type LNG

carriers, has built 15 of these LNG carriers since 1994.

Order for Wheel Loaders in BrazilHHIs Construction Equipment Division signed a contract with Brazils

government for the supply of 731 wheel loaders on October 10.

Under the contract, the wheel loaders will be built by HHIs

construction equipment factory in Rio de Janeiro for delivery by

April 2014. This order represents 18% of Brazils market demand for

wheel loaders, marking the largest order HHI has ever gained from

this region.

The new wheel loaders will be mobilized to six states in Brazil to

build up its agricultural infrastructure for farmland cultivation and

waterways.

HYUNDAI SAMHO HEAVY INDUSTRIES HSHI

HSHI Namings and DeliveriesHSHI delivered two ships in September: the last of four 82,000

DWT bulk carriers ordered by Kyla Shipping on September 26 and

the first of seven 7,300 unit PCTCs ordered by Hyundai Glovis on

October 4.

HSHI also held a naming ceremony for the Glovis SpiritPCTC on

September 26.

The vessel was named by Ms. Conny Xiong, Commercial and

Logistics Director of BYD AUTO, the charterer. Mr. K. B. Kim, CEO of

Hyundai Glovis and Mr. Ha Gyung-Jin, CEO of HSHI, and 80 guests

attended the naming ceremony.

Hyundai Samho in F1 Grand PrixRTL-T, Germanys biggest broadcaster, filmed part of their F-1 Grand Prix Racing

Broadcast in HSHIs shipyard on October 4. The German broadcaster has been

filming the F-1 Grand Prix since 1992 but this is the first race they have filmed in

Korea.

The production team used the shipyard as a backdrop to draw parallels between

the high technology of shipbuilding and that of Formula One. RTL-T focused on the

vessels HSHI is building and the yards production capacity during the programme.

Last year, a team from BBC filmed a similar documentary that tied in with the F-1

Grand Prix in Youngnam. That documentary featured a time lapse video of a very

large crude carrier being built.

Gold Hard Hat AwardMr. Choi Jang-jin, general manager of Safety and Health Department of HSHI

was awarded the Gold Hard Hat Award on September 26.

The award is presented by BG Group to promote and encourage their

safety policy to all partners. Nominees are decided according to their

partners recommendation.

Mr. Choi is the first Korean recipient of the award. He was presented with

the Gold Hard Hat Award by Mr. W. K. Chan, Site Manager of BG Group. Mr.

Choi has 30 years of experience in the after-sales service area for ships,

and his dedication for safety has now gained global recognition. The prize

money of USD 1,000 was donated to UNICEF.

The Worlds First On-landConstruction of LNG CarrierHSHI succeeded in building the worlds first LNG carrier on land on

October 6. The vessel was built and loaded out to the floating dock

on October 5, and finished launching the next day. It is a 162,000 m 3

class LNG carrier owned by Golar LNG.

HSHI has so far built 50 ships using this on-land construction

method. While other shipyards have built bulkers and tankers on

land, HSHIs experienced workforce was able to transfer skills from

those basic ships to the more technically demanding LNG carriers.

It is about 30% heavier than previous vessels built, and HSHI is

planning to build nine more LNG carriers by on-land construction.

A bout one hours drive from Ulsan you find Mt. Namsan in Gyeongju, a WorldHeritage registered part of nature, that I can highly recommend to visit fora hiking trip. That was where the HHI Autumn Gathering 2013 was heading on a

sunny Saturday in October.

According to the program from HHIs Shipbuilding Division we could either

choose to go hiking or to go sightseeing to the National Museum and Anapji.

Since the weather forecast was aiming to make this Saturday an A+, we had

prepared for the hiking. Ahead we had been power shopping at the department

store (read a pair of new hiking shoes and a pair of hiking pants) trying to match

the Korean dress code for outdoor activity and now we were excited to try it out.

14 busses started out from the HHI Seobu Gate and at the Namsan parking lot

at Tongiljeon, the west side of the mountain, the party divided into the hiking

and the museum groups. We were guided to a little path leading into the wood.

I had never been able to find that path alone, but the early birds from HHI had

already put up arrows to follow. If you choose to go there on your own trips I

recommend you follow the paths on the maps you find at the location.

Off we went in lockstep with a mountain stream on our left, steep mountain

wall on our right and treetops above us. This special shortcut was certainly

going uphill, pulse and path were rising and since the path was quite narrow it

was the point of no return for everybody, it was just not possible to make a safe

and legal U-turn and it gave us a great we-are in-this-together-feeling. Like a

long snorting train we worked our way towards one of the peaks. There we were

greeted with a beautiful view. It was time for a rest to let our pulse as well as thefocus go down. Beneath us we could enjoy the scenery of rice fields, rivers, and

nature beginning to wear the vestments of autumn.

Dotting the mountainsides of this forested peak were statues dating from

over a thousand years ago. Gyeongju is often called the museum without walls,

a name that fits Mt. Namsan perfectly. According to the facts researched so far,

about 122 relics of temples, 57 stone Buddhist images, and 64 stone pagodas

are scattered around the mountain, and it certainly is an open museum, no glass

walls, no curator, no rope to protect the historical monuments just a lot of trust

that hikers will show respect. The northern and eastern slopes do have a number

of sights to be seen. However, the bulk of the Buddhist statues and temples are

on the western face of Namsan.

Down again we were taken to Hyundai Hotel Gyeongju for a great BBQ party

and entertainment including four different live bands. The food at this hotel is

excellent and so is the view over Bomun Lake. When the guitarist from the band

Sound Box warmed up the guitar to play rock and rolls it was impossible to stay

seated and in spite of tired hiking legs people got up to dance. As a salute to a

great day among beautiful nature, Buddha and historical points of interest, the

day ended with a fabulous fireworks display on a clear dark October sky.

A big thanks to HHI for a well organized autumn gathering. I can highly

recommend climbing Mt. Namsan. There are several options, do a little research

on the Internet ahead and have in mind South Korea has two Mt. Namsan, the

other is the one in Seoul. My family is definitely going to visit Mt. Namsan in

Gyeongju again.

Autumn Gathering: Mt. Namsan By Lisbet Bratland

Mt. Namsan was registered as a World Heritage Site

in December 2000. Mt. Namsam is comprised of Mt.

Geumosan (468 m) located in southern Gyeongju, Mt.

Gowisan (494 m), Mt. Dodangsan, and Mt. Yangsan all

of which are called Mt. Namsan collectively. Mt. Namsan

is not that high, Geumobong Peak, Gowibong Peak,

covering an area of about 8 km (north-south) by 12 km

(east-west) with about 40 valleys where numerous

places sacred to Buddhism are scattered and fostering

lots of legends and myths.

A utumn is in the air this November, making it the perfect time to look upand enjoy the night sky. I usually dream of a romantic autumn with thestars shining brightly in the sky.

Since ancient times, Koreans have had an interest in the skies. In ancient

societies, astronomy had a deep connection with the governing people and

the rise and fall of kingdoms, so they considered astronomical observation to

be important. The ancient architecture and feel of Korea continues today in

Gyeongju. Cheomseongdae is shaped like a traditional liquor jar; not quite 10

m tall. It was used as an observatory during the Shilla dynasty and its shape

shows the harmony of straight and curved lines, looking somewhat like a

bottle, with stones laid on top of each other in the shape of a hash symbol (#).

Even though it seems quite small, it has been standing for over 1,000 years in

the palace grounds. The background of Cheomseongdae is one of agriculture:

the movements of the moon, sun and stars dictated the cycle of sowing and

reaping the fields. The night sky of Gyeongju is a good way to appreciate

the romance of old Korea. Near Cheomseongdae, there is another beautifulsight, Anapji. It is directly connected to the palaces of the Shilla Dynasty. The

beautiful lighting at night makes it the perfect place for sightseeing, and the

evening performances at Anapji will make for a unique experience. I hope

that you will have the chance to see some of these amazing places at night,

when they are most beautiful.

Autumn is the season where the stars are at their least bright all

year, but it is still a good season to easily find the constellations.

You can search constellations such as Pisces, Andromeda,

Pegasus, Cassiopeia, and others in Koreas autumn sky. It is a

good experience looking at the stars through a telescope.

Ulsan Science Museum is located in Ok-dong, Nam-gu,

Ulsan. This is a good place to look at the stars and see several

exhibitions, a planetarium, science labs, and classrooms for

educational courses. The planetarium is on the sixth floor and

has ten sets of telescopes. You should make a reservation by

the 25th of the month for astronomical observation because the

program is very popular with families. The exhibitions are almost

entirely in Korean, but there are some English programs available

for visiting schools. A pamphlet in English is also at the front desk.

There are many special programs and performances to enjoy, but

you need to book them online in Korean. The planetarium onthe first floor also had various programs and the space image

experience class is always open. Every second Saturday, they

hold an English Space World class for children ages 10 to 15 years

old. Another popular class is the Tale of the Stars in English held

every third Saturday.

A Story of ChrysanthemumFlower Language: Cleanliness,

Innocence, Chastity

White: Faithfulness, Truth, Gratitude

Yellow: Disappointment, One-sided love

Red: I love you

Folk TaleIn classic myth, a man named Tagaes who loved flowers very much. He felt sad and hated

to see withered flowers and so decided to make his own fadeless flower. He melted hisgold ring down and mixed it with fragrant spring water to make golden water. He then

cut out every single beautiful flower petal and planted it. However, people made fun of

him seeing that the flowers had no fragrance. He was so disappointed but the goddess

of flowers breathed new life into the flower to make him happy.

Cultural Significance and SymbolismIn some countries (eg, France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Poland, Hungary, Croatia), incurve

chrysanthemums are symbolic of death and are used only for funerals or on graves,

while other types carry no such symbolism; similarly, in China, Japan, and Korea, white

chrysanthemums are symbolic of lamentation and grief. In some other countries, they

represent honesty. In the United States, the flower is usually regarded as positive and

cheerful, except in New Orleans.

In Australia, the chrysanthemum is sometimes given

to mothers for Mother's Day, which falls in May in the

southern hemisphere's autumn. Men may sometimes

also wear it in their lapels to honor mothers, although

the flower is naturally in season during the southern

hemisphere's spring and early summer.

In China, the chrysanthemum is one of the "Four

Gentlemen" of China (the others being the plum

blossom, the orchid, and bamboo). The chrysanthemum

is said to have been favored by Tao Qian, an influentialChinese poet, and is symbolic of nobility. It is also one of

the four symbolic seasonal flowers. Chrysanthemums

were first cultivated in China as a flowering herb as far

back as the 15th century BC.

Curious scenes ofSuneng

The state-administered college

entrance exam is a unique cultural

experience. The stock market

opening and closing times are

delayed by an hour while many

government offices and private

companies open late to ease rushhour traffic so that students can

arrive at test centers on time.

Drivers refrain from honking their horns when passing schools and

aircraft are denied landing and take-off during Korean and English

listening tests. As part of efforts to ensure that the most crucial test

in a student's life runs smoothly, the government imposes various

traffic controls and anti-noise measures. The subway runs more

frequently in the morning rush hour, and traffic is banned within

200 meters of test centers. Police operate a temporary call center

to serve students wishing to ride in a patrol car or on the back of

a motorcycle to reach their test centers, while dispatching more

than 13,000 officials across the country for test takers' safety and

convenience.

Many parents remain outside

even after their children enter the

test venue, some praying for their

childrens success in the life-decision

test. Temples and churches across

the country are packed with mothers

praying for their children.

It is a day of supreme importance

to a Korean person's academic life.

KOREAN SCENE

T he College Scholastic Ability Test (suneng) is a type ofstandardized test accepted by South Korean universities. Thetest is offered every November, but the exact dates may change

annually. This year the test is scheduled for November 7. In South

Koreas hyper-competitive education system, high marks in the exam

are essential for entry into top universities, which is in turn crucial

to securing prestigious jobs. Many stressed-out students spend

sleepless nights before the exam as parents crowd churches and

Buddhist temples to pray for good results. Suneng is even described

as the chance to make or break ones future. Of the students takingthe exam, 20% are taking it for at least a second time.

Superstitions ofSuneng

Two kinds of luck-wishing products, yeot (traditional Korean

candy) and chabssalddeok (rice cakes with red bean paste

filling) are the most common gifts given to students

because their sticky attribute is associated with a phrase

which reads stick to the test' meaning to pass the test.

According to historical records, scholars included

bits of yeot when they packed and set out on the dayof national government official exams, to give them something

to chew on.

The tradition has been transformed in the present day to the widely

practiced ritual of plasteringyeoton the gates of schools in which students

are taking tests. It is believed that like the sticky nature of the candy, the

A mong the many bizarre informal holidays in Korea, we have Pepero Daywaiting for us every November 11. While other countries pay tribute to thesacrifices made during times of war, we have set aside November 11 for a much more

lighthearted holiday.

Pepero is a long and thin cookie stick dipped in chocolate manufactured by Lotte

Confectionary since 1983. Since Pepero shares a similar shape as the figure 1, it has

inspired an annual ritual of young lovers and office workers exchanging Pepero every

November 11. Pepero Day may seem similar to Valentines Day in the sense that it is

one of the many holidays couples enjoy as a sign of love. But Pepero Day conveys

a larger message since it is not only a day for couples but a special day for friends,

families, co-workers, students, and teachers. The day has evolved into a day of

gratitude.

From large supermarkets to small convenience stores, special Pepero gift items

are displayed in time with the holiday. Lotte, as the host, launches commercials and

special promotions every November and makes almost 55% of its annual Peperosales in the month alone. Since its appearance in mid-1990s, the day has become a

cultural phenomenon, widely enjoyed regardless of age and gender.

There is a lot of controversy surrounding Pepero Day since many consider the

holiday as Lottes clever marketing gimmick to boost sales. Lotte denies the rumor to

have created the day but claims to have started encouraging the holiday only after

noticing a jump in sales around November 11. Despite all suspicion, it is known to

have originated in 1994 by middle school girls in Busan who exchanged pepero sticks

as gifts to wish one another to grow as tall and slender as a pepero.

Regardless of Pepero Day's origins, many stock up on these little confections to

be ready to use them as an expression of their esteem and affections for those they

hold near and dear.

student will stick to the school of their choice, in other

words onto the roster of names of people who will be

admitted in the coming year. The reason for giving and

receiving glutinous ricecakes is similar.

Pickaxe or fork-shaped chocolates are

also one of the favorite gifts for the test-

takers, hoping that those who eat the

chocolate may pick the right answers.

What students eat is also very important. Oneshould not eat eggs as the breaking of eggshells

will lead to the breaking of luck. Seaweed soup is also

to be avoided, because just like the slippery nature of

the seaweed, there is the chance the test-taker will

slip right off the roster of successful candidates.

Miniature brooms are also given in hopes that

students sweep up all the right answers. Rolls of

toilet paper or tissue paper are a peculiar choice. It is

a play on the word pulda () which means to blow

and at the same time to solve.

This year, practical items are also being exchanged

by students, parents, and friends. A digestive aid is

one of the many newer gift ideas. The students can

drink the gift to settle nervous stomachs, but it is also

given to help them digest the questions to the test

thoroughly.

Good luck charms and precautions all mean well

and another good thing about the sharing of such

lighthearted gifts is that they can lessen the pressure

and stress liable to creep up on students. But like

any other superstitions, they shouldnt be taken too

seriously.

Ulsan Hash House Harriers #666 By James Hyde

New Staff of House Administration Department

H ello. My name is Zu-mee, a new employee of the Housing Administration Department. I will be in chargeof managing Hyundai Foreigners Compound. I am so honored to do an interesting job in the HousingAdministration Department and meet all of you. I want to be a bridge to connect everyone in Hyundai Foreigners

Compound and the Housing Administration Department.

If you have a question or request about the compounds, please send me an email at zumee@hhi.co.kr or call

052-202-2253. I am ready to answer your questions immediately and nicely!! Thank you.

O n this much awaited glorious day, a gathering of 90-plus old and newhashers, many in fancy dress, and 3 dogs, collected commemorativet-shirts, badges and towels and headed for the familiar start pointSimcheonggol-gil.

Due to the numbers there was an immediate bottleneck, but this soon

thinned as the ascent progressed. Everybody managed at their own pace

and a refreshment stop was available to all at the summit viewpoint. The

trail was now a lot easier following the undulations of the summit ridge.

After a particularly stiff ascent the first of two escape routes was available

to tired trekkers, and a number of our gathering took the opportunity of a

quick but tricky path down.

Meanwhile the runners and walkers took a left turn down then up

to the helipad and turned right at the army camp, skirting the hill in the

road through a minefield. Finally merging with a concrete road, a hairpin

bend found us descending to Seongbulsa Temple, passing strange stone

COMMUNITY NEWS

cairns, another minefield and bamboo strands, a farming community

straddling the base of the valley and eventually meeting the escape

route travellers in the sunshine. It was ON-ON back to the start point.Back at the HFC Clubhouse, Harimau and friends prepared a

barbecue of burgers and sausages and a fine selection of salad

and dressings, followed by baked apple pie. All settled down for an

afternoon of refreshments and entertainment by our friends in the

band Limousine. Some hashers still had the energy to hit the dance

floor. Thanks to all those who helped out with the food and clearing

up.

Ulsan Hash House Harriers run in all weather. Please come and

enjoy a walk or a run through the Ulsan countryside with a friendly

bunch of people. Our next hash will be on November 10 and 24.

HYUNDAI FOREIGN SCHOOL (HFS)

S tudents from Hyundai Foreign Schoolwere offered the opportunity to tourthe shipyard on October 18. Our tour beganat the Asan Memorial Hall where we watched

a video presentation explaining the various

divisions of Hyundai Heavy Industries. Most of

the students readily associate Hyundai with

shipbuilding so it was interesting to learn that

they are involved in many other areas such as

green energy.

After the video we toured the rest of Asan

Memorial Hall where we learned about the

history of Hyundai in Ulsan and the companys

founder, Chung Ju-yung. Of particular interest

were the recreation the students had of Chung

Ju-yungs humble office and the giant map on

which we could see our school and its size in

relation to the shipyard. We also saw models of

the various vessels and construction projects

that HHI has been involved with. The students

were fascinated by the models but had trouble

appreciating the scale of some of the thingsthey are seeing. It is difficult to comprehend

the big numbers 300,000 deadweight

tonnes or $1 billion. These measurements are

so far outside their normal experience.

After Asan Hall we boarded our bus for

a driving tour of the yard. Again the scale

of the things we were seeing inspired awe.

Most students were able to understand the

basic process of building a vessel when it was

likened to Lego building blocks. Steel is welded

together to make small blocks that are then

assembled into larger and larger blocks. These

big blocks are lifted into the drydock in huge

slices to be joined together to a make a ship.

The students also had fun playing Spot My

Daddys Ship.

During our drive around the yard we also had

the opportunity to get off the bus and take a

walking tour of the engine assembly building.Here the immense engines needed to propel

the ships are constructed. The students were

able to get some comprehension of what they

were seeing because they could relate it to

engines they had seen in their cars. We were

also amazed when a steel part the size of a

house gracefully glided over our heads.

Our visit to the yard provided a fascinating

insight into the workings of the company that

is the reason most of us are in Ulsan. We also

came away with great memories and a new

found respect for the work of HHI and the

other companies that operate in the yard.

By Daniel Green, HFS Teacher

A few weeks ago the school went on a shipyard tour which I really enjoyed. I learned a lot ofwhat happens in a shipyard. I never knew a ship was so expensive! Some of them were over$1 million; we also got to see Mr. Chungs first pair of shoes and what his office had looked like. He

had so much money but kept all his old belongings. The best part was that we got to see the engine

room! We saw inside the engines, the pistons and the drive shafts. We were told about 2-stroke,

4-stroke, etc.

While we were sitting in the bus on the way to the engine room, we saw the drydocks. I never

knew about this. I was always so curious about how they build the ships. Then on our way out we

saw the drydocks being filled up and a filled one. I was amazed by what goes on behind the scenes

of what HHI does and some of our parents do! I have never been in a shipyard before so I really

enjoyed the tour. By Michelle Barrett, Year 9 student

Listen to Korea, PansoriBy Nam Su-ah, Hyundai Arts Center

P

ansori is a type of traditional performance which tells a themed

story in the form of musical theater. It consists of two musicianssharing the spotlight: a singer and a drummer. Pansori was listed as a

Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO

on November 7, 2003, helping bring recognition to this unique form.

Pansori is often referred to as Korean opera. A full story, madang, is so

long that it usually takes hours to complete. One example is the Song of

Chunhyangwhich takes over eight hours to perform, without a break.

Pansori emerged during the mid-Joseon era (1392-1910), but gained

popularity in the 19th century. There was no stage, so the performance

took place on the ground close to the audience. The audience can also

participate in the performance by shouting encouragement to the singer.

While traditional pansori was passed down orally, many people are

still writing and performing contemporary versions of pansori. Instead

of telling of legends from long ago, many of them are singing about

our modern life; concerns, interests, and lessons learnt. These modern

performances are often much shorter than traditional pansori and use

modern language, making it easier for the audience to understand.

The young leader of new pansori is Jaram Lee. She won the Best Actress

Award at the international theatre festival Kontakt 2010. In addition,

Sacheon-ga by Jaram Lee was invited to Festival OFF, Avignon, 2011. The

show was soldout in record time. Jaram Lee will be on stage performing

Sacheon-gawith English subtitles at Hyundai Arts Center in December.

Come and enjoy an intangible part of Korea.

BEAUTY & HEALTH

Ever wondered why the sniffles begin when the weather changes? How aboutwhy the flu hits when the weather gets cold? Surely there must be a connection

between the seasons and health because the flu, coughs, and colds tend to hit when

the weather starts changing and becoming cooler. Autumn is here in Ulsan and I am

sure everyone has a friend or colleague sniffling away next to them. Annoying you,

you might say.

Most of the common colds experienced by the majority of people are caused

by viruses, and then superimposed by bacterial infections when prolonged, gone

untreated or when the bodys defence weakens. When the weather gets colder,

people tend to congregate inside buildings more and with this comes the inevitable

opportunity for viruses to spread. It doesnt help that schools are in full swing during

these months and children are great carriers sharing the bugs around. Because of

the close contact to each other from being indoors, chance of transmission is higher

compared to warmer times when people are outside more. Therefore its not the cold

that causes one to be sick, but the ease for viruses to spread.

Viruses have the tendency to prefer dry air and therefore spread more through

dry air. When it gets cooler outside, air is naturally drier, and with heaters on inside

the home, the inside air gets even drier, causing an even easier spread of viruses.

Therefore, keeping windows and room doors slightly ajar can help. The nose is the

bodys guardian to prevent bugs entering the body. In the colder months, a reduction in

temperature causes a reduction in the circulation in the nose and less defence cells or

white blood cells are present to attack bugs entering the body via the nose. Therefore,

you have a greater chance of falling ill over the autumn months and more still over

winter.Instead of fighting the cold or flu caused

by viruses and bacteria, it is better to

protect yourself from contracting these

bugs in the first place. As germs pass easily

with contact, ensuring that you wash your

hands regularly is always a good start.

Try to get some exercise in your routine,

even better if outdoors. Keep up with

the fluids and maintain a balanced diet.

Remember soft drinks, juices and cordials

have preservatives in them, so sticking to

water is best! The body has an incredible

ability to scream out when thirsty (you get

that urge to drink). However, by that point

you are already one litre short. So the next

time you feel thirsty, keep in mind, you

need to fuel up not just to quench your

thirst but a few glasses over and above that. A well-hydrated body also helps the

immune system and your skin!

If you didnt hear it enough from your mum, here goes: Eat your greens! You can

never eat too many of them and they are super powerhouses of vitamins, minerals and

fibre which are great for the immune system, the bones, skin, and even the digestive

system! So pile up on leafy greens throughout autumn. Fruits and vegetables are

brimming with antioxidants, great as cell protectors, andyour body will love you even more if you reward it with

plenty of these. Skin can get very dry with the chilly air.

Dry skin can make you feel itchy all over, so plenty of

moisturising over the skin on your arms, elbows and legs

can help keep skin luscious. Dont forget to moisturise lips

too to prevent cracks and keep them inviting throughout

the season! You are best to begin this routine in autumn

before the colder and drier winter arrives. It seems that

we busy folks dont ever get enough sleep. Chaos, work

stress, and the thoughts of the end of year approaching

seem to take the toll on our minds, body and sleep. With

adequate sleep, we allow ourselves the chance to shine

during the day, so make a commitment to get a good

nights sleep! A good serving of seven to eight hours of

sleep can truly make a difference to how you feel, keep

you more alert, allow for better concentration and improve

stress levels. Plus as a bonus, it helps skin to look relaxed

and refreshed. We all can get a little down during autumn,

this contributed by the lack of sunlight in the sky. Moods

can change, so whenever you see a little sun about, try

grabbing a patch of sunshine. A brisk five minute walk in

the sunshine can certainly be a good pick up to any mood.

Of course, wear sunscreen when youre out and about!Finally, autumn is also time for that yearly flu

vaccination shot. The trivalent flu vaccine which gets

updated every year is recommended to protect against

the influenza viruses A and B. So you and your family

are best to be protected against these strains of viruses

with a one shot vaccination. As the colours and lights of

beautiful autumn fill the air and everyone rushes on their

way to keep warm in the cooler weather, keep in mind

the little things you can do for yourself and family to stay

healthy and energised. Enjoy autumn everybody!

Ardha ChandrasanaHalf Moon Pose

By Karen Whiteheadwww.ananayoga.com karen@ananayoga.com

T his pose is one of my favourites, I believe it is because the pose opensout the front body leading to a sense of both physical and mentalopenness.

Start in the pose from last month - Extended Side Angle Pose with the

right leg bent at 90 degrees and the left leg stretched out behind, both feet

rooted into the floor. The right arm stretches out to 12 inches above the

right leg and the left leg comes in by about a foot to allow this to happen.

The right hand now roots into the ground (or use a block if your arm is not

long enough). Stare at a gaze point on the floor to help balance and bring

the left leg up into the air until it is in alignment with the rest of your body.Start to cultivate a feeling of stability and then lift the left arm up to the

sky. Next open up the front body the head can also start to turn upwards,

until eventually the face turns up to the sky as well. Hold for three breaths

to start with, working up to ten breaths. To come out of the pose, bend the

right leg, and allow the left leg to come down to the floor, lift the body up

and allow the right hand to lift off the floor. It feels good to come into Warrior

2 from Half Moon Pose. Repeat on the other side.

Beginners can practise this pose against a wall to get the feeling of

openness. Ardha Chandrasana strengthens the abdomen, thighs, spine,

buttocks, and ankles. It stretches the groin, hamstrings, calves, shoulders,

and chest. It also improves co-ordination and a sense of balance. It is said to

help relieve sciatica, backache, stress, and fatigue.

P ush ups, Incline Push ups, Decline Push ups, andDiamond Push ups will all help build muscle mass in thechest, back arms and shoulders. Below I have demonstrated

the regular push up and the decline push up.

These two exercises will provide balance for all and any

workout. If you incorporate these exercises no matter what

your routine you will see better results.

1. Push up/Incline Push ups: There is nothing fancy abouta push up so keep it simple.

Spine straight and neutral

Keep your weight over your chest bringing your nose

down in front of your finger tips

Low, slow, controlled and a full extension

2. Decline Push up: The same as above but raise your feet

using a bench or sturdy platform.

Go as low as you can for better

results

Another important and effective bodyweight exercise is the

Planks. Quite simply the plank is a compound exercise thathelps us work numerous muscles at one time increasing the

intensity and effectiveness of our workouts.
