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

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.
