Trust in what is to come. March marked the beginning of my two year Post Graduate Diploma in Yoga Therapy. Embarking on this course has come as a bit of a surprise (but also not at all?)

uniting breath and movement (to soothe our nervous system).
Did you know that Yoga means union? To unite. To yoke. To connect. To find union with our body and mind. Yoga practice allows us to begin to cultivate a conversation and connection with ourselves.

Becoming dairy free all those years ago wasn’t always a good thing to me, (esp when i realised those stacks of pancakes I was devouring most mornings, at the coffee shop down the road whilst living in Sweden, were mainly milk!) however over the years of adapting diet and exploring what food feels good, there’sContinue reading “vegan rocky road / tiffin mash up.”

In Chinese practice this is called our ‘chi’. in yoga we call this ‘prana’. Yoga breath practice is calledContinue reading “breathwork for everyday.”
finding nature.
last week we got out in nature, all week. which is always a soulful experience, made even sweeter this time, that lockdown restrictions were lifted and we were able to venture far. to be in amongst it all. to soak up the mountains and be by the sea and be in it all, switched onContinue reading “finding nature.”
