As we make the hazey, sunripened turn from summer into autumn, I feel the pull of this new season in my body more than ever. More than happy to turn my back on the busy-ness that summer entailed, the fast pace of it all, the return of so many social situations. The extroversion of summer-fun playing a little longerContinue reading “newsletter. september. 22.”

I lay in the grass by my house, prone on my front, bare legs tickled by the grass…. As I write this to you, dear ones, I’m facing the sun as if it’s about to tell me something I wouldn’t want to miss. Face is steeped in summer warmth, skin drinking it in as ifContinue reading “newsletter. june. 22.”

Two weeks late on this one, how did that happen? In our February yoga classes we moved from the ground up. Soaking in earths rooted qualities and emerging slowly from our winter slumber. We explored up through the body finding our footing, connecting to our centre, and rising to meet ourselves as we are inside, and as we welcomeContinue reading “newsletter. march. 22.”

Well, we made it to February. Past January, the month that everyone seems to dred. I always find it interesting that in January it’s as if we are living in debt to how we spent our Decembers. Encouraged to detox, cut out a food group, stop drinking alcohol and ampt up our exercise. It’s a starkContinue reading “newsletter. february. 22.”

Hello dear one And Hello 2022. Wishing you a (slightly belated) Happy New Year. I send this a bit later than intended.

As I write this, I am sitting watching the blue winters sky outside, yesterday it snowed and I watched from the same window as the snow flakes fell. And I was thinking how when you watch the snow falling, it seems to be falling so fast paced and rushed and all together, but when youContinue reading “NEWSLETTER. DECEMBER. 21”

A temptation to retreat, the whisper to be still, the little bit longer spent amidst the release of your exhale. Listen carefully now. Halloween, as most of us know it is commonly connected with ghosts and gools and horror. It’s said to be the one day of the year that the veil between the spiritContinue reading “NEWSLETTER. NOVEMBER. 21”
NEWSLETTER. OCTOBER. 21
In order to exhale, we must first inhale whole-heartedly. In order to share in passion or creativity we must first embody how these feel for ourselves, in our own felt sense. In order to exchange in energetic reserve, we must first be in an open place ourselves to receive and expand. On my course recentlyContinue reading “NEWSLETTER. OCTOBER. 21”
Beannacht / Blessing
by John O’Donohue On the day when the weight deadens on your shoulders and you stumble, may the clay dance to balance you. And when your eyes freeze behind the grey window and the ghost of loss gets in to you, may a flock of colours, indigo, red, green, and azure blue come to awakenContinue reading “Beannacht / Blessing”
NEWSLETTER. SEPTEMBER 21.
Ah hello September. Do you feel that turn in the air? That slight crispness to the edges of the temperature, the morning mist when the suns a little bit slower to rise. It is a month of changes and reflections and quieter contemplations. In the sky, in the light, everything takes a reflective hue beforeContinue reading “NEWSLETTER. SEPTEMBER 21.”
