Grounded Motion

Grounded Motion Hi I'm Morgan, let me introduce myself. I have been practicing yoga for almost 15 years and in 2022 I finally took the leap to become a qualified yoga teacher.

🧘🏼‍♀️Empowering Women to build strength, mobility and balance through community, connection & the power of movement I am a mum to two beautiful boys, a Registered Nurse specialising in Oncology and a yoga teacher who is passionate about women’s health and movement. M

y partner and I packed up the car, loaded our 10 month old baby boy and headed off for an amazing adventure that was my 6 week immersive yoga teacher training at Krishna Village in the Northern Rivers region of NSW. I have since had another beautiful boy and started Grounded Motion. I started Grounded Motion because I believe that with the right input our bodies, minds and spirits can thrive. I provide a space that allows you to arrive as you are in the moment, in whichever season of life you are in and promote thoughtful and reflective yoga to grow physical and mental well-being. My aim is to enrich lives through community, connection and the power of movement. I love bringing movement, mindfulness and grounding to women to help support them in whichever life season they are in. I hope to see you on the mat soon! Morgan. x

More than Yoga. More than Movement

22/04/2026

One of my good friends said to me, “Of course you’ve had a major trauma, major surgery… and decided it’s the right time to do an extension.”
And she’s right.

Since getting home from Perth, Tim and I have been working on extending our little house. We’ve had this in the works for quite a while, we just haven’t found the time where we’re both available, or the time to actually open up the house and put it into action.

Over Christmas, we built a new deck next to the house so that we could enclose the one that’s directly attached and integrate it to make our lounge room and kitchen bigger.

So given the circumstances, me coming off my bike, breaking my shoulder, and us having to come home from our holiday early, we made the decision to try and get the extension done in the two weeks Tim has left off work.

I’m obviously very limited in how I can contribute. I’ve got one arm in a sling, I can’t mobilise it or use it much at all, but I’ve still been finding ways to help, things I can do, and ways to work with it so we can get it done.

There are moments where things feel easier.
More natural.
More like you.

These also aren’t just singular moments or a singular version of me. They are the moments that cross all the hats I wear and still feel most like myself. 

They’re easy to overlook when life is full.

Take a moment to think about it, and you might better be able to understand what supports you to be able to truly feel like you.

We all hold onto things.

Expectations
Responsibilities
Ways of doing things we’ve gotten used to

This isn’t a practice of getting rid of the things we are holding on to…

But some of it might not need to be held so tightly, taking time to reflect and notice can help us soften in the areas we can.

It’s my birthday today! 
This year when we discussed what I wanted to do for my birthday I responded with “Ride the Munda Biddi Trail” So that is exactly what I’m doing to celebrate 35 laps around the sun! 

So it only seems fitting that today’s journal prompt is related to getting out in to nature, experiencing it in all its amazing, grounding, soul nourishing beauty. 

I honestly feel that in the world we live in, the hustle we’re sold is the way to go, that time outside starts to become something we squeeze in, rather than a part of our regular rhythm.

A quick walk.
A moment between things.

Now I’m not saying that quick walk is a bad thing but being in nature without rushing feels different.

Slower.
Quieter.
More spacious.

So when was the last time you got out in to nature? Without rushing? Just allowing it to soak in?

It doesn’t have to be a huge adventure like what I’m currently on… it could be as simple as sitting in the garden, without technology and without a job to do, sitting, listening, noticing, experiencing, connecting.

It’s taken me a while to find the words to share this. I’m still grappling with a lot of the emotions that are coming up.

Some of you may have seen, but our family ride came to an early end.

On day three of the trip, our first full day on the trail, I came off my bike and dislocated my right shoulder and fractured my right humerus.

I’m okay. I’ve been well looked after. I had surgery while in Perth and I’m now home, but it’s been a lot to take in.

It’s so much more than just the physical side of it too, the emotional side has been hard to process.

Going from finally doing something we’d been planning and looking forward to for so long, to it ending so quickly, so early in the trip, has been a big shift.

This trip was a family holiday, but it was also something I’d been really looking forward to as a way to mark my 35th lap around the sun.

It’s been a lot. I’m still processing and working out what the next few months will look like now.

Sometimes we need to take a moment to reflect on where our energy is going. Is it where we want to direct our energy?

Sometimes it’s small, ongoing things that sit in the background.

Manageable on their own
but heavy when they stack up

We all have a finite amount of energy, where we direct it matters, knowing where you’re spending your energy and what the trade off is can help with making decisions around the flow of your energy.

Even when things feel busy, there’s usually something steady underneath it all.

A person
A routine
A place
Something that helps you feel grounded

Sometimes, just noticing it makes it easier to know where to lean when you need a little extra support.

There’s often a quiet stream of thoughts running underneath everything.

Things we haven’t finished
Things we haven’t decided
Things we haven’t had time to process

They don’t always feel urgent, but they take up space, and often keep going round and round until they are expressed, or laid out on a piece of paper. Writing what’s on your mind out, helps start to let go of some of it, allow it to take up the space on paper(or phone/tablet etc.) rather than space in your mind.

Joy doesn’t always arrive in big, obvious ways.

More often it’s small.

A moment outside
A conversation
A bit of quiet in the day
A moment of observation

The other day I was watching my children play with a friend, so completely engrossed in each other’s company, taking joy from it. Their joy and being able to hear their little laughter float out of the room towards me was one of these small moments, so easy to let pass by without realising.

These things are easy to move past.

Take a moment now to allow these small moments of joy to land, to be felt, experienced and not just moved on from.

If you’ve been thinking about going on a retreat but don’t know where to start, this is a good place.

It’s easy to get caught up in what looks good online, and what’s trending on Instagram.
But the most important thing is finding something that actually supports you and what you need right now.

Rest, movement, space, connection…
it can look different for everyone.

One thing I often hear is
“I’ve thought about a retreat, but it would have to be somewhere like Bali…”

And while those places are beautiful, we also have some incredible locations here in Australia that offer that same feeling of stepping away, slowing down, and being somewhere different.

Without the added layers of big travel, long flights, and extra logistics.

When you’re choosing a retreat, it’s less about what looks impressive, and more about what will genuinely support you.

If you’re exploring options and want to talk it through, I’m always happy to have a chat and help you figure out whether my retreat feels like the right fit for you or not.

So what exactly are we doing for the next 4 weeks?

We’re heading to Western Australia to ride the Munda Biddi Trail as a family, from Mundaring to Albany.

Just over 1000km (around 1060km) of trail, winding through forest, farmland and some pretty remote parts of WA.

We’re aiming to ride it over about 3 weeks, with the flexibility to take rest days and shorter days along the way. Our longest planned day is around 80km, but we’ll see how that unfolds.

We’ll be camping the whole way, carrying what we need and restocking in the little towns we pass through.

And yes, the boys are coming too.

Their bikes are coming with us, and they’ll be riding parts of it, with a bit of help. It feels like a pretty special time to let them start to learn what they’re capable of.

It won’t be fast.
It won’t be perfect.

But that’s not really the point.

This trip is about slowing down, connecting as a family, stepping away from the usual day to day, and doing something that feels both big and unknown.

The fun kind and the hard kind.

We’ll be sharing the journey over at if you’d like to follow along.

Life has a way of filling up without us noticing it.

A few extra things to think about.
A few more commitments.
A little less space than there used to be.

Reflecting on this prompt can be a simple way to see it. 

Not to fix it.
Just to recognise it and to sit with it.
