Hi Yogis! 😊

Yoga is so much more than physical movement and reconnecting with your inner calm. It's a path to a more fulfilled life, a life of meaning.

This week's practice is a reminder of the 8 limbs of yoga, of which asana (physical practice) is only one. The first limb is the Yamas or moral observances, and the first Yama is ahimsa, meaning "non harm". This relates both to our relationship with ourselves, and others, including all beings and the planet itself.

The practice of ahimsa starts with simply becoming aware of your thoughts including any self-judgement and criticism, and then practicing in a way that honours your abilities and your limitations.

I look forward to sharing a gentle practice with you this week including movement, breathing, mindfulness, and self awareness 🙏

Sankalpa ~ Intention ~ Heartfelt desire

A day of reconnection and self-care, balance and restoration. Letting go of the year that was, and creating intentions for 2026. A nourishing gathering co-created by the beautiful women who brought themselves and shared circle (and our honorary male chef!). I am feeling humbled, fulfilled and grateful ~ thank you to everyone who joined us on Sunday!

Sharing some moments from the day, and words from our participants: “blissful and powerful in connection, movement and nurturing”, “such a wonderful day & experience”, “the flowers, crystals and food were beautiful”, “the flow of the day was perfect”, “wonderful caring experience”, “thank you for creating the space I needed today”, “will be back”.

What arises when you read this quote? Does it resonate, or are you not sure if you can believe it? Notice that so far you have survived every challenge that life has presented you. You may have found it difficult, but you're still here!

Personally, I've always believed that we are not given any challenge that we cannot handle. That our challenges are sent to help us reveal our inner resources and use them for our own growth. TBH every now and then I slip back into the "I can't do this" mode of thinking, but thanks to my yoga and meditation practice, my wise self is now able to see this happening and pull me back out of that hole!

As we were discussing last week, our meditation practice helps us connect with our strength, presence, and wisdom. A huge benefit of meditation is equanimity: calmness, composure, unshakeable balance in the face of challenge or change.

If you want a little more calm in your own life .... join us! I look forward to meditating with you 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️

Happy !

I don't know how many years old this mango tree is. It's lived a hard life in our poor, dry soil. Finally we have our first mango! 😋 and three more to come ...

What are you feeling grateful for today? 🙏

Hi Yogis! 😊

One of the gifts of Yoga is that it provides us with infinite ways to connect with and care for self. Between all of the practices, postures, pranayama, observances etc. yoga can meet you where you are at on any given day. Feeling loads of energy? A dynamic practice is likely to feel really good ... Feeling depleted? Restorative yoga is your friend.

Everywhere in nature there is evidence of cycles: in the moon and stars, the seasons, the ebb and flow of tides ... nothing is always "fully on" or "fully off". Like the moon and the tides, we need to flow and find the balance between active and passive, doing and being.

Tomorrow is a full moon where I've noticed most people say they feel wiped. Sleep can be a challenge and we can often be a bit off key. So I am offering a restorative yoga practice. An opportunity to slow down, move gently, and rest. You may want to bring a cushion and an eye pillow if you have them.

I look forward to slowing down and breathing with you this week 😍 🌕 🙏

A new year is a clean slate, full of potential!

I’m not into New Year’s resolutions, having worked out some time ago they’re not sustainable. We get caught up in this idea of New Year near me… But there’s nothing wrong with you! Don’t need fixing or improving. Maybe that’s why new year’s resolutions don’t work?

What I do know is that setting intentions is a very powerful practice. When I set intentions in my life it helps me move in the direction I would like go. At the start of each year, I gift myself time to check in with my inner knowing and feel into what intentions I wish for myself in that year. That is the intention behind the Retreat I’m offering this Sunday. An opportunity to steer your own ship.
For me this year feels hazy … already so much has changed …. and where this time last year I already had plans in place for several retreats and workshops, this year I’m feeling the need to keep things open, remaining flexible and able to flow with what transpires. I haven’t decided if or when I may offer further special events this year. I am not saying this to give a sense of urgency: fake pressure and artificial FOMO to push people into booking lest they miss out is not how I roll! This is the truth of how 2026 feels for me right now. I am learning to be comfortable with not knowing, poised to respond to life as it unfolds. Trusting that everything will fall into place when and as it needs to.

For this Sunday, we have a couple of spots left and if you feel called to join us know there is a reason for that. I’ve not met anyone yet who didn’t leave the event feeling it was well worth taking a day out for themselves.

I would so love to see you there! Join us ☺️

Practicing meditation is a way to pause and reset. In our meditation circle you have the opportunity to step away from "all the things" breathe and relax. But what you're actually doing is so much more!

It is after meditating the benefits really kick in. Coming to your mat and meditating is like flexing a muscle. When you go back out into the world that muscle has a memory and gives you the opportunity to respond differently. By sitting in meditation you shift the mind into neutral, and when you take off again you're a little more present and calm. More able to notice the patterns that keep you stuck, and also more able to make a conscious decision whether to stay stuck or to make a change that will serve you better.

The added benefit of meditation comes the day after, and the day after that. If you want to experience these benefits in your own life .... join us! I look forward to meditating with you 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️

Happy !

For many years now, I have felt it important to honour this day and this land by enjoying being out in nature with respect and gratitude. Appreciating living in a place where we have freedom, opportunity, beauty, and more 💚🩵🙏

What are you feeling grateful for today? 🙏

Hi Yogis! 😊

So wonderful to be back and reconnect with so many of you last week! I noticed many in our community are navigating substantial change as we commence this new year. There has been a lot of mutable energy astrologically and within earth's atmosphere due to solar flares and geomagnetic storms. Being electromagnetic beings we feel the effects of this.

Whatever life is gifting you with at this time, yoga will support you. Having a solid, sturdy foundation physically, mentally and spiritually helps you meet life on your terms. Physically and energetically our feet form a very important part of this picture!

This week I am offering a grounding practice focused on our connection to the earth: our feet. A moderate practice (not super gentle or too challenging) exploring asanas which help us connect with and strengthen our foundations.

Friendly reminder there are no Monday classes this week due to the public holiday, Monday yogis are welcome to join us Wednesday instead ~ bookings required ~ I look forward to seeing you 😍 🙏

If I had a dollar for every time I've heard "I can't meditate, my mind is too busy" ... I would have a LOT of money ... and I would still be teaching yoga and meditation 😊

There are so many myths and misnomers about what meditation is and how to do it. The mind creates obstacles making it out to be this huge, hard, thing but it's really simple! Meditation is not an empty mind. It is the process of training the mind to do what you want it to do, and through this training it learns to become quiet.

If you've never tried mediation, never found it easy/accessible, want to learn different ways to meditate, or just want to feel more calm and peaceful .... join us!

P.S. ~ studies have found that meditating in a group can be more effective in reaching a state of mindfulness 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️
