🧱 From today, this will be the minimum prop requirement for all poses…

If you can still feel your muscles working you probably need another brick, blanket, shoulderstand cushion, chair, bolster and belt… 🤣

As Mary Oliver says:

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves…

Join me for this 2-hour yoga workshop for the opportunity to create inner strength and stability at a time when things are increasingly uncertain and shaky in the world.

This slow-paced class is designed to settle the nervous system and create a sense of calm, as we use the support of props to remain in the poses longer and allow them to pe*****te and nourish us deeply.

A Poet’s Advice by E.E. Cummings

A poet is somebody who feels, and who expresses his feeling through words.
This may sound easy. It isn’t.

A lot of people think or believe or know they feel-but that’s thinking or believing or knowing; not feeling. And poetry is feeling-not knowing or believing or thinking.

Almost anybody can learn to think or believe or know, but not a single human being can be taught to feel. Why? Because whenever you think or you believe or you know, you’re a lot of other people: but the moment you feel, you’re nobody-but-yourself.

To be nobody-but-yourself-in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else-means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.

Viparita Karani - legs up the wall is a restorative pose that’s recommended to help counteract the physical strains of air travel like fatigue, swollen ankles and compression in the hips and spine from long periods of sitting.

✈️ Although it’s only a 5-6 hour flight from Bali - I’ve been practicing this pose all week to help me recover.

It assists with blood flow while calming the nervous system and is also a great to do after a long walk, run or bike ride.

In this photo some of our Silver Salties are enjoying the pose as part of our restorative week practice. Putting a belt around the calves allows the legs to fully release and relax - give it a try the next time you’ve been on your feet all day 🙌

“Sometimes, you don’t realise how much you’re carrying until you give yourself the opportunity to put everything down…”

This was the first thing I wrote in my journal when I arrived in Bali for my birthday last month.

I travelled without my laptop for once and with less than 5kg of luggage. As I sat with this lightness and freedom, I also found myself reflecting on the weight of everything I had left behind.

The responsibilities, the roles, the routines. All the things I have accumulated and stored away over the days, weeks, months and years.

And I suddenly felt exhausted. Tired of holding on, trying so hard and doing too much.

It’s so easy to get caught up in the day-to-day, as we focus on finding ways to keep pushing ahead, to problem solve and make things work.

But we don’t have an endless capacity to keep taking on new and difficult things.
We need space, time and practices that allow us to recover and experience moments of joy and wonder.

This rainy week in Bali gave me a chance to truly rest and reflect. To slow down, do less, breathe deeply and appreciate the beauty of this magical place.

And so, I invite you to put everything down and join me here in Bali on retreat from 1 - 5 June.

We’ll do yoga, walk among the rice paddies, experience the local culture, enjoy great food and find some much needed peace, clarity and relief in our busy lives.
