Mooching about in London for the last few days has opened my eyes again to how wide and varied our world is.

We are all just doing our best.

It’s so easy to get caught up in our daily challenges and forget to be present, patient, and grateful.

It’s just the way we are.

We get caught up in our own heads, in our own fears, and in our own reactions to past hurts.

It’s what makes us human.

But looking up and out can become an embedded practice with the right access, commitment and support.

✨I’d love to hear from you - and so would others here in this corner of the ‘gram - what helps you look up and out? And what stops you or gets in the way?

———

Naming and claiming your truth helps you to see through and beyond it to your next big bold step. As a somatic therapist I love brining curiosity and solid transformational practice to this conversation. Stick around and we can share some more on this important conversation together 🤍

Private swims in the Baths
Roaming the streets
Sacred times with friends and family.

Some l places thin the veil between you and your soul.
This is one of mine. 🤍

Adventuring is sewn into our DNA. As soon as we open our eyes and can move we are curious to know about the world.

🗺️ taking ourselves beyond the comfort zone
🗺️ looking outside of our immediate view
🗺️ experiencing how others live
🗺️ exploring new places and spaces
🗺️ making memories

These are all good for our 🧠 brains, ♥️ hearts and our cultures.

We are thoroughly enjoying our trip across the UK this Easter.

Without experiencing difference we can all to easily get caught up in the false belief that there is one right way to be/do/think.

And in this world…. That’s a very dangerous thing.

So even if you simply venture around the corner to a different cafe for lunch. Or if you talk to someone different at the bus stop.

It all counts.

Let this be your gentle reminder to know your growing edge.

New places and spaces can open us up. It feel exciting to be expending this with our kids.

Up at 3:30 am this morning for my first client whilst travelling and it went so well - this is a new thing for me to do.

Having all our kids and extended family together - a rare treat.

Being in England again - one of my ancestral homes - feels amazing. It is opening parts of me up in new ways that are difficult to put into words.

EXPERIENCES like this are so valuable.

That human need to…

✈️ leave home to come home to yourself
✈️ revisit where you came from to know more deeply where you’re going.
✈️ connect with your ancestral lands

It’s a good time to consider your deepest roots and grow from that place.

And it’s also powerful to understand how we are disconnected from and grieve our connections to places and spaces we don’t inhabit anymore.

🫚

We all have roots with our lands, even though many of us are displaced and have been for years, decades or even centuries.

The connections to these places remain.

🫚

Being more than half English but growing up without any connection to the Isle… I’m only in the last 10 years beginning to understand my connection to this land.

It’s been 8 years since we lived in the UK and today we returned as a family. It’s such a wonderful thing to be on one of my home countries.

Excited to explore the inner and outer landscapes.

Where do you come from? I’d love to hear how you connect with your ancestral lands.

🤍🧡❤️🖤

In March 2026 a powerful new sculpture was unveiled in Almaty Kazakhstan near the Sayran Reservoir.

It is a monument to collective empathy.

I could not love this more.

Feeling threatened, inferior, insecure... these are all very human traits.

They are also signals from the body that something needs your attention.

Here's my 9 part explanation of what's actualy going on and more importantly, what you can do about it to retain your personal power in the face of perceived rejection.

Every culture in the world has a tradition around grading the Sun it’s a human need to remain in contact with the systems and energies that support us to live.

This week I’m researching the morning practices that we now know span so many different continents across the planet.

every day we have another opportunity to change our relationship with ourselves and with our environment.

It can be simple.

When you join me in this practice?

1. Go Outside put your feet on the ground.
2. Face the direction of the Sun without looking directly at it.
3. Fell into how your body wants to breathe or move.
4. Consciously say thank you for the privilege of living another day.

Your body, your health, your mental health and your loved ones well thank you if you dedicate yourself to these simple practices

most of all you are coming home to yourself and the Unit Unit wisdom that you already hold.

Poppy, yes, below for a accountability and intention

Every tradition has a version of this. Food as medicine. Emotions need to flow through the body, they cause dis-ease when they do not.

Here is my friends Chris and Parisa Shelton's take on it from a Qigong perspective after a stay with David Avocado Wolfe in Hawaii.

Life and death are intricately linked.

When such a special person leaves the earth it reminds me of how important this life is, and to value it with a different quality.

Being grateful for each new day is a powerful practice to support you in stepping into what you came here to do.

Life is ACTIVE. You choose what you do with it.

I’ll miss you JC. 🤍
