because learning to stay with my breath in increasingly challenging yoga poses has indirectly translated to how I handle difficult situations in life.

I admit it didn’t happen immediately, I didn’t recognise it at first, and it’s always an ongoing practice.

but now I try to acknowledge the feelings without letting it overwhelm.

if you’re curious how, send me a DM

using your breath to release emotions

in the words of Thich Nhat Hahn, conscious breathing is your anchor.

one of the most effective breathing techniques out there is simply to breathe in for a count of 4 and breathe out for a count of 4.

breathe through your nose down into your belly.

as simple as this breath exercise might sound, it can take some practice, particularly if you normally breathe through your mouth and/or into your chest.

be gentle with yourself and your breath will follow.

as you are breathing, pay particular attention to the path of your breath.

how does it feel at the tip of your nose, as it passes through your throat, in your chest, and your belly?

can you feel which muscles are working?

can you feel your ribs expanding on each inhale and contracting on each exhale?

if your attention wanders to a thought or a feeling, witness that and then release it on your exhale.

return your attention to your breath.

once you are well practised with the above exercise, you can try to become aware of other things at the same time as you are aware of your breath.

What do you see as you inhale?
What do you hear as you exhale?
What emotions do you feel?

for each inhale, breathe as if it is the first breath ever taken.

you can do this exercise as long and as often as you want throughout the day.

even one slow, conscious, mindful breath can reset your nervous system and change the course of your day.

a gentle reminder that when I’m not feeling ok, I am many worthy things

in case you needed this

in your journey, there will be “in between times” of transition. You may feel lost,

confused, angry, unseen or empty.

Try not to confuse these times of transitions as a forever state of being.

You are breaking away from what was creating space to welcome what will be

One of the “shifts” I’m making this year is hand writing more notes 📝

I’ve always sent texts to loved ones know I’m thinking of them but it’s so quick, less permanent.

Hand writing takes more effort and intention, selecting the paper, refining the thoughts before marking it down. A mistake or two can be crossed out. Adding a little quartz stone in the envelope to add a little more flourish.

And that’s the idea of a little shift like this.

What’s your take on this? ✍️

In our world, Sunday’s are for savouring.

A short burst of hail and sprinkling of summer rain in the morning.

A cappuccino at just the right warmth and flavour accompanied by a jam drop.

A mid-afternoon snooze to refresh our eyes and minds.

A late afternoon walk around the neighbourhood with the afternoon sun warming our backs.

Yet we don’t always have the chance or time to savour these different types of rest.

So on days we don’t have that time and open space to create and savour rest, we borrow a 10 minute script from our yoga practice.

If you’d like to learn how to create deep relaxation, keep reading below.

Now a yoga posture like savasana in practice can signal quite a few things for the body. To integrate the benefits of the practice as well as a time to relax.

And yet, savasana can be a surprisingly difficult posture for some.

(I know it was for me)

But with this 10 minute script for savasana, it doesn’t have to be.

DM “rest” and get the script.

What do board games and beach days have in common?

Apart from two words starting with the letter b, they feature in February’s edition of a soft life.

After the January madness, the plan for February is try to take things slower, and get back to basics.

For me, this looks like

♟️ more board games, less k-drama
🍧 more yo chi, less ice cream
🫖 more peppermint tea, less espresso
🥾 more hiking in nature, less rotting
🏖️ more beach days, less rotting
🧘🏻‍♀️ more yoga, less rotting
👣 more gratitude walks, less mindless scrolling

Did I miss anything?

You’ve probably heard this before, but a repeat doesn’t hurt. Think of it as a more mellow motivation this Monday morning 🥨

I never once looked back after discovering this 💫

What’s your take on it?

Want your practice to be the top-listed Clinic in Yarraville?

A Practice in Resilience.

Let’s start with you.

You are a strong, bold and brave being. You deeply care about people, your family, friends and the planet. You achieve great things when you put your mind to it.

Lately though, you’re finding that your energy isn’t what it used to be.

You’re feeling a bit depleted at 20% while the mental load has skyrocketed to the moon. You’re feeling seriously overworked because you’re the one that everyone relies on. You’re feeling a little under appreciated and even a little taken for granted.

Does it hurt a little when you read those words? Please. Let me help you with that.

We start with asking a question “What is the change you would like to see seven sundays from now?

It might be getting your energy back with juggling a busy career and little ones.

It might be finding a natural way to stop slouching and carry yourself taller.

It might even be having a calmer drop off at childcare with less tears and feelings of guilt.

Or as the current case may be, to stop yelling every 5 minutes at anything or anyone?

With the change you would like to see, we then take the powerful practices of yoga and meditation, also blending in mindfulness techniques and daily journal prompts to help you get there.

If you’re new to these practices, let me explain why these have been chosen.

Put simply, they work.

And the science is catching up with studies proving how these practices can help your mind and body. Take a look through the articles on yoga, aromatherapy, journaling and meditation and you’ll find the latest research to give you peace of mind.

In the same way a yoga class is carefully sequenced, to achieve a balance of stretching and strengthening. Our tools, trainings and re/treats are thoughtfully put together so that when you need to,

You rise up every time you fall.
