While preparing for a sleep workshop recently, I came across an interesting concept- NASA Naps

Curious, I looked into it and found that…

It might be cliché but I had to share this! After what feels like a million days without the Sun, it finally decided to make an appearance over Aberdeen. ☀️
Hopefully the dreich spell ends now… 🤞

The February ASB monthly meeting will be hosted by Women Connect.

Women Connect member Ritu Awasthi - yoga teacher, health coach and founder of Samagra Health - will lead a thoughtful session exploring how we stay steady rather than striving for perfect balance, especially when business, home and family all compete for attention during.

Ritu will invite us to reflect on how the year has started, what gets in the way of looking after ourselves, and one small, realistic change we feel ready to take forward.

This session is:
• Open to ASB members
• Open to non-members (£5 ticket)

This week, as my teenager was going through the process of choosing subjects for the National exams, I found myself going down a rabbit hole.

Reflecting on how AI might shape their future and professional journey, I was reading articles, listening to podcasts and trying to make sense of what lies ahead. It feels fascinating and, at the same time, a little intimidating.

That mild overwhelm reminded me of something simple and grounding. When the future feels loud, the breath can bring us back to the present.

In my latest blog, I explore this reflection and share three gentle pranayama practices that help calm the nervous system when life, technology and world feel like too much!

Work is endless. Exercise is endless.
Parenting is endless. Same with marriage, writing, investing, creating, and more. You get to choose the parts of your life, but many of the important things in life cannot be
“finished.”

Do not approach an endless game with a finite mindset. The objective is not to be done, but to settle into a daily lifestyle you can sustain and that allows you to make daily progress on the areas that matter.

Embrace the fact that life is continual and look for ways to enjoy the daily practice.

How did your first week of 2026 go?

For many of us, the pressure to start the year ‘right’ didn’t quite workout. Plans derailed, schools closed and getting to the routine went for a toss.

May be that’s not a problem. Nature is already reminding us that we need to take it slow this year and rest more.

I have shared my first blog of 2026 on why prioritising rest matters and how listening to the body can influence the way we work and live this year.

Hello 2026 ✨

I was away from social media for almost two weeks, trying to truly savour every moment of the holidays.

During the last two weeks, the scene shifted tremendously-from sun and longer days to being back home with relentless snowfall and sub-zero temperatures. ☀️❄️

The first official start of the year has been slow, school closed, snow to be cleared, plans rearranged.

It feels like nature itself doesn’t want us to rush into things.

And honestly, I am taking it as a cue.

To move slower.
To ease in.
To let the year unfold without forcing momentum.

Wishing you a gentle, grounded start to 2026.

Ritu 💖
