Modern life often masks this truth.
Many of us grow up thinking that avoiding risk equals protection, when in reality, avoiding challenge weakens us over time.
The body is made to adapt, to respond, and to thrive under stress but only if we let it.

The paradox is clear... to be truly safe, to move freely, and to live without fear, we must engage with the activities that make us strong. Avoiding them doesn’t protect you but it narrows your potential and limits the life your body is capable of living.

Not often there’s footage of Craniosacral Therapy in action - watch with attention and patience - the wisdom of even the tiniest body is indisputable… 🌱

This sits very comfortably with the way I work in my approach to breathwork and physiotherapy.

Thank you Martin McPhilimey MSc MRes - Applied Scientist for framing it up so articulately 🙏

Built to Move Born to Heal

Building capacity to heal - understanding the need to move, eat well, sleep well…
The roots of health

I wrote about Frozen Shoulders today on Substack... If you're perimenopausal or diabetic, your risk of developing it is very, very high.

How you manage it is critical if you want to shorten what can be a very, very long recovery process.

Yes... There is a paywall.

The Vibe Movement add a craniosacral gift voucher to your prizes
DM me your address and I’ll send voucher 🌱

Thanks for supporting our fourth year Festive Wild Vibe Beach Yoga fundraiser for Moray Fresh Start.

Based in Elgin, Moray Fresh Start support people who have been homeless and are moving into new tenancies. They help them set up with basic items (that we might take for granted) that they need for their home. They also support other vulnerable people in times of need, such as coming out of hospital or recovering from other emergency situations. It has been a busy year for Moray Fresh Start and they are so grateful for any donations that you can make to keep supporting them to deliver these resources.

On Sat 20th December we’ll meet at the end of Dunes Road, Findhorn Beach at 10am. You’re invited to join our all levels vinyasa flow as well as a Mind Body Mobility session with Justine. Both practices will be beginner friendly so you don’t need experience to take part. Turn up with a yoga mat or beach towel, cozy layers & a little curiosity!

I’m inviting you to donate as much £ as you can afford, to join in (minimum suggested donation £15).

Please write yoga beside your donation so I know you are coming.

We are also bringing back the ‘Beach Bliss Prize Draw’ which you can enter for the additional suggested donation, a minimum of £10. The winners of these wonderful prizes, donated by local businesses and friends, will be drawn and announced after the yoga session on Saturday morning.

If you want to join the yoga & enter the prize draw please write Yoga & Beach Bliss beside your donation (suggested minimum £25.

If you want to join in with just the yoga please write yoga beside your donation (suggested £15)

If yoga is not for you, or you are away and can’t join but you want to enter the prize draw, write Beach Bliss beside your donation (suggested minimum £10).

All donations are so welcome. I see this as The Vibe Movement Christmas Party, everyone gathers at the beach for a super fun morning and the result of this helps support so many people who are in need of a wee hand.

So important to spend time in nature - if you know someone who would benefit this will be a nourishing experience 🌱

🌿 Wild Rovers Project Launching in January! 🌿

We’re delighted to share that we’ve secured funding from Highland Third Sector Interface to run an exciting new two-year project: *Wild Rovers* - a practical conservation volunteering group for adults experiencing poor mental health or social isolation.

Every second Monday afternoon, we’ll be heading out to beautiful outdoor spots across Badenoch and Strathspey to enjoy meaningful, active time in nature. Our volunteers will get involved in hands-on tasks that make a real difference: planting native trees, tackling non-native invasive species, improving paths and access and much more - and always with time for a well-earned cuppa and good craic.

Thanks to our partnership with Badenoch and Strathspey Community Connections, we’ll be able to offer minibus transport to all our activity sites. We’re also delighted to have support from the Cairngorms National Park Volunteer Rangers.

👉 Interested in joining the Wild Rovers team, or know someone who might benefit? We’d love to hear from you.
👉Are you a landowner or land manager in the Strath? If you’ve got a suitable conservation or access task you think we could help with, please get in touch.

Let’s get outdoors, get active, and make a positive difference together!
