Welcome to one of my many cupboards of chaos - all those spaces that get all the stuff of life shoved in, the s**t getting deeper and less processed over time. Left alone, they become physically and emotionally overwhelming, you can’t open the door without everything vomiting out.

Our bodymind is similar - there’s so much we store, much of which doesn’t belong to us; maybe it was handed on, maybe it’s just wound up there out of habit, clinging on because we don’t know when or how to let go.

Autumn/winter is the perfect time for reassessing, reflecting and sorting. Refining what is really needed, simplifying and shedding. So that we can conserve energy for where it is really needed.

It might be messy and even uncomfortable, but getting it all out, sorting and passing on, repurposing or letting go of that unnecessary stuff can help us to feel lighter and more able to move forwards.

Retreat into Winter, November 30, 10-4pm at Barcombe Village Hall, is a day for metaphorically emptying your cupboards and making the pickles, jams and tinctures that will help to fortify you over the darker months.

We will explore meditative movement, yoganidra, reflective practices and self massage to support breath, digestion and immunity. We will also have an amazing seasonal, vegan feast from and divine chocolate treats from .

Tag a friend you’d like to come with and DM to book in now.

This is me and my marvellously talented co-author and long-term collaborator - we are actually celebrating handing in the manuscript of our next book, Embodied Menopause. The reality is today we are both too exhausted to bust any ‘look at how excited we are’ moves - both negotiating unwelcome late nights awaiting teenagers alongside much of the usual midlife melting pot of business with multiple life plates spinning. So here we are, two midlife women sitting on Brighton Beach taking a breath or two having written our manifesto for menopause - no champagne or other ‘fabulousness’, a coffee, chat by the sea and home for a quick nap.

But that’s really what the book is all about: a more earthed, present and balanced narrative around menopause than either the car crash-style panic and fear-mongering or the ‘be the best version of yourself EVER’ route of self help (with all the products that entails).

Embodied Menopause is an invitation to quieter listening, presence and honest response to shifting energy. With plenty of easily accessible, nourishing practices to allow you to taste and digest all the flavours in the hormonal soup.

More when we’ve both had a good rest!

DM or comment if you’d like to be on our mailing list for more info on the book.

Just a ‘hey, how you doing?’ as I’ve been quieter than usual here for a while. I’ve handed in the manuscript for Embodied Menopause - super exciting, and also a weird liminal space of waiting for her to be fully birthed into the world, while she works her way through the publishing machine.

I’ve also joined the Green Party, not just because of our new folk hero (although it is quite euphoric to have a politician fearlessly drawing all the right lines against fascism, g3nocide and ecocide). What’s been really inspiring is getting into rooms full of people making real, grass roots change in community. Pulled this card on Friday and it’s galvanised the call. Watch this space for more community fundraising and care.

Off to London today to see my super-talented girl who’s been single-handedly managing the wardrobe for Gothic opera . Because art offers so many alternative narratives to the mainstream that we can tap into for hope and inspiration.

As ever, holding the paradox of joy, contentment and love with overwhelming grief, rage and bafflement at the world.

How are you my friends?

Drop me a DM, join me in class, book a therapeutic massage or why not join me November 30 for Retreat into Winter Day Escape - movement meditation, self massage, yoganidra and self soothing nourishment all day, along with fabulous vegan lunch courtesy of - booking link in bio.

Love and solidarity in wild times,

Sometimes a mantra or meditation comes to you: this stay in Turkiye we have the most beautiful gardens - fig trees, bananas, hibiscus, sage… and so many I know by smell and texture now but not name. Dragonflies, blue-tailed lizards, giant orange hornets, huge bees that look like black leather-clad rockers, the cicadas who are like an orchestra tuning, and even the less-beloved mosquitoes. The swifts overhead, the horses and goats in the next field. ‘Noisy cat’ who comes and chats between hunts.

Om Namah Shivaya is a devotional mantra that recognises divinity and interbeing in and between everything. I’ve been chanting it internally in my meditation all week. Feeling this connectivity brimming and electric. Storing it up to pass on with love when I’m back in Brighton next week for classes and therapeutic treatments.

DM me if you need me - I have sunshine and heat, ease and peace in my hands to share.

And don’t forget, if you’d like to join me for a deeper dive into meditation, yoga and thai massage, I have day retreats in the UK coming up, as well as Turkey and Kerala trips next year.

Ready for tomorrow at 11 - straight after yoga 9.30-10.30am . In Buddhism, there is no fixed self, as over-identification or attachment to rigid concepts of ‘I am’ cause suffering - we miss what is present if we’re caught up in projections or judgements.

So if you fancy some easeful, joyful, meditative movement before the march, drop in. I am also happy to offer concessions or free places to anyone in the trans community struggling financially (just DM me).

Marching in solidarity with all my beloved trans and gender-non-conforming friends, and with huge pride for my remarkable trans daughter and my other three marvellous, q***r kids. I am literally bursting with pride, alongside the rage that we still have to protest for their rights.

Please come along, even if you or your kids are not trans, as their rights are intersectional with yours. And yoga is about freedom for all!

May all beings know peace
May all beings be safe
May all beings be free from suffering 🏳️‍⚧️
