Happy Easter!!

This is what my Sun morning is looking like… Where there’s a will, there’s a way… 🙌💥

Despite a suspected broken MCL in my knee, husband and daughter have helped me set up for today’s Yoga For Birth workshop. With lovely helpful daughter doing all the demos for me while I talk and teach…

Dosed up on paracetamol and ibruprofen… this is a lesson in acceptance and determination… and patience.

Looking forward to welcoming everyone who has booked in and will join me today xx you make it worth it!!! 💕🫶

Love

🌿 My two pence worth… after 20 years in this field.

Patience is one of the most powerful things you can bring to late pregnancy.

The smoothest births I’ve witnessed — with the fewest interventions — are overwhelmingly the ones we didn’t interrupt.

But here’s something most women are never told: you are legally allowed to say no to induction. Or ask for more time.

The 2021 NICE guidelines say so — and yet almost nobody tells you that at your appointment.

And the stats?

1 in 3 women in the UK are now being offered induction. But when labour starts naturally, 72% of first-time mums have a straightforward vaginal birth. After induction, that drops to 56%. You deserve the full picture.

I’ve written everything I wish every woman at 38 weeks could read — the real stats, your rights, the four stages of induction laid out clearly, the BRAIN tool to help you decide, and why sometimes doing absolutely nothing is the most powerful choice you can make.

🌷SPRING INTO SPRING 🌱
A fascia & movement immersion

Yoga and movement teachers… this one is special.

Join us for a 2-day deep dive into fascia, movement patterns and embodied anatomy with two incredible teachers:

Expect to explore:

• Core–distal connection
• Head–tail integration

• Vision, curiosity & natural movement
• Spirals in movement and form

This weekend will change how you understand movement, the body and being human.

🩷 Sending love to all my pregnant mamas and new mums right now.

If the world feels overwhelming, bring your focus back to what’s closest — your breath, your bump, your baby, your loved ones.

It’s okay to take a break from the news. Protecting your peace matters — for you and your little ones.

Keep it simple:

✨ Gentle breaths
✨ A walk outside
✨ A cuddle with your baby
✨ A chat with a friend

Staying grounded, calm, and kind with ourselves and each other might feel small, but it’s powerful for your long-term wellbeing.

Remember — you are not alone. We’re all learning, growing, and doing our best together. Every small act of calm, love, and connection truly matters.

If you’d like a little extra calm and connection, my pregnancy yoga, mum & baby yoga and women’s yoga classes are always here to support you. 💕

Much love
Clare xx
