The cosiest of Rest Clubs ✨

As we come into the season of hibernation (!), there is something extra special about a candlelit practice of rest.

Thank you to everyone who joined Sunday's Rest Club at The Sanctuary. It was a pleasure to practice with you and to unwind in our own little cocoon.

There are just TWO more opportunities to practice with us pre Christmas.

Sunday, November 23 - Rest Club online - a 75 minute restorative practice dedicated to unwinding and slowing down.

Sunday, December 7 - Rest Club at Reiki Space - a yoga & gong retreat afternoon in the most epic space.

I did something equal parts nerve-wracking and exciting this week and joined ‘s live panel at their recent Breakfast Club.

Sharing the practices of yoga and talking about yoga is something that will forever light me up. Any excuse to dispel a myth or two - ‘I’m not flexible enough to do yoga,’ and ‘my mind is too busy to meditate’ - or encouraging people to scratch beneath the surface feels like a welcome opportunity.

Talking about the ‘business’ side of teaching though? Infinitely more exposing. Hiya imposter syndrome.

Still, these experiences always feel like a learning. A reminder of our own humanness and the power of vulnerability. As I guess whatever path you are walking, we are all stumbling along the way.

It’s a special little nook has created. Thanks for having me.

Root to rise yoga retreat, September 18-20, 2026, Suffolk.

So excited to share that this weekend yoga retreat in the picturesque Suffolk countryside is now available to book. Nestled in peaceful, natural surroundings, you can join us for this opportunity to reconnect and realign after the busy summer.

Yoga retreats are truly a special occasion. They are a chance to step out of the busy cycle of doing we find in our everyday. They are also a move to nourish you; to give yourself time and space to reconnect with what lights your spark.

Expect to be immersed in the beautiful practices of yoga, exploring a range of practices and styles, as the weekend unfolds. We will practice twice daily, exploring restful practices, meditation and sound - from our beautiful studio with floor to ceiling views of the countryside.

With an on-site chef preparing delicious vegetarian feasts and beautiful accommodation in modernised, Grade II listed barns, expect to be nourished, supported and to rest deeply.

If you are new to yoga, or have been wanting to start but something is holding you back, then this is for you.

On the outside, maybe it looks like yoga is a something external; something physical to attain. But really it’s a pathway in, that leads to greater self awareness and understanding.

We don’t need anything to start. There are no prerequisites. Instead, we make the decision to come to practice, to learn and to see what evolves.

When we give ourselves time, enjoy the ride and see what unfolds, we see that every practice is an opportunity to discover something new about ourselves.

If you would like to begin your yoga journey, return after a hiatus, or try something new, you would be so welcome to join us.

Book a drop in pass to see what it is all about or find out more by commenting START below. Or you can head to the link in the bio.

Join us for the final Rest Club practices of the year.

These practices are dedicated time in your busy schedule to unwind, move your body slowly and with care and awareness and practice what rest feels like.

Think lots of lying down, releasing and letting go.

They are a soothing balm for the nervous system.

Final dates for 2025 are above 👆🏻 To join us, head to the link in the bio or comment ‘REST’ for a link.

There is so much more to yoga than what we see in physical poses.

It is a practice that has layers, each encouraging you to get to know yourself a little better; to meet yourself where you are.

If you are thinking about starting, hesitating because you think ‘you’re not flexible enough,’ or think there isn’t something in yoga for you, then swipe through the above.

And if you would like to start, then drop me a DM or comment ‘start’ and we can begin together.

Feeling tired, overwhelmed or like you just need things to slow down? Then try this mini restorative sequence to soothe the nervous system.

Restorative yoga is a wonderful way to release some mental and physical tension in a supportive way. Sometimes it can feel like life is always asking more of us. Do more, keep up, you need to do this now… Restorative yoga instead just asks us to stay. To rest and let the tightly wound parts of ourselves soften and release.

You can adapt and make these poses work for your unique body. I have used a bolster and a block below, but a couple of bed pillows and a book work just as well.

You can explore each pose for five minutes and remember some require you to do both sides.

1. Restorative child’s pose.
Turn head for each side.

2. Supported half frog pose.
Swap sides after 5 minutes.

3. Supported Savasana
I’ve called this supported Savasana, but really my favourite is “premium economy” that my teacher used to say!

4. Legs up against the wall.

Save this sequence for a day when you need to unwind and release some tension.

We explore practices such as these in my monthly Rest Club. A 2.5 hour mini retreat dedicated to slowing down. Think restorative yoga, a gong bath, plenty of rest, plus tea and brownies. Next Rest Club runs November 16. Join us via the link in the bio.

Some kind words from lovely yogis ✨

I’m so grateful to each and every person who chooses to join our little community for a class, Rest Club, retreat or subscribes to my online membership.

Each offering comes from my own constant exploration of these practices. As a forever student, I’m here for the practices that sustain and support us through the many chapters of our lives.

A big thanks to those of you who make up our wonderful community. And for those thinking about joining, you can join us any time - you would be most welcome.

An afternoon retreat dedicated to exploring our relationship to rest through gentle yoga and sound practices.

A big thanks to all who joined us for October’s Rest Club ♥️

I truly believe that the more we practice rest, in safe and supportive environments, the more it will impact our everyday. Helping us to see the patterns and grooves that are keeping us in cycles of exhaustion.

Next Rest Club is November 16. Join us by heading to the link in the bio.

Alternate nostril breathing, or Nadi Shodhana pranayama, can be a great practice for soothing the nervous system and a busy mind.

We have been exploring this in classes of late, as we ease into autumn with a focus on bringing balance and feeling grounded.

Naturally, not all practices suit all bodies, and if practicing in the above way doesn’t feel good for you, here is a variation you can try:

1) if closing off the nostril feels like holding the breath and creates anxiety, then let the hands come into the lap and instead move your awareness - rather than directly altering the path of your breath - between sides. If the image of a baseless triangle works for you, shift your awareness between each side, making sure to stay and finish on the left side.

Practice for a few rounds, perhaps 5-10, of whatever feels good in your body. Notice how you feel, in your mind and your body, after the practice.
