New Years Intention setting but not as you know it 🔥

As a private yoga teacher and coach, I mainly work with busy professionals, entrepreneurs, and primary/mental-load-carrying parents – all of whom have a jam-packed schedule that can at times struggle to accommodate life’s curveballs.

We know all too well that we need a plan that is flexible and dynamic to meet our crazy lives, so I created a system that allows for this.

Save this post for when life gets crazy, OR I’ll be guiding everyone through this exact process (and then some) tomorrow Yoga & Journaling class, where we will move, reflect and create themes for the new year. There are still some spaces left if you would like to join.

Maybe it’s just me but I feel like there’s been a huge shift from GO GO GO // DO ALL THE THINGS / hustle mode to something softer but no less impactful.

I’m guessing we’re all burnt out from growing for the sake of growth, doing everything right and being on all the time. And don’t get me started on the state of the “wellness” industry (I’ll pass on the raw meat thx 🫣).

The reality is, there’s always going to be a limit when we’re operating from that place - a timebomb ticking down to burnout.

The journey I’ve been on has been a whole other level for me.

✨I used to slow down so I could speed up again afterwards, but now I fully embrace slow and (somewhat) steady. Ditch that rollercoaster - your mental health will thank you.

✨My success does not reflect my self-worth. I am a wonderful person and that isn’t conditional on anything that I achieve.

✨If it costs me my peace it’s a hard no. Boundaries, boundaries, boundaries.

✨I dropped my perfectionist standards and learnt to be ok with good enough - especially for the things that don’t even matter in the long run.

✨More isn’t always better. Sometimes more is just more.

✨Life is not linear; take time to retreat, stop or do less. Rest is part of the balance.

✨Healing takes longer than you expect, and it’s an act of surrendering over and over.

Quieter? Yes. More fulfilling? Absolutely 🩷

I’m a huge advocate for investing in our wellbeing ... aaaand I know how financially stretched many folk have been over the past few years.

Here’s a few ways you can reduce stress and feel better without spending a thing 😌

Can you think of anything to add to this list? ❤️

You look happier, mental resilience edition. Which one do you resonate with the most?

I think it’s time for a reintroduction?

Hi, I’m Tali and I live in Edinburgh, Scotland, with my partner and our 3 year old Rei of sunshine (/chaos).

I’ve been teaching yoga for over a decade (2015!), and coaching for nearly that long too 🧘🏼‍♀️

I blend movement, mindfulness and mindset work to create an intuitive approach to wellness, supporting incredible people who are invested in transforming their lives, inside and out. I love this path, and the awesome people I get to work with 💓

Yoga changed my life long before that, and I attribute it so much of my recovery from mental illness. The “inner work” will forever be my passion.

The past 3 years have taught me soooo much. I’ve been in this perpetual cycle of letting go of so much of who I thought I was and, while I’d love to be out of the other side already, it’s been some high level healing let me tell you.

I’m Capri ☀️ Aquarius 🌙 and Sagi ⬆️ , and a 5/2 projector if that is your vibe.

I studied and worked in genetics/research for a decade, and while those days are long behind me I will always balance spirituality with science.

I’m forever juggling all the things, just like you. Let’s embrace messiness, imperfection and authenticity 🩷

4 SIMPLE ways you can reduce stress and self-regulate today 🩷

🦋 Butterfly hugs - Cross your arms in front of your chest and (optional) hook your thumbs. Tap opposite sides of your chest/shoulder, one at a time eg left – right – left – right. Continue for 1-5 minutes.

🏃 Cardio - 4 minutes of intense EMOM (every minute on the minute) with a decent warm up beforehand and long cooldown can help close your stress cycle.

🧘🏼‍♀️ Yoga / mindful movement - you know this is my main bae

📦 Box breathing - Breathe in for the count of 4, hold at the top for the count of 4, exhale for the count of 4 and hold at the bottom for the count of 4. Repeat for 1-5 minutes.

Feel better? I knew you would 🥰 Save this for future calm, or share with anyone who needs some just now.

You’re not overreacting. You’re overloaded. Here’s why.

I’ll also be sharing some accessible and effective practices to self-regulate this week. Stay tuned 🧡

This changed everything for me 👇

I thought I had nervous system regulation nailed in my first 7 years of teaching yoga and coaching. I did - but I also made sure I had multiple HOURS a day to do yoga, meditate, reflect and write as well as building my business. It was wonderful, but now it kind of feels like easy mode 🥲

Now as a parent I’ve had to support myself in the tiniest cracks of time, while also
• Raising a small person
• Teaching some wonderful people
• Keeping my house (relatively) clean and tidy
• Figuring out next steps in my business

I’d already built the strong foundations but this has been a whole new edge, and it’s has helped me to fully live what I’ve always preached- that we CAN find calm, presence and fulfilment even if our lives are jampacked.

And guess what. It works. And it feels so good.

Life may look full on the outside but everything just flows if you’re resourced and grounded internally.

Now, helping high achievers and purpose-led folk create these kinds of turning points is the heart of my work. One shift can ripple into every part of your life — from how you show up at work, to how you connect at home. It doesn’t require huge amounts of time - it just needs to be aligned.

I’m creating a whole new offering where we’ll use yoga-inspired somatics, mindset coaching and lifestyle shifts to help you build the inner capacity to meet life’s demands so that you can actually enjoy the life you’ve designed.

Balance should be part of the plan, not the price 🩷

It took me over three decades to learn this lesson ❤️

In the past 5-6 months I’ve felt myself emerge from a very long winter. 2.5 years of losing myself in motherhood and abandoning my self care. I chose to temporarily let go of parts of my life that really matter to me so that I could prioritise others (that I also love).

It took me 2 years to actually accept I had to let go (the universe giving me not-so-gentle nudges along the way) and I do wonder if it would have been a shorter winter if I’d surrendered sooner. That said, it was definitely the season I needed 🙏

The ego death and loss of identity was REAL, and I learned to be ok with being in the chrysalis of metamorphosis. The messy middle - no longer who I was, and not sure who I was going to become

My winter helped me reassess what really matters to me, and how to intentionally build a life (and business) that deeply supports and represents my values.

It felt like a very long freefall / dark night of the soul at times, but now I am coming out the other side I can really see the value of this season. I really am a different person, with more wisdom and resilience and an even stronger sense of self.

The truth is, we need it all. We can’t be in perpetual spring/summer; we are cyclical beings just like everything else in nature. Resting, retreating and reassessing is part of growth too, even if it’s not so obvious on the outside.

✨ She didn’t change her life. She changed how she lived it.

When I met Rowen, she was on the edge of burnout — a brilliant, big-hearted medical professional who was barely holding it together.

Same job. Same home. Same responsibilities.
But now? She’s grounded. Calm. Clear.
And most importantly — she came back to herself.

What changed?
🧠 Mindset
🧘🏼‍♀️ Movement
💫 Mindfulness

We created a strategy tailored to her, with flexible, practical tools to help her feel strong, supported and steady — without needing to burn it all down.

If you feel like you’re constantly holding it all together without coming up for air — I see you.

And I want you to know: there is another way.
You don’t have to keep running on empty, and you don’t need to burn everything down to start again. Small shifts can lead to big change.

Let’s find your way back to you.

More info on the classes I’ll be teaching starting TOMORROW!👇 While they all differ in pace and intention, they all interweave my teaching foundation of movement, mindfulness and mindset.

🧘 Thursdays 7:30-8:30pm - Yin and Yang

Here we’ll be starting off in a supported and restful posture to connect with our bodies and breath, before moving slowly and intentionally. We’ll then wind back down into seated poses with all the props to support us, long holds to calm our bodies and steady breath to centre our minds.

This class will be suitable for all levels, including beginners. My aim is for everyone in class to access a deeply nourishing practice, so don’t worry about how inflexible/stressed/whatever else you may be feeling lately. This class is for you to reconnect to your mind and body with curiosity and compassion, and feel a lot better in the process!

🧘 Mondays Vinyasa 2:45-3:30pm

In this class we will move, linking breath to movement, exploring postures and the spaces/transitions in between. My flow classes help you feel more expansive, simultaneously filling your cup and showing you that you are capable of more than you think.

🧘 Mondays Deep Stretch and Relaxation (3:45-4:45pm)

Blending gentle movement, long Yin-inspired stretches and deep relaxation, these classes will invite more flexibility into your body and serious levels of calm in your mind.

Slower paced classes are just as much for your mind as they are for your body; giving you space to process whatever is going on for you in your life while also allowing your body to melt into relaxation.

You can book over at website or download their app to book ❤️
