Autumn practice is back for me on this grey, dreich, stormy morning. Lots of breath work, postures, flow and movement to stimulate the lung meridian lines, focus on Ajna chakra and some meditation to let things go. 🍂 🌧️ 🍁

Trying to open up my super tight shoulders (yet again) using cow faced pose and my trusty yoga strap. I used to avoid props like they were a sign of weakness or something, but it turned out my ego just needed to open up too!

Sunshine between storms today on my walk to try and clear my mood and clarify my thoughts. Been really lucky this summer to spend time with many of the people who have known me the longest and who I love the best. It’s left me feeling quite anxious and sad today though. Sometimes you don’t realise how much you miss people until you see them, or how much you’ve been carrying until you share the load. It’s been great to laugh, talk, console, reminisce, discuss the past and plan for the future, but it has also dragged up a lot to the surface that I have been busy ignoring and it makes going back to the ‘doing’ and the ‘coping’ with the everyday harder.

It’s a yoga in your Friday fun pants kind of day 😉. Some sun salutations, twists and heart openers and a few attempts at finding the sweet spot in a yin posture with my bolster and block brought up the idea of adjustment for me today - trying to find the right thing at the right time for the right need. The place between resistance and acceptance, discomfort and release. So much about my body, mind, emotions, practice and life in general has changed and continues to change since I first began to practice. It’s all a constant recalibration of expectations against reality. As in yoga, as in life; I will continue to adjust accordingly.

Can’t decide if you’re a trees and river or swimming in the sea kind of girl? Move to Moray and you can have both!

Gorgeous morning at Findhorn attempting to blow some red wine induced cobwebs away. I blame I was clearly a bit over excited to see her again after far too long!

How I’m looking after body and mind today: a few daily chores instead of the usual weekly frenzied rage clean; taking care of something that has been neglected during term time (today it was cleaning the stains on the carpet!); some good food and some time in the garden instead of being inside all day and eating whatever I have scavenged in the 5 minutes I have left before the bell goes; reading the books that have been slowly accumulating next to the bed all year that I’ve been too tired to read. Today I started this from one of my favourites and am already hooked. Now it’s time for some guilt free Wimbledon watching on the sofa before I head to the pub for a pint in the sunshine. Not even sorry 😉

Finally felt like rolling my yoga mat out. Must be the holidays! Always have the fear about it when it’s been so long then within 5 breaths always remember a.) how much I love it b.) how the body and mind don’t forget all the years of pathways that have been put down even if I have and c.) how it’s only my own monkey mind that ever stands in my way.

Week 2 of the summer holidays and Boston and I have escaped to literally and metaphorically cool off from the heat in the woods! The only problem with being a teacher when the long awaited summer holidays come is that you then have to spend all day with your own kids 😂
