Someone asked me recently whether I was a yogi or a runner.

And I had to stop and think about why that question felt a bit off to me.

Running is a sport. You train for it, you improve at it, you can measure it. It has a finish line.

Yoga isn’t like that. Yoga doesn’t have a finish line. It isn’t something you get better at in the way running is. It’s something you settle into.

Something that slowly changes the way you move through the world not just on the mat, but in the car, in the difficult conversation, in the moment when everything feels like too much.

You can run every single day and still be a yogi. The two were never in competition.

I think what we really mean when we ask “are you a yogi or a runner” is where do you find yourself? And the answer to that can be both. Or neither. Or something that doesn’t have a label yet.

Yoga isn’t your Tuesday evening class. It’s the breath you come back to. The pause before you react. The relationship you’re slowly building with your own body.
The mat is just where you practise it.

Are you a runner who does yoga, or a yogi who runs? 👇 Tell me below I’m genuinely curious.

I used to do it too.

Glance across the room.

Notice how easily she moved into that pose. Wonder what I was doing wrong.
The thing is comparison is such a natural human response. We’re wired for it.

But in a yoga class, it quietly works against everything the practice is trying to give you.

Because you have absolutely no idea what that person’s body has been through. What they’ve been practising for years, or what they’re quietly managing today. You’re comparing your insides to someone else’s outsides and that is never a fair measure.
Your practice is yours. Completely and only yours.
The moment you bring your attention back to your own breath, your own body, your own edge that’s when the real practice begins.

That’s the whole point of being on the mat.

I’ve been practicing for years and I still remind myself of this. It doesn’t go away. But it does get quieter the more you come home to yourself.

Save this if you’ve ever caught yourself looking around the room. 💛
And come exactly as you are to the next class.

👇 Tell me do you do this? I think more of us do than we admit.

Anxiety isn’t a character flaw. It’s a nervous system state and you can’t think your way out of a nervous system state.

You have to move through it.

🌿
Yoga works directly with the body, which is exactly where anxiety lives. And the research backs it up.

If you’ve ever wondered whether yoga could actually help this is the one to read.

8 years ago today I had life saving and also life changing surgery ( the first of many )

At the age of 29 I was diagnosed with cervical cancer which came as such a devastating blow and completely out of the blue.

I was trying to navigate life as a first time mum to our baby girl and all of a sudden I had a cancer diagnosis to deal with.

I can’t honestly remember life as a mother without the heaviness of a cancer diagnosis. That made me sad for a really REALLY long time. Unjust and unfair. But now I guess we are all at peace with it.

Grateful to be here and putting our family first and my health (physical and emotional) is a priority these days.

Cheers to 8 years

Here’s the question I get asked almost every week and the answer is more interesting than you think.

🌅🌙
Morning and evening yoga aren’t just the same practice at different times.

They do completely different things to your body and nervous system.

Choosing the right one for where you are right now? That’s where the magic is.

You’re not inflexible. You’re just impatient and no one ever told you how flexibility actually works.

Most people stretch hard for a few weeks, feel nothing change, and give up. But your body isn’t broken. Your approach just needs adjusting.

Flexibility is your nervous system learning to trust a position. That’s it. Which means force doesn’t work consistency does.

8 years since my diagnosis. And there are things I genuinely wish someone had told me about yoga and cancer recovery because the wellness industry doesn’t always get this right.

Yoga didn’t cure my cancer. But it helped me find my way back into a body that felt completely foreign after surgery and treatment. It got me through surgical menopause at 32. It kept me sane when nothing else made sense.

This carousel is for anyone currently in treatment, in recovery, or years into survivorship and still figuring out how to feel at home in their body again.
Swipe through, save it and please share it with someone who needs it. 🎗️

If you have questions about starting yoga during or after cancer treatment, drop them below. I read and reply to every single one. đź’¬

👇 Did movement help you through treatment or recovery? I’d love to hear your experience.
