Yup, I cut my hair.

Not for a new chapter.
Not to reinvent myself.

But because I’m done carrying what doesn’t feel like me.

There was a version of me that stayed always has stayed composed.

I think we can all resonate with the masks we sometimes wear and hide behind.

But my body has been asking for something wilder.
More honest.

This is why I love teaching Shake the Dust. It isn’t about looking good. It’s about letting the body move what it’s been holding.

Jaw unclenching.
Hips shaking.
Breath dropping deeper than performance.

The more I teach somatic work in my yoga therapy space the less interested I am in appearing powerful.

I just want to feel it.

Rooted.
Grounded.
Unfiltered.

The hair just followed.

My favourite container in Shake the Dust…
The burpee.

Not because it’s pretty.
Not because it’s easy.
But because it works.

There’s a point in class usually around 8 minutes in where you’re no longer “doing” burpees… you’re becoming the burpee.

That’s when it happens.

The resistance.
The stories.
The surge of emotion.
The urge to stop.
The unexpected tears.

High intensity has a way of shifting our state. It wakes up the nervous system. It stirs what we’ve been avoiding. It shakes loose what’s been sitting heavy.

When we stay, when we let the wave move through instead of bracing against it something reorganises.

Flow state.
Release.
Stillness that feels different when you drop back in.

There isn’t anything to fear.
It’s just energy moving.
Just dust being shaken.
Just a wave passing through.

Holding space is not the same as dismissing feelings.

Holding space says:
‘Your experience makes sense.’
‘I’m here with you.’
‘You don’t have to rush through this.’

Dismissing often sounds like:
‘It’s not that bad.’
‘At least…’
‘Try to stay positive.’

As therapists, we’re trained to regulate ourselves so we can stay present with someone else’s emotion. We don’t rush to fix. We don’t bypass discomfort. We allow feelings to move and complete.

But here’s the humbling part:
Most of us need to remember this skill most when we’re with friends and family. When their emotion activates our own.

Because dismissing someone’s feelings often says less about them… and more about us.

It can signal our discomfort with big emotion.
Our urgency to make things ‘better’ so we don’t have to feel helpless.
Our difficulty tolerating vulnerability….theirs or our own.

Holding space requires capacity.
It requires nervous system steadiness.
It requires us to resist the urge to control the outcome.

That practice doesn’t just belong in the therapy room.
It belongs at the dinner table, in communities, partnerships, friendships and everyone that we meet.

Presence is relational medicine.
