Settling back into life at The Breath Connection HQ after 13 days of creating magic ✨

It’s been a full-on couple of weeks for us, but we’ve enjoyed every single moment.

We started in Scotland for our Avalon Retreat, supporting 18 parents of autistic children. Then it was down to the mountains of Snowdonia with the mighty Curtis Palmer, supporting emergency service workers and veterans. And finally, to the gorgeous Island of Mona (Anglesey) to host our own Reset Retreat with 14 incredible humans 🌿

Is our work exhausting? Sometimes. But we’ve got a secret weapon up our sleeves… and we’ll tell you what it is if you promise not to tell 😉
We practise what we teach.

We get up well before each day begins to do the most important work - our own self-care.

Kriya yoga, coherent breath meditation, breathing optimally throughout the day, eating well, and staying hydrated… that’s our superpower when we’re in service 💪
And when we get home? A couple of proper rest days to reset and restore 😌

That’s how we’ve been able to support 46 people over the past 13 days. Our self-care is non-negotiable.

To every brave, courageous soul who joined us across these three retreats - thank you. You inspire us more than you know ❤️

We love you all. Thank you.

Get • Tears. Laughter… lots of laughter! 😂💕✨

It’s Tuesday morning. We’re home, well slept, and very much in that post-retreat glow. 😴🥰🙏
That deep, nourishing sleep you only get after something truly special.

This retreat has to be up there as one of the best we’ve ever held. 🥹❤️

The last morning was magic - and just like every morning - we began with chanting, moved into Dynamic breathing, gathered for a closing circle, and of course finished with an icy dip at the waterfall. 🥰🧊🌿

We have to be completely honest with you - it’s the incredible people we attract that make these weekends so special. The bravery, the strength, the kindness… the way people show up for themselves and for each other. It’s genuinely humbling. 🤗❤️

And this weekend was extra special because my gorgeous daughter Daisy and my AMAZING sister Lucy were there too, supporting us every step of the way.

Lucy cooked food that was genuinely to die for (honestly… unreal 🥘😍) and she led a beautiful yoga session that had everyone melting into themselves. 🧘‍♀️✨

And Daisy - steadfast in the kitchen and in general - keeping everything flowing with calm, kindness, and total get-it-done energy. We couldn’t have done it without you both. You made the retreat what it was. ♥️🙏

Now this may sound a little contrite, but to hell with it… Miranda and I are pretty bloody awesome at hosting a retreat too! 😄🔥 It’s what we were put on this planet for, and we can genuinely say we pour our hearts into every single moment. ♥️

We don’t take ourselves too seriously - the big work people do here is serious enough. ❤️

With daily dipping in freezing cold water 🧊🥶, powerful daily breathwork 🌬️, and our magic 2-hour high ventilation breathwork session on Saturday evening ✨🔥, we ask a lot of our people… but the rewards they receive far outweigh any passing discomfort. 💪💛

We’ll be sharing more from the weekend over the coming weeks (and probably months!). 📸🌿 But for now, we just want to say thank you.

Thank you to our tribe, our community, our dear friends. 🙏❤️

We are because of you. ♥️

BIG LOVE,
Sam & Miranda 💕✨

What a perfect end to a perfect week! ❤️

The day started with 4 rounds of super powerful Dynamic Breathing, finishing with a gorgeous gratitude meditation. 🙏✨

Then a slow, easy morning with plenty of aches and pains from the previous day’s challenging mountain hike. Dizzy was on hand with full body massages and reflexology (pure bliss was the phrase of the day!). 😅💆‍♀️💆‍♂️

After lunch, we headed out for a local precipice walk and it was nothing short of stunning. 🤩⛰️
We finished the walk with a dip in a very icy hill lake! 🥶❄️🫶

Back home for our last delicious supper together, lots of laughs, and a proper moment to reflect on just how AMAZING the past 4 days have been. 🥹🔥

We can’t thank the Curtis Palmer Program enough for all you do, and for letting us be part of such an incredible charity. ❤️👏

Our hearts are full (as well as our bellies! 🤤)

They say you become the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with… well, thank you guys… we must be LEGENDS NOW! 🥰🥰

BIG LOVE,
Sam & Miranda ❤️

World Cancer Day 💛

So how does the Curtis Palmer Program Charity Page. mark the day?

By walking up Cadair Idris - a beautiful but seriously arduous mountain ⛰️

They had poor visibility and strong icy winds that dragged the temperature down to below -10°C 🥶

The group was led by Brian ‘Tinx’ Tinker, a former service user of the CPP who is now a trained Mountain Leader (CPP funded his training). And now Tinx gives back by helping others - which is pretty incredible.

Big shout out to Mark, an Army combat veteran and now a serving police officer, who was also our medic for the day - calm, steady, and keeping a brilliant eye on everyone 👏🩺

And then there’s Loz. Stage 4 pancreatic cancer fighter - and the reason this climb took place on such a meaningful day. Loz absolutely smashed it 💪 He reckons having a few internal organs removed helped too, as he’s now 6kg lighter 😜 (his words!)

The day began with four rounds of Dynamic Breathing, followed by a hearty, healthy breakfast… then off they went.

They finished with a freezing cold river dip 🧊, massages and reflexology with the lovely Dizzy, and then… a very well deserved red hot tub 🥵🫶

8pm closing the day with a soothing coherent breath meditation 🧘‍♂️

Our hearts are full. We’re so grateful to be here supporting such an amazing bunch of humans. 🥰

Big thanks to Damien Isherwood for everything you do to make this happen 🙏

BIG LOVE

Sam & Miranda ❤️❤️

We arrived yesterday afternoon in the beautiful town of Dolgellau in Snowdonia - here to support our friends at the Curtis Palmer Program Charity Page.retreat 🌿🏔️

We’ve got a full week ahead of walks, nutritious home cooked food, breathwork, cold water immersion, qigong, and lots of laughter and connection 🥾🥗🫁❄️😂

We kicked things off last night with a night walk into the woods - and a few of the group even stayed out in a bothy overnight 🌙🌲🔥

Then this morning… a dip in what I can confirm was the coldest one of the year 🥶 The river comes straight off the mountains and is made up of melted snow ❄️🌊 ( Harry Von ICERS!🥶😅)

What we love about CPP is they don’t just take people away for a little break - they’re giving people lifelong skills, whilst gently (and sometimes not so gently!) pushing them out of their comfort zones 💪✨

They also follow the NHS 5 steps to better mental health - simple, powerful foundations that really do make a difference:

Physical exercise
Socialise with others.
Learn new skills.
Team work/help others.
Mindfulness/concentrate on the now.

Tomorrow they’re climbing Cader Idris for World Cancer Day 🏔️ and leading from the front is CPP ambassador and absolute legend, Loz - who is currently battling stage 4 cancer ❤️

It’s genuinely inspirational being around humans like this. We feel incredibly blessed to do what we do, with people who show up with so much courage, heart and grit.

BIG LOVE 💙

Hearts are truly full! 🥰🥰🥰

It’s an absolute privilege to do the work we do, with the most incredible people! 🥰

THANK YOU, THANK YOJ, THANK YOU. 🙏

Happy Sunday, beautiful people ❤️

On Friday, after a full day of cooking, we drove up to the stunning Arrochar in the Scottish Highlands to prepare for the Avalon Reset retreat 🏔️

We held the retreat yesterday… and wow. Our joy, gratitude and privilege to be in service is an understatement. Our hearts are fit to bursting.

Our dear friends Pamela and William created Avalon because they understand - deeply and personally - the challenges parents can face. They’re raising their beautiful daughter, Ava, who is autistic, and they’ve turned their lived experience into something truly meaningful: support, community, and practical help for other parents 💛

The sharing at the beginning was both heartbreaking and wildly inspirational. Parents living with so much, yet showing up every single day. Some caring for children who are non-verbal.

These are true unsung heroes of this country. Showing up, again and again, driven by unconditional love ❤️

Miranda and I often support people whose jobs are incredibly stressful - but what these mums and dads face on a daily basis is on another level. The strength, patience, and steady love it takes is hard to put into words.

So to hear that some parents who joined us before have been using the tools we shared last time - and that it’s genuinely supported them - honestly makes our work feel complete 🌿✨
If even one practice helps you regulate, reset, and find a little more capacity in the day, then it means everything.

So many of you thanked us afterwards, but we truly mean it: we thank you 🙏
For your courage, your openness, and your trust.

And yes… we ended with a dip in Loch Lomond 🥶🌊
It was absolutely ICERS. With that wind chill it honestly felt like the coldest dip of the year! And then there’s Jackie and Polly staying in for AGES like they were in the Caribbean 😂👏

BIG LOVE to one and all. Be kind to yourself - and everyone you meet 🫶

After a day of cooking, we drove up to the stunning Arrochar ( Scottish Highlands ) to prepare for today’s Avalon Reset retreat ❤️🏔️

Our friends Pamela and William set up this incredible charity, Avalon, because they understand - deeply and personally - some of the challenges parents can face. They’re raising their beautiful daughter, Ava, who has autism, and they’ve turned their lived experience into something truly meaningful: support, community and practical help for other parents 💛

This feels like what our work was made for - supporting brilliant parents with a real moment of respite, and sharing simple tools that help you regulate, reset and build the capacity to not just cope, but truly thrive 🌿✨

Miranda and I love doing this work in service. It genuinely fills our hearts with joy 🫶

Here’s to a wonderful day, ending with… yes, you guessed it… a dip in the loch 🥶🌊

Whatever you’re doing this weekend, be kind to yourself - and everyone you meet ❤️

BIG LOVE, as always,

Sam & Miranda
