“I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am.” - Sylvia Plath

So that’s a wrap on my New Year, Old You online course. It was a privilege to spend these last couple of months with this gorgeous group.

We finished on Wednesday evening and as someone remarked, it felt genuinely emotional to say goodbye. ❤️

We eased into the year with presence, gentle intention and absolutely no pressure. Practising staying in our bodies and feeling it all as we explored some very human themes.

People were so beautifully open and trusting with each other. They tenderly shared what they were moving through, as some big life changes were navigated.

We opened the course discussing the pressure to be productive at the start of a new year; and how it didn’t necessarily feel like the right time to be starting anew.

And we talked about areas to feel optimistic about moving forward, with ‘cautious hope’ as someone called it.

Wanting positive change doesn’t have to come with knowing the answers - it often won’t; it’s the ability to surrender and trust the process which will be so powerful.

People were allowed to show up as they were, from a place of honesty and humanness. No pretence and nothing to prove. Just being authentic, open and kind.

We listened to our bodies, to our inner stillness, got curious about our emotions and enquired a little deeper about what’s underneath them.

We used that embodied awareness to uncover core beliefs, and compassionately find more self-connection self-love, self-trust.

I guided meditation, breathwork, somatic enquiry and written practices. They help us open to our deepest intuition, so profound insights arise naturally, in their own time.

When we find that place of quiet inside, we get to know ourselves like never before. It’s not easy; a few of us discussed ADHD and having busy minds; it can take effort to soften our thoughts and nurture a settled nervous system.

I used my own course to hold myself accountable, too, as I like to do. Always learning alongside you, always being inspired by what you share. Always committing to my own continued growth.

Thank you to this wonderful group. I truly love this work ✨

🌚 Inward joy vs outward joy 🌝

“If you suddenly and unexpectedly feel joy, don’t hesitate. Give into it.” - Mary Oliver

What does joy feel like to you?

This state of embodied aliveness can show up in various ways.

In my online course, we explored the topic of reconnecting with joy. It’s vital to understand our relationship with it, so we can tap into what lights us up and appreciate what helps us get to a joyful place.

I loved hearing the ways people noticed they experience joy (it’s rarely the big things we might expect; it’s often smaller moments of meaning). ❤️

Sometimes, joy will show up as more of an inner contentment (what I’m calling inward joy).

It may not be something we show to the world necessarily; it’s that small but mighty feeling of fulfilment when we feel most connected to ourselves.

Inward joy is highly likely when we’re grounded in who we are and what we’re experiencing in the present moment.

When we’re in the middle of a difficult time, inward joy can be letting ourselves move through our emotions without resistance. Having compassion for our pain, and softening into it.

Inward joy could be those glimmers, everyday moments, of feeling uplifted. The sun on our face, hearing the birds, walking in the woods, stroking a dog, reading a good book. Even in our work, if we feel connected to a sense of purpose.

Our thoughts may slow down, our shoulders might relax, we could feel more comfortable in our skin, more at peace with ourselves in stillness; our nervous system more settled.

Outward joy is what I’m calling that feeling which may appear more vibrant.

We might dance, sing, move with a spring in our step, interact with people animatedly, show the excitement we feel.

It might feel like butterflies in the stomach, a motivation to move, participate in life. Our energy may feel higher; we might laugh more easily.

I’ve seen inward joy and outward joy mix with a range of other emotions in breathwork.

When we’re fully present to what our bodies want to feel, we have more capacity to move through the whole spectrum of emotions.

By letting challenging emotions arise, we create more space to feel those uplifting emotions.

Find your joy ⭐️

My conscious connected breathwork class continues this Thursday evening / Friday daytime at The Didsbury Parsonage ❤️

See post for full details / booking link / contact x

Conscious connected breathwork classes for a softer 2026 ✨

Need to slow down, unmask and feel like *you* again? Claim the space to be human and join me at The Didsbury Parsonage in one of my regular breathwork sessions:

🔸 Thursdays 5.45-6.45pm (weekly)
🔸 Fridays 12.30-1.30pm (fortnightly)

Prioritise yourself in this restorative environment, with somatic breathwork to bring you out of the mind and into the body.

With my qualified, conscious support, you’re guided to gently release stress and safely process emotions, at your own pace.

In today’s ultra-stressed western world, creating a regulated nervous system will help us navigate life with more ease.

One of the most common things I hear from class attendees is ‘I really needed that.’ ❤️

When we slow down, drop into the body and just let ourselves ~feel~, we create more inner capacity to move through our emotions, rather than avoiding them.

It can feel so hard to get quiet with ourselves, and be comfortable with this present moment. Without trying to get anything right, be anything more, or *do* anything.

That’s why stillness practices like meditation can feel impossible for some, whereas curious attention to our breath, and our felt experience, helps the tension of overthinking to naturally melt away.

Our inner world is fascinating, and there’s so much to love about the real person inside of us, just waiting to be heard.

When we get quiet with ourselves, our inner voice gets too loud to ignore…

Hope to support you in a class soon 🫶

Most of us who’ve considered any kind of inner work, have probably had the same anxious thoughts from these images. It can feel so isolating to have these fears, but I promise you’re not alone.

Drop a heart in the comments if you relate, in case anyone reading this needs to feel seen ❤️

Feel free to get in touch if you’d like to chat about somatic therapy on a discovery call. No obligation to book anything.

I’m ready to listen if you just need to talk things through, and find out your options for moving forward with more inner freedom 🫶
