Lately I’ve been reflecting on what I feel makes an “advanced” student of yoga.
Not the shapes, not the strength, not the performance… but the qualities I’m learning to see in myself.

Awareness instead of ego.

Breath that guides instead of rushes.

Time given to myself, even when it’s uncomfortable.

Living the philosophy, not just reading it.

Acceptance — real, soft, steady acceptance.

Contentment with what I have, while still growing with intention.

Kindness in the small everyday choices.

And a bit of play… because wobbling and laughing is part of the practice too.

There are so many more — but these are the ones alive in me right now.

Maybe they’re alive in you too.

Have you moved your body today?
Have you been outside?
Had enough water?
Eaten the right food?

It can start to feel hard to do the good things as the days get darker!

As we move through into winter, our bodies crave warmth, grounding, and nourishment.

This is your reminder to put down the cooler and crappier foods and pick up a bowl of something soothing — soup, stew, broth… whatever warms you from the inside.

This one’s simple: chicken bones, rice, veggies, spices — boiled down into something healing.
Perfect for family, perfect if you’re cooking for one. ✨

Food doesn’t have to be fancy. It just needs to support your energy.
This, too, is part of yoga — tuning in, noticing what your body truly needs.

In Ayurveda (the sister science of yoga), winter is a time for grounding, and warm foods. I’m not a nutritionist, but I know what makes me feel nourished — warm, simple food made with care.

So this season, cook it down, sip it slow, and let it feed your soul. 🥣💛

I just realised it’s World Stroke Day — so this post is totally impromptu 💛

Since my stroke in 2022, I’ve connected with so many people who’ve had strokes too — and every story is different. Some are invisible, like mine, while others are more physical. But each journey takes so much strength. I’m so proud of everyone who gets through this 💪✨

I don’t define myself by my stroke anymore, but it’s a part of me — a little badge I wear with pride. I’m a survivor. 🌟⚡ ✨
I’m proud of how far I’ve come. I thought fatigue would live with me forever, but now I manage it — and do things I probably wouldn’t have done before my stroke. I still push myself (sometimes too much!), but I’m proud of that too.

Here’s to everyone on this path — every little step counts.
And remember: rest is the key to survival. 💛
