🌿 Spine Corrector Flow 🌱

Strength isn’t always effort, sometimes it’s reaching into space. 💫

Each arc, each reach, a quiet reminder to move with intelligence and curiosity. 🌿

In this short Spine Corrector sequence light weights were used to mobilise my shoulders and upper back while coaxing my winter stiff spine to open up in every direction.

☀️Sequence focus

• Standing roll-downs with weighted reach
• Weighted lunges using the barrel for balance
• Lateral side bends & rotations
• Supported back extension & arm arcs
• Side-lying lifts for hip & trunk integration
• Seated flexion & hinge series for core control

A flow to balance length, stability, balance and strength for reminding the spine that it moves the body as one intelligent, responsive system.

✨ Working 1:1 with me as a chartered physiotherapist and a comprehensively trained Pilates teacher means every sequence is tailored to your body whether that’s recovering from injury, building resilience, or simply moving with more ease. With my physio eyes and Pilates training, I’ll help you unlock strength and mobility that lasts. ✨

Our sound bath is taking a wee pause tonight while our Dee enjoys a well-earned and long overdue break. 🌿

She’ll be back next week to fill the space with those beautiful resonant tones we all love.

In the meantime, you can still create your own mini sound bath moment at home and no crystal bowls required. ✨

💧 Run a warm bath or shower and listen for the rhythm of the water.

🕯️ Dim the lights, light a candle, and breathe in deeply through your nose, out slowly through your mouth.

🎶 Pop on soft instrumental or ambient music. The slower the rhythm, the slower your heart rate will be.

🌸 Place one hand on your chest, one on your belly, and feel your breath settle into stillness.
Rest doesn’t have to be grand or complicated.

Sometimes it’s as simple as softening the edges of your day with comfort. 🌙

🌙 Restorative Yoga with Emily — Mondays at 7.15pm

If you’ve been feeling tense, wired, or running on empty, this is your invitation to slow down. ✨

Restorative yoga doesn’t feature stretching or strength, it’s an encouragement to turn your gaze inwards and release.

Each posture is fully supported by bolsters, blankets and blocks so that your muscles, joints, breath and mind can completely let go.

As you rest into these shapes, your breath will deepen, your heart rate will slow, and your body will begin to shift from “fight or flight” into rest and repair.

It’s a gentle way to soothe an overworked nervous system… easing tension, reducing stress hormones, and improving sleep quality.

Many people describe leaving class feeling lighter, calmer, and more grounded — as though they’ve been reset from the inside out. 🌿

Have you tried yet? What did you love about it?

DM to book@your space for tonight.

✨ Come exactly as you are. You don’t need to be flexible, simply willing to rest.

🪷 Yoga doesn’t stop when savasana ends.

One of the niyamas is saucha which connotes clarity, order, cleanliness.

Not just “wipe down your mat,” but the practice of creating spaciousness.

Putting mats, bricks and blankets mindfully back in their place, is not just tidying.

We’re reducing clutter for the next person.

We’re creating calm instead of chaos.

We’re showing respect for the tools that support our bodies.

Look around — in the studio, at home, in your own mind.

Where is the clutter stealing your breath?

And what might shift if you placed things back gently, squarely, where they belong?

That’s yoga too. ✨
