Pregnancy Yoga Winter Sessions this evening with the Birthing Goddess

16/11/2025

I never ever EVER take for granted having a fully equipped fit for purpose yoga studio at my fingertips.

I remember lugging and dragging everything everyone and the floors being gross and just the energy being dull

So I created what I needed.

This was set up for pregnancy yoga tonight....and I have two Mum's coming along for their third pregnancy 😊

Day 375 of 365 Sacred Ways 🤣 - Completion

My last Sacred Way.

I began this whole thing on a whim.

I did not know why I was doing it.

I just did it.

About a third of the way through it hit me that what I was actually doing was writing my second book, How to Thrive When Society Lets You Down. Which is funny because I started writing it without knowing I was writing it. The process has been so different from my first.

I never would have been able to predict the daily things I do that help me to thrive.

I am going to miss my night time reflection rituals.

And now it ends at a serendipitous moment because I am unexpectedly having some minor surgery and will be unable to type for a while.

Life knows more about timing then it lets on sometimes.

It feels like a natural pause before the next chapter begins.

I would sooooo love to know which Sacred Way has stood out the most for you. You can dm me or post a comment.

Thank you so much for following along. 🙏

Day 364 of 365 Sacred Ways - Full Moon

I was born on a full moon and maybe that is why I have always felt its pull. When life feels too heavy to carry, I look up. Somehow, no matter where I am in the world, the moon steadies me. It reminds me that I belong to something much bigger and it is a constant companion in all its phases.

When things feel unbearable, I let the moon give me my bearings. I mark time with the moon.

As Sacred Ways comes to an end beneath this full moon, I cannot help but wonder where I will be by the next one. What will have shifted, softened, or grown?

Day 363 of 365 Sacred Ways - Carry

Every day we carry things.

Some are light, like a cup of tea or a phone.

Others feel heavier, like grief, loss, or responsibility.

And then there are the ones you can’t see at all, memories, worry, or hope that settle somewhere deep inside.

What makes us human is this strange, beautiful ability to carry.

Anthropologists reckon that when we stood upright and freed our hands, it changed everything. We could hold tools, water, food, and each other. Later we carried ideas, stories, rituals, and grief.

We became a species built for holding on, with both our hands and our hearts.

I think about that a lot.

To carry is to care.

It’s our way of saying, “this matters enough to bring with me.” Sometimes what we carry shapes us, and sometimes putting it down sets us free.

Day 362 of 365 Sacred Ways - Prime Numbers

Prime numbers have always fascinated me, even though I am absolutely terrible with maths and numbers. My inability to count 365 Sacred Ways without losing track proves that 🤣

I realised recently that every one of us in our family was born on a prime date, which probably explains why people have long suspected we’re a bit of an odd bunch.

A prime number is a number that can only be divided by itself and one. It stands alone, unique and unrepeatable, yet still belongs to the great pattern of numbers that shape our world. There is something beautiful about that balance between individuality and connection.

It struck me again at the girls’ football match this weekend when I noticed both of my daughters team shirts carried prime numbers too.

Maybe that is what the Sacred Way reminds us of, that even when we stand apart, we are still part of something greater, held within a pattern we may not always see but somehow feel and follows us through life.

Day 361 of 365 Sacred Ways - Recognition

Today we held our annual volunteer awards, a moment each year that never fails to move me.

I used to not understand the value of awards. But over time, I’ve been converted. I’ve seen the power of recognition and the way it lights something in people when their efforts are truly seen.

The word recognition comes from the Latin recognoscere, meaning to know again. And that is exactly what it feels like, a remembering. Seeing someone not for the first time, but truly knowing them again in the light of their care and contribution.

To every person who gives their time, energy, and heart to support others, thank you. You are what makes it all possible. 💛
