'To act more effectively and make a greater impact, we need to tend to ourselves- you can't give if you're depleted'

Many of us know this but have trouble implementing it. We end up worn out- tired, irritable, anxious or worse, burnt out. The classes address this, tipping the balance back in your favour, to support you and encourage self-care and understanding, so that you can leave replenished and grounded, ready to act on what your heart is calling you to do. In these mindfully-conducted classes, breathwork, movement and stillness are used to encourage and enhance inner reflection, exploration and self awareness so that the response can be the most effective- easing and healing the body, calming the mind and soothing the soul. Sessions are Bridport-based, beginners welcome in all classes. Outdoor sessions and events held in summer months.

Sharing this as it’s part of the reason why I’m running the Beach Clean this Sunday! Clean Up Cogden Beach with me and become part of the solution.

Of course one clean isn’t going to solve the broken system but it does get us sending our energy in a direction that’s useful and groundswells of community action create positive change.

Plus it’s stunningly beautiful there so a walk in nature with a bag and litter grabber is no bad way to spend a morning ✨

RSVP in the event so I know if I need to source more grabbers!

It's time to go and give the beach a good old clean-up- and I'd love you to join me at Cogden Beach if you can. So save the date! Sunday 7th Dec!

Some of you know about my recent experience on this beach with my dear dog so this will be a poignant one for me. But it's also really important to take action regarding the issues we care deeply about so a positive reframe of a tragic incident... which is important too✨.

Plus, this will be my first public Beach Clean in my new role as Surfers Against Sewage Rep so I'm also super pleased to be increasing the impact of my actions. We clean regularly after beach yoga but there's something about meeting in a big group of like-minded people and witnessing the positive impact you can make. I'll be weighing up and logging the results of our finds- the data of which gets used by SAS to instigate further positive change 💫

I really hope you can join me.

Cogden is a fairly remote beach on our beautiful Jurassic Coast and sadly, there's always plenty of rubbish there that's been left or washed in by the sea.

We'll meet at the carpark at 10 and wander down. I've got some grabbers and will have bags etc but please do bring your own if you have some. And fine to catch up with us later if you want to meet us on the beach instead- I'm sure we'll be easy to spot!

We were so grateful to be able to practice yoga here yesterday - on a frosty beach, soaking in the winter sunshine, watching the steam rise from the sea… truly magical ✨

Adapting our practice to the season, and always returning home to ourselves 🧘‍♀️

My Story

My awareness of yoga as a life-changer came during a general yoga 'fitness' class- after an hours class of various postures, I found the 'rest' (savasana) at the end to be so powerful and realised it was much more than merely exercise. My journey had begun and now as a teacher, one of my main aims is to share this experience of peace and one-ness so that others can benefit as I have.

Studying during my 500hr Teacher Training Course exposed me to the vast scope of wisdom that Yoga has to offer- I will [can] never stop being a student of the subject. During the training, I became more interested in sharing the health benefits of the practice to others so that their lives can become more ease-ful and ultimately, fulfilling. I am now coming to the end of another 2 years of study, this time in Yoga Therapy, and enjoy sharing my learnings and the benefits of more specific practices in class.

I practiced yoga more specifically in the run up to the birth of my first child and am sure that the techniques I learnt in those classes were much of the reason why I had a positive birth experience. Yoga connected me to my body and gave me an increased confidence in my self- both in my physical body and in the power of my mind and how this could be influenced very positively by the use of the breath.

Since having my son (and going on to have another), I have been so grateful for my yoga practice and all that it has taught me (-it has definitely helped me to deal with and enjoy having two young boys!)… I have increased confidence, I am calmer, I have a more balanced perspective, I am healthier and more in-tune with my body, I no longer suffer from depression or anxiety (-and I have learnt more about myself and what I can do to protect myself from slipping into negative patterns which may lead me back to these), I have increased joy and contentment, I am less judgemental of myself and others, and perhaps most importantly I am kinder to myself (which I have also learnt is completely necessary in order to be able to give to others).
