Lydia is an experienced yoga teacher, offering classes for adults, mums to be, new mums and their babies and kids all over dublin and wicklow. A bit about Lydia : lydia did her first yoga class in the himalayas when she was a little girl and loved it. Yoga has been a lifelong pursuit, but to give her a greater understanding of how the body works and why it sometimes doesn't, Lydia has also trained as a Bowen therapist and completed a diploma in Anatomy and Physiology. Having spent the last decade working with children and pregnant mums, she decided that working as a pre and post natal yoga teacher was her true calling.

THE HAUNTED HOUSE OF YOGA:

We’ve turned something that was meant to bring us home to ourselves into something we have to look good doing.

But yoga was never about performance.
It’s not about the matching set, the perfect studio, or the illusion of wellness that lives only on a feed.

Yoga is about how it feels, not how it looks.
It’s about moving with yourself, not against yourself.
It’s the moment you slow down, breathe deeply, and remember that you’re allowed to take up space ; in whatever body you’re in, on whatever mat you have, in whatever room you’re in.

Your practice doesn’t need to be picture-perfect.
It just needs to be yours.

HRT : A HOMEOPATHIC ALTERNATIVE LIVE 🌿@

Join me tomorrow at 6:30 pm as I talk to my great friend + brilliant healer about menopause and the homeopathic approach.

We Will talk about :

*different approaches at different stages

*perimenopause: is it real or just a buzz word

* menopause options and how to manage symptoms

*remedies to nourish and support

I am so excited to have this chat as I have only recently discovered that Homeopathy ( which along with herbal medicine is the no 1 thing I use to heal my body + my boys body if we are sick or out of balance) has HRT options to support women as we go through this vital transition period in our lives.

Send me any questions you have for Julia by Dm before tomorrow night and I will be sure to include them.

SEE THE GOOD…

“give me laugh lines and wrinkles
i want proof of the jokes we shared
engrave the lines into my face like the roots of a tree
that grow deeper with each passing year
i want sunspots as souvenirs for the beaches we laid on
i want to look like i was never afraid
to let the world take me by the hand
and show me what it’s made of
i want to leave this place knowing i did something with my body
other than trying to make it look perfect’
- rupi kaur

I’m so fed up of being told that a women’s value only comes from beauty. From the smooth skin of youth. From the flush of fertility. That menopause is coming and you better watch out because your going to get fat in places you shouldn’t, and dry in places that should be wet and oh have you heard about hot flushes and cl****al atrophy?
That age is something to be feared , to resist and run from because god help them if wisdom and freedom from other peoples opinions become something to aspire to … because then they would really see our power.

What would happen if you looked at the photo or your face in the mirror and just saw the good?

The joy . The lines of laughter that come from a life well lived. The face that has been loved and lit up from within by secrets that only you know. The skin that has kept you warm and dry in the rain . That has felt the pleasure of your loved ones touch. The eyes that have seen the beauty all around you. What if you paused the judging and just saw the good. What then?

Thoughts for today.

IF I COULD TELL YOU ONE THING…

It would be this : how you birth and how you FEEL about your birth has a huge impact on your mothering.

The postpartum period can be really rough. Everything in your world as you knew it has shifted, everything in your body has shifted, everything in your relationship has shifted, even your circadian rhythms are tipsy turvey…

But in that time of complete unknowing I always came back to the fact that I birthed my baby and if I can do that I can trust myself to do anything.

Now this isn’t a post saying one type of birth is BETTER than another : it’s about encouraging parents to invest in that birth preparation as much as or if not more than they invest in all the stuff that comes with being pregnant or having a baby: the buggies, swings, clothes, nursery etc .

In my experience the coming together that a couple feels during an active birth workshop laya a deep foundation of connection , trust and strength that carries the couple forwards into whatever birth they end up with , with the best possible chance of it being something they feel empowered by.

There is an honouring of the transition into this new iteration of your family which is very profoundly important and healing.

SOMETIMES WHEN WE ARE FACED WITH ANGER…

All we can do is draw on the deep well of kindness + courage within ourselves, magnify it , emanate it from every cell in our body and embody it in our posture so that it ripples outwards as well as inwards.

Today there are women across ireland and I hope sincerely just as many men too who are feeling enraged, maddened and deeply saddened by the recent ruling. It seems on the face of it to create a world in which women are made to feel even less safe than they already did and where senseless violence goes largely unpunished.

There is huge nuance here that I’m not best placed to go into, and needless to say it can’t be summed up in a trite Instagram post .

However : what I can speak to is what I know about and that is my practice and how it helps me in these moments.
if you are feeling powerless, and overwhelmed- remember that you CAN change how you react. And our thoughts create the world we live in. Tap into that deep well of kindness and courage. Allow it to permeate your being. Allow it to raise you up and bolster your spirit. It is within us all.

HORMONE HEALTH IS YOUR HEALTH…

I feel like hormones have been sold to us as this thing that we only really need to be concerned with when we’re getting excess spots as a teenager, trying to get pregnant, or going through menopause right?

NOT TRUE: our hormonal health is actually FUNDAMENTAL to our whole body heath.

They literally affect everything : from sleep to skin health to digestive health to libido to mood and immune system… and on and on.

Ultimately if you want to be optimally healthy you HAVE TO balance your hormonal system.

THIS IS WHAT SHOULD BE TAUGHT IN SCHOOL.

Because this is something I’m consistently trying to learn more about and trying to understand within my own body we are bringing over hormonal health EXPERT .marilynglenville this week to talk into this subject in depth.

Marilyn has been blazing a trail in this area for over 30 years and teaches women and men how to maximise whole body health via hormonal balance. She uses natural methods focused around simple diet , nutrition and lifestyle changes that anyone can implement easily.

There are still some tickets left for her seminar on Wednesday 6:30 -9 pm in rathmines €20 I’ll put the link in my bio and stories now.

Bring your friends or your partner and come join us to learn how to feel fully vital again !
