Minding You

17/02/2026

I get high after teaching a class -
and no, I don’t mean I go home and smoke a joint 😅

It’s adrenaline.
It’s being switched on.
It’s a lot of energy moving.

When I get home, I need to bring myself back down.

This morning, that meant stepping outside barefoot and slowing my breathing.
Long exhales.
Cold ground.
Job done - the cold definitely helped.

Even positive energy needs regulating.
If you feel wired after training, teaching, or being “on” all day — this is your reminder:

Exhale. Ground. Reset. 🫶🏻

Our beautiful mini retreat this morning. We had the most fabulous group of women join us - chats and laughs were had 💖

We drank cacao, journaled, learnt about pendulums, practised some breathwork & enjoyed a soundbath meditation.

Very grateful 🫶🏻

After the age of 30, women who don’t strength train can lose roughly 3–8% of their muscle mass per decade.

And no - I’m not talking about the little pink dumbbells waved around for 20 reps.
I mean progressive, load-bearing strength training.

Muscle isn’t just about looking toned.
It’s a metabolic, protective, functional organ.

As muscle mass declines:
• Mobility reduces
• Endurance drops
• Everyday tasks feel harder
• Balance worsens → higher fall risk
• Bone density declines
• Risk of osteopenia and osteoporosis increases

You don’t need to lift like a bodybuilder.
But you do need resistance that challenges you.

Train for:
✨ longevity
✨ independence
✨ future-you

Save this. Share it. Start lifting. 💪

Palming gives your eyes and nervous system a break from constant stimulation.
Warm hands + darkness + slow breaths = instant reset.

Here’s what happens when you practice eye palming:

🧠 Reduces sensory input
Covering the eyes removes visual stimulation. Less information coming in = less processing needed. Your brain can finally downshift.

🌬️ Signals safety to the nervous system
Darkness + warmth + slow nasal breathing tell your body you’re not under threat. This nudges you out of fight-or-flight and into rest-and-digest.

👁️ Relaxes overworked eye muscles
Screens lock your eyes into one focal distance all day. Eye palming gives those tiny muscles a break, easing strain and headaches.

💓 Supports vagal tone
When paired with slow breathing, eye palming helps activate the vagus nerve — lowering heart rate and calming the body.

Save this for later & try it next time your eyes feel tired

This breathwork class is a chance to step out of “doing” and into rest.

We’ll begin by exploring gentle, accessible breathing techniques designed to relax your body, quiet your mind, and bring you back into balance.

Then you’ll lie down, get comfortable, and be guided into deep rest through a calming breathwork journey, finishing with a soothing sound meditation that allows your whole system to settle.

This is for you if you’re tired, wired, overwhelmed, or simply craving stillness.

My hope is that you’ll leave feeling grounded, calm, and deeply restored. 🫶🏻
