You know that voice that says, “Maybe next year?”
It sounds sensible.
But sometimes, that voice is the one quietly keeping us stuck.

I’ve spoken to so many women lately who want to join Good Change Community 2026…
but then their rational mind steps in:

“What if it’s too much?”
“What if I don’t have time?”
“What if I can’t keep up?”

Here’s the truth: Good Change doesn’t take time away from you. It gives it back.
Through rhythm, simplicity, and Ayurvedic wisdom, you’ll learn to carry life differently —
not by doing more, but by remembering how to move with life, not against it.

Inside GCC 2026, you’ll find:
🌀 Spacious structure — go deep or keep it simple, depending on the season you’re in.
🌀 Realistic rhythm — seasonal focuses, gentle accountability, and practical tools that fit real life.
🌀Support that meets you where you are — you can show up imperfectly (it's actually encouraged!) and still stay connected.

As 2025 member Sarah Elliott shared:

“It's the most nourishing way to make change. I have learned so much about who I am and how I am that I have never noticed. An awesome like-minded group and lots of practical tips and tools."

We ease in gently from mid-January — our first live call is early February,
and all sessions are recorded so you can follow in your own time.
The rhythm and the community are built to work with your life, not pile on another to-do list.

What if slowing down was the smartest thing you could do for your hormones?

We can’t be living like we’re in constant summer.
But that’s what modern life asks of us — endless output, endless growth, endless light.

In nature, summer is just one part of the cycle.
There’s also autumn for letting go, winter for rest, and spring for renewal.
When we try to stay in summer all year long, our bodies push back — with fatigue, fog, and hormones that stop playing nice.

Your body doesn’t want more hacks or hustle.
It wants rhythm.

That’s what the Good Change Community helps you reclaim — small, personal shifts that align your lifestyle with nature’s timing, not the world’s tempo.

As Mel says:
“I’ve always been health conscious and believed I knew what to do, but found it difficult to stick to my good intentions.
The support and encouragement of the Good Change Community has been life-changing for me.
I feel so much better in myself — and my body craves the rhythm now.”

When you live by rhythm, everything starts to sync.
Energy steadies. Sleep deepens. Life feels more like flow, less like friction.

This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about remembering how to move with nature — not against it.

✨ Meet Atma Okan — Director of Ashram Yoga NZ and Our Yoga Guide in the Good Change Community 2026 ✨

I’m pleased to introduce Atma, who brings over 30 years of yoga and meditation experience and a grounded, practical approach that makes these practices feel doable in everyday life.

Here’s what Atma shared about joining us 👇

“I’m so grateful to be part of the Good Change Community with Becs next year.

Becs is someone I’ve known for a long time and deeply respect. I first met her during her yoga teacher training with us at Ashram Yoga and have since watched how she immersed herself in the study and living practice of Ayurveda and yoga. What I love about her approach is how she brings together such a wealth of knowledge and complexity, and distils it into something simple, practical, and easy for us to incorporate into everyday life. It’s incredible how she makes these teachings so accessible and doable within the pace of modern living.

I’m honoured to be part of this Good Change journey because, quite simply, I need it too. I’m looking forward to diving deeper into the why behind the tools and techniques, and exploring how I can integrate them into my own daily rhythm to better support myself and my family.

Life is super busy, so having a clear path laid out with simple, practical ways to integrate these tools is absolute gold. And being part of a community and in connection with others is what makes it work for me.

This community brings together ancient knowledge that’s so deeply relevant to our modern lives — and something I know truly works. From this place I shall also be sharing a monthly yoga class aligned to the Good Change journey.”

Atma will be guiding us each month with gentle practices designed to help you reconnect with your body’s natural rhythm — to move with more ease, rest more deeply, and find balance in the midst of modern life.

Last call for the Spring Cleanse — doors close 5pm tomorrow 🌱

Do you know what’s really in your food? Glyphosate (aka Roundup) is now showing up in everyday staples like wheat, soy, and corn — a known gut disruptor linked to bloating, indigestion, and poor nutrient absorption.

Our annual Spring Cleanse is where we take these out to give your body a genuine reset — simple, real food that restores balance and supports your body’s natural rhythm.

You can’t control everything, but you can give your body a break.

Doors close 5pm tomorrow. Learn more or register here: https://www.heartspace.co.nz/seasonal-cleanse/

✨ Meet Maria Elisa — Vedic Astrology in the Good Change Community 2026 ✨

Ever noticed some weeks flow easily — and others feel uphill, no matter what you do?
Maria Elisa helps us understand why — through the lens of Vedic Astrology in GCC 2026.

Maria Elisa brings Vedic Astrology to life in a grounded, reflective way — helping us understand our energy, patterns, and timing so we can move through each month with more awareness and ease.

In her monthly forecasts, she shares insights you can actually use — from managing your energy to noticing the natural cycles that show up in work, relationships, and self-care.

It’s not about daily horoscopes or predicting the future — it’s about understanding rhythm, season, and flow through another lens of ancient wisdom.

And if astrology isn’t really your thing, that’s totally fine — it’s simply one of the many layers you’ll experience inside GCC 2026. A beautiful extra, not a requirement.

🎥 Watch her video to see what she’ll be sharing inside GCC 2026.

Gut Health Reset | 2–16 November ✨
Early Bird 2-for-1 ends midnight, Sunday 5 October!

It’s been a rough winter — Covid, flu, lingering bugs. While antibiotics have their place, they can be tough on the gut.

Your digestion is the foundation of everything: energy, hormones, cravings, sleep, skin, immunity. When the microbiome’s off, everything feels off.

If you’re dealing with weight fluctuations, bloating, restless sleep, or constant cravings — these aren’t “malfunctions.” They’re your body asking for support.

My go-to reset: Takra (Indian Buttermilk) — probiotic-rich, easy to make, and a classic Ayurvedic remedy to:
🫶 Replenish good bacteria
🫶 Strengthen digestion (agni)
🫶 Reduce bloating & heaviness
🫶 Support immunity

Quick Takra Recipe (3 cups):
¾ cup plain yogurt (no thickeners)
3 cups room-temp water
1 tsp cumin + 1 tsp coriander
1 tsp ginger (omit if digestion is fiery)
Pinch pink salt (hing optional)

Blend yogurt + water, skim off foam, stir in spices. Drink at room temp (never cold). For 1 cup, make ⅓ of the recipe.

💛 Want to go deeper? Join me for the Spring Cleanse (2–16 Nov) — a gentle Ayurvedic reset to restore your gut + energy before summer.
