"What we focus on expands"

This morning in our yoga practice we focussed on beauty and today's task is to practice noticing beauty that surrounds you.

This was a beautiful moment in my garden this morning.

Simple and peaceful

Beauty is everywhere .... just waiting to be noticed.

Use this thread to post the beauty you notice today.

Let's light up social media beauty (there is already enough ugly stories online)

p.s: If you would like to join us online from home so you too could start your day with movement, great company and inspiration for the day ahead DM me.... we have a lovely, affordable membership which supports you in making yoga a regular practice so you can live with strength, flexibility and balance.

It is with great sadness that I share that our dear friend Steve Bowker passed away suddenly.

Steve has been part of our Yoga Circle community for over a decade of showing up sharing life, and a regular yoga practice.

Many of you will remember his warmth, his outgoing nature, and the genuine interest he took in others.

He always had time for a conversation, was generous in sharing what he learned about health and wellbeing, and was a loyal and caring friend to many.

Steve loved being part of the community whether at yoga gatherings, travelling with us to the Philippines, or sharing stories from his many adventures.

He had a real love of travel and an active life, often out exploring on his mountain bike or motorbike, and embracing new experiences along the way.

He will be deeply missed.

Our thoughts and love are with his family and everyone who knew and cared for him.

Rest easy Steve

You were a great friend and I am ever so glad Yoga Circle found a way into your heart and was part of your life for so long.

Do you set a Word of the Year?

For years I did, but honestly, by the end of summer my word had usually faded into the background and been replaced by whatever big event was dominating life.

Looking back:
• 2019 became shingles
• 2020 became Covid
• 2021 became mandates

So in 2022, I decided to do things differently.
Instead of committing to one word for the whole year, I chose a word each month.

In January 2022 my word was BE! I gave myself permission to simply be.
By February, my word shifted to PROUD, and I stayed with it for the rest of the year.

When I reflect on 2022, I can honestly say I was proud of how I showed up, the decisions I made, what I created, what I learned, and the online community I built to support women in creating balance and thriving lives.

In 2023, my word was EVOLVE — and that’s exactly what I did. I grew, healed, learned new skills, and stepped more fully into my role as a business owner, leader, and coach. Running a business isn’t just strategy, it’s deep personal development.

Each month I recommitted to evolving, and I invited Yoga Circle members to do the same.

In 2024, I continued this practice.

In 2025, my word was Self-Disciplined. Resulting in a powerful year of showing up consistently for myself and my vision.

And in 2026, my word is QUANTUM —I am a Quantum woman who expands, grows, and creates beyond what I’ve known before.

I’d love to hear yours.

What is your Word of the Year?

Drop it in the comments — you never know who you might inspire just by sharing your story.

If you would like a smaller community to connect with- where we recommit to our word of the month each month...come on over to my FREE FB Group...I'll pop the link in the comments.

We can connect there too

Most of us don’t start the day intentionally.
We start it automatically.

Before we even reach for our phone, a story is already running underneath:

The world is…
My life is…
I am…

These quiet sentences shape our mood, our energy, our motivation, often without us ever noticing.

This month inside Yoga Circle we’ve been using this as a daily reflection in class, watching how much clarity comes from simply noticing the words that live under our day.

I wanted to share the heart of it with you here.

Take a moment pause.
Open your journal.

Write:
The world is…
My life is…
I am…

No fixing. No judging. Just noticing.

Then pause and choose again.

What would you like these sentences to become today?

P.s: If you don't have a journal with you...You could always respond in the space below. Afterall, you never know who you might inspire just by sharing your story.

If you’d love to experience how this kind of reflection is gently woven into our movement, breath, and monthly themes, come and peek inside Yoga Circle.

You’re always welcome-I'll even give you a FREE trial.

Welcome Back -

Welcome back! I hope your summer has offered moments of joy, light, fun, rest, and reconnection. We are back in the flow of our regular timetable from this week, and I’m really looking forward to seeing you on your mat again soon. This year we began with a very simple daily reflection, designed to...

Did you know you can join me six days a week online, live from your own home, and practise yoga in a way that truly supports your life?

We even have 7.00am morning classes on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday — a calm, grounded way to begin your day before the world gets noisy.

No rushing to class.
No commute.
No need to find a car park.

Just roll out your mat, login to zoom, your connect with your body and breath.

This weekly habit creates a steady rhythm that builds strength, balance, and ease over time.

So if you’ve been craving consistency when it comes to movement and are looking for more ease.

If you want to feel supported and connect with a wonderful community, this is your invitation.

Even if you have tried to be consistent before you can always begin again

And this is your time.

DM me or comment Yoga below and I will give you the details for a free trial.

“We are what we repeatedly do.” — Aristotle

Not what we do occasionally.

So if you’ve noticed a little more indulgence over the holidays and have felt guilt or shame creep in, you can chose to "let it go."

You are shaped by what you repeatedly think, feel, and practise.

You are not defined by a few festive days.

Enjoying yourself doesn’t mean you’ve lost your way.

It simply means you get to begin again, right where you are, with what you have, when you’re ready.

Guilt and shame only slow the process.

So practise trusting yourself instead.

Remember you always return to the habits that care for your future self, because your health and wellbeing matter to you.

And you are someone who keeps the promises you make to yourself.

Keeping promises is built through small, repeated acts of care rather than bursts of motivation and therefore it helps to have a place where those habits are quietly supported.

That’s exactly what we do inside Yoga Circle an online yoga membership designed to help you return to your mat, build strength, flexibility and balance, and keep showing up for yourself in a way that fits real life.

If you are already you are in the right place :-) if you would like more insight, DM me or comment below.

We would LOVE to welcome you in 2026!

Merry Christmas everyone.
Wishing you a joy filled day, however it looks for you whether you’re surrounded by family, sharing a meal with friends, enjoying your own peaceful space, or quietly holding someone you love in your heart today.

May there be small moments of warmth, ease, and gratitude sprinkled through your day.

One Thing I Want for You -

As a woman who has juggled career, family, caregiving, and running a business, I know exactly how easy it is to put yourself last.

17/12/2025

Here’s something I’ve learned over many years working with thousands of students and coaching clients:

Self-sabotage is normal. We all do it from time to time.

It isn’t self-destruction.
It isn’t a fundamental flaw.
It serves a purpose.

That purpose is safety.

Whenever we up-level; in our wellbeing, our work, or our lives, we are asked to let go of old versions of ourselves. And that can quietly activate feelings or beliefs (often unconsciously) around safety.

There are different types of sabotage patterns.

One of the most common I see, especially in women who come to yoga, is the Over-Giver.

The Over-Giver learned that:
• caring for others was safe
• being needed mattered
• self-care could wait

So when it’s time to show up for yourself, to come to a yoga class, to rest, to move your body, to prioritise yourself something “gets in the way.”

Not because you don’t want to it.
Not because you lack willpower.
Not because you’re lazy.

But because an old belief is being triggered… and it’s doing its job.

It might sound like:
• “Everyone else needs me first.”
• “I’ll do it later.”
• “It’s not that important.”
• "I'm so busy"
• "I don’t have time"

This is why our yoga practice isn’t just physical.

Every time you come to the mat, "you practise keeping the promises you make to yourself."

Every time you keep a promise, you gently rewire safety, self-trust, and self-belief.

This isn’t about pushing through or fixing yourself.

It’s about healing.

Healing the part that feels it has to over give in order to "be enough."

And it's time

You are enough.
And you do enough.

So here's permission to gift yourself time for YOU today and a gentle reminder to apply grace when ever you notice your saboteurs in action.

I hope this helps tx
