Spring is a prominent time where nature teaches us the power of renewal and balance—letting go of what no longer serves us to create space for fresh energy.🌷

Yin Yoga mirrors this beautifully, helping us to release deeply-held tension, restore balance, and reset our nervous system

The world demands so much of us...🌏 🤹‍♀️
However the knot in our necks, backs etc are often our bodies way of communicating the need to slow down and soothe body and mind 🗣

Join me on:
☯️Friday, 28th March 7pm Caerphilly Miners Centre for the Community ~

For a deeply restorative Yin Yoga session, where long-held postures will help you soften tight muscles, calm your mind, and reconnect with yourself.

✅️ I provide lots of props (bolsters, straps& blocks) so you can:

🌿 Deeply stretch and improve mobility & flexibility
🌿 Calm your nervous system & release stress
🌿 End feeling lighter, grounded and renewed

I look forward to sharing this with you

♡ Happy International Womens Day ♡

From lifting each other up
( literally 😂 & emotionally❣️)

To holding s p a c e - to support each other and inspire those around us....

You are the 'sister warriors in this world '🤺🌎
and only you know just what a crazy, hormonal ride womanhood is.....!!😂 ( )

Pic 1. New Moon Event 🌚 - S P A C E to be held, flow, create, put energies back into you, and reconnect to your inner peace & wisdom 🦉

Pic 2. One of my beautiful regular yogis bought me a 📖 last week & gave it after class 🥹...
Donna Ashworth ' To the Women '. So fitting and touched beyond words!

Yoga means 'to yoke' 'unity' ....

I honestly wouldn't be the person I am today without the unity and connection of my sister warriors around me

Thanking and celebrating you !

Some of you on my 📧 list are already aware and have booked this exciting event!!

( If you want first dibs on my events, DM me your email address and I'll ensure you're one of the first to know for future events 🎉)

What some people don't know about me is

⚪️I grew up in poverty

⚪️Lived a life of relentless stress for years...
(As a young carer, as Business Account and many Sales Roles)

⚪️Pursued my passion and retrained in health & fitness. However, I was over- working and over-training, repeating the cycle of STRESS & ANXIETY 😫

⚪️Reaching b r e a k i n g point, I signed up for my first meditation course, and my passion for yoga began✨️.

⚪️Told my now husband, we will manifest our dream house 🏠 & wedding💒
Years later, once I started practising these techniques, we did just that 🎉

When we are in a constant state of stress (SNS), it ❌️Shuts down our positive imagination
❌️ Fixates on the past and potential dangers

What Awaits You:
🕊 Shift from stress to serenity
🌚 Grounding Yoga Flows
🔮 Guided practices to help you connect to your intuition
✌️Become a vibrational match for your hearts desires
🌙Neuroscience backed manifestation ritual - you will make a ritual to take 🏠 with you!

🌕✨ A Magical Full Moon Evening ✨🌕

On 15th December we experienced the last Full Moon of 2024. Many of us came together when the lunar energy is at its peak to experience an evening of magic, calmness, and healing. 💫

📏We flowed and released stored tension through moon-inspired yoga
🎴We gained some insight from moon oracle cards✍️ that which we wanted to release for 2024 and
🔥' ed our BURDENS into ashes, creating S P A C E for renewal ....
🧘🏼‍♀️Before a deep guided Yoga Nidra & Meditation

In this hectic time leading up to Christmas, it was a much-needed ✋️—
To step away from the endless to-do lists📝
🌬breathe deeply
🥰connect with like-minded souls and reconnect to calm ✌️

With age I've recognised the need to align to the natural cycles & seasons...

Scientists acknowledge the gravitational pull the 🌕 has on the effect of 🌊's ....
Since we humans are mostly 💧 it's not too far-fetched to acknowledge we are likely affected by the moon ....

I'm so grateful for everyone who attended❣️

If your longing for a moment to release, reconnect, and feel mored ALIGNED & CALM , I'd love for you to join our next gathering under a NEW MOON 🌚 ✨️

Hope to see you at our next magical event together

Love & light

☯️ SHARING THE MAGIC OF YIN YOGA ☯️

I'm SO excited to share that recently, I completed 50hours training in YIN YOGA🥳, and I'm hosting an event with you:

FRIDAY 15TH MARCH 7PM-830PM ✨️
☕️with hot drinks & snacks afterwards🍪

YIN YOGA WILL HELP YOU:

✅️Experience the benefits of stretching the D E E P E R layers of the body ✨️

✅️ Gently stretch Connective Tissues. CT slowly shorten to their minimum range needed if not stretched regularly..
( think tight shoulders & back, our range of motion decreases if we don't open & release these areas deeply & regularly..)

✅️Long holds mean fibroblasts will be released to secrete chemicals and rearrange COLLAGEN - making your tissues stronger and more supple 💪📏⭐️

✅️ This practice is DEEPLY CALMING - I literally feel like I'm in a Zen trace after...🕊😶‍🌫️

Life can be SO demanding of our energies.
Maybe you notice the 'whispers from your body' from the tightness in your neck, back or hipsthat you need to s l o w down..
This is my go-to practice to

✨️deeply release tension
✨️ Calm the mind 🧠

📸 **YIN Pose Human Hammock - This is an amazing pose to release tight hamstrings. Placing the belt at a comfortable position above your ears, so your head is relaxed, relax your leg whilst you are held & this will help you relax more deeply 🌱
** I'll help you make this pose feel yummy for you!!

Yin yoga:

🤍A sanctuary for the fatigued
🤍Whispers restoration into the fibres of both body and spirit, 🫴✨️
🤍Providing a tranquil haven amidst the chaos of daily demand...
