Truth-telling matters. Apologies matter. Moral leadership matters. Reconciliation matters.

🪔✨HAPPY DIWALI!✨🪔

Diwali, the festival of lights in the Vedic calendar, reminds us that no matter how deep the darkness, the flame of the soul never goes out. Diwali is a time to celebrate the victory of light over shadow, wisdom over ignorance, and love over fear.

In these times where our collective human shadow - greed, ignorance, hatred and delusion - manifests so vividly across our planet, it might seem like it’s unstoppable. Yet, according to the truth of the Vedas, the goodness and light always outshines the darkness. 🕉️

Especially during Diwali, for many years now, India has opened her traditions and heart to me. With colour, chaos, music, puja and a love that feels ancient and alive. The kindness becomes palpable. Extra candles are lit outside front doors, temples everywhere are ablaze with festivities and firecrackers and fireworks go all night. It gets pretty crazy!

And an abundance of flowers is offered to everything, in gratitude, especially Lakshmi, Ganesh and the sacred Ma Ganga.

Our last India Retreat group visit had the blessings of sharing Diwali celebrations in Rishikesh - and in 2026 we’ll do so again! Stay tuned for the dates soon.

Wishing you and your loved ones - and all of humanity - the peaceful, abundant and joyful blessings of Diwali.

May we always remember the light - the light of awareness - that always remains.

108 Sun Salutations - that’s a wrap! 🌞

So honoured to be a part of this sincere Surya Namaskar sadhana with a wonderful team of teachers and students Beacon Yoga Centre | Sivananda Ashram.

Remember this. Your body is the temple of your soul. It carries the wisdom your mind keeps seeking. Take time to pause, rest, nourish and listen to the deeper wisdom from within. 🙏🩵

Some days, I don’t feel like teaching yoga.

Not because I don’t love it — but because I’m human.

There are days when my energy is low, or my inspiration isn’t flowing.

But over the many years of teaching and practice I’ve learned something powerful: when I show up just as I am, something shifts.

Yoga, like life, is never about perfection — it’s about presence.

Yoga doesn’t ask us to be polished, it asks us to be real. To breathe through the resistance, to soften into what is, and to trust that this moment — exactly as it is — is enough.

Like the class last month when I talked about what grief teaches us, and cried. In that moment the sadness of my Dad living with Alzheimer’s, along with so many innocent children being killed in G@za, became overwhelming.

Often, those are the classes that move me the most or that students say they “loved” or got just what they needed.

I think it’s because the energy in the room becomes honest, tender, and more human.

We meet each other there — in the rawness — and this too, is yoga.

So if you’re feeling off, uncertain, or a little wobbly today or tomorrow or next week… show up anyway.

Not as your best self — just as your authentic self.

That might just be when the magic happens. ✨

✨🧘🏻‍♀️Ignite Your Inner Light : Spring Yoga & Kriya Immersion ✨🧘

STARTS MONDAY! Join me for an empowering, immersive week of sunrise yoga, kriya and meditation practice, in the garden.

Kriya practices are powerful, repetitive yogic sequences of breathwork (pranayama), movement (asana), mantras and mudras designed to awaken layers of your body’s subtle energy (prana) to:

• release stored emotions and energetic blockages;

• strengthen your willpower to take actions aligned with your chosen life direction; and
• accelerate your spiritual transformation and self-realisation.

This immersion is great for anyone with some yoga experience, even if you’re a bit rusty. There’ll be plenty of guidance and practice options.

I’d love to welcome you on this transformational, five-day journey! 💚

📍Monday 6 - Friday 10 October

What speaks to you in this scene?

When we are truly present in the moment, not consumed by thoughts, life often speaks to us with a deeper wisdom. 🌅
