When your yoga teacher says knees actually can go past your toes 🤷‍♀️

21/10/2025

🤔🤦‍♀️ Was this all a BIG mistake?

This was the question I asked myself not even 24hours after landing in Sri Lanka, a place I had dreamed of coming for many many years, a place I felt drawn to, a place I had convinced my husband to come for his long service leave…setting off full of hope and joy, ready for the challenge and the learnings, excited to embark on a yoga teaching gig in another country for a whole month.

And yet, less than 24 hours after landing in Sri Lanka, (on my birthday) here I was in the middle of Colombo thinking ‘oh sh;+! What have I done? I think I want to leave! This is a BIG mistake!

But back in January when my inner wisdom started to whisper ‘ You have to go to Sri Lanka to teach yoga’, I had listened. Back then I was able to discern that this was the right direction to take and this current feeling; a combination of fear, regret, mistrust… bothered me. Was my intuition out of whack? Was it wrong? I panicked!

Arriving back at the hotel after an excruciating walk in the sweltering heat, I paused, showered, breathed and hydrated…and I checked back in with that January feeling.

And, there it was…that knowing that this was exactly where I should be, in this moment. I knew, KNEW I was in the right place at the right time and that this trip was 100% meant to be.

How did I know? And what had yoga got to do with it?

We live in a hustle centred world, the never ending pursuit of ALL the things is constant, glorified and is sending so many of us into a state of overwhelming exhaustion aka burnout.

But why is it so hard to break the hustle-burnout cycle?

Why do we feel stuck? 🫤

When you feel stuck in your nervous system you may be in the next level of what is commonly know as fight/flight and could actually be in what’s known as a Dorsal Vagal state aka Freeze or Shutdown.

And if you are stuck here it can feel impossible to get unstuck!

Even just the thought of ‘doing’ something (you know your body and mind will thank you for later) can send you into a state nervous system hyper arousal leading you to simply freeze and shutdown!

So how can you support your nervous system in easy ways to get unstuck and nourish your whole self?

Try these 5 nervous system nourishing practices:
✨ Give yourself a hug - yep, simply wrap your arms around yourself and give yourself a squeeze 🤗

✨Listen to your favourite soothing music 🎶

✨ Listen to a short gratitude meditation 🧘‍♀️ I have created a 5min morning gratitude practice on insight timer for this exact purpose! The insight timer app also has hundreds of other fabulous yoga and meditation teachers so you can browse and find what works for you.

✨ Schedule in just 10mins to mindfully and slowly move your body in any way that feels grounding and good for you. A short yoga slow yoga practice could include seated suffi circles, gentle neck and shoulder stretches and seated cat/cow.

✨Brew a cup of your favourite warm drink and give yourself permission to mindfully sip your cuppa without distractions. One of my favourite and quickest ways to reset my own nervous system 💕

Be kind and gentle with yourself and start small.

🧘‍♀️🏄‍♀️Join Meags from and me for a night of community connection, surf education and MyoYin yoga.

Whilst Meags has got you covered on the surf education front, I’ll be leading you through a deeply restorative MyoYin yoga practice designed for surfers.

What’s MyoYin yoga?

MyoYin yoga for surfers combines Hatha yoga (pranayama/breathwork, warming asana and meditation), yin yoga and myofascial release techniques bringing relief and harmony to tired bodies after big days in the waves accelerating your recovery.

But there are other reasons why this practice, created specifically for surfers is next level fabulous 🏄‍♀️ 🧘‍♀️

1️⃣ Physical Strength and endurance: Surfing requires a combo of balance, strength, flexibility and endurance - sound familiar? Yep, yoga is a practice that helps you find balance (physically and mentally), build strength and leads to improved flexibility.

2️⃣ Breath Mastery: One of the times we are most likely to consciously tune into our breath is whilst we are in the sea 🌊 Learning to breathe mindfully and deeply not only fuels you whilst in the surf it is also super useful in fostering a sense of calm amidst the waves…especially on the bigger days! Breath control and mindful breathing helps to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, thats the opposite of being in fight or flight, bringing with it a sense of calm which is vital for surfing. On a physical level, there are lots of yogic breathing techniques that enhance lung capacity which lets be honest is kind of handy in a wipe out situation 🤷‍♀️

3️⃣ Mindfulness: Meditation is often referred to as a seperate entity to yoga but meditation is very much a part of yoga and this meditative aspect promotes and improves mindfulness, focus, mental clarity, and resilience – essential for navigating the sometimes unpredictable behaviour of the ocean 😊
