Lesson 2500 The Off day!

What does your therapist do when she is having an off day?

Hang on as a therapist you have an off day?

Yeah well I am human!

What is an off day?

To me an off day is when I am lacking energy and do not feel completely content.

Today is one of those days.

And guess what it is COMPLETELY NORMAL.

This week has been a BIG week. Sick family members and clients with really BIG things. Oh and I fell down the stairs yesterday morning and tweaked my ankle.

I had "planned" to sleep in this morning but at 632am that plan was obviously not coming to fruition.

So I can't do anything about that. BUT I can honour how I am feeling today and communicate it with those around me.

Matt said "do you want to go and get some breakfast" I said "no I can't be around people today".

I know that noise would exacerbate how I am feeling right now.

So what am I going to do?

Well my toxic trait is I clean.

I will do the washing, vacuum etc....why do I clean? 2 reasons. 1. I have a little bit of control 2. I can see a good end result.

I will also sit in the sun and read my book.

Not pushing through.

Not feeling guilty for "letting others down"

When we push through the only person we are letting down is ourselves.

Lesson 2499. This week it felt like the towel has officially been:
Thrown
Folded and
Set on fire.

Sometimes life brings us to those moments where giving up seems easier than holding on, where the flame of frustration burns brighter than our patience.

Yet even in those ashes there is something quietly powerful, a reminder that endings also clear space for beginnings.

It isn’t about pretending everything is fine, it’s about honouring the truth of how we feel and trusting that from the smouldering remains, something new can take shape.

Lesson 2488 Protecting with lies 🙏

Sometimes we hold back the truth from those we love, believing we are protecting them. We think shielding them from the weight of information will somehow keep them safe.

But doesn’t that also take away their right to choose?

When we withhold, we take away the very power they have to decide what is best for them.

We make the choice for them, without their voice being part of it.

True protection isn’t about hiding reality. It’s about trusting that others are strong enough to face it, and offering our support as they navigate their own path.

Because when all the pieces are laid on the table, they can step forward with clarity.

They can choose in alignment with their values, their heart, their truth. And that is where empowerment lives.

Through yin yoga, shared tea and treats and heartfelt conversation, we’ll find the spark that lives inside each of us.

Come sit with us. Join or community of like minded women.

A beautiful message received from a new client. FIRST SESSION HUGE RESULTS 💜

Hi Alison 😃
I just feel like I had to give you an update of my day…
I had a morning of full
School interaction due to it being book parade day as it’s book week, driving in heavy rain, a visit to Westfield. All 3 of those things would normally bring me a certain level of underlying anxiety making me nauseous etc a lot of that time. Not once did I experience those feelings today! I messaged my husband while I was walk around Westfield because I can’t remember the last time I went shopping feeling so relaxed and not even thinking. A realization of ‘this is how most people feel’ while doing these simples things hit me.
I keep waiting to have those feelings today but they have not appeared.
I’m so grateful as I feel this really has been my catalyst to move forward. Of course I know this is just the beginning but I am beyond happy with how my day went in regards to my anxiety. Thankyou. I just had to let you know 🙏🙏🙏

Lesson 2487 Invisible rules

The other day I overheard someone say they couldn’t go for coffee after class because they were still in their yoga clothes. It made me think about how many invisible rules we all carry around with us.

I was reminded of when my son was six. We were going out to a “good” restaurant for a celebration and he came out proudly in his brand-new tracksuit pants. When I told him he needed to change, he looked at me with confusion and said, “But they’re new.”

It struck me how early we learn these unwritten rules about what is acceptable and what isn’t. Somewhere along the way we pick up the idea that yoga clothes aren’t suitable for a cafe, or that certain outfits don’t belong in certain spaces.

But who makes those rules? And do they really matter?

Perhaps part of living with awareness is noticing where these little social norms restrict us, and gently choosing when to let them go. Because maybe the real freedom is found in allowing ourselves to show up as we are, rather than as we think we should be.

Said tracksuit pants son actually said to me this morning "I only just realised that I can wear my work pants out as everyday pants"

I was thinking of writing this post at 2am this morning. So it was definitely meant to be written.

My friend Karen Pearn has undertaken a mammoth task, She is trekking to Mt Everest Base camp for Charity.

Why is she doing this?
Karen says “the truth is simple. It’s a mix of a childhood dream and a lifelong passion for helping those in need.”

She is doing this supporting the charity Keith's Closet. Keith's Closet is a not-for-profit charity that provides support to members of the community who are accessing the mental health service. Through our walk-in wardrobe facilities, we provide clothing, toiletries, footwear and accessories on admission or discharge from a mental health facility so consumers can embrace their reintegration and thrive in society.

She will be trekking Everest in October 2026.

Over the past 2 months I have supported my friend by gifting her Alasana to run 2 events which she raised $700.
On Friday 26/9/2025 I will be a guest speaker at a mini wellness expo at Cronulla RSL. There will be local artisans and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to Keith’s Closet.
The tickets for this event are only $40.

Hope to see you all there.

Lesson 2486 (now that is special)
Are you/were you an alcoholic?

This question got asked if me this morning by one of my teachers who I have known for 3 years, but she did not know me before I started my healing journey.

I have never been asked this question before.

She asked it as she saw my video regarding having 2 sips of a drink and feeling sick.

I answered the question, after thinking for a while, yes I definitely was.

When the boys were little my life revolved around alcohol, even to the extent that a few of the mums snuck in hip flasks to a Catholic primary school movie night. I was one of those mums.

My weekend was planned around being to hung over to organise anything the next day after a night out.

And I didn't know when to stop.

I would drink till I blacked out.

So yes I think the answer to that question is yes.

I started drinking at a young age when I went to work for McDonalds. 14 and 9 months I started drinking.

Social at first, and if course that led to binge drinking, then as I got older, every night. One bottle sometimes 2.

"But all my girlfriend's drink of a night" I remember telling my GP.

Did I stop drinking all together? Not until 6/4/2025.

To start I put boundaries in place regarding alcohol.

No drinking during the week.
No drinking if I was supporting clients the next day.

Then 5/4/2025 I decided no more.

I am 56.

Alcohol makes me so sick.

I did have support in this. Breathwork with and energetic healing with and of course my beloved Hypnotherapy.

If you need help to get your drinking under control please reach out.

Hypnotherapy can help.

Lesson 2467 I nearly gave up!

Today Alasana Yoga turns three.

These three years have held moments of joy, connection and growth, but also moments where the weight of it all felt too much. There were times I questioned if I could keep going, but I did. We are still here. We are thriving.

Last month, I signed the lease for another three years. A quiet promise to myself, to our community, and to the vision that started all of this.

It has taken resilience, courage and a lot of heart. And while there are so many people to thank, our teachers, our students, our friends, our families, I also need to acknowledge the part of me that refused to give up. Without that, none of this would be here today.

So here is to three years and to many more.

Lesson 2465 Dare to begin.

A client responded for her hypnotherapy session today and almost apologetically said, “But I haven’t done any of the homework you set.”

I simply smiled and replied, “Well, start today.”

She paused for a moment, then replied, “Good point.”

She had been carrying this quiet embarrassment, thinking she’d failed somehow.

But the truth is, there is no pass or fail in life. There is only now. The present moment is always the starting point.

It doesn’t matter how much time has passed or how far you think you’ve fallen behind. What matters is the choice you make today. Every day is an opportunity to begin again.
