A nice little twist, plus some movement for your shoulders, and all from a chair.

Trialling classes for February, Tuesdays at 12pm, Wallan Neighbourhood House

Supported bridge pose ➡️ swipe to see the version with legs extended

When I was on crutches post surgery, my hip flexors were so angry with me! Constantly engaged while i awkwardly elevated my leg using crutches. Eventually I taught myself to relax, so my quad didn't have to do all the work and could passively hang, but in the meantime while I was stuck in bed, this nice restorative posture was very helpful 🙏

You don't need a bolster, you can use a pillow or a rolled up towel. And just by having my hips slightly higher than my feet and my shoulders, I was able to get a front body stretch and lengthens out all the tight bits 🙌

This can be a great one if you're tight from sitting or driving. You can also prop yourself up on something more firm too, like yoga blocks for a bit more elevation and stretch. ❤️

And we're off, on a little break ❤️

I hope this time of year is kind to you, in the busyness of Christmas or end of year celebrations.

I hope that you can find some stillness or time out for you in whatever it is that you're doing.

Maybe you can make it a focus of each day to stop, pause, look around, and breathe 💕🙏

Tadasana, Mountain Pose. A strong yet simple shape. I like breaking it down and really sitting with it, feeling into the body when I teach it. 🙏

And while I go through my rehab I'm reminding myself of all the cues I use in my classes. Belly in, standing strong, feeling into my feet, grounding. 💪

My poor swollen ankle and foot will take some time to be comfortable back on the ground as I wean out of the boot, but I'm reminding myself to lean into what I know, what I love, and just feel. Just be.

It's been a tough few weeks, months. But today is particularly hard. One thing I've tried to continue doing is practice acceptance. Believing in the strength and healing abilities of my own body. 🙏

And helping myself along with this little meditation and mantra.

Pressing thumb to finger and repeating a phrase. You could try anything.. I often use the words: 'Kindness begins with me' in classes, including my children's yoga classes. But today for me:

It will be fine.
It will heal well.

Gently pressing thumb to index finger [it],
Thumb to middle finger [will],
Thumb to ring finger [be],
Thumb to pinky finger [fine].

👌

My half yoga block is basically the perfect height for balancing out the CAM boot while I work through my rehab.

Moving slowly, mindfully, intentionally.

And using all the strength I have to practice ahimsa (nonviolence / kindness), in this instance towards myself. ❤️💪

23/10/2023

Not a whole lot of asana practice going on here, but I can get my legs up the wall..

Legs up the wall is one of my favourite restorative postures and a bonus because my poor broken ankle needs elevation and rest. The boot can get heavy though 😅

Taking the time, to move, or rest however I can...
..and counting down the weeks and days until I can fully return to the mat ❤️

No online class tonight.. but hopefully I'll be back in action before too long ❤️

Mindful eating - or in this case, coffee time. Sitting, sipping, tasting. And not much else. If you get a moment, maybe you can try it. Simply close your eyes, eat or sip, and just taste. Really taste. Let everything else wait.

It's been a minute, but I finally had some "me" time this morning. Posting after the fact, because I'm right back into it again..

And just like that it's 2023...

I hope you've been able to have some downtime and pause around all that happens end of year and into the next one.

It's been a long while since I've properly posted, with new babies, moving house and just general life. I've finally made the commitment to and space for new classes, and I'd love for you to join me!

More details to come, watch this space ❤️

We're a little more free in Melbourne. Easing out of lockdown and back into the world.

Enjoy the new freedoms like dining out or having friends over or picnics ❤️ but be kind and accepting of those who are choosing to move slowly.. we're all on our own journey here and managing the best we can ☀️

See you online tonight (and probably next week too) 💻

On Fridays we yoga ❤️

I like this little variation in child's pose, to play with mobility in my shoulders and add in a little stretch.
