Rise and Shine Studio Yoga for self care everyday From here we begin to feel flexible, strong, alive and ready to step into our full potential. Yoga and Wellness educator
Madhu Puri.

Through the practice of yoga we turn down the feed back of the mind and turn up the innate wisdom that flows intrinsically through each one of us. At Yoga for the People our specialty is the morning practice, created for you based on your ability and time frames. To bring this practice into our morning rhythm, to make time for ourselves before anybody or anything else, is the action of true self-love, self-care, kindness and compassion. Take this out into your day and watch the miracles that manifests right before your eyes. Hatha & Vinyasa Yoga

There is a voice inside you that believes it’s keeping you safe.
It watches.
It judges.
It corrects.
It tightens.

Often called the inner critic or Inner Judge, but really, it’s a part of you that learned control when life didn’t feel safe.

At the Full Moon, this voice tends to get louder.

Next Wednesday night, March 4, you’re invited to a free Full Moon webinar where you’ll learn how to:

soften this internal voice

understand what it actually needs

begin turning it into an inner ally rather than an enemy

No fixing.
No forcing.
Just awareness, compassion, and relief.

Write “Yes” in the thread below and I’ll reach out with registration details or DM me.

When everything feels heavy, stop asking "What’s wrong with me?"
Try asking this instead "What’s been too much for too long?"

This question opens compassion instead of pressure.

Honesty doesn’t have to hurt.
You can tell yourself the truth without tearing yourself down.

Gentle honesty builds trust inside you.
And trust is far more powerful than criticism.

2026 is here.
And yes, so much has changed.
What hasn’t changed is a woman’s longing to connect with other women.

To be seen, heard, and understood.

To sit together without needing to explain, perform, or hold it all together.

This year, I’ll be hosting "Circle", a monthly New Moon gathering for women just like you.

Once a month, we meet around the New Moon, a natural pause point. A time to slow down, reflect, and begin again.

Circle is a gently held space where you’re invited to arrive as you are, take a breath, and reconnect, with yourself and with others.

Each gathering is guided by the rhythms of nature and the inner rhythms of a woman’s life. Through stillness, simple embodied practices, shared listening, and quiet reflection, Circle offers a way to come home to yourself in the presence of others.

You don’t need to have the right words.
You don’t need to fix anything.
You just need to come willing to be present.

I’ll be holding the space with care and clear boundaries, so you can soften, settle, and feel supported. Tea and light refreshments are provided to nourish and ground our time together. Any materials required I will provide. Your journals are always welcome and encouraged.

Circle isn’t therapy or coaching.
It’s a practice of presence, connection, and remembering what matters.

We begin on January 21
7pm
St Leonards ( venue to be announced )

Type "CIRCLE" in the thread or DM me for more information

If something in you knows it’s time to slow down and be met, I’d love to welcome you.

25 yogis.
Sunshine.
Bare feet on sand.

We gathered on the beach this morning to begin the final week of 2025 together.

Our practice was guided by the waxing Moon in Ta**us. grounding, steady, embodied.

Strong legs.
Open radiant hearts.

Playful, sometimes challenging shapes that invited us to feel rather than think.

There was balance.
There was laughter.
There was a deep, somatic sense of love and joy moving through our bodies, mind and soul.

A beautiful reminder that when we slow down and land in the body,
connection happens naturally, with the earth, with each other, and with ourselves

It was windy… and it was perfect.

A beach full of people choosing to slow down, stretch out, and arrive fully into the day.
Locals. Visitors. Different lives, one shared moment.

Before the plans.
Before the noise.
Before the doing.

A simple pause to reconnect with body, breath, and the natural rhythm of this one beautiful life . Join us any day until January 18

Lately I’ve been noticing a certain energy rising , in the women around me, in the stories I’m hearing, and even inside my own body.
That end-of-year push.
That frantic “just get to Christmas” feeling.
That pressure to hold everything together while life speeds up around us.
Accidents, little injuries, nervous systems fraying at the edges.
Obligations that feel heavier than celebrations.
Old patterns tugging at us, overgiving, overspending, numbing, running on empty.
If this feels familiar… you’re not alone.
And you’re not doing anything wrong.
This time of year can stir up so much.
In this live, I spoke about something simple but powerful:
We get to choose how we move through these next few weeks.
We can pause.
We can breathe.
We can soften the pace.
We can honour what actually nourishes us.
We can show up in a way that feels steady, present, and true.
This season isn’t about perfect napkins, perfect home renovations, or perfect families.
It’s about relationships.
It’s about connection.
It’s about presence.
And you deserve to arrive at these special moments with a full heart, not a drained empty shell.
So as you watch the live, ask yourself gently:
✨ How do I want to enter this season?
✨ Who do I want to be?
✨ What choices support my wellbeing, not my exhaustion?
✨ How can I receive, not just give?
You have more power than you think.
And the way you move through these next few weeks can change everything.
Take a breath with me.
Let’s walk this time of year with intention, steadiness, and heart.
I’m right here with you. ⌛️

There’s a quiet ache that comes from giving so much of yourself and still feeling like no one really gets you.

It’s not because they don’t care,
but because you’ve been tucking away the parts of you that are tender, wild, real.

You don’t need to become louder.
You don’t need to prove or perform.

You just need to feel safe to bring more of you into the room.

Even a little.

Little bits at a time.

You deserve to be met, not just needed.

I know what it feels like… your mind is always busy, your body carrying tension, and your heart rarely heard, especially with the changes menopause brings.

From Head to Heart, my new coaching program, is for you if you’re ready to slow down, soften the pace, and reconnect with yourself in a way that feels truly nourishing.

If this speaks to you, DM me or drop a YES below and let’s chat about what you most want in this next chapter of your life.

Ever feel like you’re “out there”—unbalanced, chaotic, or just off? Maybe you’ve been tripping over things, bumping into doors, or forgetting why you walked into a room. That’s a sign your mind has taken over, and your body has been left behind.

When we’re not embodied, we lose connection to sensation, and the nervous system ramps up, leaving us feeling scattered.

✨ Pause.
✨ Feel your feet on the ground.
✨ Stretch.
✨ Take a deep breath.
✨ Do a quick body scan.

These simple actions reconnect you to your body, slow your nervous system, and help you move through your day with grace instead of chaos.

💡 Once you’re back in your body, make a commitment to yourself: slow down. You’ll still get everything done—just with more ease and presence.

Your body is your anchor. Stay connected. 💛
