looking at my feed it is fairly obvious that backbends definitely are my favourite asana group. 🫢
don’t know where i would be without them 🤓

Ik kijk hier zo naar uit! ❁

Samen flowen, buiten, genietend van de laatste zonnestralen van de dag, de frisse avondlucht, met het gras tussen onze tenen als we van de mat stappen.
Samen ademen, dromen en zijn.
Samen tot rust komen en loslaten.
Misschien nog even nakletsen of in stilte, helemaal opgeladen terug naar huis.

Vanaf juli elke week

just sharing the simple things - the perks of having one of your best friends as a roomie.

which self care habit do you want to kick ass at this month?

for me with the start of the new month comes a refocus: practice yoga (in all its forms)purely for myself more again.

with starting a new job, my focus shifted and my personal habits made way a little.

my personal practice is so important for my feeling balanced and in-tune so gotta prioritise it ⭒ ⭒ ⭒

i don’t normally hold urdhva dhanurasana longer then 5 breaths.

this morning i did.
after feeling a huge resistance to get into this asana in the first place - i knew i had to go there and stay.

apparently i have been holding a lot of tension in my chest area.
with this hold came a huge emotional release. so instead of flowing through the rest of practice, i laid on my mat and cried.
giving myself space to feel what i needed to feel.

How do you find your soft side when moments like this sunset are not part of the day to day?

Releasing, letting go, trusting that everything happens as it should. Surrendering to the flow of life.

When watching the sun set over the ocean - I soften, without an effort. I trust and surrender.

Coming back to the day to day hustle and bustle - it takes more of a dedicated practice to stay within the flow, to feel the same trust and surrender to the process of life.

To stay mindful and not react from emotion. But instead act from a rooted belief.

being close to the ocean is when i drop into myself the most naturally & effortlessly
hard feeling to describe - when you know, you know

the little moments in between.

the last couple of months have been a period of big transitions.
looking back a the whirlwind it has been - i have felt fairly grounded throughout most of it.
surprisingly so.

i think what has made the biggest difference (besides my regular practices such as yoga & meditation) is to NOT FILL THE GAPS.
when there is an empty moment in my day - to keep it empty, to not start scrolling on my phone, to not instantly put on the radio, to not start reading, or tidying or do whatever i could do to fill the the little gap in my day.
to just sit and feel for a moment.
to digest.
to do the next thing only when I actually feel ready to do so.

already two years ago since I thought my very first yoga class, got my teaching certificate and met the most incredible group of women on our teacher training✨

the intensity of sharing 3 full weeks together still lingers, even now.
practicing yoga together, teaching each other, sharing all our meals, sharing laughter and tears. watching the sun rise & set. staring at the moon, beach walks, incredible conversations. honesty. growth. friendship. respect. feeling held, supported, nurtured.

this experience changed my life on many levels.

it kick started a huge new chapter in my life.
one of freedom, commitment, fear, trust, contradiction, confidence & mostly one of huge personal growth.

I came back from that training a different woman.

still so grateful for every single woman who was there. I am convinced they each touched me in a different way and inspired who I am today.
especially the two ladies behind these trainings. they will forever be examples in how I live my life.

thank you & for putting your heart and soul in these teacher trainings and taking such good care of each of us! 🤍

exactly seven weeks ago ⟲ today

I love what both pictures portray.

… seven weeks ago was about adventure.experiencing new things.unblocking pent-up energy.outward movement

…today is about nurturing.pausing.tuning in.holding space for myself.inward movement

mostly I am astonished that this day on the beach is only seven weeks ago. It feels like a life time has passed. so many changes. both in my environment as on the inside.

I do believe this is what retreats are for. taking you out of your day to day. putting you in environment with people who are in one way or another all looking for something different. mixing up the energies. creating shifts that have a lasting impact.
I love it. considering if I’ll host my own retreat in 2023.
time feels right. let’s see.

meanwhile I’m curious to see where another seven weeks will take me.

Open up.
Literally & figuratively.

We all have such a thight grip on life, such control over our paths and what our lives should look like.
There’s no more space for life to surprise us.
To take us to unforeseen, hidden away places.💫

And when it does do that, it freaks us out. It’s hard to see and feel the beauty in the unexpected ‘cause we realise that we had no control to begin with.

The only certainty we have is the uncertainty of life.

I am starting to really understand what that means. And it gives me so much peace.

It is very hard in our goal driven society to surrender to the process of life.
To live NOW. Without anticipation of what might be the end result of our actions.

But damn it can be so beautiful to just surrender.

A storm has been announcing itself for a long while. I have been doing everything I rationally could to help it settle down.

Except for letting it rage.

Allowing it to pick me up and drop me off wherever it needs me to go.

Here’s to feeling it all and embracing the unknown.

these pictures catch the feeling I cannot bring into words.
this was last week.

so much laughter, roughness and growth. and all the feelings.

thanks .grulois for catching this moment when we said goodbye to women we met just one week ago.
women who all left their mark on me.
every single one of them.
with the best .with.balls
