Bali me was calm, confident, glowing

England me got noro virus, a late period, ate her bodyweight in chocolate and didn’t move for weeks

It’s been humbling

I came home from breathwork training in Ubud feeling like I’d cracked some secret code to safety in myself

But then..
Grey skies
Hormones wild
Energy gone
And I felt… lost

But maybe I wasn’t lost
Maybe I was shedding

It feels like my body needed to purge
To slow down
To come back to reality
To integrate

Now the sun’s out
I’m moving again
Nourishing myself.
Actually being present
I finally stopped procrastinating and held my first Movement is Medicine pilot session (so proud of that one 🥹)

I’m in a full self-discovery era
Trying new things
Wearing what feels like me
Letting myself evolve

And honestly?

I like this version of me more than the “high” one
Spring is doing her thing
And so am I 🧡🙏

My body had to take the wheel because my protectors wouldn’t let go.

During my facilitator training in Bali, I developed a savage cough.
It frustrated the hell out of me.
I felt like my body was failing me — and I couldn’t meet myself with compassion at all.

After some rest, something shifted.
I stopped seeing the cough as a problem and started listening to it as a messenger.

There was something in me that needed to be expressed.
Something I hadn’t realised was still being held as trauma.

My protectors were strong — really strong.
Holding it together. Staying composed. Staying “capable.”
Until they couldn’t anymore.

In one of our circles, I stopped holding back.
I was too ill to keep performing strength.
The cough meant I physically couldn’t hold it all in — and honestly? It was freeing.

I remember thinking, f**k it — I’m just going to be me.
In that moment, I found more safety inside myself than I ever had before.

Confident in my calm.
Able to show up authentically and feel safe doing so.

This is the work I care about.
Not fixing.
Not forcing.
Letting the body speak.

If your body has ever stopped you in your tracks, maybe it wasn’t failing you — maybe it was protecting you.

I’m hosting a Come As You Are Circle - a free, gentle online space to land, breathe, and be human together

This is a space where nothing needs to be fixed
Where you are welcome exactly as you are - quiet, messy, unsure, open, closed, all of it

We’ll arrive together, drop into the body, and share in a way that is completely optional and led by safety rather than pressure

✨free to attend
✨donations welcome but never expected
✨open to anyone who feels called

If you’ve been craving connection, softness or a place to exhale - you’re so welcome

Comment or DM me “circle” and I’ll send you the deets 🤎

When I arrived in Bali, my nervous system was in full survival

I chose not eating over going out alone
I overthought every decision
I didn’t feel safe in my own body

4 weeks later… something shifted on a cellular level

The training didn’t “fix” me
It helped me meet myself with SAFETY

And from safety…everything changes

I’m still integrating. But I know one thing for sure - I’m not the same woman who arrived in Bali 🤎

I’m celebrating something that feels really vulnerable to share.

I’ve officially completed my breathwork facilitator training.

A part of me wants to downplay it.

To wait until I feel “more ready.”
To not make a big deal out of it.

And I’m choosing to let myself be proud instead.

This work changed me.

It taught my body safety, presence, compassion, and trust.

I don’t have it all figured out — and I don’t need to.

What I do know is that I chose myself, my healing, and a path my body believes in.

I’m walking home with this work in my bones — excited, a little scared, and deeply committed to share it with others.

This is me letting myself be seen 💚

This work isn’t pretty.

It’s not aesthetic healing.

But it gave me something I never had before —
SAFETY in my body.

And from that place, everything else gets to change.

This is why I chose breathwork.

I made it
And my body knows this place before my mind does

I didn’t come here to become someone new
I came to listen more closely
To slow my breath
To soften my nervous system
To learn the language of presence, safety + release - from the inside out

This training isn’t about a certification for me
It’s about devotion
To my body
To my healing
To loving myself
To the work I’m here to share

I’m arriving gently
No rushing
No expectations
Just breath, movement, curiosity + trust

If you’re in a season of arrival too - physically or internally
Im holding space for you here 💚

What does you body need more of right now?

Your nervous system isn’t broken — it’s overwhelmed. And when overwhelm becomes chronic, your body often slips into freeze as a way to protect you.

Freeze isn’t failure.
Freeze isn’t weakness.
Freeze isn’t shutting down.

Freeze is your body whispering:
“Let me hold everything for a moment… until you feel safe enough to come back.”

Here are 3 signs you might be in a freeze response:
(softly, gently — no self-judgement here)

1. Emotional numbness or feeling “nothing.”
You know something’s wrong, but you can’t cry, can’t get angry, can’t access your feelings.
It’s like your emotions went offline to spare you from overwhelm.

2. Low energy, heavy limbs, or feeling stuck in your body.
Tasks feel harder.
Movement feels effortful.
Your body wants stillness because stillness feels safe.

3. Disconnection from yourself or your surroundings.
You feel distant, foggy, floaty, or zoned out.
Like you’re here, but not fully here.

None of this means you’re failing.

It means your body has been carrying too much… for too long… without enough safety.

Freeze is a biological pause
— not a personal flaw.

If this resonates, move slowly with yourself today.

Soften your shoulders.
Place a hand on your chest.
Breathe gently.
Give your body permission to thaw at its own pace. 🤍

Does any of this land for you? Where do you feel it in your body?

LOVE isn’t always a fairytale 💜

Coming across this audio after my 1:1 with my somatic coach yesterday perfectly puts into words what we worked through - being in a relationship with someone, being intimate, living together etc really is HARD because your partner mirrors back to you the patterns you’ve created to protect yourself in the past. These forms of protection were perfectly valid in that moment but, I know for me personally, they’ve held me back from being fully present, compassionate & vulnerable in the relationship.

I learnt that these walls and patterns I’ve created to protect myself were from a very young part of me. A part that was so scared of being forgotten & who began to have beliefs that no one wanted her. The part who was terrified at the thought of losing her loved ones.

Yesterday I met little Emily, the little girl who needed to be reminded that she was so so LOVED & although forgotten in that moment it didn’t mean she wasn’t important nor did she do anything wrong.

Being able to provide compassion, comfort & safety to little Emily as myself today felt so powerful, it showed me that I have the ability to hold myself in safety & love. That I’m now the grownup I needed in that moment.

Doing this deep work over the past year has been so incredible, and I’ve seen so much growth in myself which I’m am so incredibly GRATEFUL for

This is JOURNEY which although it’s HARD I’m loving being a part of and couldn’t be happier that Sam has supported me throughout - he’s definitely one of the people in my life who gives me the warm sensations of LOVE & SAFETY 💜
