Sometimes the most powerful reset isn’t changing your whole life - it’s changing one breath.

I catch myself holding my breath when I’m stressed, or breathing high into my chest. No wonder my body feels “on guard.”

How do I fix it? By changing my breathing pattern. It's the fastest way that we can hack our nervous system. Within minutes, my shoulders drop, my jaw unclenches, and I feel more grounded.

And it doesn't just work for me - here's what my clients have said:

“I felt really relaxed and a bit emotional.”

“Just 4 minutes of breathing changed my whole evening.”

“I managed anxiety so much better than I would’ve a few weeks ago.”

💛 If you try one thing this week, try noticing your breath. Is it soft? Is it steady?

I know a lot of us carry stress in our bodies without even realising it.

Tight shoulders, stiff hips, restless sleep… sound familiar?

That’s why I love running my weekly Stretch & Breathe class. It’s a gentle midweek reset — a space to breathe, release tension, and feel more at ease in your body and mind.

Here’s what people say after class:

💬 “It feels like a midweek reset I really look forward to. We always sleep so well afterwards.”
💬 “It’s not just about mobility — it’s the mental wellbeing and calm I get that makes the difference.”

It’s not about touching your toes. It’s about creating space in your body, calming your nervous system, and leaving lighter than when you arrived.

🗓 Wednesdays, 6.15–7.15pm
📍 Wellsway School Drama Studio, Keynsham
💷 £8.50 drop-in or £30 monthly pass

💛 New faces are always welcome — you don’t need any experience, just an open mind and a stiff body is fine!

Class starts back on September 3rd. Book your free class here: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/stretch-breathe-tickets-1128088275399?aff=oddtdtcreator

It was only when I went away on holiday recently that I realised just how much stress I’d been carrying.

For the first time in weeks, I had space to pause. To breathe. To notice.

And what I noticed wasn’t comfortable:
I’d been running on coffee, sleeping badly, craving sugar, and feeling heavy in more ways than one. I know the things that help me feel better - but in the rush of daily life, I’d slipped back into quick fixes instead of calm.

That pause made something clear to me:
Knowing what helps us and actually doing it are two very different things.

And I think so many of us live here - stretched too thin, trying to keep going, but never quite finding space to reset.

That’s why I care so deeply about this work. Because I know what it feels like to be tired, wired, and overwhelmed - and I also know the relief of finding your way back.

For me, that comes through the simple pillars I return to again and again:
🌿 Breathe - softening my breath and settling my nervous system.
🌿 Move - stretching out the tension that builds up from stress.
🌿 Rest - giving myself permission to pause, without guilt.

These aren’t fancy tools. They’re reminders. And when we practice them, even gently, they bring us back to ourselves.

So if life feels noisy for you right now, maybe this is your reminder: you don’t need to fix yourself. You just need a place to soften and begin again.

💛 I’d love to know — when was the last time you had space to pause?

I've been blown away this weel with messages and feedback I’ve had from clients.

Phrases like:

“I left feeling lighter, clearer, and completely grounded.”
“If you’re hurting — body, mind, or spirit — Sue is who you need.”
“It’s my midweek reset — I sleep so well afterwards.”
“Sue creates a space where I can finally let go.”

Just lovely.

It’s easy to get caught up in the doing — the posts, the planning, the admin — and forget the real reason we do this work.

This week, hearing how people feel after a session reminded me:

✨ Calm is possible.
✨ Change can happen gently.
✨ We all deserve spaces where we can breathe again.

If you’d like to be part of a community that helps you get there, I’d love to welcome you into I am Calm. 💛 https://www.facebook.com/groups/iamcalmwithsuehall

SOUL FAMILY

Call in your tribe. You don’t have to do it alone.

It is time to call in your soul family and support team. People who get you at soul level. People who are the same kind of weird as you. People who are your chosen family. They are coming and they are looking for you.

If you haven’t found them yet this is a sign that they are close by. But in order for them to find you and recognize you when they do, it is important that you stop dimming your light and truly let yourself be seen.

If you have already found them, then you are being called to let them support you and perhaps also assemble a wider support team. Your support team can consist of all types of people, such as a therapist, coach, mentor, or healer. Tune in to what kind of support you need now.
