As I drink my first cup of coffee on the morning of the first day of a new year ,about to do my yoga practice , I feel the excitement of what lies ahead those that know me , know I’m a January person , I love the stillness and the space to reflect and plan for lots of time with all of you the people that fill my life with love and laughter

Happiest of days ahead to all of us

And this incredible book from my son Ben reminds me of all the things I truly value in life.

The beautiful Buddhist mantra I think sums up what we all wish for

Om Mani Pädme Hum.

“Blessing to all beings “

Welcome 2026 and all you hold

It’s been an exciting few days for me in my role as President of the Federation of Holistic therapists, working at Therapy Expo .

Therapy Expo is the UK’s leading multi-disciplinary event for professionals dedicated to preventing, treating, and rehabilitating musculoskeletal and neurological conditions .

By uniting physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, massage therapists, sports therapists, exercise rehabilitation instructors, physical trainers and more, Therapy Expo is the only UK event that bridges the gap between every discipline and fosters an integrated approach to client recovery and performance optimisation.

For me, it’s a privilege to help you take care of your health and wellbeing , with therapies , yoga / meditation classes and retreats .

I’m always excited to learn new skills

As a yoga teacher there's nothing greater than practising what you teach. Myself and my beauful friend Laura Bateman spent our second week in Italy at the OLEA yoga retreat Center with in the pretty village of Torri in Sabina .

We quickly became a yogi family of 16 , practicing yoga meditation and breath work daily , eating home cooked Italian food and just being present in nature and friendship.

These moments when we stop and reflect are so powerful. Feeling super chilled and flexible 💖

Is it really March already ? I may have been quite here on Facebook , but it's been a super busy few months. Loving the beginning of the year as always I been taking super good care of myself. Listening to all the advice I give my Clients, meditation students and yoga students, to retreat for a little while from socials to take stock .

Here's what I've been doing in that time. Catching up with friends at Number 1 therapy rooms. Planning lots of relaxing yin yoga classes for my students. Judging the National Beauty Awards and training in new treatments .

And tonight it's the Proffesional Beauty Awards at The Brewery Montcalm in London .

So better get my posh frock on ready to watch the worthy winners collect their trophies .
