There is so much more to yoga than what we see in physical poses.

It is a practice that has layers, each encouraging you to get to know yourself a little better; to meet yourself where you are.

If you are thinking about starting, hesitating because you think ‘you’re not flexible enough,’ or think there isn’t something in yoga for you, then swipe through the above.

And if you would like to start, then drop me a DM or comment ‘start’ and we can begin together.

Feeling tired, overwhelmed or like you just need things to slow down? Then try this mini restorative sequence to soothe the nervous system.

Restorative yoga is a wonderful way to release some mental and physical tension in a supportive way. Sometimes it can feel like life is always asking more of us. Do more, keep up, you need to do this now… Restorative yoga instead just asks us to stay. To rest and let the tightly wound parts of ourselves soften and release.

You can adapt and make these poses work for your unique body. I have used a bolster and a block below, but a couple of bed pillows and a book work just as well.

You can explore each pose for five minutes and remember some require you to do both sides.

1. Restorative child’s pose.
Turn head for each side.

2. Supported half frog pose.
Swap sides after 5 minutes.

3. Supported Savasana
I’ve called this supported Savasana, but really my favourite is “premium economy” that my teacher used to say!

4. Legs up against the wall.

Save this sequence for a day when you need to unwind and release some tension.

We explore practices such as these in my monthly Rest Club. A 2.5 hour mini retreat dedicated to slowing down. Think restorative yoga, a gong bath, plenty of rest, plus tea and brownies. Next Rest Club runs November 16. Join us via the link in the bio.

Some kind words from lovely yogis ✨

I’m so grateful to each and every person who chooses to join our little community for a class, Rest Club, retreat or subscribes to my online membership.

Each offering comes from my own constant exploration of these practices. As a forever student, I’m here for the practices that sustain and support us through the many chapters of our lives.

A big thanks to those of you who make up our wonderful community. And for those thinking about joining, you can join us any time - you would be most welcome.

An afternoon retreat dedicated to exploring our relationship to rest through gentle yoga and sound practices.

A big thanks to all who joined us for October’s Rest Club ♥️

I truly believe that the more we practice rest, in safe and supportive environments, the more it will impact our everyday. Helping us to see the patterns and grooves that are keeping us in cycles of exhaustion.

Next Rest Club is November 16. Join us by heading to the link in the bio.

Alternate nostril breathing, or Nadi Shodhana pranayama, can be a great practice for soothing the nervous system and a busy mind.

We have been exploring this in classes of late, as we ease into autumn with a focus on bringing balance and feeling grounded.

Naturally, not all practices suit all bodies, and if practicing in the above way doesn’t feel good for you, here is a variation you can try:

1) if closing off the nostril feels like holding the breath and creates anxiety, then let the hands come into the lap and instead move your awareness - rather than directly altering the path of your breath - between sides. If the image of a baseless triangle works for you, shift your awareness between each side, making sure to stay and finish on the left side.

Practice for a few rounds, perhaps 5-10, of whatever feels good in your body. Notice how you feel, in your mind and your body, after the practice.

Life lately… ✨

1 & 2: Such a pleasure to be back sharing a practice for one of ’ retreat days. These nourishing events are always so beautifully thought out and it’s always a really supportive space. I shared a restorative practice at the start of the day; exploring rest, how we experience rest and ways to facilitate it in our bodies and our everyday.

3: An evening watching Oasis at Wembley topping off a busy summer of live music.

4: My new Friday morning class at is such a joy. Grateful to everyone who has been coming along and making it a regular feature in their week.

5: Dog walks at (earlier) sunsets are helping me with the seasonal shift. Thick socks already a necessity.

Rest. An act of rebellion.

I talk about rest as a practice. As I know in my own practice - having met burnout many times - that it feels easier almost to just keep going.

I don’t believe I was ever taught the power of rest, or how rest might feel in my body. And in developing my own relationship to rest and exploring this with others, it’s something I need to practice as much as everything else.

These monthly mini retreats are an exploration of rest. Of discovering how it feels to slow down, take up space and consider how letting go of the fixing, rushing and chasing could feel.

I truly see rest as an act of rebellion in our busy society.

If you would like to come and practice rest with us, please join. These inclusive practices are soothing, nourishing and suitable for all.

Rest Clubs are back after the summer break and I couldn’t be happier.

These monthly mini retreats are dedicated to practicing the art of slowing down. And I say ‘practicing’ very deliberately, as choosing to rest and explore ways to relax can feel much less familiar than stress and burnout. Resting itself is a practice.

Each Rest Club invites us to consider our relationship to rest. How it feels in our bodies and what helps us to let go.

We explore gentle, restorative yoga and floor-based sequences, breath practices and awareness, along with a gong journey.

Here’s a snapshot of our latest Rest Club. Thank you to everyone who joined us.

If you’re looking for a truly restorative and relaxing afternoon, it would be lovely to have you.

Next dates are:

Sunday, October 12
Sunday, November 16
