✨Feeling so blessed + grateful✨

Last night was such a joy. Our monthly mini retreat at Fern Bothy filled my heart – what an absolute privelage it is to share space and practice with such incredible humans. 💛

We honoured the shift from Late Summer into Autumn with a nourishing Seasonal Yoga practice for the Earth Element – the perfect support during times of transition.

🌿 We moved slowly + deeply through our Seasonal practice which included aome nourishingYin yoga (a style of yoga where poses are held for longer, helping us soften into the body, release tension and bring balance to the nervous system).

💨 We explored a heart-centred breath practice + meditation on the heart centre - called 'Hridaya'.
📝 Quiet guided journalling allowed us to reflect on what we wish to cultivate as we move towards Autumn.
🌙 And as always, we closed with a dreamy guided Yoga Nidra relaxation, before sharing herbal teas, treats + beautiful connection time.

These evenings are honestly soul food - a chance to step out of your busy week and nourish your body and mind ✨

🍂 If you’d love to join, we have just two more nourishing mini retreats in 2025:

🍂Soon we arrive at the Autumn Equinox – a moment of perfect balance between light and dark, day and night. In nature, it marks the tipping point from the outward energy of summer to the inward energy of the colder months. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this shift resonates with the Metal element, reminding us of the importance of balance, release, and clarity. Just as the trees let go of their leaves, we are invited to gently let go of what no longer serves us, creating space for stillness, rest, and renewal.

🍁 The Organs of Autumn
In TCM, Autumn is linked to the Lungs + Large Intestine. Together, they support the flow of taking in what we need and releasing what we don’t. When balanced, we feel resilient, clear, and calm. When out of balance, we may experience low immunity, grief, stubbornness, or a sense of being stuck.

🧘‍♀️ Seasonal Yoga for Autumn
On the mat, Autumn practices focus on the breath, grounding flows with focus on the lung and large intestine meridians in the arms, and meditations that help us soften, release, and find clarity. Off the mat, lifestyle choices like eating warm, cooked seasonal foods, embracing quiet reflection and cultivating discernment in our lives all help us stay in balance. We can ask ourself the question 'what do I wish to shed as I move into Autumn?'

✨ This is why I love teaching Seasonal Yoga – it connects us with nature’s rhythm and gives us tools to feel aligned, resilient, and supported through every season. Yoga is so much more than the shapes we make on our mat...its about how we love our life.

✨ How whole do you feel inside? How complete do you feel as a human being? ✨

I’ve been reflecting on these questions this week in my own practice. It’s such a radical question, isn’t it? Because so often we’re told happiness lives just around the corner. When we finally get that promotion… buy the bigger house… book the dream holiday… find the perfect partner… collect another qualification.
And yet… how long does the glow of those things really last? Hours? Days? Maybe a few months, before the next craving sets in.

In yoga philosophy, there’s this beautiful concept called Santosha – contentment. It’s not about giving up on goals or never wanting more. It’s about pausing long enough to notice the fullness that’s already here. The simple, steady joy that doesn’t rely on external “stuff” but rises from inside.

Our society and pace of life can easily make us feel 'less than' and that we are constantly chasing the next thing...but what if we are already enough?

So grateful to be on this continued path of learning...and I'm on the last few months of my 500 hour yoga teacher training. This module we are exploring the Niyama of Santosha (contentment) and what is means to be happy.

I can't wait to explore these ideas in class this week and look forward to getting back on the mat with you all this week. I love weaving yoga philosophy into our movement and breath, and looking at ways we can bring yoga off the mat and into our real lives. Because yoga isn’t just what happens on the mat, it’s how we show up in the world. 🌿

🧘‍♀️ This week’s classes:
✨ Mum & Baby Yoga – Thurs 11am (last class of term, drop-ins welcome)
✨ Seasonal Yoga – Thurs 6pm Abbey Church, North Berwick
✨ Seasonal Yoga – Thurs 8pm Cockenzie House

I'd love to hear your thoughts...what makes you truly happy? What brings you contentment? What does it mean to be happy?

What does yoga mean to you? ✨️

I’ve been having some really interesting conversations this week about yoga and the barriers people sometimes feel are in the way of joining a class. Again and again I hear:

✨ “I’m not flexible enough”
✨ “I don’t have the energy”
✨ “I don’t have the right clothes or equipment”

Do any of these resonate with you?
But here’s the truth: you don’t need to be bendy to practice yoga, you don’t need fancy equipment or clothing, and you certainly don’t need to feel like you have it all together. Yoga meets you exactly where you are.

The Yoga sutras tell us that yoga is so much more than the shapes we make on our mat (in fact in the whole of Patanjali's Sutras there are very little mention of asana (postures) with the primary focus of a practice being to bring stillness and clarity to the mind.

For me, yoga is so much more than shapes on a mat. 🌿
Yoga is the way we come home to ourselves. It’s breathing through the chaos and finding stillness in the storm. It’s stilling the busy waves of the mind. Yoga is union — dissolving the illusion that we are separate. It’s reconnecting with who we really are beneath all the noise. Yoga is seeing things as they really are.

That’s why I truly believe yoga is for everyone. My classes are a space where all parts of you are welcome — no pressure, no judgement, just a safe and supportive community. 🧘‍♀️💛 I welcome beginners and seasoned yogis alike and everyone will be met with a warm welcome and given the opportunity to develop their practice.

🌸 My weekly classes:
🤰 Pregnancy Yoga — Tuesdays 6:15pm
👶 Mum & Baby Yoga — Thursdays 11am
🍂 Seasonal Yoga — Thursdays 6pm Abbey Church North Berwick & 8pm Cockenzie House

Come as you are, and let yoga meet you there. ✨

Did you know that in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), each season is connected to a pair of organs – and when we work with nature’s rhythm, we nourish both body + mind on a much deeper level? 🌿

Right now, we’re in Late Summer – the beautiful bridge between the full Yang of Summer and the Yin of the colder months. It's the season of the Earth element, linked to the Stomach + Spleen. These two organs are all about digestion and nourishment, and balancing them can help us feel nourished, grounded and supported– not just from the food we eat, but from everything in our life that we consume 💛

🌱 Why it matters:
When Stomach + Spleen energy is balanced, we feel centred, balanced, and nourished. Out of balance? We might feel heavy, bloated, foggy-headed, or stuck in worry.

🧘‍♀️ Seasonal Yoga helps us align with nature’s flow.

In Late Summer we practice grounding flows, breathwork to balance the nervous system, and meditations that bring us back to our centre.

🥗 Lifestyle Tip: Support your Earth element with warm, cooked foods, root veg, and gentle self-compassion.

✨ This is why I love teaching Seasonal Yoga – it is so much more than the poses we make on the mat...its about learning to live in alignment with Nature, learning to take our yoga practice off the mat and into our real life. Seasonal Yoga gives us a toolkit to live in harmony with the seasons, supporting body, mind + spirit all year round.

✨ Two years of Wild Tide Yoga ✨

I honestly can’t believe it’s been 2 whole years since Wild Tide Yoga began. What started as a little seed of a dream has grown into the most beautiful community of souls — two years of yoga, of connection, of new friendships and the most incredible shared experiences.

I feel so deeply grateful to every single one of you who has stepped onto a mat, tried yoga for the very first time, brought your baby along, written a review, or told a friend about class. Meeting you all has hands down been the very best part of being a yoga teacher. I truly believe people cross paths for a reason, and I’m so humbled to have met each and every one of you. 💛

If you’re feeling called to explore yoga — whether that’s rolling out a mat for the first time, diving into meditation, or finding support through pregnancy and early motherhood — Wild Tide Yoga is here to walk with you. Together we honour the seasons, the changing tides of life, and the journey back to your truest self. 🌊

Last year we celebrated with a big party on the beach...this year things will be more low key as I'm slowly returning to full energy...but we will have cake in our Seasonal Yoga classes this Thursday evening. Come join us for the cake!! (And some yoga too!)

Here’s to the next chapter… I can’t wait to see where it takes us!

Classes this week:
🌸 Pregnancy Yoga — Tuesdays 6:15pm

"When we take care of ourselves, we take care of this world. This is because we are nature, manifest in human form." — Mimi Kuo-Deemer

I've loved reading little extracts from Mimi Kuo-Deemer's incredible book 'Qi-Gong and the Tai Chi Axis'. This quote above really jumped out at me this week as we explore the beautiful season of Late Summer in our classes.

I've been trying to live much closer to my own true essence this term and take time to pause, immerse in nature and be with family....all things that felt so hard to find time for last year amidst the craziness of moving house, settling into a new community, new school for my girls and juggling working, teaching and studying...

Today’s nature escape was all about switching off, grounding in nature, and letting Mother Earth heal what our 'always-on' world has often made it hard to do. There’s real magic in just being—whether that's like us today feeling the rush of the water, or even just the grass beneath your feet - the freedom that comes when you surrender to simplicity.

Our trip was fuelled by a thermos of home made chicken noodle soup and delicious bread and pastries from

As we move into late summer, TCM reminds us this is the season of the Earth element—a beautiful invitation to cultivate nourishment, steadiness, and inner integration. It’s time to tune into your Spleen and Stomach, our inner center of digestion, clarity, and emotional balance .
Ground yourself with warm, soothing foods, screen-free moments, and rhythms that honor the season’s gentle shift toward harvest and reflection.

I'm so excited to share practices that nourish, restore and align with the rhythms of Late Summer. If you'd like to embrace a more seasonally aligned pace of life, here's where you'll find me this week:
