So happy to have found a wild sauna in the area!

This is one of my favourite ways to keep cold water dipping through a long winter... I believe it's my 5th year of all season swimming/dipping 😃

Why?!!!
Because it's crazy good for the mind and especially with sauna, helps get any stress tension

Strong, connected, free

I believe we can hack our unhealthy and sometimes disappointing modern lives by getting out into the wild, facing the challenges of nature and the elements to rediscover our natural state of health and strength, both physically and mentally. Yoga is an important part of this project - but not the whole thing ;)

I hated the first yoga class I did. I didn’t want to admit that it was hard so I told myself it was too slow for me! The truth was that I found holding positions challenging, both physically and mentally, I didn’t have the patience, I wanted instant sensation.

Years later, after recurring knee problems brought on by lots of intense sport someone told me to try hot yoga. I was pretty desperate by then, thinking I’d have to give up sports aged 30 and the local studio was on my doorstep. That didn’t give me much excuse so along I went. It was hard, it hurt, I struggled...and at the end I felt superhuman. So I went back, and within a few weeks I could feel my knee was much better. A lot of the tension in my legs had released and I also started to see my muscles developing, skin clearing and body generally shaping up.

I looked into the science, I started reading about this magic that seemed to be healing me and I kept practising. I got hooked on the superhuman feeling it brought and dedicated a lot of time to practising, working diligently on my postures, paying attention to alignment but all the time fighting myself mentally. The classes were hard, hot and long. After a few years of practising in the studio and independently on my travels, I started to pay more attention to the mental side. I found I could calm myself in intense moments and fresh ideas filled my head as I lay exhausted on the mat at the end of class. I started to notice new confidence, compassion and resilience in myself. Maybe this was just life experience, who knows... but it seemed linked to what I was doing in the studio.
