POV: your yoga teacher says “take shavasana”
From effort to ahhh 😌

Shavasana = final relaxation in yoga, where you lie down and let the body fully rest and integrate the practice.

No doing. No fixing. Just letting the nervous system settle.

And honestly… this is where the real magic happens.

A gentle New Year ritual 🌑✨

Instead of rushing into resolutions, I’m choosing to slow down, reflect, and listen to what my body and nervous system actually need.

This simple ritual can be done with a cup of ceremonial cacao (or any warm drink) and a few quiet minutes to yourself. No pressure. No fixing. Just honest reflection.

✨ Journaling prompts for the year past and year ahead (in the carousel)
✨ Nervous-system-friendly practices
✨ Soft, grounding, intentional

Save this for January and share with a friend that also feels the call to slow down and reflect. 🤍

Every January we’re told to push harder, set bigger goals, and become a “better version” of ourselves.

More goals.
More discipline.
More becoming someone else.

But for many of us, healing doesn’t come from pushing harder it comes from helping the nervous system feel safe enough to soften.

This year, my intention is simple:
less pressure, more regulation.
less forcing, more listening.

Rather than making unrealistic expectations I will focus on gentle movement and moments of presence.

Sometimes healing starts with slowing down enough to feel what’s already here.

I started to heal when I realised how much of my day I was moving through as if I was in danger.

The other day I was walking in the forest and noticed I was rushing, walking fast, shoulders slightly braced, breath shallow, even though there was nowhere to get to.

The moment I realised, I slowed my pace.
I felt my feet on the ground.
I let my breath drop lower.
And my body softened almost immediately.

So many of us live in a subtle state of survival without realising it, jaw clenched, breath held, nervous system always scanning. It might have helped us cope or stay productive once, but over time it pulls us away from presence, ease, and connection.

Slowing down isn’t giving up.
It’s communicating with our nervous system.
It’s how we teach the body that it’s safe to be here now.
So take a deep breath, relax your shoulders and soften your jaw.

Let this be your reminder to slow down. 🤍

Yoga classes

As a yoga and pilates teacher I encourage each individual to move in a way that is beneficial to them. In my offerings, I integrate my knowledge of anatomy and physiology with the subtleties of the energetic body. I strive to bring a balance in my teaching, of flexibility and strength, of stillness and movement, of grounding and spirituality.
