Happy New Year 🌟

This is last night’s sun down. A beautiful sight watched with my family from a frosty forest.

This year I’m considering what I can add to life. It feels like this dark part of the year is not the time for taking pleasures away… I advance grew myself a windowsill of pea shoots and am looking at ways to make space for myself to lay down the roots needed for shoots 🌱

No brutalising myself into something smaller here this year thank you ☺️

Beginning tonight with a free first session ✨

Guided simple practices that are all about taking the pause that’s long been the tradition at these transitional points of the year.   The solstice marks the point where the days are shortest, and the nights are long, here in the northern hemisphere. While we’re still in the depths of the winter it can remind us there is light to come.

Echoing nature, with a gentle call to rest before the big give of xmas comes around.

Everyone who joins for session 1 will also get all the ‘Twixtmas’ tools for surviving the bit inbetween. But really those are just the start of this embodied journey into Winter.

We’ll be whispering a firm FU to the ‘New You’ BS that will be buzzing around January.

The depths of winter are not necessarily the time for big challenge, if we follow the seasons then staying under a blanket, nurturing ourselves with space and time while planting the seeds and tending to the embers could be a more natural start to a year.

Our themes:
22nd December - Slowdown
The Inbetween - practices for balancing slow/go
5th Jan - Embers
17th Jan - Unfurling
2nd Feb - The Spark

Warmest wishes to all as we approach the solstice ✨

Thanks to and every single one of the delightful humans who joined us tonight to acknowledge the longest night. Nurturing the brightness to come and reflecting on the year past.

It’s Mother’s Night this evening. A time to honour the female line of ancestors (including Mother Earth herself) 🌍 I love how it coincides with this long night and the path of our planetary home. I will be lighting a candle for these guardians, and for all mothers burning the candle at both ends to make the season magical for their families. I see you.

🔥🌿🩵✨

I’m back at Wildcat on Sat 3rd Jan. If you can’t wait til then, see you Monday evening online for a sweet hour of lying / sitting down and not doing whatever is on that list that isn’t as important as resting.

Chloe and I will be hosting again for Imbolc at the start of February. Tickets out for that soon 🤍

15/12/2025

Thanks for inviting me 🌿 What a beautiful spot you have there - really special.

Wonderful to whisk you all ✨

If the run up to Christmas is feeling like an uphill struggle… like you’re going against nature’s call to slow down and pause, you might like to join us next Monday 🕯️

As my gift to the lovely humans that I get to work with, this session is free. I know how hard it can be to make a little time for yourself amongst the Christmas hustle, but I think you’ll find you’re a little more able to function through the season of neon hyper-giving if you do.

• 75 mins of floor/seat-based movement and mindfulness to help you catch up with yourself and approach xmas with your cup a little fuller ✨

Perfect for busy folk who are doing their best to make Xmas magical for others and need a little for themselves 🌟

Monday 22nd December 7.15pm (recording available for a week after)

Bonus 🎁 you’ll also get a series of twixtmas practices for the hinterland zone. Ideal if you’re travelling, hosting or pausing.

There’s also the option to carry on through to the start of February if you would like to carry on with the winter nurture rather than launch into ‘new me mode’

🌿 signup via my website or send me a message and I can sort you out

Looking forward to co-creating some solstice sauna magic with at Wildcat Community Sauna on Friday 19th December 🔥

It’s our first evening ritual, perfect for bringing focus to light in the darkness as we mark the turning of the year and the start of gradual return of the light ✨

Chloë will be guiding a sauna journey in one sauna while I offer some whisking and aromas in the other 🌿 Still a couple of spots left if you’d like to join us. Head over to website / bio to get booked in.

Beaut of a Friday yesterday!

✨ Arrived back in Frome in time for the Lantern Parade - feels good when the town comes together. That also means we’re fast heading for 🎄 eeep!
