I've purposly been spending less time creating content on here as I process a painful chapter in my personel life. Right now, protecting my peace matters more than showing up online.

A little carousel of poetry, memes and simple quotes to dip my toes back in, I've simply felt too exhauted and contracted to be in a creative place on socials.

As emotionally exhausted as I am, my work (outside of this digital space) is giving me purpose and light.

Connecting with you all in person over the past couple of months has been a gift.

Grateful my summer retreat has sold out without the need to even publish it on this platform, it's as if the universe is saying it's ok to not always be seen on here.

The darkness of winter is slowly thawing, let's see what the first buds of spring bring. I'll emerge from my cocoon in this digital space when the time feels right.

I can’t wait to welcome you back to my homeland in North Wales for this special mini day retreat ✨️

As winter softens and day and night come back into balance, the Spring Equinox invites a gentle pause between rest and renewal.

A space to move, warm, refresh and reconnect with yourself and the rhythms of the season.

Join us for a day of therapeutic yoga & somatics, nature, sauna and cold plunge in a peaceful rural setting.

This retreat always sells out and there are now only five spaces remaining.

Come play! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I’m really excited to share this.
On Thursday 22nd January, I’ll be part of a panel conversation at CUPRA City Garage Manchester called Power to Purpose — an evening exploring career shifts, purpose-led work and what it really takes to build a values-driven life in the wellness space.
Alongside Dom and Corinne, we’ll be talking honestly about leaving secure corporate careers, redefining strength and success, and navigating the courage it takes to choose purpose over predictability.
This one feels especially relevant for yoga teachers, fitness professionals, creatives, and anyone standing at the edge of a career change.
It’s free to attend and open to all.

I’m eye-rolling at the surge of rushed “Lunar / Chinese New Year” content online — pushing instant transformation and goal-setting, with confused references to leaping from the Snake straight to the Horse.

A gentle reminder: Lunar New Year actually falls between late January and mid-February, and here in the Northern Hemisphere, nature is still deep in winter.

Seeds are planted in darkness.
Rest is not falling behind.

I’ll be leaning into new beginnings in spring, when my energy (and the land) naturally rises.

You won’t be seeing an annual recap from me this year — I’m tired, and I’m listening to that.

If you listened to your body instead of the calendar, what would it choose?

Wishing you a gentle, restful transition into 2026.

Winter Solstice is almost upon us - who else is ready to hibernate, eat all the cheese and recharge?

Hello to everyone new (especially after the BBC feature!) — I’m Eirian, a Manchester-based Yoga Therapist blending somatic movement, rhythm + rest to help folk ease stress, sleep better and feel more like themselves again.

Also: lifelong raver. 🙃
Rhythm, movement and community have always supported my wellbeing — whether it’s a dancefloor, a car rave or a moment of release in practice.

I also support women navigating the emotional tides of perimenopause, a chapter I’m moving through myself.

If you’re already feeling that early-winter pull — wanting to slow down & hibernate while the world speeds into sparkle, party plans and pressure — you’re not alone.

Before December gets loud & busy, I’m hosting a FREE 3-day mini online retreat as a Festive Gift...

✨ A Season to Soften ✨
A gentle pause to breathe, unwind
and reconnect with your natural rhythm —
a quiet corner to rest, reset + return to yourself.

We begin 5th December.

🍂 Autumn & the energy of letting go...

Saying you want to let go is one thing. Actually doing it is really damn hard.

There are things we simply can’t control. Situations that ask us to surrender. To feel the rise of uncomfortable rage & unsettling anxiety. To meet the edge of resistance… and then let it MOVE through.

So here’s your reminder: stomp it out, shake it off, pivot perspective… and trust, trust, trust.

And when it all feels like too much? Gather your closest friends, cocoon yourself in blankets & Halloween films, or get witchy on walks through the woods — it is spooky season after all 🎃✨

I’m off on retreat this weekend with my sister at a women’s gathering with bring on singing out our hearts in Kirtan and resting deeply with Yoga Nidra.

What’s helping you move through this season?

I used to think menopause was something that happened much later...

But in our late 30s + 40s, many of us enter an inner autumn —the perimenopause transition to menopause.

It can often feel like everything is shifting…
sleep, moods, energy all blustering around with hormonal shifts.

Through the lens of Yoga Therapy + Ayurveda, this is Vata season — wind, space, movement.

And with it comes an invitation to root down, listen deeply, and reclaim your energy for what truly matters.

This is a shift in rhythm, not a decline —
it’s a gathering-in, a chance to align with your body’s wisdom, finding trust within change.

🍂 Did you think perimenopause started much later too?
