Happy Mother’s Day! Today is a beautiful reminder of the nurturing, intuitive and receptive energy that lives within all of us. ✨

In yoga philosophy, this is often described as yin energy – slow, soft, reflective and grounding. It balances the more active, outward yang energy that many of us live in day-to-day.

But yin isn’t just for women, and feminine energy isn’t just for mothers.

We all carry both yin and yang within us, and practices like yin yoga help restore balance between the two.

To celebrate Mother’s Day, we’ve made a free Yin Yoga class available on the VetYogi Collective as a little gift to our community. 🌙

Whether you’re a mum, caring for others, or simply feeling the need to slow down and reconnect with yourself, this practice is here for you.

Take a pause. Soften. Receive.

International Women’s Day 👑

Last year we celebrated a whole host of women within the vet community doing incredible things, and we still love to see it!

This year we wanted to take the opportunity to show our appreciation for the expanding team of women specifically on the VetYogi Collective (Mark - we’ll shout you next time 😄)

Since launching our online yoga, meditation & wellbeing platform with just 2 teachers a couple of years ago, we’ve now welcomed several more from a wide variety of roles within veterinary & different backgrounds…

Between us, our VYC women are currently represented across first-opinion vetting, ECC vetting, specialist pathology & research, vet nursing, wildlife rehab, end-of-life care, mental health nursing, veterinary industry, lecturing, entrepreneurship, motherhood, environmentalism, coaching, leadership & so many more professional & life skills! 🙌🏻

The women on our platform come from several nations across the world, and bring their wealth of expertise & experience from different walks of life to our yoga, meditation, wellbeing, fitness & educational classes/content, as well as to our VetYogi and wider communities 💚

Women simply make everything better! Honoured to be surrounded by this amazing team, and forever grateful for the support, dedication, creativity & empowerment of women as a collective.

SPVS Congress 2026 🐛

Wonderful to be a part of the Demo Area showcasing calming breath work techniques that can be used during stressful moments in practice 🧘🏻‍♀️ Give us space and we will bring the shala vibes!

Our first event was definitely made by the people - amazing to have back for Team VY with special guest baby VetYogini too 👶🏾

Thanks to Lauren of for providing super comfy extra seating, and how lovely to be neighbours with Hannah of the fabulous 💚

As per usual, didn’t take enough pics/didn’t even get pics with most of the people we loved to see - sign of time well spent and enjoyed!

Huge thanks to the SPVS committee & organising team for having us, and congrats on an awesome event 🙌🏻

Modern life pulls us everywhere but here, yet ancient wisdom gently calls us back to now 🪷

Feeling present and in the moment shouldn’t be a luxury, and our brains are simply not wired to be constantly aware of everything happening everywhere else at all times!

When the past feels too heavy and the future too uncertain, the present is where we can be to regulate our nervous systems and feel more grounded.

Read our ‘Power of the Present Moment’ blog to find out how tending to the present moment plants seeds of peace in our lives 🌱

Puppy Yoga - Cute but is it Kind? 🐶

As someone who is both a vet and a yoga teacher, this is a topic I’ve been meaning to speak on for a while now…

Following a recent conversation with a well meaning client who assumed - given my dual career path - that I must be a big fan of it (spoiler alert - I’m not 😆), I’ve finally made time to sit down and articulate my thoughts & concerns properly around the inclusion of young puppies in public yoga classes:

Give it a read and drop your thoughts in the comments 👇🏻 Would also love to hear from any vet behaviour colleagues/friends with additional insights/knowledge to consider!

Valentine’s Day can be full of love & companionship, but it can also bring up challenging emotions around lack, loss & unfulfilled hopes/expectations.

Given that we believe true love starts from within, we return to the heart of the practice: Ahimsa - non-violence in thought, word & action 💚

“If you truly loved yourself, you could never hurt another” - Lord Buddha

When we meet ourselves with compassion, patience, & kindness, that love naturally ripples through us - spilling out and nourishing our relationships, our communities & ourselves

If you are struggling today - and for many of us, truly feeling love towards ourselves can be uncomfortable or an alien feeling - treat yourself as you would a pet or animal in your care! Do even just one thing to show yourself some love, such as taking yourself for a walk, getting a little treat, words of affirmation, or getting cosy in your favourite spot…

Have you tried Yoga Nidra?🌛

I recently had the pleasure of introducing the Oakhill Vet teams to Yoga Nidra - otherwise known as the yogic sleep - for the first time, with a great turnout!

Nobody present had tried Yoga Nidra before, so it is always an honour to introduce veterinary colleagues to new wellbeing practices, and this one is particularly good for those:

⏰ Working shifts and switching between day & night sleep schedules
🫩 Experiencing fatigue or tiredness even after several hours of sleep
🧠 Feeling a disconnect between the mind & body
⛔️ Overwhelmed by stress and/or concerned about burnout

This deeply restorative practice acts directly on our brainwaves, transitioning us into calmer states. It’s extremely impactful, with 1 hour of Yoga Nidra having been demonstrated to be as restful as 4 hours of non-REM sleep! 💤

To learn more about Yoga Nidra, and especially how veterinary professionals can utilise it, check out the article I wrote for .australia & .newzealand last year: https://partners-in-practice-au.partica.online/editions/partners-in-practice-october-2025/flipbook/14/

Having worked night shifts this past weekend, Yoga Nidra is my go-to practice before going back on shift, especially if I haven’t slept particularly well during the day.

What is your experience of Yoga Nidra? If you want to try it we have several classes available on the VetYogi Collective: https://collective.vetyogi.com

“You’re only as young as your spine is strong and supple”

If you work in veterinary, that is likely to hit home for you! 😫

Neck pain. Upper back tension. Lower back twinges that take away your invincibility. Touching your toes while bending a distant memory. Back pain & injuries are way too common in the veterinary field, but it doesn’t have to be YOUR normal…

We’re here to help, with 3 easy, beginner-friendly yoga poses you can do:
🩺 In-between consults & before starting surgery
🦷 After being hunched over that immovable dental table
🐾 To bring relief from contorting yourself holding patients
