A few snaps from an impromptu balcony practice after the storm 🌞🌝🧘‍♀️
Sorry for sporadic posting - I don’t teach as regularly anymore and my yoga practice is not instagrammable all the time but trust me I’m still here ☺️

Happiest in cold water ❄️💦🧊

Hello from my barrel! I have been absent from my yoga page for a while whilst busy looking after our puppy 🐶 And I have embraced cold water immersion to a point where… well yes I have my own barrel now 🛢️🥶 So expect more puppy/swimming content here now 🤪

Etude: Yin yoga on the terrace with a cat 🧘‍♀️🐈

I finally acclimatised enough to not feel too hot whilst doing a bit of yoga. ☀️🥵

In these temperatures I wouldn’t attempt anything but Yin but I enjoyed a relaxing stretch - much needed after my first time on a paddleboard! I was accompanied by a ginger stray who was very curious and tried to do a big scratch on the mat 😂

Mama enjoyed a long savasana on a lounger and took some photos 📸

Hope you all had a nice weekend too! I am totally ready for some cooler weather now ☁️☃️

🌲The Hidden Language of Vrikshasana

The importance of the tree, physically and spiritually, is shown in legends of ancient civilisations. Recognition of the powerful symbol the tree has been for centuries helps us to rise above self-importance and achieve a different perspective on life.

🌴Think of the symbol of the Tree and what it means to you.

🌳Spend 5-10 minutes working with the asana and observe how the physical position relates to the symbol of the tree. Keep your awareness alive through observing and feeling.

🍁Try practising the pose whilst looking at (or visualising) the symbol. What can that tree teach you?

🌿Reflect on the word ‘tree’. What thoughts and images come to mind? For example: bark, crown, fruits, shade, strength and so on.
Write your key words and associations down and then practice Vrikshasana with one of the key words in mind.

🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

Love who you are
and
love who you love

I am lucky to be in London right now at the heart of so many important events and places paving the way for the freedoms we are so lucky to have now and that so many other countries are yet to achieve (although by no means we have reached the destination).

I’ll be celebrating by visiting a brand new Q***r Museum and educating myself further 🙌

Let us be inspired by nature, for she
“in her limitlessness, has no concern for the boundaries of our mortal imaginations”.

Finding nature of freedom / freedom of nature in South Wales last weekend!

Hope you have also been able to interact with the great outdoors and be recharged!

What an incredible person!!! And yet we complain about plank after 10 seconds. Let’s be more like her ☺️

📿Rituals📿

Do you need rituals for your yoga practice? 🧘And what I mean by rituals is - do you have a routine where you light a candle or an incense, put your music on, maybe make a special cup of tea? 🕯🫖
Do you need those to help you ease into practise?

I used to be very regimented about my routine and those small rituals. And I realised that often they were a distraction and just postponing the yoga part. So I stripped all of those, now often not even rolling the mat out to get some practise in (sorry 🤓).

What are your essentials for practice? Let me know in comments!
