NEW BLOG POST! I'm really interested in the 6 Dimensions of Wellness as a concept. So as we enter the season of colds, flu and Covid, what better time to think about our health - in all its aspects?

When we think of being well, we tend just to think of just our physical health, but there is much more to holistic wellness. Holistic is an adjective meaning ‘whole’, so where a doctor would focus on physical health, a psychologist on mental health, and a priest or rabbi on spiritual health, hol...

And the food is delicious….

It’s been ages since I’ve posted. I lost my dearest Mum in December and it’s been enough just getting through the days and weeks.

My practice has changed over the last year as it’s been so full on. When things were really intense I just tried to move my body first thing in the morning and last thing at night.

JOIN MY WINTER WORKSHOP SATURDAY 23 NOVEMBER!

Hi,

My workshops are a great way to deepen your practice and get more out of your yoga practice.

Here's what previous attendees have said:

"I came home full of joy and movement, and the feeling has continued through the day"

"The workshop was a complete gift to me and my aching bones!"

"The selection of asanas really demonstrated your expertise as a teacher. I felt as if I'd been to the gym, worked out, stretched, and toned"

The workshop is coming up soon on Saturday 23 November from 11am - 1pm. BOOK NOW through my website at www.poppypicklesyoga.com

Plus homemade cakes afterwards as always...
