I have a few spaces left for the first aid course I'm running in 16 October, it will be at the very beautiful teacher training academy, London Fields. 9-5pm, £100

It's very accessible, fun and informative course that's fully regulated and complies with all the HSE standards, valid for 3 years.

We share experiences and learn from each other and together. You'll get to experience practical learning with resus dolls and also have a go with defib machines. You'll go home fully qualified (I promise!) with a mini first aid kit and a resource book to refer back to any of our learning.

I'm really proud of this course I've developed, as someone who has historically struggled in learning environments due to inaccessible teachings, I've worked hard to make sure it's inclusive, accessible and adaptable to each students needs, so much so that I have 92% of students returning to repeat the course with me when their qualification has expired.

More info on my website, I haven't got any fancy booking system so book via email or DM!

I signed up for therapy this month, not because I feel ill but because I want to stay well, it feels like a refreshing approach to my health and wellbeing that I am honouring, a bit like a gym membership I guess. I believe that getting to know myself more, finding those hidden parts of me lurking in the subconscious and start to see how they play out in the now will help to increase self awareness, self compassion and overall a feeling of wellbeing.

I never used to think I had things hidden away, I guess we probably all don’t, but the mind has an incredible way of protecting ourselves and its a little bit like an iceberg, we see whats on the surface but you got to dive in to see whats below. I’ve been diving into the deep in a psychological therapy training I am just finishing, where I’ve discovered memories of events, experiences and feelings that were buried deep below the surface into the subconscious, things that I had forgotten or didn’t even know existed.

Talking therapy is powerful, more so than I thought and combined with more body based, yoga therapy, it can be a very powerful experience to support health, wellbeing and regulation.

We've been sold the idea that if we just try hard enough, breathe more deeply, move more in our bodies, journal morning and night, meditate daily, we can regulate our emotions all on our own.

But here's the truth, we are biologically hard wired for connection. From the moment we are born, our nervous systems learn to regulate through the presence of others, this is called co-regulation. The way our bodies and brains settle when we feel seen, safe and supported with someone else and when we know that others are also experiencing safety, support and security is one of the biggest factors for positive health and wellbeing.

We are not designed to do it all alone, we never have been and we never will be. So if you're moving, shaking, tapping, releasing, resting, breathing, journaling, meditating and you still feel s**t, know that you're not failing but it's a cue for connection.

Lean into others, move towards communities, get offline and go outside, make eye contact, smile at the bus driver, offer your seat to someone, play peakaboo with the babies, put your map away and ask for directions, sit closer on the sofa, have a chat with a stranger.m, go to the yoga studio.

Let's normalise needing each other, let's normalise and emphasise connection with others rather than just to ourselves.

It's been 9 months today since Bonnie moved from the seas of my womb. A day of celebration, a day of remembrance and a day of deep reverence. For the divine mystery of nature, for my incredible body, for our love, for our sweetest Louis, for my caring community and for Bonnie's heavenly presence in our lives. It's taken me a long time to surrender to motherhood and whilst I don't know much, I do know that nothing will ever come in front of me being a constant presence for her in this mad, mad world.

'Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday'

It's World Maternal Mental Health Day today, a topic that wasn't even recognised 50 years ago (typical patriarchy) and yet 1 in 4 of us mothers will, at some point struggle with our mental health. How could we not? Other than birth and death, it's the biggest transition a human being can go through physically, psychologically, emotionally, spiritually, energetically politically, and even environmentally!

There are so many risk factors to developing poor mental health pre and postnatal but also so many protective factors.

I've been reflecting on my own journey with my mental health since having my babies and it's definitely been an uphill struggle. But I consider myself to be lucky, because as well as having safety, I've had a solid community that has been held me through the joys and the struggles and that's just the tonic needed to stay afloat. Community is the biggest protective factor for maternal health, and probably all health, people to listen to the struggles, share the joy, lighten the load and walk along with you up the hill.

Gratitude for the community who have held me through both the joys and the struggles and thinking about those that have yet to find their community.

Special thanks to for having mine and other mums backs.

A yoga practice always has capacity to shift one's state of being, but there's something a little more magic about going to a pregnancy yoga class and being with other women on a similar journey, in community.

Join me in community for some pregnancy yoga next week!

I never anticipated how much mothering pulls on every ounce of head space, energy and time without giving a minute to top up the reserves for the next sleepless night, the next morning meltdown, the next breast feed. Abandoned breakfasts, cold coffee, bursting bladders, uncleaned teeth, unanswered messages, just to name a few!

I find it hard not because I'm not enough but because I give so much. It's easy to forget what it feels like to move freely through the world with two free hands, a quiet mind and a nappyless bag.

I often wonder when we will drop the comparisons of each other and our own experiences, but Ive lost count of how many times I've heard 'how do you think I managed' which only adds to the pressure and need to keep giving.

I also wonder what the village was like, the pre colonialist, capitalist nuclear family village and wonder how we can get there again.

Some days I feel like I can conquer the universe and other days, I find myself on a cold kitchen floor soothing some BIG emotions, and I have to remember to take a breath of empathy for myself.

If you're struggling today, take a breath for you, and lean into those who lift you up, you are doing a fu***ng wonderful job.

~ BOOKINGS NOW OPEN ~

Join us for a weekend of connection and restoration in the incredibly wild, beautiful and untouched Hartland Peninsula in Devon.

Practice yoga with me in the light filled barn, learn how to make bread with Jon and be nourished to your eye balls by our resident chef and food educator, Theo of Hackney School of Food.

Take time out to watch the wild Atlantic Ocean along the coastal path, plunge into some wild swimming adventures and finish your evenings getting cosy around the big open fires or spot the shooting stars in the nights sky. BYOB is welcome.

This retreat is inspired by the natural rhythms of the seasons. As we meet just after the passing of Autumn equinox, you will have the opportunity to relinquish your outer energy to turn more inwards, moving slower and more mindfully through various practices of movement and rest.

You'll experience many of the rich threads that are woven into the weekend that celebrate and support a deep connection to our cyclical nature.

We will be staying at the beautifully, rustic eco farmhouse and cottage Little Barton that sits on top of a hill just minutes away from the famous south west costal path as well as a short walk from the beautiful beaches with excellent swimming spots. Both the farmhouse and cottage have been a family home for over 30 years and used to be run as a small holding. It is a home that remains sensitive to the land it has been birthed on and the nature it shares its space with, therefore you will be provided with eco toiletries to use throughout your stay.

Prices start from £450 with payment plans available.

Limited places so be sure to secure your spot!

Bonnie Grace arrived earth side 4 weeks ago. We are totally smitten with her calm and yin like energy. I feel forever, very very lucky to have two healthy babies in my arms.

As I share my news, I can't help but think about the mothers and babies who aren't safe, who have had their most basic needs stripped away, especially those in Palestine who are having to endure the most horrific trauma and brutality from the Israeli regime. It feels too heavy and painful to sometimes even witness, let alone experience it first hand.

I went to Palestine once, the kind, generous, tender and resilient collective heart there will forever guide my heart.

We are all Palestinian, fight for the forest not the individual tree 🇵🇸
