Little from last night’s Kirtan…

There’s something so special about singing together where it stops being just “us,” but that “me” doesn’t disappear either ~ more like sitting in a shared field, a mutual awareness, a really unique attunement between everyone there.

The resonance of the last three “oms,” especially—that was it. DID YOU FEEL THAT? I hope the feeling was mutual.

📖 Radical Wholeness, Philip Shepherd
“The whole is both One and Many—it is a dynamic realm of interplay in which everything dances with everything. To open your eyes to that dance is to see that it is moved by a love of being that yearns to be felt and known through each of us. Every being—every unique locus of awareness and memory and sensitivity—serves that uniquely by being uniquely attuned. The more deeply you come into a felt relationship with the mindful world around you, the more clearly it discovers itself through your eyes. And that reminds us that the etymological root from which our word ‘consciousness’ derives is the Latin verb conscire, which means ‘to be mutually aware.’”

Grateful for these deeply felt, shared experiences when we gather.

Next Kirtan & Social:

🌿 A New Beginning: Svarūpa Online Library Opens Today

Dear friends,

On the Spring Equinox, when day and night meet in balance, and the first signs of new growth begin to appear, I am very happy to share something that has been quietly taking shape behind the scenes.

Today I am opening the doors to my Svarūpa Online Library ~ a space where you can practise with me anytime from the comfort of your home.

Over the past months, I have been gathering and recording classes so that many of the practices we explore together in person can now also support you in your own rhythm, wherever you are.

Inside the online library, you will find sessions across six areas of practice {see the slides}

Some of these practices may already feel familiar if you have joined my classes before. Others might be new invitations to explore or commit to a longer exploration.
The choice is YOURS.

Launching this space on the Spring Equinox feels especially meaningful, a small beginning, planted with care, and trusted to grow over time 🌱

I hope this space supports you in returning/recognition - again and again - to your own Svarūpa, your true nature.

I hope you can join me there!

Last night’s Kirtan moved us a little differently (not captured)
So here is a small glimpse from before everyone arrived.

and I can’t get enough of this chant ~ Body of Love by 🎶 🤍

Thank you for capturing this, 💓

Kirtan
We began with sargam ~ gently warming the voice while sensing vibration in the body and listening for our own resonance.

Rather than singing toward something outside of ourselves, we explored sound as a felt sense experience.
Letting the mantras open awareness from within.

True heart medicine ~ especially with you all in it.
Thank You

Next session: 27th March 🌸

“Teaching is a gift from your students.
Sādhanā is the gift to your students.”

Over the past few years, I have quietly found myself supporting and working with yoga teachers ~ deepening their practice, refining their presence, and tending what lives beneath their teaching.

Now, I am simply bringing more clarity to this work and giving it a name.

Sādhanā Mentorship - a space for inner evolution, outer expression and embodied integration.

A space that sustains you and your practice, so what you offer naturally flows from depth.

GOOD FRIDAY EASTER SPECIAL
Delicious Flow
3rd April, 9-10.45 AM
Happy Om Yoga Studio

Delicious Flow is back. Yum!
This extended Easter morning practice is an invitation to begin the day slowly and spaciously. We will take our time ~ a generous 90 minutes to arrive, land in the body, and let ourselves be moved...

There is no rush here. We ease into practice through delicious, unhurried transitions, sensing how movement unfolds from within. An opportunity for connection, rhythm, and subtle shifts ~ allowing the body to move and flow at its own pace, meeting both vitality and quiet presence as the morning light settles around us.
And because it’s Delicious Flow…

A homemade treat and hot drink are included, your Good Friday morning lovingly sorted.

Please book early {link in my bio} for this one as few places have been booked already.

Can’t wait X

NEW CLASS ANNOUNCEMENT 📣

TUESDAYS are now officially our weekly group practice day at Happy Om Yoga Studio ✨

SOMA FLOW, 6-7.15 PM (new, new, new!)
&
REST & RESTORE, 7.30-8.45 PM (limited spaces ~ booking essential early!)

Let me introduce you to SOMA FLOW:

In the Vedic tradition, Soma is the sacred delight that awakens higher consciousness.
In Ta**ra, it is the inner nectar of bliss experienced when awareness meets the spiritual heart and energy moves freely.
In Ayurveda, Soma is the cooling, nourishing lunar principle that restores and replenishes vitality.
In a somatic sense, Soma is the lived, felt experience of being fully present in the body.

SOMA FLOW is a holistic, complete practice that integrates these teachings. It invites curiosity, exploration, and self-inquiry, awakening awareness and a deeply felt connection to the essence of these ancient traditions. Through somatic and subtle energy practices that are adaptable and spiritually rooted, we cultivate sensitivity and resilience in the whole body while reconnecting to inner guidance.

The intention is to experience our sadhana - our practice as a path of deeper connection to oneself and to the whole of life.
​​
These classes welcome newcomers and experienced practitioners alike - anyone who wishes to be moved in their practice, and to remain open to the unfolding processes of becoming and being, both on the mat and in life.

“The Soma of delight and deep nourishment flows best when we give up outer effort and enter into an effortless state of both inner and outer relaxation, which is to open our hearts to the grace and beneficence of the universe in which we live.”

How might we flow with the grace and delight of all existence?
​
Let’s explore 🙌🏽✨

In all honesty, this spring day retreat theme wasn’t my original plan.

After receiving many health forms and speaking with women experiencing deeply debilitating symptoms of perimenopause and menopause, it became clear that something needs to shift in how we perceive these stages of life.

Ayurveda & yoga has supported me in feeling more free, vibrant, and grounded than I did in my 20s and 30s (yes! I am in my 40s now ✨)

There is life beyond the symptom of fatigue, brain fog, disrupted sleep, emotional swings, and ongoing disharmony. There are natural, supportive ways to work with the body ~ ways that restore rhythm rather than override it.

This day retreat weaves together Ayurveda and yoga to help you understand what’s happening in your body and how to take aligned, practical action to support yourself with greater ease.

For all women ready to take health into their own hands and reconnect with their natural rhythm.

21st March, 9.30-3.30 PM
Happy Om
