Join me for my 7th mini retreat morning, at the beautiful Roselidden Barn.

Here’s the plan:

We’ll start our morning with a nourishing cup of warm cacao. We’ll then ease into some gentle yoga to stretch your body, ground your energy and clear your mind. After a small pause, we’ll begin a TRE practice. TRE (or tension and trauma release exercises) is a gentle and holistic way to begin to unwind held patterns in the body by introducing a very natural and calming tremor response in the body. More on TRE on jessnorth.com or feel free to DM me.

Like a snow globe, after our exercises and shake to stir things up a little, we will have a long and guided savasana to settle our energy before ending, as always, with tea, some yummy treats and time to chit chat if you’d like to, or stay snuggled up in a blanket and be quiet. If it’s cooler, the log fire will be on and the floor will be heated. If it’s warm, we’ll have the windows open and the air circulating.

Why practice?

Returning to my mat and stretching my body feels like home. I remember that inside me there is a small grain of peacefulness. No matter how angry I was this morning, no matter the chaos of the living room, no matter all the jobs that haven’t been done. Just a stretch and a few deep breaths and I can access it. Not needing any thing or any one to find it. Just me, with my eyes closed, standing up straight and taking some deep breaths.

And then, when the next thing is irritating or upsetting, it can help to remember that feeling I practiced. Catching myself becomes a fraction easier and perhaps by pausing and taking a deep breath when I could have fired off and reacted without it, maybe that fleeting moment can help me keep my cool and hopefully that in turn benefits those in my space and those in their spaces. Because when you add up all these fleeting moments, it is after all, what makes a life.

That’s why I practice.

Dear Reader,

I’m writing to let you know I’m taking a break from yoga teaching for a while and setting up a new venture.

I’ve had a wonderful time! But for various reasons it feels right to persue a slightly different direction.

So, if you will, please join me on…

✨✨✨ ✨✨✨

Had a bit of a rubbish start to the day today and not much sleep. Wandering bleary eyed around Penzance at 10:30am, a lovely guy handed me a bunch of 💐 flowers. This is the note attached…

“By the time you read this I’ll be long gone. I’m nobody special, just someone who wanted to make you smile.
You are worth it and I hope you have an awesome day x”

I could have cried! Thank you very much - what a lovely gift to receive! I suspect in fact that you are somebody special.

Well 2023 has been a lot better than 2022 that fo sho!
Over the last 2 years, a lot has happened… I lost my Dad to cancer, sold my house, left my yoga business in Helston, went through breast cancer, moved into Keveral an intentional community, set up my business nr Looe, got pregnant, bought a house with Tom, had baby Jowan and moved to deepest darkest Kernow.
I think for 2024 I’m aiming for no big things to happen please!

Happy New Year! 🥂

25/12/2023

Happy Christmas!
For me this year, a time to feast, rest and be thankful. Wishing the same for you too.
Love Jess, Tom, Jowan & Louie from deepest darkest Kernow xx
