Beautiful beautiful start to the day meeting at 5.30am to listen to the dawn chorus and immerse ourselves in the songs of the birds. I learned so much, thank you Emma-Kate Fletcher for such an inspirational start tp the day 🌳 🎶🪶

I’m feeling nostalgic and humbled by what has been a wonderful week of sharing yoga in the shed. We have dedicated our practice to the flowering of spring and taking the wisdom of blossom and integrating it into the teaching of yoga. Blossom teaches us to open up and expand, to gladly receive and be entirely present to our receptivity. To be present to the beauty of life as it is unfolding around us. The delicate nature of blossom also teaches us transcience, the art of gracefully letting go and to not grasp and cling on- (to physical things but also to concepts and worn out belief systems) The descending nature of the forward bend with a long supportive exhale is such an embodiment of this, ‘aparigraha’, this letting go. I had a good conversation with my sister about the art of learning to let go, it is a slow, ongoing process but the blossom is a great teacher, and yoga the means to embody the wisdom.

Just like the unfolding of the seasons the teaching keeps evolving and the principles land differently, they take root deeper into the heart. My teacher Mark says “A book of knowledge is a dead thing. It is the relationship between the teacher and student that brings the teaching to life.” I’m paraphrasing but it is definitely something along those lines.

I’m feeling so grateful for all of it, to be a teacher and to be a student in the great unfurling of life.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend 🌸

Yoga for the BlossOMing Heart 🌸

This week in the Yoga Shed we have been dedicating our practice to the apple tree blossom and how our yoga practice brings us back to the blossoming nature of the heart. One of the things I love most about this yoga practice is how it has helped me to deepen my relationship with the natural world. With AI taking over so much of our human experience I am so grateful to have this practice that helps me to remember I am a natural being, and this yoga feels like a practice and ritual to celebrate the natural world and give thanks for it. There is so much beauty around us and yet we tend to look down at a tiny screen into another dimension. So this week we are celebrating the beauty and intelligence that is life itself, natural intelligence, Mother Earth in her blossoming glory.

If you would like to come and join us for a gentle yoga practice tomorrow I have spaces available at 10am, it would be lovely to have you here. Don’t worry if you haven’t been to yoga before, everyone is welcome and no experience is required.

Happy Earth Day friends,

🌸 Em

Hi friends,

Happy Easter Weekend… I have been busy in the garden clearing space for new growth this summer and am sharing this lovely picture of the shed’s rose as a reminder of the good times to come…

I have a couple of yoga updates to share.. I have decided to swap the Tuesday 10am class to Thursday at 10am instead.. My hope is that it will open up a new weekly space for people who have wanted to come to my classes but have been unable to so far.. A few people have mentioned wanting to come and have said Thursday works for them so let’s give it a whirl, variety is the spice of life!

I also have an update on Thursday evening classes, my son Rory is performing in a dance show at school on the 23rd and the 30th so I have swapped those classes to Wednesday 22nd and 29th, again it might open up a little window for some new faces to pop in and try some yoga with the bees and the trees.. Come May the classes will be back to their regular slots, Tuesday 7.30pm, Thursday 10am, Thursday 7.30pm and Friday 11am. All the spaces are currently live and open for booking if you would like to grab your space.

I’ll be back the 14th April and look forward to seeing you then.

Wishing you all a very happy Easter

Calling all teachers / space holders / facilitators, I love teaching yoga more than anything, but the daytime numbers and unsteady patterns are a thing…

Please hit me with your advice, words of wisdom… 🙏

Thank you 🙏💕

Who wants to know a secret?

Well the secret is…. There is no secret! There is no path to enlightenment and there is no future awakened self waiting in the wings to be discovered! The human body is just as self actualised as a mushroom in a forest, and that is the fact of the matter… Anyone trying to convince you otherwise is after a quick buck or two…

When we practice yoga and come home to the peace that already exists in the body we realise we didn’t need to set out on a stormy sail around the world to find it…

My teacher says “Happiness arises when you relax into the reality of your natural condition. The secrets of the universe are already in you as you. Seeking anything implies that you don’t have it; every search for the idea of enlightenment leads you further away from it. The magnificance of life does not await you - it actually is you.

So if you need to remember the radiance that already exists in your magnificent bundle of molecules please feel free to come and find me at the Yoga Shed for Spring Yoga.. I have spaces available on Tuesday at 10am and Friday at 11am

Big love 🩷

Happy Spring Equinox friends 🌸

Thanks for another beautiful week of yoga 💞

When I think of the spine I think of an exquisite support system, a beautiful journey from earth to heaven, the Route 66 of the body.. I think of deep intelligence and engineering at it’s finest. I think of statues and towers, tall trees, pillars and totems… When I think of the spine I think of a compass, a grounding force between poles.

However, so often when we think about our own spine our instinct is to think immediately of pain, of aching and overwhelm.. So this week, our yoga will be for the spine, we will give the spine back to the essence of support from which it emerged, we will give the spine breath and space… We will give the spine our love.

If your spine is feeling the calling for love and support this week I have availability at 10am tomorrow and 11am on Friday.

If you have any questions please give me a shout, my classes are suitable for all levels so don’t worry if you haven’t been to a yoga class before you are more than welcome.
