Yoga and wellbeing teacher and blogger Be barefoot,playful and free.

We are all on our own journey, we all have our own stories and we all have adventures that lie ahead. Mentally, emotionally and physically we can learn something more about ourselves and the world around us everyday. yoga goes beyond the physical and through conscious practice of asana, pranayama and meditation we can learn to break through our perceived limitations and go beyond what we ever dreamed possible. Coming from a dance background I like to bring creativity, expression and freedom into my yoga classes. I love working with an eclectic mix of people, from all walks of life, ages and abilities so that I too can learn from them.

Did you know that dirt has microbiomes that can double up as anti depressants? An oncologist at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London called Mary O’Brian studied the effect of patients who were injected with Mycobacterium vaccae, a harmless bacteria found in the ground beneath our feet and she concludes that ‘ Her patients were happier, expressed more vitality, and better cognitive functioning’....... so I’m not totally bonkers when I do the gardening barefoot 😜😂...

🌕Full Super Hunters Moon tonight 🌕
I have a beautiful free Full moon yoga Nidra that you can use to settle into, ( link in profile or I can send you a direct link if you write 🌕 in the Comments )
It’s free to watch, but if you wanna ‘buy me a gingerbread latte’ ( which will actually go towards the children’s christmas pressies) then the link to that is also in my profile… ( not an obligation though)

Im considering a long overdue live online Yoga Nidra for the Winter Solstice too, so if you’re interested in that give me a ❄️ ( if these posts even get shown to anyone anymore 🤣

“…bright, effervescent light held secure within the silent calm darkness of night.
The light amplifying the dark…. The darkness amplifying the light…. Can you sense these qualities of both light and dark holding space together within yourself….. the possibilities of their partnership. The possibilities of spacious dark depth and radiant fullness

Be both the sky and moon at the same time, welcoming expansive possibility throughout your whole body. …”

with a picture that represents me solo parenting as I try to pull out all my stealthiest mother moves whilst simultaneously wanting to catch up on some sleep 🤪😂🙈 in all seriousness I owe so much to ballet. Not only did it bring me creative joy and expression in a physical form throughout my different stages of life, it also led me to a wonderful career in dance, introduced me to life long friends and trained my hyper mobile body in a way that kept my joints stable, my muscles strong and limber and my resilience steadfast. Something that supports me even now that I’ve retired as a dancers through motherhood, adventuring and wellness facilitating.

Happy All Hallows’ ’/ Samhain/All saints. This weekend marks an important celebration across countries, cultures, faiths and non faiths. Most notably in British Folklore we have Samhain/All Hallows. It marks the 3rd and final harvest of nuts and berries and a beautiful opportunity to remember and honour saints, Martyrs and loved ones who have paved the way before us. A chance to welcome in the healing darkness of Winter, settle the seeds of possibility within into the fertile sleepiness of the months ahead. The opportunity to rest, reflect and dream of the new beginnings to come in the following spring and summer of new birth and growth. . So as well as having spooky fun it’s a beautiful time to honour our ancestors, bring them into our hearts by remembering and sharing precious memories. ☺️

It’s been nearly 12 years since I left my professional dance career, ( with just a few little jobs thrown in here and there ) but dance lives in my heart forever ❤️
I never had any pics taken of me when I was working as a pro dancer, ( only a couple of obligatory headshots that I HATED having done ) I kept meaning to as having a portfolio was important for promoting yourself but I never booked them in 🤦🏼‍♀️ I never felt good enough, skinny enough, skilled enough, ready enough to make the financial investment. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ It was only through my need to be part of a community during lonely early motherhood that I took some pics of my yoga practice for online challenges... I saw, for the first time with my own eyes what I could not see before. A woman with equal amounts of strength and flexible softness, a woman who had worked hard and was actually quite good at what she’d trained and worked in... After having my 2nd baby ( Bodhi ) I was contacted to do a shoot. My drive to say yes was purely my boys, to have something to show them of what mummy once did when I was more than just a widow Twanky taxi driver 🙈🤪 A glimpse of me embracing one of the art forms that fuelled my passion and set my wings soaring to forge a successful career on stage before it was too late. A life that no longer existed as I sat buried under laundry loads, sleep deprived and lonely. 4 years since packing away my dancing shoes and 2 babies later this was one of the magical captures. A glimpse of what was still there, what was still possible even after massive shifts and changes physically, mentally and emotionally. and now my little girl gets to see what mummy could do too 🙏🏻☺️

There is something moon soaked
And dawn flavoured about her
Something kissed by the wild
And loved by lightning .
She, the goddess of storm hunting
And elves and moonlight magic
She, the queen of the forest,
Of womanhood more brutal than tragic
THE MOON GODDESS-
Did anyone catch the lunar eclipse last night. I didn’t set an alarm but I may as well of as Evelina woke me up at 5 so an another hour wouldn’t have made much difference 😂🤪🙈 Been letting go of some precious work ventures this week with a whole heap slog love and gratitude in my heart for what has been, and excitement for what it clears for the future 🙏🏻 ‘ letting go’ doesn’t have to be just for the ‘bad’ stuff, it can also be for the good seasons that have to end in order for the new season to start. are you releasing anything this full moon?
