Happy New Year everyone ✨
I hope you all had a magical break.
I’m easing back into socials a little more slowly than usual after a conscious phone detox over the holidays… and then the lurgy arrived on NYE but this afternoon, though, I finally feel like gently emerging with the intention of returning to a softer rhythm that I want to carry with me throughout the rest of winter.
This tiny setback felt like the reminder I needed not to rush straight back into everything, as I’ve done in the past. I’ve had to sit in the real discomfort of saying no, cancelling classes, and putting my health first while also listening to that familiar inner voice telling me I should be doing more.
Through my yoga practice, I’m learning to observe these thoughts rather than be consumed by them. It’s not perfect, but my dedication to practice continues to support me more than anything else. I notice the mind telling stories that aren’t true, and instead of reacting, I sit and I listen.
So my lesson so far for 2026 is this: to sit still more. To be okay with doing nothing. This is where my challenge lies, and therefore where I trust my deepest transformation will come not by avoiding discomfort, but by meeting it with presence.
January won’t bring big plans or resolutions for me. Instead, I’ll be resting, reflecting, and nesting into my new home… patiently waiting for nature’s New Year in spring 🌱
Who’s joining me in this gentle return? If you are then I have the perfect day designed just for you next week. Nurturing yoga, warm home-cooked food, and a beautifully insightful talk on nutrition to help you tune inwards, I have one space left on my Day Retreat next Sunday, 18th January. Join me and my sister for a day designed just for you. DM or follow the links on my new website which I definitely need to shout about more.
With love ###x
With love, always 🤍
