Spring has always been the most challenging of the seasons for me. That transition from the cosy, introspective winter energy to the firey, loud and all out summer scares the s**t out of me… and spring is exactly that stepping into the unknown, that invitation to bloom even if it’s not your time yet..
TCM and five element theory has helped me a lot with appreciating each season and its elements. Spring is about nourishing that part of yourself that takes risks and makes decisions, starting to feel confident enough so that you can own your choices whatever the outcome. Spring marks the beginning of a new cycle, the reminder that change is the only constant in nature and rebirth is possible. So, take a risk, trust your gut, make decisions and stop procrastinating.
With that in mind I am offering my 20:00 pm online class every Tuesday as of May, in an 1-hour format , in an effort to help me get back on track with my teaching postpartum. If you wish to support me in that journey and feel recalibrated in your body and mind, feel free to dm me for the GoogleMeet link and access to the recording of each class.
Some Spring inspo: music, dance and yoga celebrities practicing yoga + an ancient gymnast in a wheel pose + that vicious circle + waiting for that grace to pour down on us + Grace embodied aka my cat 🐈‍⬛.

After nine months of abstention from practicing really tightly closed shapes with my body, I now find myself yarning for a rounded plow practice every time I step on the mat. I am not sure if I miss the sudden burst of prana flooding the back body as it cracks open or the calling for introspection once the ears are covered with the knees and all external sounds seem so distant that time is paused for a few moments. This enclosed, spherical shape of a personal cocoon , fosters inward attention, an invitation to meditate and self-reflect. The ultimate yin asana and an ode to winter season. To practice:
Begin by lying on your back in a supine position. Placing a blanket or two under your shoulder & shoulder blades with your head hanging back laying on the floor, is highly recommended.
I personally like to begin with a happy baby pose with an emphasis on energetically pulling the knees towards the armpits and gently practicing lifting the tailbone as the legs reach for the torso and alternate hamstring flosses by playing the angle of the knees. This way you prepare the back body gently without forcing your way into the shape.
Ultimately you lift your legs over your head, aiming to bring your knees toward your armpits or ears and form a rounded, enclosed shape. Placing a block in an angle under your mid spine can act as a brake and help mitigate the effort.
The shins cover the ears gently and the palms hug the heels of the feet. Tops of the feet might be soft on the floor or if not accessible, feet flexed to reach the floor with your toes. Sandbags on the ankles are another prop you can use to aid the anchoring of the feet.
After a few breaths in this shape ( count your age in breaths maybe..) and once you feel the back body pliable and open, the knees may slide towards the ears right above the shoulders, reaching a higher point with the pelvis but always keep the dialogue flowing between the polarity of pelvis forward and feet back. Remember that breath animates the shape and is what ultimately transforms this into an experience. Focus on your breathing and the expansion and contraction of the torso and the back body. ⬇️ (more)

Feelings move in spirals.
They seem to revisit us in patterns, reminding us that life moves in cycles rather than straight lines.
All existence flows in rhythms: the seasons turning, the tides rising and falling, the breath expanding and releasing.
The spiral of emotions reflects this rhythm, reminding us that growth is not linear.
What once overwhelmed you may now teach you.
What once defined you may now inspire your release.
Emotions are not obstacles to be overcome.
They are currents to be honored and observed.
To resist them is to stagnate.
To flow with them is to transform.
The spiral teaches us that emotions are not fixed,
they rise, shift, and circle back, each time offering a new opportunity for understanding and healing.
What seems like an ending is always a turning, an evolution.
Each step through the spiral brings you closer to harmony with yourself, closer to the center of your being, where stillness resides.

P.S. You are your home

First-time motherhood is a profound journey of transformation. It is a radical change that can feel as overwhelming as it is beautiful. In the Dao, we are reminded that life is a flow, a dance of opposites in harmony—yin and yang, chaos and order, stillness and motion. Becoming a mother invites us to step into this flow with humility and trust, without a map in uncartographed territory. In the chaos of sleepless nights and the mystery of a newborn’s needs, there is a wisdom that emerges. Just as water finds its path through the rocks, one discover their way eventually.

The newborn dependent creature, is the greatest teacher. They remind you of the power of presence—the Dao of Now. Each cry, each giggle, each milestone is an invitation to let go of the past and future, to simply be. Balancing between the roles of both the nurturer and the student, surrendering to the unfolding path.

Radical change can feel like losing oneself, but in the Dao, to lose oneself is also to find oneself anew. The letting go of the old self is not a loss—it is a transformation. Like the Dao, motherhood is a paradox: in the vulnerability, you find strength; in the selflessness, a new self emerges.

Trust the flow. Trust that the same force that spins the galaxies and grows the trees moves through you. You are not alone on this journey—you are part of the great, timeless current of life. Like the Dao, motherhood is infinite, profound, and always in motion.

(A reminder for those long lonely nights and days…)

Finally the weather aligned with the season and we are spending our first weekend in cosy blankets here in Greece. A reminder of the most challenging season of all, the season of water 💦, the season of facing our demons, the yin of the yin, the time to learn how to adapt and regroup.
For me this will be the most overwhelming winter of my life so far…Lifechanging to say the least.
A reminder that Change and chaos are inevitable in this life. The best we can do is create our own order and stick with it. Join me for the last 4 practices of the year, to create some order in our physical bodies and hope for the same effect in our mental state.
Last practice will be December 10th, right before my 40th birthday and the leap into my last month of pregnancy.
Tuesdays @20:00 online + recording.
*our little library of recordings will hopefully make up for the gap until we regroup in a few months.
Thank you for following along
More inspiration to come 🙌🏻

After our annual intimate late summer retreat comes the official start of the weekly BodyA sessions. And right on time to get ready for fall 🍂. The time to reflect and let go of anything that has to go. The time to prepare ourselves in order to embrace death and silence. Yin is rising and we have some clearing out to do in order to let it flow freely. We will work on our backbends and our twists to support the lungs and the large intestine + create space for our breath.

Tuesdays @20:00 via google meets
Recordings available to practice on your own time.

September is finally here.
The month of new beginnings and re- establishing our day to day rituals.
Personal Rituals are what brings us closer to structure and discipline in a tender manner.
A way to find a purpose even in the most desperate of times and balance the chaos of life.
The power of daily rituals lies in their consistency and the intention behind them.
They can improve mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall well-being, providing a sense of control and grounding amidst the unpredictability of life.
What are your favorite daily rituals?
New season New beginnings

The irony of summer lays in its very core. The most extrovert of the seasons, ruled by fire + yang energy and yet the season when our bodies may feel the most lethargic they have ever felt throughout the year, especially if you are not living the “(Greek)summer” dream, but instead you are supposed to endure the extreme temperatures and sun exposure in the city. So ironically you may find yourself at the end of the day, in a state of depletion, longing for a cold shower and any other practice that could help move your body’s fluids and drain that lymph. That being said, make some time for your wellbeing during the day, in the morning + in the night, short but so essential. Try some yoga, some breathwork, go for a swim, try to keep yourself cool and avoid anything in excess.
•Our weekly practices will resume in September.
•T E N D E R E A R T H Retreat 20-22 September is sold out (dm me to join waitlist for any last minute opening)
Until then, stay safe and enjoy summer wherever 🌞

Often in our practice we talk about finding center.
Not so much a specific space or location, but rather the true sanctuary found within, where peace, comfort and solace reside regardless of external circumstances. That vague location in the realm of our minds is our treasure in this life. It takes a lifetime to approach but it is worth all the effort. After effort always comes grace and that grace is H O M E.

Leaping into spring and manifesting all things WOOD 🪵. Drawing inspiration from the vast knowledge of TCM spring is the season of wood element and wood is rigid when dry but softens when moist, a quality that reflects upon the relation between winter and spring. How did you tend to your waters during winter defines the health and flow of your wood qi during springtime. The holistic function of our organs mirrored into the cyclical nature of the seasons. Liver and Gallbladder are the dominant wood organs of Spring and the eyes are the portals to our liver. The fastest and simplest way to nourish your liver is to close your eyes and focus on your breath for a couple of minutes. Let’s reverse the damaging effects of our stressful realities with some heartwarming backbends, side body openers and vigorous pranayama, to stretch and purge our liver and gallbladder.

Mother Nature is the wisest teacher 🙏🏻🪵 🌱

If you have been in one of my classes you probably heard me ranting about a fit of a knee in an armpit, a heel in a palm, a knee in another knee and so on, or of course my favorite topic of all… the perfect hinge of your hips in a forward fold.
The truth is I am obsessed with forward folds, their introspective nature, the geometry 📐 it takes to make such a huge fold truly sustainable, how they invite us to find our roots and establish a solid ground, their therapeutic aspect for the kidneys and adrenals and the fact that they pair perfectly with a backbend to crack the whole posterior chain open.
It takes a great amount of effort to transform a fold into a perfect pleat, much like an origami.
Make (sometimes huge) effort to receive grace 💫
I am sure Mr would agree..
