SACRED PLAY// a London workshop with and 💫

This isn’t about working hard— it’s about allowing yourself to be present.

And presence begins in the body.

Before we can play, we must remember how to dwell in our ever unfolding moment.

To make space by wringing out the body.

To encourage curiosity and exploration in the mind.

And ultimately ring in a new era full of play!

SACRED PLAY
a late afternoon devoted to body-joy connection through movement and dance,
meditation and breath,
sensation and stillness.

Come ready to feel, energize, and return to your sweet self.

Dare to awaken her 🧚‍♀️

I usually encourage students to play around with closing their eyes and notice what movements feel like on the inside, without the distraction of vision.

Well. That was pretty tricky here.

Instead we opened our eyes and noticed all that is and all that we are.
Separate and the same.
Soft boundaries with blurred edges.
Nothing and everything.
Microscopic and expansive.
Here now and also everywhere all the time.

Kind of mind blowing. But also incredibly liberating.

we’ll be back. It would be worth it just to feel all that this view has the capacity to make us feel. 🌊

A yoga retreat isn’t just about doing loads of yoga. It’s about so much more than that.

It’s about tending to yourself.
It’s about learning to listen to your inner communication.
It’s about taking deep, intentional rest.
It’s about creating space to figure out what it is you really want from life.

It’s a reset.
It’s deep self care.
It’s an exploration of self.

A yoga class is a wonderful thing and we can get so much from it.

But a yoga retreat has the power to be truly transformational. A pause to rediscover, nurture and reset. A time to explore your limitless potential.

Come slow down with me.

Sunny Sundays ☀️

Sunday is the only day that I don’t have to wear yoga clothes so I try to enjoy the wardrobe freedom.
studio is to my go to 🧚‍♀️

This brand is amazing, not just because of the beautiful pieces that let your body BREATHE (v important!) but i’m also such a fan because it’s female owned (beautiful human ❤️), sustainable and ethically made about 2 miles from where I live.

Not only that, this top (and go find the dress on the website) is raising money for charity, researching into miscarriage and helping women navigate their journey ❤️

So go buy it! And enjoy it on your sunny Sundays looking and feeling divine ✨

I have always had a lot going on inside. It’s loud and busy and scatty in there. The traffic is INSANE.

I used to move hard. I had to be louder on the outside to drown out the inside. It was less overwhelming.

I moved like that for a long time. People complimented my lean body (read: overworked) and praised my motivation, dedication and commitment. It wasn’t any of those things. I was simply desperate for a bit of quiet.

I ignored my inner communication because moving hard seemed to be the only way my brain could find some peace. I ignored it for a long time until I couldn’t anymore. My body simply refused.

And when my body refused, I had to learn to be still.

This was some shift. Stillness. What a concept.

I always smile a little to myself in memory of that version of me, when people say ‘you’re so calm’ or ‘you have such a relaxing energy’. And my oldies and besties would chuckle too.

This woman is a work in progress. She always has been and always will be.

I can’t tell you how I feel about this practice because there aren’t words, it’s felt. But I can tell you it has changed me irreversibly for the better.

I have learnt, and am still learning, many things.

Self compassion, acceptance, rest, understanding, softness, allowance. The list is endless.

Of course, it’s an ebb and flow, it always is. But those things necessary to my fundamental well being and ability to function in this body, in this world, are there somewhere now, even if I have to dig a little deeper sometimes to find them.

And I’m so grateful that I can move my body - soft, hard or any way in between.

I’m so grateful that I can be still.

And I’m SO grateful that I learnt the wonder of feeling it ALL.

So next time you look at your yoga teacher and think they must be the most balanced, calm human in the world, take comfort. They’re just feeling their way through too.

I guarantee you, where they are now, is not where they’ve always been or where they’ll stay. Because we are all continuously unfolding, shifting, evolving. We are all a work in progress. ❤️
