My own yoga practice looks different these days.

And that is okay.

Early parenthood is full on. Postpartum recovery takes time and patience. I ended up with an emergency C-section, and as with any serious surgery, healing is a process.

Each month I am much stronger. I definitely feel my practices helped me during birth and after.

I've turned to my Yoga experience many times. From gentle belly breathing to settle myself after a night feed, to shoulder and neck stretches to release tension from feeding. More recently, doing Yoga with baby Isobel; I've been doing tummy time with her.

My four year old also has much more interest in yoga too now, and lately we've played with balances and humming bee breath.

But mostly, the impact of Yoga is in the unsung, quiet moments. The grace I give myself to meet myself where I am any given moment. To let myself feel what I need to feel. The ability to use my breath to bring me into the present moment. These are all lessons I learned on my mat.

Kindness. Self-compassion. Self-understanding.

What has Yoga taught you? x

What a weekend of community, charity and most importantly heart. I'm a little late posting, but we made over 1300 euro for at our studio fundraiser.

Thanks to everyone who supported and donated. Thanks to Tracey and Gary for offering beautiful sessions too.

Holding Palestine & Gaza in my heart, always 💚🖤❤️🍉

As I navigate life postpartum, in this uncertain world, I find myself living by the mantra, the only constant is change.

In my heart, I knew there must be something similar in Irish. There is, and it is even more beautiful:

Anáil na beatha an t-athrú.
Change is the breath of life.

Change is possible, transformation is possible, especially when we come together in community.
We are not powerless.
Change can happen.

Share with someone who needs this reminder.
I know I did.

So much love ###

Let me introduce Isobel Éada 💕

The new light in my life who arrived on none other than the Spring Equinox.

Our daughter, our Summer Solstice fairy girl, picked her sister's name because she said was going to be like a beautiful fairy too. And, she was right.

Her middle name Éada is in memory of my late mother Sinéad, who reinvented herself when she went to UCD in the late 1980s as Éada.

The Spring Equinox is imbued with significant spiritual meaning. It is a time for growth. A time of equal light and shadows. A time of healing, for opening to new beginnings.

I'm feeling it all. Home safe in my nest. Me and Isobel are doing well. There have been loves lost along the way, but their love lives on in new hearts alive with love, hope, and a little bit of wonder.

My heart is overflowing.

Love from our family to your this spring 🌼 🌱

✨Meet Tracey✨

Tracey O'Malley offers Tai Chi & Qigong classes at our studio in Ballyhaunis on Thursdays.

Tai chi is a type of martial art that originated in China while Qigong is a traditional Chinese mind-body practice. Both involve a series of slow, gentle movements and postures, combined with deep breathing and meditation.

While Tai Chi started as a form of self-defense, it has evolved into a popular exercise for health promotion and rehabilitation. Both practices are often described as "meditation in motion" because they focus on mindfulness and relaxation while moving.

The goal of Qigong is to cultivate and balance your body's energy, known as "qi" or "chi," to improve overall health and well-being.

Some of the many benefits of regular practice include:

* Improved balance and coordination
* Increased flexibility and muscle strength
* Reduced stress and anxiety
* Enhanced cardiovascular health
* Pain management

Tai chi & Qigong are generally considered safe for people of all ages and fitness levels.

Tracey has been practicing Tai Chi and Qigong for over a decade. She teaches Tai Chi on Thursdays at 7.30pm. Her new term begins tonight so there's still time to book in.

You can text Tracey for the details or contact her via messenger on Facebook at Tracey O'Malley

She was a very busy mum of 2 sons, who are now grown up and flown the nest. She loves animals and has a menagerie of pets at home.
