What a truly beautiful evening at Rest & Receive in Lemon Tree Studio šŸ¤

A full room, familiar faces and new ones… and that shared exhale that happens when we finally give ourselves permission to slow down.

In some of the conversations after this evening’s practice, we touched on how easy it is to get caught in the go, go, go…
That feeling of needing to do more, be more, keep up.

And yet the real work is often here…
In the quiet.
In the stillness.
In allowing ourselves to simply be.

You could feel it in the room tonight
the settling, the softening, the shift.
Bodies unwinding, minds quietening, breath deepening.

Thank you, truly, for showing up for yourselves… and for being part of this space. I’m so grateful for each of you šŸ¤
Thank you so much so grateful for you 🄰
My next ā€˜Settling into Stillness’ will be in May. It’s already up on the Lemon Tree website, and I’ll be sharing details on my own website over the weekend/early next week.

If something stirred for you tonight…
If you’re curious about going a little deeper…
I offer one-to-one Reiki sessions, held gently and at your own pace.
I’m in every Friday in their beautiful therapy room, and I’m always happy to find a time that suits you, if one doesn’t align online for you šŸ¤
Once again , thank you šŸ™

ā€œThe hardest part of the practice… is often just getting to the mat.ā€ We say it all the time .

I was reminded of this again recently in conversation.

How easy it is to drift away from the very thing that supports us most.

Not always because we’re busy…
but because we don’t quite feel right in ourselves.

Maybe the body feels different.
A little heavier, a little tighter, a little less responsive than it once did.

And suddenly the mind begins to tell stories…
ā€œI won’t be able to move the way I used to.ā€
ā€œI’ll be stiff.ā€
ā€œI’ll be behind.ā€

So we pause.
We put it off.
We step away.

And sometimes… that’s okay too.

There are times we need space.
Times we need rest.
Times where stepping back is part of the process.

But often, what begins as a pause quietly becomes a disconnection.

And we forget what the practice was giving us in the first place.

Because yoga was never about how the shape looks.

It’s about what the practice offers the body.

How it supports us.
How it creates space.
How it invites us to feel… to soften… to reconnect… to listen.

We don’t make the body fit the pose.
We meet the body where it is, and allow the pose to serve that.

And this is why it matters.

Not as something we have to do.
But as something we give to ourselves.

A space that is ours.
A moment that is non-negotiable.
A return point, again and again, when life pulls us in different directions.

Because the truth is…
we rarely regret showing up.

We might arrive tired, distracted, resistant even,
but we leave a little lighter.
A little clearer.
A little more ourselves.

And with so many ways to practice now
whether it’s vinyasa, hatha, yin, restorative, breathwork, stillness…

The invitation is simple:

Take away the pressure.
Take away the expectation.
Take away the need for it to look a certain way.

And just begin.

Even if that beginning is quiet.
Even if it’s slow.
Even if it’s simply sitting, breathing, being.

Your body will thank you.
Your mind will thank you.
Your whole system feels it.

Every time.

Just come back.

Gently.
As you are.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day ā˜˜ļø

A beautiful bright morning here,the sun is shining and I’m heading into a full, warm room for hot yoga. I can’t wait.šŸ˜‰

Wishing you all a really lovely day, wherever you are šŸ’›

As we move through the week, here’s where you can find me…

Wednesday morning we begin with Wake Up Flow in at 10:15am.
A gentle, energising class to open the body, connect to the breath, and ease into your day feeling a little more spacious and grounded.
You can book directly through the Yoga Lounge.

On Wednesday evening, our Midweek Reset (Yin) in …
your pause, your exhale.
We’ll focus on the whole back line of the body, moving slowly and settling into longer holds to help release tension and unwind from the inside out. Finding that stillness šŸ™

Thursday evening brings Flow & Restore at 7:15pm also one of my favourite classes of the week.
We’ll move through a steady, mindful flow to build warmth and connection, before gently winding things down.
A long, spacious Savasana to finish, with optional Reiki if you feel called to receive.

And on Friday…
I’ll be offering Reiki throughout the day in their new therapy room.
These are quiet, one-to-one sessions,a space to slow down, reset, and come back into balance.

Then Friday evening, our Rest & Receive,a beautiful restorative yoga and Reiki practice in
A space to be fully supported, to soften, and to deeply rest.
There are just a couple of places left for this one.

All details are on my website.

Have a beautiful day… and I hope to see you somewhere on the mat this week šŸ¤

15/03/2026

Mother’s Day often brings reflection on care , the ways we offer it to others, and the ways we sometimes forget to offer it to ourselves.

It reminded me again why Reiki has become such an important part of my life.

Reiki, for me, is like the long exhale we didn’t realise we were holding.

When I look back at the role Reiki has played in my own life, it feels very natural that I was drawn to train in it and to continue deepening my practice over the years.

Reiki has offered me something of a buffer a quiet space that allows me to pause, reflect, and step back from the constant movement of life.
It helps me soften, let go of things I may not even realise I’m holding onto, and return again to a steadier place within myself.

That gentle pause can be incredibly powerful.

Most people experience Reiki as deeply calming.
The nervous system begins to settle, the body softens, and many so many clients describe feeling more grounded, balanced, and clear afterwards.

Many people come to Reiki when life feels overwhelming.

šŸ’«Sleep may be off.
šŸ’«The nervous system can feel wired.
šŸ’«There may be anxiety, grief, emotional overload, or simply a sense of feeling disconnected.

Reiki offers a pause.✨

A moment to notice.
To feel.
To breathe.

But Reiki isn’t only there for the harder moments.
It can also be a beautiful way to care for ourselves when life is moving well , a way of maintaining balance, creating space, and supporting the nervous system before we reach the point of overwhelm.

Sometimes it’s simply giving ourselves permission to lie down, rest, and allow the body and mind a chance to settle and catch up with each other.

If this resonates with you, or if your system is simply asking for a little space to pause and reset, you’re very welcome.

I’ll be offering Reiki sessions on Fridays, with a small number of appointments available each week.

Happy International Women’s Day ✨
Today we honour the women who shape our lives in quiet and powerful ways.

To the mothers, daughters, sisters, grandmothers, aunts, nieces and friends…to the women who nurture, support, guide and inspire.

To the ones who hold families together, lift others when they are tired, and continue to show up with strength, kindness and heart.

May today be a moment to celebrate the beauty, resilience and wisdom that lives in every woman.

And may we also remember to offer that same care and compassion to ourselves.

With gratitude for all the incredible women in our lives šŸ’›

04/03/2026

Reiki isn’t just for the hard days.
It’s not only something we reach for when we’re overwhelmed, depleted, or going through something heavy.

Reiki is there for the good days too.
For the steady days.
For the in-between days when nothing is ā€œwrong,ā€ but something in you wants a little more ease, clarity, or connection.

At its heart, Reiki is about supporting the body’s natural ability to settle, regulate, and restore. It works gently with your energy system to encourage relaxation, soften tension, and create a sense of balance — physically, emotionally, and energetically.

I always come back to this:
healing doesn’t mean fixing.
It can simply mean creating space. Space to breathe more fully, to feel more at home in yourself, to listen in a little more closely.

Reiki can be part of your wider wellness rhythm ,something you receive not because you’re broken, but because you’re human.

If you’ve experienced Reiki with me before, you’ll know how this work unfolds and how individual each session can be.

From March 20th, I’ll be offering Reiki sessions from the new therapy room located beside Yoga Next Door.

Sessions can be booked through my website, or you’re always welcome to send me a message directly. And if the available times don’t quite suit, just reach out we’ll find something that works.

24/02/2026

The Yin practice returns at this Wednesday at 7:15pm.

If you’ve been feeling a little tired, frazzled, or overwhelmed or you’re simply craving a step away from the outside noise and a chance to go a little more inward this midweek practice offers exactly that. An opportunity to take a beat, slow things down, and notice how the body is really feeling.

When life feels busy, loud, or demanding, the nervous system rarely gets a chance to land. Our midweek Yin practice offers a pause a space to slow down, step away from external stimulation, and gently turn inward.

There’s no pushing, no striving just time, support, and permission to let go.

This week we’ll place particular focus on the hips, where tension and emotional residue often linger. Through stillness, gravity, and breath, the body receives a clear message: you’re safe to soften.

Perfect if you’re feeling tight, heavy, or disconnected, or longing to feel more rooted, steady, and at ease again. Many people notice it doesn’t just end on the mat either ,it often leads to the best night’s sleep of the week!

Our Wednesday reset. A chance to land and deeply rest.

You can book through me or through the studio.
I also have a March promotion starting next week across all classes if you’d like to commit to your practice for the month details are on the website.

If you’re coming along this Wednesday the final class of February let me know and I’ll book you in, or you can book directly through the studio.

Have a beautiful, beautiful Tuesday šŸ¤

Feeling very grateful after a beautiful weekend of Reiki ✨
Thank you to everyone who came for sessions on Friday and Saturday ,it was such a pleasure to hold space for you. After being away in early January, it feels really good to be easing back into my regular rhythm again and reconnecting with familiar faces.

I’ll have Reiki availability from the 20th of February, with some openings on Mondays, Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays, and the occasional Sunday.
Rather than booking through the website, just contact me directly and we’ll find a time that works best for you.

Sessions are available in person in Artane and Raheny.
Reiki is also available online if getting to me doesn’t suit, or I can come to you where appropriate.

Reiki offers a gentle yet effective way to support deeper rest and sleep, help regulate the nervous system, and allow the body to recalibrate ,especially when life has been busy or demanding. If you’re thinking of booking in, feel free to reach out, as spaces do tend to fill quickly.

I’ll also be sharing dates in February for Reiki Level 1 & 2 training later this year.
I’ve been a little behind with admin while catching up on a few things in the background, but those details are coming very soon.

As for the mat we’re well and truly back at it!
• Wednesday morning yoga at at 10:15am
• The Yin Practice is back this Wednesday evening (March promotion coming) — and I’m so grateful, as these classes have been very busy
• Find Your Community returns on Thursday with me

I’ll also be offering a special March promotion for our Find Your Community yogis.
If you’re a class pass holder, don’t worry — this won’t affect your pass. These promotions are for the month of March only.

I’ll be sharing full details for both Yin and Find Your Community tomorrow.

Wishing you a really gentle Sunday, and I’ll see you all soon šŸ¤
Have a beautiful day šŸ¤šŸ™
