My intention for 2026 has been inspired by a book brought me, 'The Art of Joy' by . Something I already know is that finding joy doesn’t always look like big moments or picture-perfect days. Sometimes, most of the time, it’s quiet. Subtle. Almost easy to miss.

It’s the first sip of a warm drink ~
Bare feet on the earth ~
Sunlight dancing on the wall ~
Clean sheets ~
A deep breath that lands a little softer than the last ~

Joy is not these rushed milestones that social pressures lead us to think it is, but in the quiet in-between. These small moments don’t ask for more effort - just presence.

And when we begin to notice them, they slowly weave a sense of steadiness, gratitude & calm through our days.

Joy doesn’t have to be chased.
Often, it’s already here - waiting to be felt in the simplest of places.

Cheers to a year of small joys for us all X

There are so many moments in the last 365 days that I've missed her ~ in the magnificent & the mundane, in the celebrations & the chaos, in the moments I want to share something funny or something I'm proud of. I've missed her amongst it all.

I've come to learn I'm never just grieving the moment Terri died, but every moments I wish she was here for. One year on & the milestones hit hard. But if I'm honest, the ache lives in everyday. When I share a hard or heavy moment people ask me if I'm ok. And I appreciate that deeply, but what I invite you to do is ask me about her. Let me talk about her. Remembering who she was is one of my favorite things - even when it hurts, because the ache is just another shape of love.

I think there is so much to learn about life from loss & we do that by being vulnerable & brave. Lately, I've been reminding myself that love came first.

In the magnificent & the mundane, in the celebrations & the chaos, love came first.

"You do not move on after loss, but you move with.
You must shake hands with grief,
Welcome her in, for she lives with you now.
Pull the chair at the table & offer her comfort.
She is not the monster you first thought her to be.
She is love.
And she will with you now, stay with you now, peacefully.
If you let her.
And on the days when your anger is high,
Remember why she came,
Remember who she represents.
Remember.
Grief came to you my friend, because love came first.
Love came first."

As the year begins to soften & draw to a close, I’ll be placing my final orders for supplements & custom herbal blends for the year. If you’re needing a refill, ongoing support, or would love to feel resourced through the festive period & into summer, please reach out soon so I can include you in this final round.

This year has been a tender & meaningful one for me. It’s been a season of recalibration, listening closely to my own body & nervous system, and slowly finding my way back into work in a way that feels sustainable & aligned. Returning softly - with fewer hours, more intention & deeper presence - has been such a gift, & one I don’t take lightly.

I want to extend my deepest thanks to every client & student who has supported me during this time. Your patience, trust & willingness to meet me where I am has meant more than I can express. Whether you’ve worked with me one-on-one, practised on the mat, ordered herbs, or simply stayed connected - thank you.

As I look ahead to next year, I feel quietly excited. With the opening of my own boutique studio, there is space opening for deeper work together, continued care for the nervous system & offerings that feel grounded, nourishing & sustainable for all of us. I’m really looking forward to what’s to come.

Thank you for being part of this community & for walking alongside me this year.

With so much gratitude,
Nik 🌸

November has been a beautiful blur of grounding & energy ~ salty beach swims, long nourishing yoga practices, steady progress on the studio build & soul-filling moments with friends ✨

Each photo in this carousel holds a little piece of what this month has been teaching me: to keep showing up for myself, to anchor into the things that bring joy & to stay connected to the people & practices that make life feel rich + balanced.

Here’s to carrying the energy of November forward ~ more presence, more purpose, more moments that feel like a deep exhale & more strawberries, please 🍓😍

Yoga meets you exactly where you are ~ in every chapter, every season, every version of yourself.

Whether you’re moving through motherhood, rebuilding your strength, navigating stress, or simply learning to slow down, yoga offers a place to come home to. It doesn’t ask you to be flexible, calm, or perfect. It simply meets you as you are and supports you from there.

On the days you feel strong, it expands you.
On the days you feel tender, it holds you.
And on the days where just showing up feels like enough, it reminds you that you are enough.

No matter what life looks like right now, there is space for you on the mat. A place to breathe, reconnect, soften, and rebuild from the inside out.

Yoga isn’t just a practice ~ it’s a companion through every stage of your becoming.
And honestly, be kind. Because you never know what might be happening on someone else’s mat.

As the year begins to wind down, it’s easy to slip into the rush - the lists, the gatherings, the everything-all-at-once energy of the season.

But this final stretch is also a beautiful invitation to slow down, to steady your rhythm & to return to small, nourishing habits that help you feel grounded + well.

The foundations of our health do not have to be complicated or overwhelming to be beneficial. Here are 3 simple things you can bring into these last weeks of the year for a calmer, happier you:

✨ 1. Begin your day with presence
Before reaching for your phone or to-do list, take a slow breath. Stretch, sip water, or simply notice how you feel. It sets the tone for the whole day.

🌿 2. Eat with awareness
Let meals be moments of pause. Choose colourful, whole foods & allow yourself to actually taste & enjoy them. Digestion begins long before the first bite.

💛 3. Create small moments of rest
You don’t need hours - even five quiet minutes in nature, or one slow walk without your phone, can regulate your nervous system & refill your cup.

Your health & wellbeing don’t have to wait for January.

Begin now, gently.

If you’re ready to care for your body in a more intentional, holistic way - I’d love to support you. Send me a DM or visit the link in my bio to book your next session 🌸
