It is said that the journey from head to heart is one of the biggest journeys we'll ever take in our life.

I know this to be true.

Living from my head vs living heart lead are polar opposite experiences.

The later, laden with conditioned ways of operating in the world inherited by generations, collectives & institutions in my lifetime/s, the former, formless, guided, intuitive, feeling based & whole.

It's taken years of inner work, truth & integrity to be witness to this polarity. This powerful vantage point I have strived endlessly to achieve.

I am by no means 'there', as there never is a there. Only here. I am here. And here feels good. It feels peaceful & expanded.

Yin Yoga is a way that supports this transition. It does so at your pace, with your mind, body & soul as one.

If you're feeling at all stressed, short of breath, in scarcity, experiencing looping thoughts & worry, it's time to come home to you. It's your job to create a place of safety within. No home, partner, job or friendship will replace this crucial inner quest.

You hold it all within.

All of life's answers.

All of her mysteries.

You are divine magic. ✨️

Everything is only ever conspiring to support you to remember this.

Every challenge
Every heartbreak
Every obstacle
Every single bump

How you choose to face that thing can invite you to rise, or keep you in it, repeating another cycle.

You hold the power that determines which way it goes.

The key is always to turn within.

To face yourself, and what has arisen.

Get honest
Get still
Get true

And the way will be revealed.

These are exciting times we're in right now. I'm fizzing quietly.

I'm revelling in my Winter, and quietly cultivating.

How's your inner relationship developing?

As shared, I will be returning to the mountains again next month. For mountains, snow, friends, heart expansion & safe spaces.

Here is our second offering.

Our last Yin & Cacao event at Yama Yoga was sold out. It was deeply nourishing and healing. Think warm Cacao, permission too pause, deep breaths.

Theta Healing was woven through the class, activating subtle remembers of safety.

This time we're expanding it to 3 hours to allow our winter selves the same deep cellular nourishment.

Please feel invited to join us.

Muscles don’t just get “tight.”

Your whole system does.

When you move in the same way all the time, forward, backward, maybe a side stretch here and there, your fascia starts to stiften.

Remember, "Use it or lose it?"

Yin Yoga invites back fluidity & space.

We don't only come to “stretch.”
We come to create space.
In the body, and in our minds, with our breath, to support our nervous system.

Yin gets in deep.

It invites a gentle softening to where you've been holding.

It shows you where you’re bracing, physically, emotionally, energetically.

This practice isn’t just passive.

You're awakening all that you are, and acknowledging all that is available. It is a gentle, yet powerful practice.

It’ll meet you exactly where you are… and then show you somewhere new if you're open.

Come create shapes on the floor and receive what is awaiting you.

We deeply need & crave connection.

Each time I facilitate a space. Whether Yin or Circle, people continue to sit and stay long after the space has 'closed'.

It is innate within us to gather, to be, to regulate our nervous systems together and feel safe.

This is one of the reasons I continue to show up for these spaces. It is beyond me. Witnessing people receive so much, is such an honor to be a part of.

It's a beautiful dance of co-creative forces. All that exists is the present moment and what wants to be.

Last Women's Circle - I think there was more silence & space of deep inner connection, than there was of anything else.

A rich honoring of what was held within by each individual & each other. After our inner meditation journey, I received no other guidance but to simply BE.

It's in these spaces SO MUCH is happening.

The rich interconnected tapestry, weaving her threads through all that is. I write that, and it feels right, even though my mind doesn't fully understand - and could never. It is that aaaaahhhhh feeling, the one we search a lifetime for, but cannot describe.

Each time is always unique & beautiful in it's own way, of course. Because different humans, different themes, and energies dance to orchestrate the richness of what wants to be and what is needed at the time.

I write this all to share, that I cannot wait to be a part of, and witness to, A Sacred Reset - A One Day Retreat at Te Whenua Retreat

We need more of these spaces to be ourselves. So that all that we are, can unfold so sweetly in the mystical magic. It's happening, and it is truly wonderful, AND we are just at the very beginning.

If you feel called to spend a day together, exploring inner themes, in co-creation with others, in the peaceful setting of the Gibbston Valley, with delicious food, and a divine sound journey to integrate your day - I would love for you to join myself, Jenny Lomas & Lena Rae.

It is with great excitement & joy, I introduce Sacred Reset : A One Day Retreat at Te Whenua, to you!

As I mentioned in my group, back in March when I visited the mountains, upon leaving, I knew I wanted to return quickly.

I felt the call to drop deeper into an exploration, after putting on a Yin Yoga & Cacao offering at Yama Yoga.

That's going to happen too, but stay tuned for that...

This offering is an immersion.

A whole day of self exploration, inquiry & healing.

Sacred Circle, nourishing food and sound alchemy - to support the transformation & transmutation of that which you're ready to move through.

Please feel welcome to join us.

There are limited space to keep the day intimate and connected.

I was thinking the other day about how in this area there are not so many activities or events that we get to go along to and just BE. To just hang out and BE.

We have places that we go to DO things: going to eat, go to the movies, play sport, gym, and so on. But gather...?

So this space, is an invitation for just that, to come and BE. And initially that might feel scary. It can feel confronting because our mind doesn’t understand what’s going to happen.

So acknowledging that it can feel like that in the beginning, but when you arrive and take those initial moments in the arrival mediation to ground, it’s like everything you know you were looking for, but didn’t know you needed sinks in. Something ancient within us awakens. And we take a sigh of relief.

Something within us lets go, our energies soften, which allows for greater connection, our yin essence to awaken, and our parasympathetic nervous system begins to unwind. We heal in all the ways through connection. Through our breath, through just being who we were born to be, without the need to do.

So if you feeling hesitation about joining Women's Circle, know that that is very normal and we all experience it, but once we arrive, we receive the very thing that we didn’t know we needed.

Our next Circle is tomorrow - Friday 23 May @ 7pm

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.

If you’ve ever thought:

“I’m too stiff for yoga”
“I can’t slow down”
“I need to do more to feel better”

Yin Yoga gently calls BS on all of that. 💁‍♀️

This isn’t about perfect poses or pushing yourself.
It’s about learning the art of letting go.
Of meeting yourself in the stillness.
With your breath,
Of giving your nervous system the deep exhale it’s been craving.

In this post, I’ve broken down what Yin Yoga really is in it's simple form, what it supports in your body and being, and why it might be exactly what you didn’t know you needed.

🧘‍♀️ Weekly Yin – every Wednesday

We're Going Deeper... 75 Minutes of Bliss Awaits 🧘‍♀️ - https://mailchi.mp/545651d3edc2/were-going-deeper-75-minutes-of-bliss-awaits

Ahhhhhh I got my water isonizer home yesterday 😌 I love that machine, it's crazy.

I've owned it now for about 7 years!

I appreciate it SO much.

Louise Hay used to have a meditation, where she lovingly took you through offering love & gratitude to the appliances around you. Your fridge, your stove and so on. I do this with my car too. I thank 'her' after every trip, for looking after me, for keeping me safe.

EVERYTHING holds an energy. Nothing is separate.

In Bali, they even have a day of ceremony where they make offerings for everything metal that supports them. They honor such things as cars, motorbikes and computers.

I love this. I love Bali.

Anyway, tangent... where was I going? First day of my bleed, so my brain is...🤯

Ah yes, my beloved water machine.

I have learnt so much about water over these 7 years, and I know, I've barely skimmed the surface.

My surface has pools (see what I did there?), of knowledge, that I know most haven't yet been introduced to. For as long as I remember, I've always be conscious of clean water, and tried my best to drink & source it.

Tap water is simply not great. And yet, it is what most have to hydrate their bodies on the daily.

The book > You're not sick, you're thirsty < speaks volumes to the elephant in the room, of how hydration is the backbone of health.

MOST ailments come from a chronically dehydrated bodies. How does one get chronically dehydrated? By drinking less than optimal water over one's life time.

When you don't know what's in your water, its source location & how it travels to you, well, how would you know how you're affected?

Start with learning where your water comes from & what is in it.

Find ways to remove chlorine & heavy metals.

Give your water movement. It needs life - in order to give us life.

Invest in high quality products that offer reductions or removal of the first point, and integrations of the second.

There are an abundance of products on the market now. It can overwhelming.

Start with what feels available to you & feels in alignment with your budget.

Remember we're talking health & your body here.

Consider investing prior to health conditions occurring, as opposed to paying doctors, practitioners down the track when you need tests, answers & more.

It is NEVER a bad idea to invest in your health.

"You don't need to 'DO' anything that is not in alignment with your souls desires and highest self.

That reality is dissolving.

What is leaving, is the reality you have created based on fear. Based on your 'shoulds', your programming and a matrix designed to keep you separated from love and who you innately are as a soul incarnate divine being.

Let go of the old that is crumbling. It is crumbing for a reason.

It cannot exist with the Gaia Matrix Grids that are now in place.

Allow your systems to update, upgrade and realign. Trust in this process divine soul of the light.

The truth of who you are is being revealed."
