Many changes the body goes through, happen so subtly that we don’t tend to notice the many steps that got us to the point we are now, that can be said for being in an ideal or less ideal place.
•
Structural changes are no exception, little by little, we re-teach the body how to move as a system, as a complete unit, the way we’re designed to move, + balance + alignment is what follows.
•
This client has been working with me for a year, + I’m incredibly proud of the results we’ve achieved so far.
•
⬇️ She came to me with sciatic pain down the right side of her body, caused by compression of the nerves in the lower spine.
⬆️ Now no pain, comfort when travelling in the car or sitting for extended periods, + most importantly, a strong, fit, able body that sees her working a physical job, + enjoying physical activity on the weekends 🏔️💃🏼
•
This is the aim, + the result when you begin working from the foundation up 👌🏻

Posture is about so much more than how your body looks. While it certainly influences how we experience physical comfort or discomfort, it’s also deeply connected to how we feel + move through life.
•
The patterns your body holds feed back to your brain, shaping how you think, act, feel, + perceive the world around you.
•
Contrary to what many believe, only about 20% of the communication between your body + brain travels from the brain to the body — the remaining 80% travels from the body up. This means we can’t simply “think” our way into feeling different; we must instead signal safety + calm through the body itself.
•
Think of a time you felt nervous — you likely first noticed the butterflies in your stomach before recognising, “I’m nervous.” That’s your body leading the way.
•
Your posture plays a powerful role in this feedback loop. The way you hold your body today reflects the experiences, stresses, + stories you’ve lived so far. It also shapes how you continue to carry yourself through the world.
•
Bracing patterns — like a hunched upper back or forward-rounded shoulders — often communicate to the brain that things aren’t safe. When the body doesn’t feel safe, every part of life is influenced: how you think, what you feel, the choices you make, + even what you attract or allow into your world.
•
Shifting your structure, therefore, is not just about improving how you look — it’s about transforming how you live. When you create openness + alignment through the body, you create the space to step into the life you’re truly here to live.

✅ Are you living a CHECKLIST life? ✅
•
Do you ever feel like your days are a string of tasks to tick off? A life where the week is measured by how much you can achieve, + rest is only earned once the list is done? 🥵
•
This is a pattern I see often in the women I work with, + one I know intimately myself. Type A women often carry a belief that our worth is tied to how productive we are. That slowing down is indulgent. That rest is something you get after you’ve proved yourself through output. 🌀
•
But here’s the thing:
This isn’t about laziness. It’s not a lack of motivation.
It’s often a nervous system wired for urgency🏃‍♀️
•
If your identity is built around being efficient, capable, + productive, then slowing down can feel unsafe. Even nourishing rituals—like preparing beautiful food or taking a morning walk—become boxes to tick rather than spaces to land 🌀
•
There may be a quiet internal script whispering:
“You don’t deserve to enjoy this unless everything else is done.” 😴
•
But what if we flipped the script?🔄
What if nourishment, presence, + pleasure weren’t rewards—but foundations?
What if rest + joy didn’t have to be earned—but were your birthright? ✨
•
Your body will let you know when this pace becomes too much + the common signs of pushing past its cues can be pain, tension, digestive issues—even the holding of additional weight.
These are not failures—they’re messages. Invitations to tune in. To soften. To listen. 🫶🏻
•
With this, I invite you to notice:
Where might you be performing your wellness, rather than living it? Even the most beautiful rituals can be made into another “task”
Where could you pause the list, + land back in your body, just as you are + ask what it is that you’re really seeking in this moment, what is your body telling you? 💗
•
You don’t need to do more to be more.
You already are ♥️

Another trip around the sun always elicits some self-reflection, looking back on learnings + growth to continue to carry forward into the next year.
•
The first image was 7 years ago, second was 2 + the last yesterday. Looking back at these photos, I see more than just physical changes. I see different seasons of life, different mindsets, + different versions of myself. But above all, I remember the daily steps I took to create a different outcome, this is the work that very few others see. The daily commitment to myself.
•
Growth isn’t always linear, but every step has led me here. Stronger, more aligned, + more at home than ever before, because when we don’t feel 100% whether physically, mentally +/or emotionally, it’s all a calling, directing us somewhere different, somewhere more aligned.
•
A reminder that change isn’t just about appearance, it’s about how you feel, how you move, + how you show up for yourself. Here’s to continuing the journey.

Your posture impacts your ability to adapt to stress

When your body is aligned + balanced, it’s in a more resilient state, allowing your nervous system to better adapt to stress.

Stress isn’t about the event itself; it’s about how we respond. Two people can face the same challenge, but their individual reactions determine their stress levels. Now more than ever, we live in a heightened state of demand—so how well does your body handle it?

When your posture is balanced + efficient, your body can adapt to demands with more ease + return to baseline after the event has passed.

But when your body is imbalanced, it compensates. Imagine you’re walking in the park + suddenly need to run—would your body move efficiently enough to escape? The same goes for psychological stress (a busy schedule, juggling responsibilities, etc.). If your posture is compromised—rounded shoulders, forward head, excessive lower back curvature, tight hamstrings—it affects your body’s ability to cope + recover.

So, is your posture helping or hindering your ability to handle life’s demands?

✨ As WITHIN, So WITHOUT - Your Outer World is a Reflection of Your Inner State ✨
•
🌀Yesterday I started working with a new client who’s been struggling with skin issues since childhood, when we began delving into the depths of what’s been going on all these years + their current habits, they were amazed by all the facets of their life that has lead to the development of the skin issue in the first place.
•
🌿I began this work 7+ years ago to help bridge that gap, because how you feel internally- physically, mentally, + emotionally, shapes everything in your external world. Your body, energy, relationships, + the skin for example, often the last place to show this imbalance.
•
🪩 Everything outside of you is a mirror of what’s happening inside.
•
💡Symptoms like fatigue, pain, skin issues, + digestive discomfort aren’t just random—they’re signals from your body, telling you what needs attention. When you nourish yourself well, manage stress, + listen to your body’s cues, you start to feel more vibrant, + that radiates outward
•
💨 If you feel drained, scattered, or unfocused, look at what’s happening inside. Are you overcommitted? Running on stress? Ignoring your own needs? When you shift from depletion to restoring your energy through movement, nourishment, + mindset shifts, life begins to feel more effortless.
•
🌿Glowing skin, strong posture, + a vibrant presence come from within. When your gut is balanced, your nervous system is calm, and your body is well-supported, it shows externally. No skincare routine can compensate for internal imbalances.
•
⚖️The way you see yourself + regulate your emotions impacts how you show up in relationships. If you feel stressed, disconnected, or undervalued, it often reflects in your interactions. When you work on inner stability, self-worth, + emotional regulation, relationships naturally shift too.

💥 Your past self is your competition, your future self is your hero 🦸‍♀️

When you envision + align your actions today with your future self, you facilitate personal growth + transformation. By viewing your future self as a guide, you begin making decisions based on that desired outcome + identity.
•
This approach shifts your focus from waiting for change to actively embodying it. Transformation happens when you start showing up as the version of yourself you aspire to be.
•
Taking moments in your day to ask, “What does my future self need or what would they do in this situation?” can help you start shifting your habits + behaviors, bringing you closer to that vision of who you want to become.
•
I often ask my clients + members these kinds of reflective questions. For example, during a moment when they acted from their old patterns, we pause and acknowledge: “What would your future self have done differently?” This process creates awareness and opens the door for change.
•
Starting small is key. Check in with yourself and ask:
• “What habits + behaviors would my future self practice today to propel me closer to my goals?”
Then, act on one or two of those small steps.
•
By consistently practicing this, you begin stepping into the version of you who already lives the life you’re working toward. Transformation isn’t about waiting; it’s about becoming.

🌊 Always adjust your sails 🌊
•
In life, just like in sailing, the winds aren’t always in your favour. Plans may shift, challenges may arise, + unexpected circumstances can throw you off course. But success isn’t about having perfect conditions, it’s about your ability to adjust your sails + keep moving forward.
•
This means If you set in front of yourself a goal to achieve x weight loss by a certain length of time, double it, because life happens + you really need more time then you think.
•
Recognize that life, especially during the holiday season, is full of unexpected twists. Instead of resisting change, embrace it as an opportunity to grow + learn + also prove to yourself that you can move through the waves without being thrown ashore.
•
Adjusting your sails doesn’t mean giving up on your destination; it means finding a new path forward. Flexibility allows you to navigate obstacles while staying aligned with your goals + values.
•
Trust that you can handle whatever comes your way. You don’t need all the answers; you just need the courage to adjust + keep going.
•
The winds may change, but your destination remains. When you learn to adjust your sails, you discover that every shift in direction can still lead you forward.

⬆️⬇️ What standard are you setting for your life? ⬆️⬇️
•
The standards you set for your life shape how you experience it. They define what you allow, what you pursue, + how you show up for yourself. When you decide to raise your standards, you create the foundation for a life that aligns with your values, goals, + potential. You will only ever rise to the standards you set for yourself.
•
Standards are the expectations you hold for yourself + others. They influence your habits, relationships, health, + overall well-being. They act as boundaries, guiding what you accept + reject in your life.
•
When your standards are low, you’re more likely to settle for less than you deserve. High standards don’t mean perfection; they mean honouring what’s truly important to you + striving to live in alignment with those values.
•
If you were to look at your current situation, your health, relationships, work, would they reflect having high or low standards? Reflect on one area of your life where you feel you’ve been settling + ask yourself:

🎯 What does the next level look like for me in this area?
🎯 What habits or boundaries can I put in place to align with this vision?
🎯 What’s one small action you can take today to begin raising your standards?
•
The standards you set create the life you live. When you decide to elevate them, you elevate your life.
