Have you ever felt the weight of isolation?

This week on Substack, I’m talking about loneliness, pain but also gratitude and the power of community; and how grateful I am for mine. 💛

Learning to slow down is an art: one that doesn’t come easily to me, but right now it’s exactly what my body needs. 💛 I know it.
My wrist operation lasted 3 hours, and now I need deep rest so my broken bones and cut tissues can repair, and so my nervous system can return to balance.

I need rest to heal.
Sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is exactly that, and let the body do its brilliant work.
Here’s to recovery, patience, and trusting the process. 🫶✨

🐾 Practicing the Pepi Melt

Every time I watch this clip, I can’t help but smile.
Pepi doesn’t just rest: he melts.
His whole body says:
“I’m safe. I can let go.”
Maybe that’s the lesson:
to stop trying to relax
and simply allow it.
To get heavy, soft, and supported,
like gravity’s got you. 🌍💛

Trail running: 2 – Me: 0 😅
Right wrist broken, left knee stitched (6 of them!), but I’m fine and waiting for the surgery date. No pain, just pride slightly bruised.

What I’ve learned:
➡️ Road running is underrated
➡️ Hills are meant to be looked at, not run up
➡️ Maybe it’s time to take up swimming! 🏊‍♀️

Une respiration pour retrouver le calme ☺️

Quand le besoin de tranquillité se fait sentir, que ce soit le soir avant de dormir ou simplement au milieu d’une journée agitée, essayez cet exercice tout simple.

👉 Envie d’un petit défi mental pour lâcher prise ?
Commencez à 10 et comptez à rebours à chaque respiration : 10, 9, 8… Le calme vous trouvera bien avant d’arriver à zéro.

Cette respiration apaise le corps, ralentit le mental, et éloigne les ruminations.
Essayez… et laissez simplement votre souffle vous apaiser 🌙

✨ Bonus : J’offre une séance de breathwork gratuite de 30 minutes avec le 15 janvier. Rejoignez-moi!

Received the sweetest message from one of my students this morning 💛
My heart honestly melted. Knowing that what I do can make someone feel that way… it’s the best feeling in the world. Grateful beyond words for moments like these. 🥹✨

I was thinking today about the Tibetan Rites, those ancient practices said to bring energy and youth.

It made me realise how much we, in the West, have always chased the idea of staying young forever.

But is it really youth we’re craving or feeling alive and full of vitality? For me, yoga helps me reconnect with that.
When I move & breathe, I can feel that spark.

Ageing doesn’t have to mean decline. It can mean reconnecting with our own vitality.

Studies show that regular gratitude practice can reduce stress, improve sleep, and even strengthen the immune system. It rewires the brain to notice the good, shifting our focus from what’s missing to what’s already here.

I decided to start each day with this simple practice: lifting the arms with an inhale, and with an exhale, bringing the hands to prayer position in front of the heart, and saying a quiet thank you. So many things to be thankful about…

Thank you for this breath and for this body that carries me.

Thank you for this new day; for the lessons, the love, and the stillness.

Thank you for the beauty in small moments.

This isn’t just soothing, it’s transformative, both emotionally and physically.

30 Minutes That Change Your Day 🧘‍♀️

Before the emails, meetings, and daily chaos begin, give yourself just 30 minutes of yoga or breathwork…

✨ Why it’s worth it:
• Stretch out stiffness from sleep and wake your body gently
• Strengthen your muscles and posture for the day ahead
• Focus your mind instead of getting caught into morning rush
• Start work feeling grounded, not frazzled

Move. Breathe. Flow. Then watch how the rest of your day feels lighter. 🌿

🧘‍♀️ Join me on Zoom — Monday to Friday — for a 30-minute morning yoga session!
Let’s start our days strong, calm, and connected.
