A few reflections during this time of year. A reminder to check in on loved ones as we all collectively navigate this being human.

23/12/2025

To all holders of healing spaces. Thank you.

I hear you. I see you. Thank you for doing all that you do and being who you are. Thank you for creating a safe and sacred space for those weary hearted that need to be heard and held. Amidst the uncertainties and traumas in this life and all that is piling up on a daily basis you still choose to be present for others. Thank you for holding it together at times for those who can’t. Thank you for sitting in the proverbial mud with each person that enters your space. Thank you for creating space for all of it, for celebrating the growth and process that you see unfolding in the person before you. Thank you for holding both the reality of this life and hope in hand.
Thank you for bearing witness to the pain, anguish and fear and allowing it to be truly felt, processed and integrated. Thank you for allowing voices that have been hidden for so long to resurface and be heard. Thank you for creating space for others to take the journey of rewriting their own narrative and not the narrative that they have been told about themselves.
Thank you for creating space for those to feel safe enough to come home your their truth, their true selves, their wholeness. Please take care of your nervous systems. The choice to heed to the call of what you are called to offer in this world is really really tough sometimes (most times).
Take decisions that will nurture and support your wellbeing. Step toward that which brings you joy, that which fulfils you. Allow yourself the time to disengage. Allow yourself the time to rest, to fall apart, in the falling apart, the cracking, the necessary healing continues to grow, strengthen and allows for the light to shine in. Allow yourselves the time to be messy.

Dear ones, you experience and live the traumas, the triggers, each being brings to you.
So the invitation amidst it all is to honour yourselves, your wellbeing so that you can continue to hold the light in the darkness , be a steady bridge for those who need support, be the boat that supports a vessel of hope and healing.

Thank you for being and for your wholehearted presence.

💚

Gathering our voices together in sacred song connects our shared humanity. Sometimes, there are no words to explain the inexplicable; sometimes, it’s the sharing in our voices together that dissolves the grief, the sadness, the sorrow, and pain. It breathes life into this very meaning of being human, allowing us to share beyond words, straight through to the heart and from the heart.

This offering is for everyone, regardless of what you’re carrying. For those moving through sadness, grief, loss, and anxiety, as well as those experiencing joy and celebration, joining together in this shared humanity reminds us that we can hold it all together – both, the grief and the joy.

20/06/2025

This offering is somewhat of an integration of the ancient and sacred practices I have immersed in for over a decade now. I bring this to you with a large dose of vulnerability and a grateful heart! I haven’t taught a class in a very long while. So, if you feel called to join me in my vulnerability, do join💚

Here is a little blurb….

The body as we know it, is more than muscle and bone.

It’s a sounding board for our life force energy—vibrating, feeling, breathing, and being.

Yogic anatomy teaches us about the five koshas—layers of being:

🌿 physical body
💨 Energetic body
🌀 Mental body
🌙 Inner Wisdom
☁️ Bliss - Spacious Awareness

In this class, we will explore these layers using gentle tools:

Mindful movement
Breath practices + Bhramari
Sounding , Mantra + vocal toning
Meditation
Short sound meditation & deep rest

Every part of you is invited. No experience necessary 💚

Through a sacred sound journey and the quiet depths of Yoga Nidra, we journey the 5 Koshas — the layers of our being — from the physical to the innermost sanctuary of silence and spacious awareness.

In yogic anatomy, the five Koshas are the layers of our being — like veils that surround the true self.

They are:

Annamaya – the physical body, made of food and earth

Pranamaya – the energy body, animated by breath and life force energy / prana

Manomaya – the mental body, home to thoughts and emotions

Vijnanamaya – the wisdom body, seat of intuition and inner knowing

Anandamaya – the body of deep peace, beyond all the layers, spacious awareness

Through practices like Yoga Nidra and sound healing, we gently move through these layers, returning to the still center within.

Let sound carry you. Let rest reveal you. 🌙🎶

A gentle invitation to gather, move, breathe, and sing—together.

Through simple chants and soulful songs, we’ll awaken the voice, soothe the nervous system, and nourish connection.

When we sing in community, we tone the vagus nerve, release stress, and return to our natural state of calm and joy.

No need to be a ‘singer’—your voice is welcome, just as it is. You are welcome, just as you are.

Come as you are🎶💚

PS. Drop a note here of your favourite sacred songs and chants if you’d like🎶
