What can you place to one side for a while?

This was a contemplation on our Autumnal Retreat this weekend….

Perhaps it’s a thought that’s taking up space in your mind?

Perhaps it’s a task that can wait so you can rest or so you can pay full attention to someone you love?

Maybe your phone so you can dream and gaze out of the window or the never ending list so you can unroll your mat?

I love this invitation because it feels kind and patient and unhurried ~ maybe ask yourself today “what can I place to one side for a while?” And see what happens.

Sometimes we don’t need lots of text and heaps of photos….

Bright blue skies, long yoga classes, homemade food made with so much LOVE.

LAOS 🇱🇦

A gorgeous snapshot here of my time in Laos earlier this year…

I am returning in January 2027 and this time Em Yoga is also hosting a fabulous 7 night yoga retreat!

Our venue, the Luang Prabang View Hotel is wonderful with everything you need to enjoy the beauty of this place.

Head to my website for more details ~ I hope you can join!

The JOY of gathering.

Gathering our energy back.

Gathering with each other.

Gathering as a yoga group and over dinner.

Gathering as women.

Allowing ourself to laugh, chat, discuss and enjoy moments of quiet.

These few seconds hold so much magic, precious memories and the essence of an Em Yoga Retreat 🧡

Yoga…the practice of going in. In towards the Self. The practice of postures, breath, mindfulness, discovery.

I truly realised this when I went on a retreat. Time to step away from my daily schedule, from work, from the phone and into a new environment - one that gave me time to think, to rest, to step into my mat and into a day full of new places, faces and space.

Every January I now head away for my own retreat and in 2027 you are invited! I loved visiting Laos so much earlier this year that I know it would be perfect as a retreat ~ quiet moments on the mat, poolside relaxation, reflective moments in temples, welcoming smiles (all the time!), blissful massages and so much more.

This retreat is now open for booking ~ choose from a range of rooms including a pool villa (oooooh) and every room is gorgeously comfortable for you on your retreat!

I hope you can come and experience this retreat with me 🙌

August has been, quite simply, BRILLIANT 🥳

I have had so many moments of kindness, joy and celebration ~ birthday parties with friends and family, celebratory 6am gym class, online gatherings, in person class celebrations, a wonderful retreat and much more!

The most amazing gifts, hugs and the kindest of words ~ all of this has brought me to a place of reflection and I am so grateful for it all.

And much more to come 🎉

Can there ever be too much celebration? 🥳 I don’t think so!

Em Yoga has celebrated all month ~ 15 brilliant years so far! We have raised £300 for charity, practiced together on zoom and this weekend gathered together for a brilliant Friday night flow!

These classes always generate a lot of laughter, steady movement and deep rest and are always a wonderful way to return home to our own self.

The generosity of everyone left me speechless ~ simply investing your time, energy and finances in what Em Yoga offers brings me to gratitude yet the wonderful cards, gifts and most of all your presence keeps bringing a smile to my face 😊

And it’s not over yet! There is still a little more time and a few things to do….stay tuned!

Closing with those wonderful words from Thich Nhat Hanh….

“Because you are alive, everything is possible” 💚
