Drop backs anyone? 😅
Some say - a long way down... I say - easy peasy 😁🙏

Just practice keeping the weight on your feet 🦶🏻 and use the legs 🦵🏻

Yoga is simple but powerful, and has everything that is needed for healing body mind and spirit
All in the practice

You need to go through the cathartic stage before you can reap the benefits.
You need to let go of your fabricated conditioned self to meet the person you were always meant to be

The obsession with healing trauma, regulating the nervous system, rebirthing, relaxing… the answer is already in the practice, and the results are inevitable, there’s no need to invent new formats, new styles, new classes with fancy names

Get on the mat, move, breathe and sweat
Devote the practice to your higher self
Practice, practice… all is coming!

Be Wild, be a Warrior ❤️

When did spirituality become another form of consumerism?

When did the sacred become a product?

When did our beautifully messy, wildly unpredictable human experience become something that constantly needs correcting?

Don’t get me wrong
I believe in healing
In the wisdom of the body
In the power of movement, breath, ritual, and deep emotional exploration

I’ve witnessed how profoundly transformative these practices can be

But I refuse to believe that healing means endlessly digging for something wrong with ourselves
That every uncomfortable emotion is a wound
That every difficult relationship is a karmic lesson
That every moment of sadness requires another ceremony, another therapist, another spiritual intervention

Sometimes you’re not blocked. You’re just fu***ng human

Sometimes you’re angry because something is unjust
Sometimes you’re exhausted because you’ve been giving too much
Sometimes you’re lost because the life you’ve built no longer fits the person you’re becoming
And sometimes you don’t need to transcend your emotions

You need to feel them

Without analysing them to death
Without trying to alchemise every tear into wisdom
Without turning every heartbreak into a spiritual achievement
We have become so obsessed with becoming our highest selves that we’ve forgotten how to embrace our beautifully imperfect, gloriously human selves

The wild ones
The angry ones
The sensual, contradictory, vulnerable, unapologetic ones

The parts of us that don’t fit into neat little boxes of spiritual enlightenment

Be wild, be a warrior

Yoga has been in my life for the last 30 years.

Although I came from a dance and acrobatics background, Yoga was a practice that really changed me and supported me on all levels and allowed me to grow, heal and find clarity in myself
It made me stronger, physically emotionally and spiritually, gave me self confidence and purpose.
I still teach aerial arts in my aerial studio in west london Aerialand - Aerial Arts & Production and perform as an aerialist, and produce shows. Yoga not only gave me the physical and mental fitness but also opened my mind to self expression and creative thinking. It taught me to be wild, go get what I want, to be a warrior.
And this is what I want to pass on to you:
when you are trying to achieve what your mind thinks you need you’ll find brick walls around you.
When you open up to your inner self and find who you really are, you have no choice but letting your real self rooooarr!!! 🐅 And the Universe will open up in front of you 🤩✨✨✨

Was just thinking of this today, and wanted to share it with you all.

The wellness industry has turned transformation into a product, selling us the illusion that we are always one workshop, one retreat, or one breakthrough away from finally being whole.

Like… Invent some inexistent superficial physical benefits of a yoga routine (which has no foundation in yoga) while discrediting some fundamental Yoga techniques and tag them as “harmful” in order to sell their “special” yoga routine 😅
In this case it was a pelvic floor sequence for women in peri / menopause.
Because apparently the mula bandha - and all yoga was developed by men for young men. And apparently its activation is harmful for the pelvic floor. Which is true if your idea of applying mula bandha is to squeeze the pelvic floor.
In this case you’re the one creating the problem, doing it wrong and teaching it wrong.

Mula Bandha should be subtle, not a maximal clench of the a**s or glutes. If you squeeze too hard, you can actually make the movement less fluid and interfere with breathing.

This bandha is taught as an upward lift, to initiate and direct the movement of kundalini shakti through the sushumna nadi and is often applied together with uddiyana and jalandhara bandha to lock it in manipura chakra, our vital energy or Prana storage.

And this rises another question: would women Pilates teachers and practitioners, athletes and gymnasts who need to apply pelvic floor and core activation develop a pelvic floor dysfunction?
I have been applying all my life, as a dancer, acrobat, aerialist and Ashtanga Yoga practitioner since
I have no problems with my pelvic floor, although in menopause and my practice is still as strong as when I was in my 20s

My only advice: be careful who you give your trust to. Give it to someone who has the experience and knowledge. Listen to your intuition. Do the work.
Be wild - be a warrior

Did you know that mushrooms are a great source of Vitamin D? If you want to keep the Summer sunshine going through the colder months, take your shrooms! 🍄🍄‍🟫🍄🍄‍🟫
I add a scoop of Seven mushroom powder into my morning smoothie! Tastes and looks like cocoa 😊😋
I add plain Yogurth, banana, oat milk, creatine powder, choline & inositol, whey powder, collagen and whizz it all into a powerful pre-training smoothie 🥤💪

Who said that your neighbours’s grass is always greener?
Stop looking at your neighbour grass, start watering your garden 😉

Fresh grapes juice to start the day 😃🍇
I went to practice at my friend’s studio yesterday and she gave me a lot of grapes she grows in her garden, organic, no GM, no nasty pesticides
Delicious, but they have lots of seeds in them, which make them difficult to enjoy.
So I am using my to extract the juice also from the seeds, which are rich in powerful antioxidants 💪 A shame to throw them away!
Thank you Tania 😘
