My poem: Room to Breathe ✨

I wrote this after a day of watching people walk past me and not returning my hello and smile 🥺 and seeing so many people rush past in their cars, getting angry at anything that slowed them down.

There are so many beautiful parts of life but we’re all so busy and in such a rush, that we never get to notice them and that feels so sad 😔

We are always saying that time goes by so fast, and maybe it’s rushing by because we are rushing.

‘Life was never meant to be this much, it seems we’re living in an endless rush. No time to stop and share a smile, nor time to stop and stay a while.’ 💖

I hope you like my poem 🙏🏼📝
Lots of love and smiles 🙃

How much energy do we spend worrying about things we can’t actually control? 🤍

We want things to happen in a certain way, at a certain time…

In yoga philosophy, Aparigraha is about learning to let go, while Ahimsa reminds us to be kind to ourselves.

Sometimes we just need to take a breath, trust that things will unfold in their own time and focus on what we can control, rather than stressing about what we can’t. 🌿

Your monthly reminder of our little abundance ritual is here 💕🌬️✨

It’s here 🌬️ Cinnamon day!! 🌬️🪄✨

Happy first of the month and cinnamon day to all who celebrate and cast their spells of abundance 🪄✨

Blow cinnamon from the palm of your hand through your front door and into your house saying the words:

“First of the month, cinnamon I blow, a spell of abundance to let money flow” 🌬️✨✨✨✨

When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at begin to change 💕

I think this is something we learn so much through yoga. Some days we come to the mat feeling strong, other days everything feels a little harder. But when we stop judging where we are and start meeting ourselves where we’re at, everything can begin to shift.

And sometimes, that shift in perspective is where the real growth happens 🌿

Sinking into Caterpillar Yin with a bridged bolster table is a beautiful way to explore a longer-held forward fold ✨🥰

I love combining Yin with elements of restorative yoga, using props to support the body whilst gently stretching ✨

If you experience tight hamstrings or tension in your lower back, this prop variation can help you find a more comfortable position to soften into the stretch.

By bridging a bolster over two blocks, I created a raised support for my upper body, allowing my legs to slide underneath. This helped reduce the intensity of the fold and minimise pressure around my hip joints, particularly important for me after hip surgery 💕

✨ The benefits:

🌿 Gently lengthens the back of the body, including the hamstrings

🌿 Supports a longer-held forward fold without forcing your range of motion

🌿 Reduces the muscular effort needed to hold the pose, making it easier to relax

🌿 Encourages slow, steady breathing and may help settle feelings of stress

🌀 The energetic perspective: In traditional Yin Yoga, Caterpillar is primarily associated with the Urinary Bladder meridian, with some approaches also including the Kidney meridian. These pathways form part of the energy system described in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

When you find a comfortable position, allow your breath to slow and give yourself permission to be still. That’s where the magic happens ✨

Sharing my poem, ‘The Controlled Flame’🔥 which I read out in classes last week with the theme of Tapas, our internal fire and discipline ✨

When motivation says stay home, Tapas reminds us why we wanted to show up in the first place 🔥

In yoga philosophy, Tapas means heat or fire. It’s one of the Niyamas and represents the inner discipline that helps us change old habits and grow.

Motivation is lovely when it’s there, but as we all know, it comes and goes. And as the days get colder and darker, it can be even harder to find. Sometimes, we need that little bit of discipline to get ourselves to our yoga practice, even when the sofa feels far more appealing!

But there’s a balance. Tapas is about transformation, not self-destruction 💕

Sometimes the practice is showing up and finding that inner fire. Other times, it’s recognising when we need to soften, slow down and rest. Both are part of looking after ourselves both on and off the mat ✨

What if a little more support could help you soften into a deeper hip stretch? 🌸

✨ Why use a bolster?

Place a bolster beneath your pelvis. As one knee draws towards your chest, the opposite leg lengthens away. This gently explores hip extension and creates a stretch through the front of the hip.

Without support, we might explore this area through a deeper backbend, which requires more active effort to hold. That can make it harder to fully relax the muscles we’re trying to stretch.

The bolster supports the pelvis, helping you explore hip extension with less effort.

🌿 What does it stretch?

One of the muscles being stretched on the lengthened side is the psoas, which connects the lumbar spine to the femur (thigh bone).

The psoas helps lift the thigh and move the hip. Prolonged sitting, driving and desk work can leave some people feeling tight or restricted through the front of the hips.

Exploring hip extension may help support hip mobility. For some people, including me 😅, restrictions around the hips can also be associated with lower back discomfort.

💕 Why I love it

This has become one of my favourite stretches, especially since my hip operation, as I can now relax into it a little more.

Sometimes, a deeper stretch doesn’t come from pushing further. It comes from offering the body more support.

That support can help us soften, settle and work with our body rather than against it ✨💕

Save this for your next gentle hip-opening practice, or share it with someone who might find it helpful 🫶🏼
