Mental wealth. Worth more than Bitcoin. Mental wealth is valuing your headspace by emptying your head of all the cluttered nonsense. A headstand does promote this because you literally can’t think about bollocks when your standing on your head. #mentalhealth #mentalwealth #headstand

VEGANISM, YOGA, NUTRITION & SUSTAINABILITY all top

VEGANISM, YOGA, NUTRITION & SUSTAINABILITY all topics that are connected, complex and perhaps controversial. link in Bio to a #blog and vlog talking to science based nutritionist @blanka_campbell about how examining our poor health lead us both on paths from veganism to meat eating. We discuss the science of nutrition for the body in the context of ethics and sustainability and what it means for us individually as yoga practitioners. The discussion is potentially controversial but it’s important to address the taboo of meat eating within the wellbeing community. We conclude by highlighting the moral and health dilemmas that each of us face and that intuitive considered eating is essentially the most sustainable and non harming. #veganism #sustainability #yoga #nutrition #ahimsa #nonharmjng #meateating #nonvegetarian #vegetarian #health #wellbeing #diet

Had some ‘constructive feedback’ on my yoga te

Had some ‘constructive feedback’ on my yoga teaching from a student from my senior’s over 70’s class. She politely informed me that they’d had a chat and prefer more movement and less of my discussion. Which was totally fair enough, I did get very carried away describing the intricacies of subtle energetics as described within ancient scripture and when I noticed it go over their head I dug myself even deeper into a hole by further explanations on the path of yoga as a pursuit in blowing wide open the doors of perception to expand one’s awareness of the ever expanding omnipresent conscious life force that pervades all the cosmos. Poor Linda and friends only came to my yoga for a bit of a stretch after a morning of gardening and left a bit bewildered so I’d really gone over board 😆🤭🤦🏽‍♀️ anyone else feeling a bit rusty going back to teaching in-person classes?’ #yogateacher #yogaclass #knowyouraudience

A helpful way to understand meditation is to consi

A helpful way to understand meditation is to consider the ocean as a representation of the mind. The breaking waves at the shore are the thoughts that arise and dissolve at the surface of your awareness. How they break depends on what’s going on with the current out back. When you meditate, you don’t focus on the waves of thoughts because they come and go, and don’t try and stop them either because you can’t. When you meditate youre drawing your awareness beyond the waves towards the horizon that glistens and shimmers where it appears still but really is always vibrant and moving. The water out back is the vast Infinite consciousness that you greet during meditation . #ocean #meditation

Here I have created a 25 minute simple yoga dance practice as movement medicine for women. It can form a foundation for your exploration using some basic movement patterns inspired by dance hall and belly dance. You can buy on Vimeo for about £8 link in bio
#yogaanddance #womensempowerment

It is a chance to explore how rhythm and dance can become a potent practice to build strength and tone, improve co-ordination and awaken life-force for creative self-expression.

It’s a simple light hearted and fun way to get into the body and out of the head

Not a lotta you know this about me but before I be

Not a lotta you know this about me but before I became a professional yoga teacher 15 years ago I worked within investment banks and hedge funds as a financial analyst following on from my degree in Banking & International Finance. I even did an intern at the Bank of England and also got a MSC in Development Economics. I was passionate about economics but didn’t pursue my career in that industry mainly because I couldn’t hack the working conditions of sitting down in front of a screen all day. It really affected my wellbeing and mental health. I was never built to sit still and yoga teaching allowed me to move around and take my shoes off! Until recently I thought there was something wrong with why the office environment affected me so badly but since realised that it’s not me, it is actually bad for you. Studies and books on the subject show that sitting down all day is more lethal than smoking cigarettes! So if you are struggling with the sitting down, don’t feel bad about it, just get up, move around, take regular breaks and get outside. All that sitting, It’s a tough dangerous job you’re doing and you need to look after your health! #officejob #techneck #sedatarylifestyle #sittingdown #banking #careerchange #yogateacher

Since exploring polyvagal theory I’ve had a renewed sense of awe for the obscure ancient yogic Kriyas and a new found respect for the potency of Drishti. Yet again affirming to me that updating my knowledge base with contemporary discoveries in science allows me to make deeper in-roads into the incredible wisdom within ancient yogic practices. #yogaisamazing #yogaroots #vagusnerve #polyvagaltheory

The moon salutations flow in a fluid circular moti

The moon salutations flow in a fluid circular motion as opposed to linearly, like the sun salutations. There are subtle moments and energetic shifts which embody the full, new waxing and waning phases of the mooN. They allow for a shift in focus into the ‘dark side of the moon’ which metaphorically represents going inwards and facing one’s shadow side, the subconscious hopes, desires and fears which is necessary to do often to recharge and sustain one’s energy and motivation and heal throughout the cycles of life. The moon salutations lead with the left and embody the feminine principles of strength and power through surrender and grace. They are also a real mutha to instruct and teach on zoom given the changes in direction 😅

Are you a ‘Highly Sensitive Person’ ? 15-20% o

Are you a ‘Highly Sensitive Person’ ? 15-20% of the population are. 50% male : female are. Its those whom have a genetic trait of higher sensory processing sensitivity which lead them to display 4 core traits

1) Depth of processing (deeply analyse the world around them)

2) Overstimulation (quickly overwhelmed by the world around them)

3) Empathy (feeling what others are feeling)

4) Awareness of subtleties (like being a finely tuned sensor picking up on the minutest details in their environment).

Being a Highly Sensitive Person is not really about being a better or worse person, they are simply different, they experience the world in a more vivid way. It can lead to them suffering deeply, feeling ostracised or misunderstood yet in the right context, it can lead to them having a strong sense of intuition, creativity imagination and empathy. Society could do with elevating the qualities of the Highly Sensitive Person as their genuine urge to feel connection and meaning in life can greatly heal and elevate the wellbeing of society. #hsp #highlysensitiveperson

When we were young carefree and so enraptured by e

When we were young carefree and so enraptured by each other...12 years, 2 kids and locked down in a pandemic later and we bickering over homeschooling, nappy changes and loading the dishwasher. But there’s the shared giggles over the baby’s dance moves, there’s Friday night watching Star Trek and there’s the Tuesday night ‘I love you , I’m sorry’ head massages. Love is not easy but it’s worth it. As extracts khalil gibran’s poem on love says,

“Even as he (love) is for your growth
so is he for your pruning.
Even as he ascends to your height and
caresses your tenderest branches that quiver in the sun,
So shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the earth.

All these things shall love do unto you that you may know the secrets of your heart, and in that knowledge become a fragment of Life’s heart.

But if in your fear you would seek only love’s peace and love’s pleasure,
Then it is better for you that you cover
your nakedness and pass out of love’s
threshing-floor,
Into the seasonless world where you
shall laugh, but not all of your laughter,
and weep, but not all of your tears.”

It’s easy to get caught up in ‘should’s’.

It’s easy to get caught up in ‘should’s’. The same is true of meditation. Many people feel like they ‘should’ meditate and that they should learn techniques. The truth is, it’s quite the opposite and you shackle yourself with ‘should’. Instead, take the pressure off and unburden yourself by stripping back from technique. Meditation can be simple. Close your eyes, mentally repeat Om. Do it for a while. That’s it. Nothing ‘should’ be happening. There’s nothing to achieve. #om #meditation

FREE VINYASA FLOW for Intermediates -60 min audio

FREE VINYASA FLOW for Intermediates -60 min audio file via podcast available now. link in bio. occurred to me that we have an epidemic in the over reliance and use of screens.

Zoom has become a popular format in which to receive yoga classes along with the existing pre-recorded classes online.

This is all good but trying to keep your eyes on a screen to follow along with a sequence can detract from ones yoga experience and misses a trick in terms of cultivating deep listening skills and autonomy.

15 years ago before video was so prolific and easily accessible and when iTunes was a new thing I personally really enjoyed practicing yoga via audio file guided instruction so decided to offer a sequence this way. It’s Time for a come back of the audio yoga class!

So this is a 60 minute free guided vinyasa flow yoga sequence for practitioners that have an existing knowledge of the practice and are familiar with the names of the poses and the typical transitions.

The intermediate should also be able to discern when to modify or adapt the guided practice to suit their needs in the case of any existing injury or issue.

I’ve been quietly reflecting recently. So much

I’ve been quietly reflecting recently. So much is going on and the pace of change is so rapid. Just when you think it’s as surreal and confusing as it’s going to get, things gets weirder and worse. People are sick, society is sick, the economy is sick, political institutions are sick and our planet is sick. There is despair and isolation that needs to be remedied with hope and unity. Those of us that are relatively well,need to now, more than ever, recognise our healing capabilities and do what we can wherever and however we can to give hope, generosity and loving kindness in order to heal the sick. Humans have so much untapped healing potential and this needs realising. #healing #lovingkindnessmeditation

We live in broadstairs now. Here’s the new set up for yoga sessions. Starting with a little local class for my over 60’s neighbours😍. Gonna keep my offerings modest and local and wait and see how things develop based on local interest and demand. I’m still running the @realflowyoga yoga teacher training specialist courses via zoom classrooms. I might put together an online zoom schedule for general yoga and Pilates and will eventually run the full yoga teacher training but for now there’s no rush and we are just settling in. #yogaclasses #localbusiness #broadstairs

Living in phases: THE DRIFT & FLOAT PHASE: a consc

Living in phases: THE DRIFT & FLOAT PHASE: a consciously constructed time of unstructured being and allowing. No particular focus, just day and night dreaming. Going with the ebb and flow of energy, with spontaneous bursts of activity or lulled lazy hazy moments of rest. I’ve permitted myself a window of living like this for 3 months, until the autumnal equinox, (which coincides with my son’s 1st birthday and marks the 12 month postpartum.) This completes the postpartum cycle for me (maternity leave) which has been 3 months to heal, 3 months to rebuild, 3 months to revitalise and now 3 months to drift & float. It’s been the drift & float phase which has been most challenging, because of the unknown, but also the most revelationary. I’ve not been visibly productive in any way, I’ve not been creative and I’ve not had any breakthroughs or any feelings of inspiration but what’s poignant about it is that I now know with great assurance and confidence, is that this is a necessary time of nothingness that too, shall pass. (Unless of course you count being content and happy and having a content and happy baby as productive!)
