I’m still learning to tend more to my internal before the external
Being grounded and connected to nature in even the smallest of ways has helped me overcome many challenges but without moments to pause and reflect we just end up on auto pilot.
I’m looking forward to the second Root&Rise this Sunday mainly to give people a reason to get into nature and take a moment to pause from the daily grind.
If you have some time this week try spend some more time outside and notice how much better you feel, or what comes to the surface that was hiding in the shadows of busyness 🌿💫 by @active.healing

This stage of Root & Rise is about coming back to yourself in the simplicity of nature, but reflects the quietness of soil, and also the mighty branches above

This event was initially inspired by @higherselfthemovement and all the other hiking events that have beautifully popped up the last few years, but also a privileged upbringing to have a family that took me into nature whether that’s England, Spain, or Barbados

Getting into nature doesn’t have to be a privilege, starting within London shows that nature can be on our doorstep even within a city this big

If you have got a ticket already LOVE always, if you are yet to buy one details in Eventbrite link in my bio.

This is just the beginning, and my last event of 2026 as I build from the ground up

Slide through to see my honest opinions of where I’ve worked over the last 9 years! It’s truly flown by.
Variety when you’re starting is great but the sooner you can lock in with your speciality the better. Don’t waste time torturing yourselves at jobs you hate, or with colleagues that don’t appreciate you.
Always put yourself first, heal yourself, study, enjoy life and know when to quit and move on! Don’t underestimate the impact of your personal life on your job, although your life is more important than your job, when people are relying on you at work to save or improve their life, you can’t afford to be dragged down by relationships that drain you or don’t understand why you can hardly speak after a shift in healthcare.

For students, future physios, current physios - feel free to reach out if you have any questions or want support- I’ll do my best to help you or put you in touch with someone who can.
Let me know below which speciality you enjoyed most or which one you need experience in.

Future/current clients, know when to ask for help from health professionals but most importantly try to heal yourself so you don’t end up in critical care within hospitals that quite frankly are sinking day by day.

Today’s self-care was just a ten minute walk around the block, laundry, eating for fuel and meal prep for work
I did this in silence because I’m working on reducing constant stimulation

I’ll be doing more physical activity later so the goal was not to tire myself out but do what needs to be done so I can rest later and after work tomorrow with food prepped and my mind at rest because I covered the basic and important tasks for today

Day 5 of the loc’IN and I’m actually looking forward to these rituals as I can feel the positive effects already, but the temptation is always there to do too much or feel bad for what I didn’t do instead of being grateful for what I did achieve

When your mind is blocking you from doing things you know will benefit you, make the action as easy as possible
•Walk up and down your road or outside your work, instead of committing to a longer walk in the park or forest
•Cook with whatever is in the cupboard or fridge and try and make enough for a few meals so you don’t have to cook again the next day
•Make that one phone call you’ve been putting off
•Leave your book or journal on your pillow so it’s ready for when you get home, if 10 pages feels too much just read 1, if a page of journaling feels too much just write 1 word or sentence that summarises your day (you’ll almost already do more)

Small incremental changes is what leads to sustainable habit formation
Give yourself grace but use the tools that work for you that come from a place of self love, not shame by @active.healing

As a holistic physio I understand that the body and nature speak the exact same language of geometry, alignment, and energy

After yoga & meditation I was sharing what I’ve been learning about Sefech Ba Ra the Kemetic energy centers, similar to/original chakras:
-Sefech = 7
-Ba = Soul & Vital Breath
-Ra = Divine Light & Sun Source

While speaking about Ra (associated with the Third Eye center), these beautiful longhorns stepped out of the woods and turned to face us right on time

On reflection and further study of Kemetic spirituality, I learned that the broad crescent horns form a natural antenna for high-frequency cosmic light channelling divine sight directly into the Third Eye Ra

We teach, we learn, and nature provides the live demonstration 𓋹

I love to start my walks with Fully Body Activation to prevent injuries and prepare our bodies for what we’re about to do
Exercising to the beat of the music can help the time go by but the burn was still definitely felt!😂

Even something as simple as walking should be prepared for on the day and also leading up to it with specific exercises that target key muscle groups

The best preparation for extended walking is regular walking, gradually increasing distance over time and paying attention to what areas may need to be stronger by @active.healing
