Vitamin Rest.

If you haven’t had your daily dose, take 10 minutes now, if you can 💕

I am not being lazy. I am practising a very important skill - self regulation.

I can only share this with you from my own experience.

It is not something you can teach from a book.

One thing I love about yoga is the endless possibilities within a single pose.

Take cat-cow. You can lead with the breath, the spine, the belly, the pelvis.

You can follow a familiar pattern of breathing or explore something different like breath retention or suspension.

Every permutation feels different. There’s always something more to discover, and it doesn’t have to be bigger or harder to be worthwhile.

This is why I never get bored of yoga.

What version of cat cow will you explore today?

The belly is the intersection between our inner and outer worlds.

It’s where we receive, process, digest, absorb or repel what comes our way.

Of course, this includes the food and drink we consume. But what about all the other information coming in - conversations, emotions and experiences?

During menopause, changes in our bodies can make us more aware of this interplay, with bloating and digestive discomfort sometimes adding another layer to how we feel in our bellies.

How can we be present with all of this and listen to our bellies and understand what they’re telling us?

Come and explore this connection with your belly at my Belly, Bloat & Menopause workshop on Saturday 24 October.

There is so much going on in the space between the ribs and the pelvis; physically, mentally and emotionally.

Give your belly some space to unwind and soften 🌀🙌

Saturday 24th October @jivahealth Belly, Bloat & Menopause - a space to connect to and honour the sacred belly ❤️

Comment BLOATED and I will send you a practice to help you deeply relax your belly.

It’s not always about what you eat…

Tired. Overwhelmed. Bloated.

If you’re feeling this too, grab a bolster or stack of cushions and flop for 5 mins.

Not a cure, but at least a shift and reset. by @longibbonsyoga

*Restore Calm*

Your space to pause, rest and replenish.

Starts today · 6 October · 2.30pm UK• online • link in bio 🙏 by @longibbonsyoga

What have you stopped doing that used to bring you joy?

Something you used to love. Something that made you lose track of time.

The other day I realised I hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in years. So today, instead of doing what I thought I ‘should’ be doing, I spent ten minutes painting.

It wasn’t about creating something good.
It was about doing something I love.

It felt slightly rebellious & surprisingly calming. 😊

What have you stopped doing? by @longibbonsyoga

I’ve been there.

In my 30s and 40s, I was teaching as much as I could, saying yes to more classes, giving to everyone else — and gradually becoming more and more exhausted.

I know how easy it is to believe that your own practice can wait.

It can’t.

Even ten minutes of rest can make a difference.

That’s one of the reasons I’ve created Restore Calm — 8 weeks to explore rest, regulation and slowing down, starting Tuesday.

If you’re a yoga teacher who needs some space to replenish, I’d love to have you join me.

Imagine becoming the woman who no longer regards rest as a waste of time, but as her superpower.

This is the journey of Restore Calm — my 8 week online course, starting Tuesday 6th October.

If you are perpetually stressed, exhausted and overwhelmed your body is asking for more rest. Perhaps it’s time to listen 🙌
