Lately I’ve been learning more about how stress can show up in the body.

And it’s making me appreciate simple poses like Supported Waterfall even more- not as a way to “fix” or force anything to release, but as an invitation to pause, notice, and simply be.

Couldn’t be happier with our decision to turn the guest room into my little home yoga studio. It’s basically the size of a 230 × 160 cm carpet 😅...and I love every bit of it. 🧘‍♀️🤍

Don’t forget to put yourself on your to-do list this weekend. 🤍

If you need to slow down for a little while, Mermaid Pose is a perfect place to do so.

It creates space through the side body, one breath at a time.

Try it for about 3 minutes on each side.

Sometimes taking care of yourself really can be this simple.

🧜‍♀️✨

Take it as your sign to slow down a little and give yourself time to adjust to the new season. 🍁🤎

I still enjoy the warm days, but I can already feel the difference shorter days and less daylight make for me. So I allow myself to soften a little and listen to my body more closely.

...because maybe we don’t need the same energy in every season. 🌙

How do you feel about the season change? Have you noticed any difference already?

Save it for your next slow evening. 🌙

Two simple Yin poses I like to do when I want to slow down in the evening:

1. Reclined Wall Figure Four: 2–3 min each side
You’ll likely feel this around the hips and glutes. Move closer to the wall for more intensity, or further away for less.

2. Supported Wall Dragonfly: 3–5 min
A gentle way to work with the inner thighs and groin. And yes, your knees can stay slightly bent. :)

The wall does most of the supporting here, which makes both poses great for a more passive practice.

P.S. Only go as deep as feels good for you. Don’t try to copy my range 1:1, your version of the pose might look completely different.

And yes, pyjamas are absolutely allowed. 😌
Yin doesn’t need a perfect outfit, wear whatever makes you feel comfortable enough to slow down and settle in. 🧘‍♀️💚 by @slow_breathe_repeat

20 min Yin Yoga for Cyclists- Part 2 🧘‍♀️

(You can also do this practice even if you’re not a cyclist- your body will thank you 😉)

Yin yoga, like any other form of movement, is not free from the risk of injury. Please be mindful of your body and your capabilities, especially when practicing Half Saddle.

Every body is different, and our range of motion varies. If you are not able to do this pose, feel free to let me know- I’m happy to help you find a suitable variation.

Also, don’t forget to relax your face muscles and arms, they tend to stay tense, and breathe naturally.

Namaste 🙏

This is your sign to do that trip you’ve been thinking about. And if there’s no one else to go with you-go alone!! You’ve got this! 🫶

When an idea pops into my head, eventually I just need to make it happen… And that’s exactly what happened with my idea of cycling from Breda to Antwerp, having a little coffee stop there, and taking the train back home.

The weather was perfect. It was quite windy though, but other than that, I’m so happy I did it!!

It felt like a little getaway: the world slowly waking up, the sun on my face, alone with my thoughts (thank God I like my own company 🫠), cute animals along the way 🐴🐮🐑🐐, 70km in my legs and a very tasty coffee in Antwerp. ☕️

What could go wrong?… Well, my originally planned train got cancelled. 🫠 Anxiety started kicking in… 😂

Luckily, I could take the next one an hour later. And while I was waiting, I got to help an older man buy his ticket from the machine. 🩷

So yeah… take this as your sign. Plan that trip. Take the bike. Go alone if you have to. You might come home with tired legs, a little unexpected adventure, and a story to tell. 🚲💖 by @slow_breathe_repeat
