A New Season Begins …. at @sageandsound .

Admittedly I probably don’t organise these often enough, but one of my great joys in this role, is gathering and being amongst our faculty of teachers, healers and practitioners.

Sharing time together and remembering what brings us all together, in our sacred Study.

Trains played havoc with arrivals so a few our latest additions to this fine group not featured here, the divine @edenskyorion and @michellebelegrin (so grateful for you both!)

Coming up this fall, we’ve paved the way for a little more movement , so starting this week, Mondays and Tuesdays 5pm are Pilates + Align; Wednesdays and Thursdays 5pm is Restorative Yoga , offered in the space between your working day, and your evening!

Beyond this , of course, all your favourites , from Sound , to Breathwork, Meditation , Astrology, Manifestation and all the goodies.

More to come, and much love from all of us here on the Upper East Side ! taken in Sage + Sound by @soundofthetimes

This weekend’s journey for a gorgeous small group, a preparation for a shift in season from an abundance of warmth + light toward a phase of cool depth and darkness.

This period takes me back to a nostalgic childhood memory of Harvest Festival , a time at school , we’d be invited to celebrate the yield of crops from a season of growth. That framework and rhythm of observing what has grown , what is ready to harvest , still exists and hovers in my body clock.

I collected some of my seasonal favourites on my morning walk, Milkweed Pods, almost at their zenith , their seeds ready to unleash themselves, and shared one pod with each guest before we began. Our pre-journey talk , was more of a sensory exploration of these beauties .

Within the uneven, irregular pods, lies a perfectly arranged , sleeping miracle of Mother Nature’s engineering, a legion of tightly packed, Fibonacci coded angels, primed to be carried on autumnal winds .

To peek inside, and feel, and smell , and see , is to observe our inner and outer world as one. Few words were even required, an entire journey held within the palm of a hand 🪬

It came as no surprise (more so a divine affirmation!) to me when writing this, to understand that milkweed’s latin name is Asclepias , shared with the Greek god of healing. taken in Williamsburg, Brooklyn by @soundofthetimes

This was the summer we finally got to take a bit of @sageandsound outside. I couldn’t be prouder of this and our incredible team - some of whom are here in the first pic. @imma_balla @julia_and_gang and @alexsilverfagan you are legends.

Huge thanks to our partners and my good family @ateam.co , for inviting us to close out their own summer of movement and wellness each weekend at @thesurflodge , with our collaboration the very same day their app launched to the world .

Venturing out of the calm of our Study in NY, to Sag Harbour earlier this summer, and then to my dear Montauk , expanding how and why folks experience @sageandsound ; nudging the edges of what we are known for beyond mindfulness towards movement and truly an exploration of both with ‘Strong + Sound’ - has just been such a gift this summer. All prior to our opening up in Greenwich for so many amazing new ways to practice and deepen with us !

Since my long gone PR days, my favourite thing is connecting people together, and being in a place to welcome @sageandsound and @ateam.co into one experience was just 🎯.

@alexsilverfagan and I giggled a little, we’ve known each other five years, since she walked into a sound meditation of mine on the Bowery, and Monday was in fact our first time co-teaching together. i loved the full circle of all of this .

Thank you to everyone involved, everyone who showed up in that gorgeous sunshine . More soon! We promise! taken in The Surf Lodge by @soundofthetimes

coming back after a week away basking in the sun and ocean and salt air and sand - all things that i know are deeply nourishing for my spirit and soul.

my heart yearns for that, often, AND also yearns to be in the place of sharing sound and breath practices with folks. so , beautiful as my time away was, i was of course itching to be back on the cushion.

Classes on Thursday were so deeply yummy and I was pondering on something one of my guests said after our breathwork + sound session -

“how am i going to go back to my real life after this?”
; she didn’t mean after just the class itself, but cumulatively, after spending a week with us at @sageandsound , when she returns to work as the principal at a school after the holidays .

my response , with humor, was “i’ve got news for you , this IS your real life now” ; and what we went on to talk about was just how we integrate these experiences in our lives, our work, our communities ; until there is no ‘this and that’ . that is where our collective responsibility lies; to offer a gateway for these practices to filter further than we may physically reach ourselves.

Sometimes within the mechanics of an organisation where a class is itemised as 60 minutes, we may forget (all of us, teacher, student , guest) that the impact or integration of an experience, sits way outside of that relatively short period of time. In fact, the time afterwards is almost more important.

Anyway; i love you all ♥️ see you soon for more taken in Sage + Sound by @soundofthetimes

✨ yesterday the sky wept & the earth danced. 🌧️ what began as a day of the big unknown—storm & rain & blizzard blessed—became something sacred.

back together. 🔥 us, drenched & glowing, souls gathering as the stars aligned as they always do.

yesterday was a celebration ✨💫

as my beloved friend Tenzin Bob liked to say: the heart is like a small universe. when you open your heart, you open a universe of love. 💫❤️

thank you to every luminous being who showed up. who got soaked. who opened. 🌙💧

@georgewmacpherson sometimes I need to poke myself, to know that I’m not dreaming. You are such a gift! You’re the best ever soul partner on this journey called the human experience. Love you so much 🤍

Led one of my very favourite classes in ages today up at @sageandsound with a really beautiful group of deep listeners.
sometimes the room just comes together and feeds the sound.

Prob best to use headphones if you want to listen and close your eyes for a bit . taken in Sage + Sound by @soundofthetimes

This last week in London has been deeply moving , the passing of a much loved friend to many , across decades of our lives , had brought me home - in more ways than one.

I had asked my brilliant friend Liza, founder of @wetheconscious.studio if I might be able to offer a sound meditation in her gorgeous space to cap off a somewhat heavy week ; by way of offering a moment for helping my friends and I to metabolise the past few weeks .

it’s a very rare treat for me to lead sound medi’s in London , and to do this here was just so meaningful .

Playing for old friends (and even one of their young daughters - who now wants to be a sound practitioner when she grows up!) who’ve known me since we were kids on the dance floors of Newcastle, and newer friends I’ve met along the way , in a part of London that’s never stopped feeling like home was just a perfect way to cap off a week I will never forget .

Humming together on this sky cloud was just , beautiful . What came through, a reminder of how in times of heightened emotion, sensation and stimulation, these experiences can so purposefully aide, bringing us back to homeostasis and a stillness so needed - a foundation of any healing .

Thank you all for coming ♥️ taken in We The Conscious by @soundofthetimes
