POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Ahead of our event tomorrow with the wonderful @katie_brindle at @cloudtwelveclub , I wanted to share one of my favourite wellness tools — the @thehayoumethod Tapper! ✨

It has become an essential part of my morning self-care routine and my go-to quick ritual throughout the day whenever I need to get my energy flowing!

I call it my at-home, needle-free acupressure ritual! Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, tapping is a wonderful way to stimulate circulation, encourage lymphatic movement and release tension. Great during menopause, after long periods of sitting, or whenever you experience stiffness, backaches, stress, fatigue or brain fog. In TCM, we use these techniques to encourage the smooth flow of Qi and Blood, but not only!

Enjoy this video! I highly recommend making this simple ritual part of your morning routine, no matter what stage of life you’re in. Just a few minutes can help you feel more awake, energised and connected to your body. ❤️

Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow for Finding Your Power in Menopause with Katie Brindle at Cloud Twelve!

At last we meet, Katie! 🤍 What a fabulous morning with Katie Brindle @katie_brindle , Chinese medicine practitioner and founder of Hayo’u @thehayoumethod

It was so lovely to meet the Indigo Eight @indi8o team too. Thank you for bringing together so many gorgeous people for such a fascinating conversation, a delicious breakfast and the most fabulous gift bag.

Laura so lovely to see you again, and I’m loving your necklace! @flutterbyjewellery will love this photograph. ✨

I’m already using my Hayo’u Bamboo Body Tapper and absolutely loving it. Katie, it was such a joy to meet you, and I cannot wait to do more together!

I love how Katie brings the traditions of Chinese medicine into everyday life through her Hayo’u Method, sharing simple self-care rituals such as gua sha and body tapping. There is so much to learn, and it was fascinating to hear her talk about taking that little bit of time to look after ourselves - and as one of the first people in this country to bring Gua sha become so popular it was fascinating to listen to her see where wellness and the industry will go in the future 🤍

A truly educational and inspirational morning spent with @katie_brindle learning all about Chinese Medicine and her wonderful @thehayoumethod approach for optimised health and wellbeing.

Katie has an infectious passion for her art - for that is what I’m calling it - her knowledge, techniques and products are informed by the pillar stones behind the Chinese Medicine approach to staying well.

I love that Katie’s approach operates at multiple levels- but starts with the easy, entry level practices that can be done in literally a few minutes a day, but which will, in the long term, help match your health span to your life span.

I literally hurried home and curled up on the sofa to learn more before I start my new routine tomorrow. You can find some of Katie’s fabulous tools & book linked on this post and in my Wellness 2026 Highlight ✨

@katie_brindle , founder of @thehayoumethod , shared the pillars of good health at the morning got Brighter ! what an inspiring conversation. ✨

What I love about Katie’s approach is how she makes the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine feel relevant, accessible and realistic for modern life. No complicated routines ,just simple, consistent practices designed to support the body and help energy flow.

From Gua Sha for the face and body, to Bian stone tools, body tapping, acupressure and the use of copper tools, Katie demonstrated rituals that can easily become part of our everyday routine. She also spoke about the importance of circulation, releasing tension, supporting the lymphatic system, sleep, movement and working with the body rather than constantly pushing against it.

So many practical takeaways, but perhaps the biggest one was that looking after our health doesn’t always require doing more. Sometimes it’s about returning to simple practices and giving our bodies the attention they need.

Clear, fascinating and full of practical tips, rooted in thousands of years of Chinese medicine and brought into the modern world in such an approachable way. 🌿

Definitely inspired to bring a few more Hayo’u rituals into my daily routine.
Looking forward to reading the book 👌

Thank you @indi8o

A little throwback to Persephone — the AADNEVIK Spring/Summer 2027 show. From preparing the models’ skin backstage with our Elixir Intense Bio Regenerating Serum and Elixir Intense Bio Regenerative Day Cream SPF 50, to seeing the full ritual come together.

Thank you @aadnevikofficial for having us in your world, and @genevivclinic for bringing together such a beautiful approach to regeneration, care and longevity.

And thank you @visualmarvels.co.uk and @astrellaphotography for capturing the beautiful chaos, quiet rituals and everything in between.

Come with us behind the scenes of “Persephone”. ✨

For @aadnevikofficial Spring/Summer 2027 show, Geneviv Clinic translated that spirit of transformation into backstage care.
Our skin regeneration treatments were designed for no pain, no needles and no downtime with @rexonage3_uk , while low-level light therapy directed at the vagus nerve offered a moment of calm before the runway. Strength, resilience and renewal shaped every choice.

We carried the experience home with longevity kits chosen to make everyday care feel extraordinary:

✨ IM8 Daily Ultimate Essentials brings over 90 carefully selected ingredients into one daily drink. What makes it stand out is the depth of evidence behind the finished formula: it has been studied in a 12-week randomised controlled trial and is NSF Certified for Sport, with independent testing for quality and banned substances. @im8health

✨ SACRA Cosmetics brings together the richness of botanicals and the precision of modern skincare science. Its thoughtful formulas, created with reactive skin in mind, make caring for your skin feel both effective and deeply personal. @sacra.cosmetics

✨ Hayo’u Gold Lip Balm wraps the lips in nourishing oils and butters, finished with a touch of gold—a little piece of backstage luxury to take everywhere. @thehayoumethod @katie_brindle

From a quiet moment before the show to rituals that stay with you afterwards: beauty with strength beneath the surface.

Thank you for the extraordinary capture of the feeling behind the scenes @visualmarvels.co.uk @astrellaphotography

Maybe your body has been carrying something for a very long time.

Tension. Stress. Emotions. Moments you never had the words for.

Sometimes healing doesn’t begin with talking.

Sometimes it begins with slowing down.

With breathing.

With being held in a safe space.

With allowing your body to soften.

This is why we love what we do. 🤍💚

Not just massage.

A moment to pause.
A moment to reconnect.
A moment to come back to yourself.

To be fair, I understand the confusion. It is large, black and shaped with purpose.
But it is simply my Bian-stone body gua sha—and it travels with me. Every airport. Every security tray. The same deeply suspicious examination.
Perhaps it needs its own travel documents. 😆
Does anyone else travel with something they routinely have to explain?

That 3PM feeling when your brain has quietly left the building and you could quite happily put your head on the nearest table.

Before you reach for another coffee, try this.

In Chinese Medicine, tiredness isn’t always seen as a sign that you need MORE energy.

Sometimes your energy simply needs to MOVE.

Body tapping is a wonderfully simple Chinese practice used to stimulate the body, encourage circulation and get Qi moving.

And that’s why I love it for that afternoon slump.

For 60 seconds, tap your body with a relaxed rhythm. Enough to wake everything up, never so hard that you’re bracing against it.

You may notice that you feel warmer.
Clearer.
More awake.
More present.

Without that slightly frantic “I have caffeinated myself back into existence” feeling. 😉

You’re not forcing more energy into your body. You’re working with the energy that’s already there.

Try it for 60 seconds the next time 3PM hits and notice what changes. 🤍

PS. I’m using the Body Tapper from @thehayoumethod in this video, but a loosely clenched fist or a cupped hand works beautifully too.

Save this for your next afternoon slump and follow @dominiqueboesten for simple Chinese movement practices that help you recharge your own battery, move better and waste less energy.
