And it goes a little something like this …..

Good morning joints
Good morning earth beneath my feet
Good morning nature
Good morning to the poodles
Good morning to putting on the dress

A little movement, a little connection with nature, a little more you 🌳

Who’s with me?

My kind of tree pose

No mat. No studio. No lycra.

Just moving with the trees, mirroring the shapes, connecting with it all in presence, and wearing whatever I like ❤️

I know it’s not always accessible to take off the shoes and socks, and get the souls of the feet on the earth…

But simply just bringing your awareness to your feet, feeling what’s underneath, the texture, the temperature, the connection, can be a beautiful way to ground yourself.

It’s how I always begin my day and my practice.

Try it and see what you notice 🌻

Feeling very grateful for moments like this. The opportunity to slow down, be still, breathe, notice the beauty around me and just be. Sometimes we don’t need to be doing anything at all.

Perhaps we don’t need to know where the path leads.
Perhaps we only need to trust that it is leading us somewhere.

Daily practice.

There’s something about putting on music and giving the body permission to move without needing to know where it’s going.

Letting the music find its way into the body.
Opening, expanding, breathing and circling through space.
Being present enough to listen and follow.

It’s not about getting anywhere or doing it “right”.

It’s about the joy of the music and movement.

A little time each day to move, feel and play.

So put on a song you love.
Give yourself some space.
And allow yourself move.

Morning Movement

before the day asks anything of you,
take a moment to arrive

to move without judgement

to feel the spaces beneath, between and around

to breathe, wake up and open

to listen, connect and simply be with yourself

start slowly, allow your body to set the pace

Just being here, moving, breathing and enjoying the simple pleasure of being alive. 🌱✨

Sometimes the slower we go, the more we get to see.

Don’t you just love having the space to spin around in…. No mat, no Lycra, just special outdoor spaces, being playful in the moment 🙏 This is my joy 🫶

Moving with the sun.
Flowing with the leaves.
Breathing with nature.
Coming home to the body.

Did you know?

We hold so much tension in the jaw, from daily gripping, clamping the jaw shut fight flight mode.

Massaging the jaw, and yawning helps to release that buildup.

Before I start my movement practice, I always begin with touch, massaging the body, tapping the lower back, squeezing the neck.

It’s a great way to start the day 🙏

Peel away the layers.

The layers of expectation.
The layers of fear.
The layers of old stories we’ve carried for years.
The layers of tension we’ve learnt to hold in our bodies.

Peel away the layers, that have been holding you back.
Meet yourself underneath.
