“Each step forward in our practice is a step inw

“Each step forward in our practice is a step inward.
As we learn to relax into our truth moment by moment, breath by breath, posture by posture, the need for pretence starts to fall away. We find that we are shedding the layers of armour we’ve created to protect the false self we present to the world.

But as the armour falls away, we are confronted by the old fears that created the armour in the first place.

Chances are we will be unaware of the moment when we shed a layer of armour.

We may simply wake up one day to find that an old fear has reared its head, or that it seems harder to get to our mat and attend to other aspects of our practice.

Suddenly chocolate, biscuits and ice cream are on the menu, gossip fills an hour of the day, an unhealthy relationship appears more attractive.

At such times it’s important to understand that a resurgence of old behaviour often accompanies growth, that such regressions are, in fact, signs that we are drawing nearer to our truth.

When we do feel lost or uncertain, drifting away from our practice, blocked from our own truth, it helps to remember that darkness and confusion, too, are part of the path.

Yoga is not a workout, it is a work in. In the Tao Te Ching they say that the only real movement is return.

And this is the point of spiritual practice: to make us teachable, to open our hearts and focus our awareness so that we can know what we already know, and be who we already are.”

This is exactly what I needed to hear today and I hope it is for you 🙏🏽

Hips & Spine

In Yin we target the deep connective tissues between the muscles and fascia which helps to increase circulation in the joints, improve flexibility and release tension. All the while creating stillness in the mind and the body.

Have you taken a quiet moment for yourself today?

Join me for tonight’s Yin & Nidra class as we focus on the hips & spine.

🧦Fluffy socks are optional!

Throwback to warmer times on my birthday last year. I’M MISSING THE HEAT!

As we enter lockdown part 74639 let’s continue to connect. I’m ALWAYS happy to receive funny memes, tiktoks, jokes - anything remotely funny - I’ll share with you too!

Let’s keep laughing 🙏🏽 As the Disney film Soul, (if you haven’t watched it I say watch it NOW!) people are always searching for those big moments/achievements to feel like they are living but life’s best moments are within the small moments 🥰 #gratitude
