"I’m sharing my perception not the truth, the truth is in your experience." Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen

I love this photo that snapped of me falling. I get a real feeling of movement and life in this image.

To me that’s something yoga asana (posture) can really celebrate, life; energy & expression, all of which can feel so different on any given day.

It’s interesting how a perceived ‘falling’ or ‘failing’ can bring us back into relationship with our own aliveness & humanity. Not to mention humility.

I’m excited to be back offering my Monday evening class tomorrow from home. What was Slow Flow , is now Feeling, Form & Flow, which feels more in line with what that class already was.

Join me at 5.30 - 6.45pm - all are welcome regardless of experience.

Five days of flow ~ An online series

🍂🍃Transitioning with ease 🍃🍂

As summer starts to fade, we find ourselves in September. I think of September as the liminal space between two extremes. Like the quiet stillness between the in breath and the out breath. The quiet suspension between day and night.
In September the light becomes more golden and there’s a chill in the air, we begin to negotiate the seasonal transition between Summer and Autumn. This time of year is associated with the element of Earth which in Chinese Medicine facilitates smooth transitions. This supportive element is the axis which all of the other elements rotate around, an unchanging foundation, the very ground which we stand on and the inner compass which helps us to find our way forward. During periods of feeling unsettled it can be easy to become unfocused and lack direction, we can fall into patterns of overthinking and worry about things which are out of our control. During changes and transitions the ritual of a regular practice can be a really helpful anchor.

I’m offering a sunrise (ish) daily practice to cultivate clarity of direction and embody Earths unwavering steadiness.
We will explore intentional movement, shapes that with intention become gestures. Seeking nourishment from the ground, dwelling in the mystery of the morning where we don’t know how are day will unfold.
Allowing time to appreciate how a regular practice can remind us of who we are and what matters when things feel off balance and groundless.
