🏃‍♀️ PALS! I need your help!

This year I’ve been running 1000km to raise £1000 for @calmzone

You can read all about it on my Just Giving Page (the why, the how, the injuries etc) but sadly I haven’t managed to complete it… BUT…

It’s become a community effort! I have around 140km left and £240 left to raise. Can you help? There’s one more day, can you complete a run (of ANY length) and send it to me to add to the total? Or donate a small amount?

Please share, get involved if you can! This is the final push, and the I will finally shut up about it forever 😂 and hopefully make a difference to some lives with the money we raised 🧡

My Running Challenge Update

I’m absolutely gutted. It’s taken me a while to accept that I’m not going to make it. So devastated.

If anyone has suggestions about how to move forward with it I’d love to hear? Maybe a collective type of thing? Everyone runs 10km and adds it to the total? Or I give it an extra couple of months to accommodate for accidents and injury?

Things don’t always go to plan. I really really hate not achieving, so this is a huge disappointment to me.

But it’s not about me. It’s about helping people.

So much money has been raised! And lots of wonderful conversations had around mental health. For that I’m really pleased.

#1000kmchallenge #calm #runningchallenge #mentalhealth #charityrun

Missing my London Yogis so much 💔 what a joy it was to lead you through so many practices over so many years! I really feel when I left London I was an entirely different person and teacher to when I started teaching… and some of you were there for it all!! After a long time teaching full-time (that London yoga teacher grind!) I actually think a little break was really needed, to recoup and rest. But now it’s hitting me, I really miss you all and sharing this beautiful practice.

Starting to muse over coming back for some workshops and day retreats: would you be keen?

In the meantime: I’ve got availability for online clients! I have a gorge little space where I teach my one to-one, and the big advantage of these sessions is that it’s a real conversation. It’s about you, and if you show up to a session and you need something totally different to usual, that’s great! I always start my one to one sessions with a wee chat, a check-in, and a discussion about what you want from the session and how you feel.

Prefer to practice in a group? I also do group sessions online: I’ve done these for workplaces, small groups and more!

And for anyone who happens to be in Glasgow and surrounding: I also do one-to-ones in your home for those gorgey hands on assists (if you want them) and I can come to your office!

I might be the most awkward human to photograph but the wonderful @livingstonehazzer was an absolute dream and had great chat as well as incredible skill 🧡 highly recommend!

Transitions are tough. With the clocks going back and the leaves falling it feels like are in the depths of Autumn 🍂 a time of letting go, taking stock, simplicity. Associated with grief and poignancy. It can feel raw, sad, but also nourishing. We turn towards quiet, connection, self-care.

At the same time, I’ve transitioned from 14 years in London to living in Glasgow. I’m still not sure how my life will look. It’s been a few weeks of settling, being outdoors, travelling back to London 😂.

It feels like the perfect time to slow down, to nourish, to take time for yourself. This time last year I ran an Autumn Nourishment Retreat with @louise.brown.yoga and it was so special 🧡

How are you feeling this Autumn? Are you an Autumn lover or do you find it challenging?

What do you need? Are you carving out time for yourself?

I’m going to run some online classes: a simpler way to carve out time for yourself, especially when it’s dark and cold and your energy is low. And a way to connect and be part of community (even if you live far away like me).

One thing I’m loving is the beautiful oranges and reds of the leaves 🍂 I love Autumnal colours.

Huge love 🧡

🥹 Final Week of Public Classes in London

Come join me on the mat for the rest of this week:

Wednesday 6.45pm Vinyasa and 7.45pm Sound Bath @thirdspacelondon Clapham

Thursday
12 Yoga @designdistrictlondon (2nd last week)
4.30pm Yin, 5.45pm Rocket and 6.45pm Signature Flow @goodgood_yoga

Friday
9.30am Dynamic vinyasa @yogahaven Clapham
3.30pm Hot Vinyasa, 4.30pm Hot Hatha, 5.30pm Hot Vinyasa @thirdspacelondon TB

So touched by all the kindness and love from all the goodbyes so far 🧡😭

I have drifted away from my physical practice quite a bit over the past few months. I think for most of us it ebbs and flows, but I want to find my way back.

Life gets in the way right? A hugely busy teaching schedule, training for two half marathons, making time to spend with my boyfriend, other life stuff. And then the realisation that your body has changed, your practice has changed and the resistance to accepting that. Sound familiar?

Whether you are a student or teacher, just commit to 20 minutes. I squeezed this practice in this morning after teaching my early private, walking the dog, and before breakfast. A very quick flow to come back to my body and breath.

I’m going to try and commit back to a non-negotiable 20 minutes a day, plus at least one long practice a week with another teacher (always tricky as we all teach at the same times!). Take time for me, turn in, so I can connect out a little more when I step off the mat.

Ps flow at speed x 4

Hey pals

I’ve set myself the HUGE challenge of running ONE THOUSAND kilometres this year. I’m terrified.

I’m doing this for CALM, a mental health charity, after losing friends and friends of friends last year.

If you can support me on my journey the link is in my bio!

If you want to join me on a run, I’m hoping to run with as many friends, old and new, as I can and maybe also organise some social runs. Stay tuned! And reach out if you fancy a run.

The hope is, through this challenge to support extremely important and underfunded resources and also support my own mental health as well as those around me.

Sending lots of love 🧡

Ps if you don’t want to run but would like a chat, or are feeling low, or need to share then please reach out.

🍂 Still slowly floating back to reality after the most glorious Autumn Nourishment Retreat co-hosted with my wonderful friend and incredible teacher @louise.brown.yoga at the stunning @west_lexham

The weekend felt like the perfect embodiment of Autumn. We connected deeply, we nourished our bodies and minds, we rested, we look in, we connected out.

It was a real privilege to guide 17 souls through their practice, to hold space for people who have chosen to take precious time, and money of course, to trust us to give them an experience that will allow growth, nourishment, quiet and more.

Yoga is an incredibly practice, I found it through the beautiful asana practice and I love guiding people through it and empowering them to explore their physical bodies. Over the years I’ve discovered more and more about this exceptional philosophy and ancient practice, and it’s such a pleasure watching students delve deeper.

As I said, we look in so we can connect out. It’s incredibly important to take time for ourselves, to listen to what we need, to fill up our cup. And then, we have the strength, the power, the grounding and the support to connect out and help others and the world around.

It was big and it was special.

This won’t be the last of the Sophie and Louise wild retreat collab 😂😍🧡

#yogaretreat #ukyogaretreat #autumnnourishment

The reality of home practice 😂 🐾🐕‍🦺

This is your reminder, you don’t have to have a beautiful space, a gorgeous yoga kit, a distraction free hour, any particular type of body, anything really to practice yoga. Your yoga practice doesn’t have to look a certain way, or make specific shapes, or be comparable in any way to anyone else’s. It’s your time. Whether in a studio or at home or somewhere else, your practice is unique to you.
I always want to facilitate that. I aim to create space for everybody in my classes. I hope that I always make everyone feel welcome and supported.

If you’d like to practice in a studio with me I am teaching at @willow_ldn @yogahaven and @thirdspacelondon

🌷Spring Equinox Workshop ☀️

When: Saturday 23rd March 2-4pm

Where: @yogahaven Clapham

What: Celebrate the beginning of Spring and a return to the sun with this nourishing, renewing workshop. A natural moment in the earth’s cycle to shed what is no longer serving us and create space for new beginnings. Embrace the new growth, light and life.

This workshop will be a beautifully balanced mix of yin to nourish, vinyasa to invigorate, and pranayama (breathwork) and meditation.

This is an opportunity to tune in, to make nourishing choices, and to awaken dormant energy from winter.

Let’s welcome in Spring together. All are welcome!

The past few weeks: 90% @ramble.with.bramble, mix in a bit of Tilly (my other number one girl), my best friend @alexwrwilson, a visit with the family, and a brilliant time with @slotmachinetheatre playing with the cutest puppets making another gorgeous show.

Very weird to have not taught yoga for a few weeks. Vocal issues meant I had to take a break from teaching but I’ll be back in the New Year! Might pop into the studios to practice though when I’m home at the weekends.

#rescuepuppy #puppetry #christmasshow #cyprusrescuedog #scotland #adoptdontshop

Our weekends have changed a little…ok a lot… since this little sweetheart came into our lives. Lots more staying at home, slow living, gentle walks, cuddles. The adventure days will come, for now it’s just chill. Friends, come join us for a walk and a coffee. She might not be brave enough to say hello, but she will watch you from afar and you can marvel at her cuteness!

More obsessed every day @alexwrwilson

Also, give her a wee follow @ramble.with.bramble

✨Bramble ✨

One Month with our little snuggle bug!

I cannot believe she’s been here for a whole month. This little bean has stolen my heart, I’m fully obsessed. She is the cutest, sweetest little pup. Whenever I sit on the floor she likes to “hop on board” and curls up on my knee. And her favourite place in the world is in our bed for morning cuddles.

It’s going to be a long journey with little Bramblina. I’ve grown up with rescue dogs, and I knew this would be different as I’ve never had a puppy. So we were ready for the craziness that a puppy can bring. But this puppy is a little different, and I don’t think we were fully prepared for the amount of fear and overwhelm she would experience. The outside world and other people are still hugely scary experiences for Bramble, but patience is key with this puppy. We knew about the 3:3:3 rule for rescue dogs… it’s becoming clear that maybe for Bramble it’s 4:4:4. She took 4 days to stop hiding from us and start to choose interacting and sitting on our knee. It took nearly 4 weeks for her to start to play with us, to become cheeky inside the house, to interact fully with toys. So she takes a little more time. She’s a sensitive soul. But so are we, so she’s gonna fit right in.

I’m so excited for the day we can take her on one of our day trips out of London for a walk in the countryside and exploring. That day will come. But it’s a little way off for our wee bean.

In the meantime, it’s more learning to play with balls, more “sit”, “lie down” and “boop” (this one is so cute), more cuddles and reassurance, more friendly gentle visitors that give her space, more homebody and less explorer.

It’s been a whirlwind of emotions. It’s going to continue to be for a while. But she is worth it. And those morning cuddles in bed are heaven 💕

*Upcoming Workshop*

Pincha Play: Inversions and Arm Balances

Yoga is about so much more than asana (postures), but sometimes it's super fun to just play around with being upside down. Forearm stand is the pose I get asked about the most. And I get it! For a long time this posture was pretty elusive to me, and the journey there makes it so much more satisfying. I love Pincha, there is something about it that just flips my perspective and helps me ground.

This workshop is going to focus on building the strength, skills and body awareness to begin to allow you to play and explore this pose (as well as a couple of other arm balances). Beginning with a flow to prepare the body, we will then move into an open and inclusive workshop style practice, where questions, hands on assists and plenty of laughs will be very welcome!

The aim of this workshop isn't to execute that perfect Pincha (though some of you might), but instead to equip you with the tools, confidence and dedication to continue on your journey towards it.

To book head to the @yogahaven website 🥳

Drop me a message if you have any questions x x x
