I never imagined myself teaching aerial yoga, now I can’t imagine myself not teaching it! It’s fun, it’s silly and it’s challenging. It’ll help you to develop strength, flexibility and confidence. Whether you come alone or with a group, it’s a really supportive environment. And, beginners are very welcome - both new to aerial and/or yoga. If you want to come and give it a go, you can join me at @watersedge.club: Friday 5:45pm Saturday 9:45am You can also add a sauna & lake dip onto your booking after if you’d like 🙏🏻 #aerialyoga #aerialyogalove #aerialsilks #aerialyogaflow

Stress is an inflammatory process in the body & if you’re struggling with your hormones, it’s likely playing a part ⬇️ Stress is an essential mechanism that we need to survive, but we are exposed to so many potential stressors nowadays that so many women are in a constant state of fight or flight. Our body struggles to distinguish what’s stressful and what’s not, so we can find ourselves with a chronic level of inflammation. That kind that just simmers under the surface. And the stress response being so active undoubtedly makes us feel a bit frantic. It’s that feeling of being constantly on edge - that feeling of anticipation but you just can’t put your finger on what it is. And when we’re stressed, our body basically shuts down the systems that aren’t essential in that precise moment. When stressed, we need to produce stress hormones to enable us to navigate that stressful situation. That’s it. We don’t really need hormones like oestrogen, progesterone, thyroxine in those moments. The hormones that support our monthly cycles and mood. Nope. The body will prioritise producing stress hormones (as a survival mechanism). So if you feel like your hormones are out of place and stress could be playing a big part, I see you. We learn all about this in Rebalance (6 week online yoga & nutrition course) and how to work to support the stress response and navigate life in a bit of a calmer, more grounded way. I’ll be opening my second intake for January 26 soon - drop me a message if you’re interested in joining 🌱

Some of my biggest yoga breakthroughs have happened in my living room. Whether it’s been working towards a posture or having a good cry. And today, it was realising that I need to rest. To sit down and do nothing - it’s hard, I’m still learning. Before that, I was playing with some arm balances… they’re fun, frustrating and oh so rewarding when you hold, even for a second! For now though, it’s chilling on the sofa. Have a great weekend whatever you get up to 🙏🏻

Thyroid dysfunction feels like it creeps up on us out of nowhere, but generally, things have been bubbling under the surface for a while. Our thyroid hormones influence so many areas in the body, so when it’s having an off moment, you’ll generally notice lots of different, unusual things happening in your body. Trust your gut if you know something’s not right. A trip to your GP is a good starting point, then, I recommend nutritional therapy for further, holistic support where we explore gut, liver & nervous function - to name a few! If you can relate to any of these symptoms and are unsure where to start, drop me a message to explore how I might be able to support you 🙏🏻
