Blog

I love to write. 

I need to write.

It is important as moving. It is my way of unknotting my thought processes that are often extremely meandering and unwieldy. 

I write here for anyone who would like a little more insight into how I think.

I’ve been writing blogs for around 17 years now. With the occasional break. At the start of 2023 I decided that I would write more often here. Publicly. About things that move beyond what I teach. I write a lot in private and to limit my output here to those things pertinent to my classes was stifling.

Blogging is not the most popular of formats these days but, to me, it’s one of the most magical. One day I will crack open the archives and take you on journey back in time to what my brain was like in my twenties. Hint: peculiar! But for now, we’ll stick with the present. It is, after all, where I aim to be. 

So, enjoy! Or not. And if you do enjoy you’ll find an option at the bottom of this page to sign up to get my posts sent straight to your inbox.

What, on earth, am I doing here?

I’ve been missing in action. Not only from writing, publicly, on my blog and on Instagram, but from the digital realms more broadly. I stopped using WhatsApp. Started leaving my phone in a drawer. I have made my screen time, beyond briefly checking in with friends and family, to be reserved solely for work.   The…

A Reader Lives a Thousand Lives Before They Die 

A few weeks ago my eldest child returned home from school rather indignant. After throwing down their backpack with a loud sigh they recounted that, in their form-room that day, they had been asked to spend 20 minutes doing something mindful. They’d immediately lit up, reaching inside their bag for the novel they were enveloped…

Dear Intuition…

On Tuesday, we reach the end of a series of classes exploring Intuition. It is a topic I have been exploring for myself a lot in recent months. It is not one I will be letting float on by when the classes end. It’s been really cool to discuss the topic with others over the…

Everybody’s Free to Put Their Phone Down 

On 31st May 1999 I was 16 years, 6 months and 18 days old. In the midst of my GCSEs. Life was mainly about Kohl liner ringed eyes and angry stares. Bass guitars and flutes. Science fiction and literary classics. Languishing in the thrill of stolen cigarettes and fleeting, grubby, romances. I was probably revising,…

A Pretty Bad Year…?!?

2021. It has not been an experience of reality that I will not, in the broadest sense, look back on with a huge fondness. It started with the inherent stressors that came with the lockdowns… namely, for me, keeping up with everything relative to work and home when the homeschooling of my three children landed…

Why we find it so very hard to choose…

Hello lovely humans It has been a little while since I posted on the blog. Life has been good to me, I have been going through a period of huge reflection and change and it can take time, I find, for things to recalibrate and for the all to come back into a natural order.…

Be An Original (And Don’t Be A Dick…)

I’m feeling rebellious, inspired and incredibly energised by life right now. I feel electric. I love how creative I am.  I am creative. I can affirm that with absolute certainty, needing no reinforcement, praise or encouragement. When you are creative (and you are, too, we all are). And when you have something original to show…

Full Class Recording: Be An Original

Fingertip Fragility and What a Yoga Teacher ‘Should’ Be Like…

Lovely humans I spent last weekend on a campsite in Ditchling on a retreat for yoga teachers. It was very cool. I came back with extremely sore thighs from the potent combination of contorted-tent-bound-sleeping-positions on an ever-deflating-airbed, lots of yoga and some accidentally-treacherous-hill-walking. I also arrived home with a pretty deep cut on my finger…

Swaying to stillness and the exquisite bliss of longing for…

Lovely humans, I’ve been caught up in longing. Longing – a “yearning, eager desire or craving,” It comes from the old English langung  a “…weariness, sadness, dejection…” but no definition gets it quite right, for me. To sit in longing is an interesting space. Longing for someone is entirely different to ‘missing’  them, in my awareness.…

Dancing Star Issue 2: Out Now

Hello lovely humans I’m really excited today that, finally, my second issue of Dancing Star is now LIVE. This issue got so long that I had to have it perfect bound so, really, it’s more like a short book! It smells delicious. Dancing Star is truly a passion project for me and I am really…

Full Class Recording: Sun Energy

Here you will find the link to a video of a full, 60 minute, class recording of a potent series called ‘Sun Energy’. This class had a theme around the stars and us all being made of them! It is a fun one. As you will see, the video recordings of full classes are all password…

I Started A YouTube Channel

Lovely humans Just a quick update for you. I wanted a place I could more easily share some short but sweet practises for changing the rhythms of body and mind. The things we can do when we have only 3, 5, 10 minutes max but would like to change how we feel. The result is…

Exquisite Stillness, My Weird Brain and A Bee at My Yoga Room Window

Hello lovely humans I write, today, on a truly beautiful Spring morning. It was a lovely moment to leave the house to do the school run, little hands gripped in mine, and feel the sun on my incredibly pale skin. It also caused me to pause and reflect on how little attention I had paid…

Affirmations For Moving Through Anxiety

When I taught last weekend at This Life Divine we worked with a list of affirmations from my own little library that I have been building and several people have been in touch to ask if I could share, so today I thought I would. Affirmation is fast becoming one of the tools I turn…

A Week of Reflections, Part 1: The Courage to Be Disliked

Hello lovely lovely humans How are we all? My Christmas was the quietest and calmest I can remember. That silence – well, as much silence as you can possibly get in a home that includes 3 children, 3 cats and a Golden Retriever who enjoys nothing more than barking at a stray Wotsit that’s somehow…

The Language of Yoga: ‘What did she just say…?’

Before I get on to ‘talking’ langauge, I wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who came along to my two free classes this week. I enjoyed both classes hugely and can’t wait to be back on the mat with you on Monday (7th September) at 7:00 pm, and Wednesday (9th September) at…

What can you expect in a Kundalini Global class?

I have always loved yoga, but I haven’t always gone to classes. Until I found Kundalini I was often too scared to try. What often held me back from joining classes when I moved around during my earlier years (I moved house roughly 15 times before finally settling where I am now) was that I…

I AM … self reflective? Or self obsessed?

Maybe you are reading this and thinking ‘well, I’m not self obsessed!’ Perhaps the language conjures up images specific to how you perceive extreme vanity – the very well pruned, muscle pumped, tanned and gorgeous man who gazes at himself in the mirror as he lifts weights. It could be anything, really, except, perhaps, yourself.…
