Will this be the year I get to eat some homegrown figs?
Or will my Possum Friends eat them all?
Only time will tell…
Please note: I am much too lazy to add a net and I love the possums and love to see them living their best lives in my garden so I’m happy to take a chance on this but I am excited to maybe eat some figs 😉

Thank you Awyn Raven for this great goodreads review!
🌱 If anyone has read and enjoyed my book I would really, really appreciate a review 💗
🌿 Your recommendation will help more people find my book, and help it stand out from all the AI generated books out there (especially on amazon!) and I plan to go back and read these when I’m having a ‘feeling insecure about my book’ day 😉
Thanks Awyn Raven this totally made my day 💖

Tune in on Tuesday at 12pm AEST for an Instagram live chat with Jo Jo Stewart and Silky Ashe Wellness

🌿 We’re talking about how the aerial hammock can make the physical, emotional and even spiritual benefits of yoga more accessible to diverse bodies and neurodivergent brains.
Aerial yoga gives us unique ways to work with sensory processing, the vestibular system and the nervous system, but also some unique challenges especially for people who are hyper mobile or have POTS.

🌻 Silky’s mission is to help her fellow spoonies, spicies, bendy baddies and the general population find more energy, peace and relief in your daily life!
As a neurodivergent person living with chronic illness, her teaching is informed by lived experience and a deep respect for the body’s changing needs. She was drawn to aerial yoga for the fluidity and freedom of movement the hammock provides, as well as the soothing, meditative experience of being cocooned.

🌸 Jo has been teaching aerial yoga since 2011 and is the author of Eight Limbs of Aerial Yoga: Adapting Practice for Accessibility, Neurodiversity and Physical Support, published by Singing Dragon and the founder of Garden of Yoga.
She is the founder of Garden of Yoga and is passionate about sharing yoga that helps people feel good in their bodies and grow in their own way.

🌱 Silky has a Beginners Aerial Yoga Workshop coming on Saturday October 10 - if you’ve curious about aerial yoga, or have questions about whether it might be right for you feel free to DM me!
While this is a topic we are both passionate about, we want to make it interesting and relevant for you too!

Look who’s back!
Senior Studio Cat Nagano was back his regular Saturday morning reception shift 😻
He got some pats, took multiple naps, pretty much business as usual.
Thanks to everyone who sent kind words and good vibes as he was going through his multiple health dramas. We are still waiting on a couple of follow up kidney tests but it certainly seems like our guy is loving life and feeling good right now.
Scroll through for some bonus Heart content and more photos of both cats being adorable 😻💗😻

🌿 Plant your Intentions Garden 🌱
Download this FREE creative self care exercise from my book Eight Limbs of Aerial Yoga: Adapting Practice for Accessibility, Neurodiversity and Physical Support. The link is in my bio 💕

This illustration comes from the Brahmacharya section of my book. Brahmacharya is sometimes translated as celibacy but can also be defined as right use of energy. This exercise can help you define your personal code of ethics and clarify where to direct your energy.

I’ve created a loose garden plot where you can plant seeds (intentions) name boundaries (fences) and decide what you want to nurture, water and fertilize in your life.

Feel free to ‘plant’ your intentions in the pots and beds with words or pictures. You can also write in things you are already doing and want to continue to cultivate.

There’s a path, and you can write on the steps if you are working your way towards something.

If there are any ‘weeds’ you want to pull out feel free to name them and designate a bed for the compost heap!

I started out coloring the garden in the background to get in the zone while I was filling out mine and added words to the different sections like a steam of consciousness while I colored. If journaling is not your vibe I highly recommend this process as an alternative!

I hope you find it helpful to cultivate creativity, positivity, mindfulness and purpose 🌱

🌸 When you download the illustration you will be added to my mailing list where I share more about my book and the other things I have going on.

🐉 Eight Limbs of Aerial Yoga is published by Singing Dragon and available at all the major retailers, or ask for it at your local independent book store. Or if you’re local I also have copies for sale at the studio!

The Flow Artists Podcast is on pause.

This would usually be our episode publication day, but we’ve had a lot going on behind the scenes, including the death of Rane’s Dad.

We love recording the podcast and really appreciate everyone who listens and supports us, but it does take a lot of time and energy to schedule, research, record, edit and share each episode.

Keeping a sustainable balance between work, health, creative projects and family life is something we talk about about with many of our guests and we are going to listen to their wise advice to rest when you need to.

We are going to take a break and we look forward to returning in early 2027.
