Humble Warrior Yoga

28/05/2026

I had such a lovely few days off work with my favourite humans, it always feels like such a treat to slow down and take things in and in that heat we definitely slowed down.

I've always been guilty of saying I don't have time for this and that ( and yes I sometimes still do ) but honestly what's the worst that can happen if the washing doesn't get done or you don't do all the jobs?

This is also why I rarely practice yoga longer than 15 or 20 minutes, that's all you need to make a difference and it reduces the guilt of taking some time for me - not that I should ever feel guilty about that.

You don’t need a 6 week plan.

You need 5 minutes and something that actually works.

If you’re tired, stressed, running on empty
and your body feels like it’s fighting you - This is for you.

I send short, simple emails with things you can actually do.

No hour-long routines
No life overhaul
No guilt when you don’t have time

Just support that fits into your real life.

You’re not tired because you’re doing too much.
You’re tired because your body never gets a break.

Fresh air. Movement. Space to think.

This is what your body is asking for.

It doesn’t have to be a full day.

We jumped on a train, wandered, and came home different.

Try this:
• Go somewhere with a view
• Walk without rushing
• Look up, not down

Small shifts like this help regulate your nervous system, which supports your hormones, mood, and energy.

You don’t need more willpower.
You need more moments like this.
Save this for when you feel overwhelmed.

Went to Hardwick Hall for a “nice day out”.

Straight into the hall…
tapestries everywhere…
kids immediately put their best slapped arse faces on 😂
“How long is this going to take?”, " This is boring" etc ..... you know the drill.

Nothing like being judged in a historic building 😂
I’m there pretending to read about 16th century wall hangings while internally trying to calculate how long I can hold my s**t together.

Midlife, in case you’re wondering, is:
• craving peace
• managing moods
• and pretending you’re enjoying tapestries under pressure

Anyway.
We leave the hall…
walk outside…
and suddenly there are lambs.

White ones. Black ones. Tiny ones.

Same kids.
Completely different personalities.
Delighted. Obsessed. Living their best lives.

So the takeaway is this:

Forget personal growth.
Forget meditation.
What you actually need…

is a field of lambs.

Sorted 👍

Epic walk earlier this week before work got in the way 😂

I've lived in Belper for 21 years now and I still have to pinch myself because I can walk out of my door and there's so much beauty ( and quirky animals ) right on my doorstep.

If you're into nature, walks and some yoga too then get yourself on my mailing list as there's something rather special in the works you won't want to miss 😉

You can find the link in my bio or just comment "LIST" and I'll send the link your way 💕

We went on a little adventure today to Thor's Cave.

What started as “let’s just go for a nice walk” turned into a proper climb… steep paths, lots of steps, and a few moments where my legs were definitely questioning my life choices. 😅

But the weather was beautiful, the views were incredible, and the company… well… let’s just say there may have been a few cheeky bum grabs along the way… and more than a few stops for kisses. 💛

By the time we reached the cave we were a bit out of breath (for several reasons), but standing up there looking out over the valley felt pretty magical.

Fresh air, a bit of a challenge, and time with someone who makes even the uphill bits fun.

I say this all the time and that's because it's true - finding ways to nurture and regulate your nervous system is going to make all the difference in midlife to literally every aspect of life.

Days like this are my favourite. ✨

During perimenopause and menopause, our stress response can become more sensitive.

Natural sounds like birdsong and running water signal safety to the nervous system.

Safety reduces cortisol.

Lower cortisol = better sleep, mood, and clarity.

This is why I weave breathwork and grounding into everything I teach and why there's nothing a good walk in nature can't improve 🌳

Struggling with a bit of hip pain today ( I'm sure the perimenopausal ladies know this pain ) so we had just a 5 mile walk up to Bessalone woods and Nether Heage.
There's something magical about being in the woods just listening to the birds chattering away and even better to share it with a kindred spirit.
I'm seriously lucky to have such beautiful places to walk without even getting in the car.

As we step into 2026, I want to gently remind you of this:

You don’t need to reinvent yourself.
You don’t need to hustle your way into a “better” version.
And you definitely don’t need to punish your body or mind to be worthy of change.

This year, I’m choosing movement that feels good,
a mindset rooted in compassion,
and a little magick - the kind that comes from listening to your intuition and honouring where you are right now.

If you’re making intentions or resolutions, let them be empowering, kind, and spacious.
Let them support your nervous system.
Let them work with your life, not against it.
Midlife isn’t a problem to fix.
It’s a powerful threshold.
And you get to cross it in your own time, in your own way.

Here’s to a year of steadiness, softness, strength, and subtle transformation 💪 🥰

✨️Happy New Year ✨️
