Back home after an awesome road trip in the Highlands....🏴󠁧󠁒󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Yoga very much needed as vanlife is proving very difficult to keep my normal practice going....so some much needed hip and shoulder opener with my "go to" just for me! I am contemplating a vanlife yoga series as space is an issue and if you hit bad weather (Scotland! πŸ΄σ §σ ’σ ³σ £σ ΄σ ΏπŸ˜…) then going outside is not an option I chose! So you have to adapt....however yoga on my mat in my home space is just so good with all my props and my doggy around me...πŸ™πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ’•

I snuck a conker photo in too as autumn is very much much here now in Devon we left in our shorts and came back in winter coats! 🀣

Finally view on socks with yoga?? im not normally a fan but seen as I stayed on the floor today the socks stayed on!
Love a nice pair of long socks these days and I dont care if they go with my yoga pants or not! 😜

Keep moving yogis no matter where you are πŸ‘‹πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ₯Άβ„οΈπŸ•πŸ–

What you do on the grimest of grim days in Devon! Make another blackberry, apple AND pear crumble....
Dairy free, no sugar, no gluten! 😜

Apples from me old mucker garden, pears from a lovely local who left outside their house freebys from their garden and blackberries picked by my good self on walkies this morning!

Not much time left now folks for delicious wholesome blackberry picking...full of natural nutrients....

Make the most πŸ•πŸ™πŸšΆβ€β™€οΈ

Sadly Hugo did not share my enthusiasm due to having to wait for mom! 🀣

Autumn is coming, the season is changing, how are you preparing?

We prepare our gardens, our cars, our caravans, motorhomes, houses, but how do we prepare ourselves for this change from yang season to calming yin?

In Chinese medicine three are 5 seasons...late summer being the extra one to help you transition from yang to yin and keep balance and grounding, clear out summer anxiety and built up toxins.

Currently practicing earth element Qigong in my garden barefoot for grounding...and photos are just a few of our late summer activities over last few weeks during our van life...

Things to do to help you transition...

Outdoor Qigong!
Calming outdoor off the mat grounding yoga.
Grounding barefoot walking.
Mindful walking looking at the trees changing colour.
Sea dips and river dips grounding, boosting the immune system clearing the mind and making the most of the warm water.
These are my favourites what are yours??

Maybe a video or 2 coming...if I can get round to it around all my late summer activities! πŸ˜ŠπŸ™πŸ•πŸ€£

Ahhh time to take a break and enjoy the summer! (assuming the rain does not decide to stay now for a while I know we need it but.... πŸ˜…)

Im taking a break from regular classes to focus on me and my boys for a while, our campervan has finally arrivedπŸ˜ƒ accompanied by some health challenges...πŸ€”oh universe....😳

So I know I need my own practice with no thoughts of "hmmm could this work in a class!" Curse of a yoga teacher it seems!
I can also finish the last bits of my Beyond Mind meditation course and continue reading wonderful wisdom from late zenmaster
As well as going to wonderful places on this amazing planet!
This then will send me on the right path to whats next...

Please keep an eye on my pageπŸ™ as I plan to do random classes and maybe a mini retreat in late summer....but we shall see what comes up for me.. and once I know the answers I will let you know, as well as sharing some of my fave poses and thoughts...maybe in some wondrous locations!

Much gratitude to my regulars who give me so much energy...keep moving and breathing and being mindful...πŸ™πŸͺ·πŸ’•πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ”₯
Enjoy the rest of the season of fire and yang with much peace and love entwinedπŸ™
