I hope you are taking some time for self care ❤️⁣
⁣
Space to chill, rest & reflect to nourish ourselves
⁣
What are you dreaming of and how can you takes steps to make that a reality? For me it's having more down time and exploring new craft activities. I recently did pottery throwing and loved it
⁣
Do these self care suggestions resonate with you? Let me know which one(s) you are up for?

I think we've probably all had a walk in the rain lately but most likely haven't enjoyed it!

Are you looking to explore somewhere new?

Most importantly, don't forget that you are awesome
Have a great day
Ann

Insight Timer - #1 Free Meditation App for Sleep, Relaxation & More

This one is a relaxing body scan meditation and designed to destress & ground you in the present, supported by the earth

Finding time to just be and to meditate is especially important to anchor and centre me whenever I feel a bit frazzled, unsure or overwhelmed

I hope this benefits you too 💕

Have a peaceful day⁣

Hip openers are great because they can prevent hip issues and help fix them
⁣
Problem: Tight or weak hip muscles can mean you have a smaller range of motion, less stability, poor posture or pain⁣
⁣
A solution: Stretch and strengthen your hip muscles with hip opening exercises⁣

𝗕𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗳𝗶𝘁𝘀⁣
🌟become a stronger, more flexible you⁣
🌟improve your body alignment & balance⁣
🌟boost your circulation⁣
🌟reduce your risk of injury⁣
🌟lower pain in the hips and back⁣
⁣
This head to knee pose also stretches out the hamstrings and groin. It's a good one for the runners amongst us plus it can also be enjoyed in a more restorative version to calm a busy mind

One of my favourites, particularly for noticing the difference between how it feels on each side of the body

I love this line from Judith Hanson Lasater’s ‘𝘈 𝘠𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘓𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘠𝘰𝘨𝘢’ and use her thoughts for the day as well as my own in many of my classes⁣
⁣
We can forget that yoga is not just a string of exercises. Instead it’s more of a path of self discovery as we unearth sensations and knowledge about our physical bodies, but perhaps more importantly our mental state, strengths, weaknesses, personality traits etc⁣
⁣
We might find ourselves in class being judgemental of others, or criticising ourselves and not listening to or respecting our bodies ⁣
⁣
Let’s make each movement a mindful one and discover our true state⁣
⁣
Yoga is psychology, do you agree?
⁣

I offer online & in person yoga and meditation - classes, 1:1 & for the workplace, DM for details

What a great intention to work on liking yourself a little bit more and caring a little bit less what others think, say or do

I took this saying from an old post & popped it into my own design. Action for Happiness have daily inspiration and I include their motivational calendars in my newsletters & FB group

Have a great day

Yoga off the mat …. ⁣
⁣
Yoga encourages me to pause & listen a little more to how I am feeling, what I can do to find a little more ease, what my heart needs 💜 ⁣
⁣
I find myself checking in, doing a little scan of what’s up multiple times a day⁣
⁣
Often it’s rest and sometimes life get’s in the way of that so it gets put on hold until after I’ve done this or that⁣
⁣
Does this resonate with you? How do you manage shoulds, musts & wants? ⁣
⁣
Take a moment - what are you needing right now? Comment yes if it’s a cup of tea ☕️ (my cure all!)

Find your tribe who boost you, make you smile, bring out the best in you⁣

𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴, “𝗟𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘆!”⁣
- 𝗥𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗻 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗺𝘀 (𝟭𝟵𝟱𝟭–𝟮𝟬𝟭𝟰)⁣
⁣
Today marks the astronomical beginning of the spring season in the Northern Hemisphere with the length of day and night nearly equal in all parts of the world ⁣
⁣
🌼 How about getting outside & looking around…⁣
⁣
🐦 Birds are migrating northward, following the path of the sun. We’ve had several murmurations of starlings here just recently as the little critters gather before heading off. ⁣
The increasing sunlight also inspires birds to sing ⁣
⁣
☀️Can you feel the sun getting stronger? ⁣
Both we & the animals around us can discard our heavy coats (maybe keep them on standby just in case it’s freezing again in another week!)⁣
⁣
🪴The first day of spring is a traditional time to start in the garden. I’m not a great gardener but I don’t mind pruning and planting and certainly love to sit in it ⁣
⁣
🥬 Also are you craving fresh foods after a long winter? Perhaps try some new recipes using seasonal produce⁣
I love making & baking
⁣
Come & sample some after Yoga class soon

Online classes also available - DM for details
⁣
How will you spend the first days of spring? ⁣

Do 10% less & see how much happier you feel⁣
⁣
50% ? ⁣
80% ? ⁣
⁣
I hope you find time to just be today
⁣
But what about when we are at work, have deadlines, are already behind, have the house to clean, meals to shop for & prepare…🤯⁣
⁣
Can you take just 10 minutes? ⁣
⁣
Do you feel guilty abandoning chores? Are you a slave to your to do list?⁣
⁣
Is the idea of doing 10% less scary or wonderful? ⁣
⁣
I try & carve out a little me time each day. It doesn’t always happen but when it does I am such an all round happier person⁣
⁣
I still like my to do list but sometimes have to put that aside for my health & sanity ⁣
⁣
