Loving Padraig O'Morain's wry take on our fast-paced, productivity-obsessed society. He's just one of a select few Irish voices on my fav meditation app, "Insight Timer", and someone I regularly recommend to clients who are looking for a starting point for their mindfulness practice.

What a fab weekend it was at the Masters of Calm Yoga Festival on the beautiful isle of Inis Rath: time to play around in the forest (big “holi” face on me and all 😂) and to try out classes in lots of styles from Kundalini to “Buddha Walking” to “Yininstinct” (a new personal fav). Feeling inspired 😊🧘🏼‍♀️🕉

We’re powering through the week, lads. Thursday already! I heard Bank Holidays described as a “false economy” this week - you just end up doing 5 days work in 4 😂 If that’s the case for you and your body is feeling tight and in need of some yoga R&R, come join me tonight in Pure Health, Damastown at 7.15 for an all level vinyasa flow class. From complete beginners to more advanced practitioners, there’ll be loads of options within each pose to suit your level. G’wan you know you want to!
