✨We are proud to host Fingal next month at Pause. Fingal’s workshop is about Emotional Yoga: learn how to manipulate your breath so you can stretch your emotional body and keep it flexible. You will also be able to use this technique to clear out emotional residue and buildup.

✨Emotional PPE - how to stay safe in the face of extreme emotion, from other people and yourself.
✨Embodied Imagination - learn how to get your body to respond to your mind, not the other way around.

Fingal Po***ck has enjoyed a professional career in theatre that has so far spanned 22 years and four continents. An international director, she has had successful seasons in Edinburgh, Berlin and all-over New Zealand. With a penchant for the balance between raucous and insightful, she has staged many side-splitting comedies that also deal with deep and visceral truth. She has bought several NZ classics to the international stage and her hit comedy show, Femme Natale, recently went to the Edinburgh Festival and received 5-star reviews as well as comments such as ‘genius’, ‘clever and hilarious’ and ‘the funniest show of my fringe’.

Since moving back to New Zealand, Fingal Po***ck has worked as an actor to help train many people-facing professionals including the Royal College of GPs, The Royal NZ Police College, The Psychology School of Massey University, The Pharmaceutical Society of New Zealand, Christchurch International Airport, WorkSafe and the Otago Medical School. In addition, she has worked with many professional artists and companies including Wētā Workshop, Clown Doctors NZ, Little Dog Barking, Circa Theatre, Toi Whakaari, The Improvisors and CluedUp. She has directed many large scale as well as intimate shows that have toured New Zealand and abroad. Previously in New Zealand she produced and assistant directed the multi-award winning Albert Speer.

✨Hack your cognitive and emotional resilience with Mindfulness & HRV training (Heart rate variability)✨

Hacking your overall health relies on small, actionable changes to your daily environment, physical habits and psychological responses.

HRV serves as a primary biological marker of an individual’s self-regulatory capacity. In patients diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), ADHD, OCD, SUD (Substance Use Disorder) and more, resting HRV is typically significantly reduced. This indicates a state of autonomic dysregulation, where the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight) dominates, and the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest) is suppressed.

Lower HRV reflects a rigid nervous system that struggles to adapt dynamically to stressors, mirroring the rigid, repetitive thinking patterns of overthinking and rumination, making us feel stuck in one gear.

Emerging neuroscience research is now showing that there is a clear link between mindfulness training and an increase in HRV.

Every time you show up in your yoga practice, you effectively rewire your nervous system, create new neural pathways in your prefrontal cortex (linked to increase HRV + emotion regulation and executive functioning) and you enhance your vagal tone. You make connections between different parts of your autonomic nervous system (ANS) hyper efficient and super responsive. Highly vagally mediated HRV is also positively correlated with increased self-compassion and reduced depressive relapse rates.

In other words, for a greater sense of well-being, please make sure you incorporate practices that increase your HRV in your wellness routines. Yoga, mindfulness, sauna-ing, a cold shower in the morning, good nutrition and good sleep 💛

✨🐢🏝️ Caledonia retreat update ✨🏝️🐢

We had an incredible time in Caledonia at the fabulous DoubleTree by Hilton Noumea
We saw plenty of turtles, ate beautifully and did plenty of yoga. Thank you Margaux Promenade Tours and chef Raihere and team for going beyond and above to make our group feel super welcome 🙏🏽🫶🏼✨ We are all super duper grateful. Thank you to all the amazing yogis who participated in this retreat, how lucky were we to create all these special memories together ✨

We decompressed, we recalibrated and recharged, we learnt some good tools, we awakened and integrated all the benefits of a slower pace and a much needed reset for our nervous systems.

Info packs for our 5 night Bali retreat in Ubud are coming up soon, twin-share starting at NZD $2,399 per person (we are thinking 18-23 November 2026 or 29-3 June 2027). We will announce the next Caledonia retreat dates soon too (we are looking at end of August or September 2027) ✨🏝️ Stay tuned
