The sh*t they don’t tell you…. BEFORE you get pregnant!
This blog has been brewing in my brain for some time…. about 9 months, since that’s how old my son, Bodhi is now. When you’re expecting a baby — probably more so when it’s your first child — there’s so much info and advice headed your way. Stuff like: “your life will never be the…

Wisdom from the Womb
I recently had a miscarriage. It was the most intimate and painful experience in my life (and my husband’s — he was right there with me). It was so sad. So sad. Despite the pain, the sadness, the loss there were lots of lessons… and you definitely don’t have to have had a miscarriage for…

Time to congratulate
A few weeks ago, for the first time in ages, I was home alone (with the dog)…. it was an interesting couple of days! I’d just taught my first workshop in about 9 months, on a subject that is very dear to my heart — therapeutic back bending… I’ve suffered from back pain including disc…

I rocked up to University halls in North London, fresh faced and sh*tting myself…

I’m not being lazy — I’m hibernating.
For someone who is driven, likes to achieve, learn new things and make stuff happen, November and December were difficult months…. until I tapped into the Winter Solstice. At the beginning of November, I completely left the corporate world. I went from a very well-paid job, to an exciting trip across india…. And then, the…

YOGA WORKSHOP 26&27 JAN
Sensuality is Not a Dirty Word Very often we deal with immensely powerful energy — sexual energy in one of two ways; we either suppress it for fear of being taken over by it; or we act it out resulting often in promiscuity and betrayal. This Forrest Yoga workshop gets you connected to your…
