Take it slow π’ that's my theme for this week. Evidence shows that slowing down your breathing has all kinds of amazing benefits. Why not give it a go? It doesn't need to be a fancy pranayama practice to get the benefits. BTW this is today's actual sunrise from my attic π π #justbreathe #pranayama #whitleybay #sunrise
This week I want to encourage you to be a bit kinder to yourself, especially if you're finding January a never-ending slog. Think of yourself as a cat (assuming you like them - this is not a good analogy if you don't!). It's OK to want blankets and naps and gentle stroking.This is Tig. If you don't stroke him just right he will scratch your face off. π Be more Tig! #yogacats #yogacatsofinstagram
My theme this week is to focus on being in the present moment. A great grounding exercise to help you do that is to deliberately notice what your senses are telling you about your current environment. What can you see, hear, touch, smell or taste? #beingpresent #beherenow #justbe #grounding #groundingtechniques
Today felt like a reward for preserving through the tractors and the sandflies and the school trips. Just an absolutely perfect morning to be on the beach ππ #beachyoga #cullerfornia #Cullercoats
Congratulations to everyone, including my partner Peter (purple vest and 80s fluoro socks), who did the Great North Run today. By all accounts it was brutal - hot and humid, then thunder and flash floods! You earned that medal today! π Thanks to redhel_runs_26.2 for the pic. If you've made it home and need a stretch out I've got a short post-run yoga video free on YouTube here https://youtu.be/XV0SMod0zuA?si=FlaLWRrQ9J1bkmMv #greatnorthrun #yoga #yogaforrunners #gnr
This week we had to contend with the beach cleaning tractor right next to us. If nothing else it was an exercise in letting go of the things we can't control π€· And it was clearing the seaweed so no sandflies π #BeachYoga
I love teaching beach yoga. Part of the fun is never knowing quite what to expect. One week we got rained on, another week we were overrun by a school trip. This week we had to clear seaweed to make space and contend with sandflies! Other days it is the most perfect summers day πThanks so much to all my students who embrace the ups and downs with good humour π
Sunday regular and allotment enthusiast Elaine brought in some of her glut of rhubarb to share. Tonight we've been enjoying a tasty rhubarb crumble - thanks Elaine ππ
Wow! That was so worth the early start π Thanks so much to everyone who braved the 4am start for this morning's sunrise yoga. I would love to see your pics too - please tag me! And we raised Β£173.52 for @cullercoats_rnli too π Happy solstice! #cullercoats #beachyoga #solsticesunrise #summersolstice #yoga #ourwhitleybay
