Conscious Living

It’s taken most of my life to realise that I have all the tools to support myself. Better now than never ⁉️

I was constantly striving, looking outside for the answers, not aware of how my actions impacted me physically, mentally, emotionally and energetically 💥

The past few years I’ve been on my own journey of discovery and transformation and have learnt that I can mother myself 🫶

Btw, this is not to say I don’t have an incredible mother - I do (scroll right to see her) 💚

Some of my tools to mother myself 👇🏼

✨Clarity of my purpose
✨Dog walks on the beach
✨Time in nature
✨QT with my boys (hubby included)
✨Teaching yoga
✨Practicing yoga
✨Being with community
✨Cold dips in the ocean
✨Salt baths (very hot)
✨Eating good food
✨Sleeping

And I could go on and on and on but I won’t 🌈

is here to help you awaken your power so you too can mother yourself because you can 👌🏻

From discomfort to ease to FREEDOM 💃🏻

Learning a new practice is not smooth sailing ⛵️

It can be 👇🏼

✨awkward
✨uncomfortable
✨embarrassing
✨frustrating

But, if you can sprinkle it with a bit of instant forgiveness there’s a big chance to move through the discomfort and experience joy, pleasure and even freedom 🫶

Stop holding back. Give yourself a chance to fail, to be clumsy, to experience awkwardness and then offer yourself some compassion and a dose of forgiveness. You may discover a new passion along the way💥

INSTANT FORGIVENESS ❣

I pulled and offered a ‘connection’ question and I could feel the energy of the class really take it in. The question was this:

✨What’s your biggest regret in life? And, what did you learn from it? ✨

My biggest regret is so clear and, yet, it’s also something I’ve tried to ignore. At the root of my biggest regret is the fact that I couldn’t forgive myself - even though this event happened decades ago. I’ve held on to that regret so deeply that it’s created more blockages than necessary 🚧

The practice of yoga teaches us to relax into the moment, especially the hard, challenging, and often, painful, moments, in order to release the trauma that’s stored as blocked energy. Relax into the pain, fear, sorrow, guilt, shame (or whatever else is showing up) so you can release the weight of it. Relaxing into it is like your own offering of forgivenenss👼

And, the amazing thing is that in doing so, you open up to the beauty of this moment, your biggest regret in life, being one of your best teachers🦉

So this week, on the mat (and off), I challenge you to practice instant forgiveness . If you can practice it in the day to day events, you’ll eventually be able to apply it to the bigger regrets in life💪

🤸DO THE WORK🤸

Yoga is more than a physical practice of postures🧘‍♀️

🌈Yoga asana (ie postures) just helps us awaken the power of the mind, which starts with awareness. From that awareness you get to choose your narrative.

Is your narrative👇🏼

😩Ugh, another chair! How long is she going to hold me here? I hate chair. My legs hurt.... blah blah blah’

Or, is it:

🤩’Wow, how fab that I get to do another chair and feel my body. This is strong and I can feel my legs tingly. How wild that my body can do this work!!’

👉Join us this week (and always) to do the work of becoming conscious observers of the mind. Sitting with the higher self and releasing the lower self, all the junk the mind creates (ie reactions, labels, preferences, stories)💯

This is the real yoga practice‼️

✨Classes have been FULL so make sure to save your spaces in advance

I don’t believe there are any coincidences. People appear and things happen exactly as they are meant and when the time is right 💚

Reconnecting with .antonio.vescio is synchronicity at its best 🙌🏻

I developed a holistic well-being programme over the past few years, tested out parts of it with different clients and have been wanting to get it out there, but time never seemed to be on my side ⏰

And then, like magic 🪄 Johan got back in touch and put his trust in me to lead him on a transformative wellbeing journey with the aim to:

✨achieve balance in daily life
✨build mental strength and clarity
✨deepen relationships
✨feel good

FYI, this is on top of launching a new business ‼️

I’m so impressed when people prioritise their wellbeing because it is the foundation to living a fully awakened life. To be able to support someone on their journey is truly a privilege 🫶

Journalling is a practice I very often resist ✍️

But, every once in a while, I feel compelled to get pen to paper to process some SH*T that needs to come out. Stuff that can’t be processed on the mat nor in meditation🧘‍♀️

Such was the case, yesterday. So, after a lot of phaff to get myself organised, I sat and I wrote 🖊️

Things came out that I expected and also some things unexpected. Feelings and emotions became clear. Anger and sadness, but also some compassion started to emerge 💚

I just kept writing and writing … and in fact, I still feel a need for more to get out on paper 📝

Like anything else, this is a practice. And very often, the practice we resist is exactly what is needed to process, understand and heal ❤️‍🩹

👉Do you journal?

There are no coincidences. This week’s theme PERFECTLY IMPERFECT was meant to be and I embodied it fully this morning 😳

I could have sworn that I asked someone else to sub for Soul Elemental class. Clearly, I didn’t even notice the weekly class schedule that said my name ‼️

So, we had a studio full of yogis ready to practice with no teacher because I was in Comporta 😱

My heart sank and I felt my stomach drop💔

And then I got this picture of our amazing community, who still rolled out their mats and practiced together🧘‍♀️

This is what we are all about ❣️

Huge thanks to all for understanding that even teachers and studio owners are still just people and we too are perfectly imperfect 💚

And an extra special shout out to gorgeous who stepped up and led everyone through a little flow 🫶

I’m back and am DEFINITELY teaching Soil Power tomorrow at 9am. Click the🔗in my bio to register ☄️

YOGA IS A WAY OF LIFE🧘‍♀️

Life, like your practice, and you, is perfectly imperfect ❣️

I used to think that 👇🏼

✨I needed to practice at least an hour to get anything out of it
✨The practice had to be super strong and challenging for it to be worth it
✨Savasana was a waste of time
✨Wobbles were UNACCEPTABLE on the mat
✨Nailing perfect postures was the goal

And there were loads of other ridiculous ‘beliefs’ about yoga, my practice and myself, but over the 25 years of practicing I’ve learnt that none of this is true 💫

Yoga is here to teach you about yourself ‼️

🌟Roll out your mat and keep rolling out your mat
🌟Become aware of what comes up
🌟Notice the thoughts you have
🌟Observe how it feels to move, to breathe and to listen
🌟Embrace the imperfections on the mat

And then, take all these learnings off the mat and AWAKEN TO YOUR POWER ☄️

is here to help you. Come join our community and get ready to awaken to your full potential 🫶

Leon 🇪🇸we love you !

An unexpected stop and well worth it for the food culture and amazing old city… even the tree lined campsite🌳

Pioneering in Potes and the Picos 🏞️

Our expected coastal route thru Asturias and Galicia took a different turn 🧭

⛰️ The mountains called to us … or just children comments about our route and our plans !!! So, we stopped, listened and re-routed thru Picos de Europa and it’s been well worth it for all

🏕️An amazing campsite with mountains all around and a cool staging town a quick walk

🥾New hiking shoes in an attempt to make walking enjoyable for 3 boys (yes T too!!)

🧗‍♂️New boots came in handy for our canyoning expedition with another one planned already

🏞️A flat walk thru the lower Picos is on the agenda today

🚐 This van gets moving to Riona, highly recommended by our amazing canyoning guide Edu who got what our boys are looking to for 👀 lakes and jet skis !!!

Our big take-away 💚 we’ve got so much FREEDOM to create the holiday and life of our dreams. Sometimes what we plan isn’t what is needed or wanted. And that’s when we can change it up !!!

Happy 16th Anniversary ⭐️

Restoring in La Rioja with the essentials ⬇️

Family, food, fun times and VINO 🍷

Our tour took us through Briones and the Vivanco Museum, on to Elciego where we dined at Hotel Marques de Riscal and on to LaGuardia and beyond ….

Ending with an amazing sunset in full sight from our campsight 🌅

Here’s to 130 journeys on your mat and many more 🥇

You’re an amazing human being with a whole lot of SOUL 💚

Soulstice is lucky to have you in our community and I feel so privileged to be your friend 👯

Meditation is my non-negotiable‼️

⌛️I started a sitting practice 6 years ago - at a time when I was lost, unhappy and not in touch my true self with myself at all

😠I didn’t really like it - I certainly didn’t like being with the whirlwind of thoughts (and a lot of judgement) in my head

🤯I kept at it because observing my ‘craziness’ seemed better than how I was feeling at that time

💪🏻Little did I know the vast impact that this commitment to myself would make

⭐️Reflecting on my journey to NOW I am amazed how much I’ve grown and evolved with the support of this practice. The strength and courage to do what I’ve done is definitely connected to time spent being still.

✨Left a well paid job I was deeply unhappy doing
✨Left a promising career in an industry I worked in for 20 years
✨Launched a business in a completely new field
✨Began teaching yoga
✨Moved countries with my family
✨Started an online community
✨Opened an underground home yoga studio
✨Built an in person yoga community
✨Ran my 1st retreat
✨Have a roster of retreats coming up
✨Healed a deep sorrow I’ve been carrying for 25 years
✨Questioned the belief system I raised with to create my own
✨Awakening to MY power spiritually
✨And so much more…

Transformation is available for all of us ! We just need the tools to help us open our eyes to what is possible.

Meditation is one of these tools🧘‍♀️

Teacher, Teacher 👩‍🏫

✨The art of teaching is not an easy thing to do.

☀️It’s vulnerable to put myself out there on a daily basis to hold space, instruct and guide people into what (I hope) will be a powerful experience

😨Today the anxiety was present right from the moment I woke (after not the best night sleep anyways)!!

🌅And then it was just one of those mornings - a fly buzzing around me during my meditation. A triggering moment w one son! I tripped walking out the door. Dixie decided to run off during our walk….

🛟This is life though. And as a teacher I need to choose what I bring into the studio, our shared space to practice. That doesn’t mean ignoring it. Rather acknowledging and then bringing myself into presence to teach…

💚The beauty is that when I did, my teaching also became my practice. Shifting me from the stuff outside our sacred space to be in the moment, in presence, in flow.

🧘‍♀️So today, this practice of teaching yoga was my sanctuary and I am reminded again of the depth and simplicity of this practice of YOGA

‼️And now it’s off for school pick up, making dinner, doing errands and admin. That real life stuff 🤣

Dance like no one is watching 💃🏻

👍Yup, I did that on my recent Living the Elements training with

👉fyi, join Marina Tuesdays at 9am for Soul Elemental

😎Blindfolded, the music started and all we needed to do was dance. It was incredible - first to observe my awkwardness and then to feel the beat of the music in my bones, helping me let go of judgement, insecurity, embarrassment to truly experience the freedom of dancing with no one watching. Embodiment in action!

👀This week let’s PRACTICE LIKE NO ONE IS WATCHING ! Be in your body. Feel each movement. Experience each posture and each transition. Embrace the practice in it’s entirety and honour YOUR body.

Roll out your mat with us and let’s see what you can be up to 🙌🏻
