I would like to invite you to a weekend of DEEP REST.

Reclaiming rest is not only vital for our health and wellbeing it is revolutionary as an action in response to the exhaustive force of grind culture.

My upcoming urban immersion is an opportunity to spend 3 days luxuriating in yogic rest practices such as Lunar Hatha, Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra .

Let's release and recharge our systems together so we can access the connection and inspiration that unfolds only when we are truly rested.

(30hr YA accredited for all existing Yoga teachers towards The Bridge School 300hr Training )

Returning to a calm and easeful presence is not only the foundation of traditional Yoga practice but is essential for our wellbeing.

The Bridge Podcast

A space where we share conversations bridging mind-body science with the wisdom traditions of Yoga and Ta**ra

As therapists, teachers and passionate learners & I know and share what is now understood about supporting the body, mind and breath for health and wellbeing.

And yet, the mystery of being an embodied, living being pulls us towards Yoga and Ta**ra to sit with questions regarding how to live our own unique existence.

This podcast is the space where we share our personal experience, speak from our fields of Integrative Physiotherapy + Psychology and are humbled by what seems unknowable.

Previously called wavelength, we are thankful for the 1000s of people who have listened to our conversations over the last 4 years and to all those who are joining us, as we move forward with The Bridge Podcast.

Find us on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

This is a photo of me teaching my first yoga class 13 years ago!

At this time in my life I was living in LA supporting my partner who had a work opportunity there.

I couldn’t work as a physio because re registering in the US is a nightmare.

My father had just passed away suddenly and I was holding so much grief without really having the skills to process much of it.

In this moment of pain and uncertainty I finally had space to do a yoga teacher training after 10 years of practice.

I learned so much about the postures, techniques and system of yoga, but more than that I had space to learn about myself. I saw all the ways my resilience kept me stuck. I began to let go of controlling. I wholeheartedly embraced what was here in this moment and learned to not take myself so damn seriously.

13 years later and perhaps I have been shaped by sharing Yoga as much as practicing everyday. Holding space for others to embrace their authentic self truly gives the deepest meaning to my life.

I hope I will be sharing these practices until my final breaths.

I have to laugh at the girl in this photo though. So eager to share in a way that inspired others. Her inner perfectionist wanting everything to be absolutely perfect. I was so excited and nervous to share my first class that I shared my sequence too quickly and finished class 20 min early 🤦🏽‍♀️ I was mortified, but from that very first class this path has been teaching me to relax and let go. No one in class cared. We all laughed it off.

The more real I am … the more real and impactful my classes are. 13 years later that feels more true than ever .

We live in an information age where we can be exposed to horrifying content from around the world instantly.

In moments when we are exposed to such events through our online platforms we often don’t consent to what we see and we can feel stuck between wanting to be informed and wanting to look away.

I have personally been feeling this over the last few days while watching war unfolding through my screen.

My years of working in trauma informed spaces have taught me about the importance of considering our own capacity and distress when hearing stories of others’ suffering.

If you have been exposed to graphic or distressing content here are some resources that could be supportive.

It is always advisable to seek professional support proactively or to help you safely process and content that you are consuming.

This weekend I am running a 2 day immersion called BEYOND REST

This time is an opportunity to be cocooned in practices for deep release, grounding and restoration.

We will practice lunar hatha, restorative yoga, grounding breath-work and yoga nidra and unpack the science behind how this yogic technology supports our stimulated and complex modern lives.

Hope it may align for you to join me Estuary Yoga
