Rest, Relax, Revive with Linda

By the time Monday evening rolls around, do you feel like the busyness of the day is done, but the rest of the week is still waiting?

Between the school runs, the endless mental load, and keeping everything else afloat, it is so easy to lose touch with yourself.

I have two spots that have just opened up for my Monday night in-person yoga classes at St Leonard’s in Penwortham.

This isn't just yoga; it’s an opportunity to set down the "to do" of the week, find some quiet, and reconnect with your own inner stillness.

I have two spots that have just become available for my Monday night in-person yoga classes at St Leonard’s in Penwortham.

If you are looking for a moment to step back from the demands of the day, return to your own inner stillness, and find the clarity you need to navigate the rest of your week, this is a space to breathe, settle, and find your centre in a calm, welcoming environment.

Details:
🗓 Every Monday evening
⏰ 6:30PM – 8:00 PM
📍 St Leonard’s, Penwortham

Spaces are limited. If you’d like to join us, please comment below or send me a message, and I will send the booking details over to you.

I look forward to seeing you there.

Nature doesn't apologize for being unruly. Sometimes, we let things grow wild for years—habits, roles, and expectations—until they are tangled against the very foundation of our lives.

Watching Pete dig out this overgrown patch, I was reminded that this is exactly how we often live. We become deeply rooted in the "wrong things," and we lose our way back to our inner sanctuary.

But it’s never too late to start the clearing process.

I’m sharing a bit of my own process today—and a simple tool to help you begin clearing your own garden.

Read the full musing here:

Nature doesn't apologize for being unruly, and neither should you when it's time to clear out the habits that no longer serve you.

How fab is this voucher that Wilson created for a raffle prize 😍

Absolute honour to award Jamie Marvill the Man of the Match trophy at yesterday's match.

I think man of the day would be a better way to put it. This day was for Jamie and his family and what a brilliant turn out from the local football community.

£4300 was raised yesterday which is an incredible amount and North West Community Stars Football Club thank you all so much .

Preston North End Football Club Captain Ben Whiteman who was in attendance kindly donated a signed PNE shirt so can we give one final push to add to the amount raised and ask if anyone would like to bid for this top .

Bidding for this will close on Wednesday at 5pm and the shirt will go to the highest bidder so if you would like to make a bid or you know of someone who would then please bid on in the comments below .

Your support matters.

We Rise By Lifting Others.

Thanks to Colin Armstrong Armstrong photography for the wonderful photos

𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤 𝙫𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙤 𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙙𝙚𝙣𝙘𝙚, 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙠 𝙜𝙤𝙤𝙙𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨—this was 1981... 🦆🛼

​This week on the blog, I'm sharing a spectacular childhood blunder involving my dog, some local ducks, and a village bus to talk about something we all face: how to handle those moments when our adult choices leave us feeling completely off-track and exhausted.
​If you need a laugh and a gentle way to reset your nervous system before your head hits the pillow tonight, have a read. 👇

How an 11-year-old roller-skating mishap taught me about self-grace, and how we can stop the "mental whip" when life gets overwhelming.

Wonder if anyone will notice if I sit and meditate 🥰

Over the last 30 years, I have often been told I am not like the other teachers that people have been to, not sure it is always a compliment!

What I do know is that I keep it real and have been known to challenge some of the "woo woo" teachers. We live in 21st century England, ain't no need for some of those things that have crept in to yoga classes and have been accepted as the norm, when in fact they were just something that was necessary at the time.

I wonder if in years to come people will think you have to have little headphones on to meditate because that is what everyone did on Zoom during covid??🤔
