Box Breathing: a simple reset for busy moments

Box breathing gives your mind something steady to focus on while encouraging your breathing to become slower and more controlled.

Try it:

- Breathe in for 4
- Hold for 4
- Breathe out for 4
- Hold for 4

Repeat for a few rounds, without forcing the breath.

It can be a useful tool when you’re feeling stressed, overwhelmed or simply need a moment to reset and refocus.

A quick safety note: Box breathing includes breath holds and may not be suitable for everyone. If you’re pregnant, have a heart or respiratory condition, or experience dizziness or fainting, avoid the breath holds or check with a healthcare professional first. Always keep your breathing comfortable and stop if you feel unwell.

Save this one to come back to when you need it.

One year of Calm Within Meditation 🌿

A year ago today, I held my first Calm Within Meditation session online.

I started this simply because I wanted to share little moments of respite — somewhere to pause, breathe and feel a little calmer when life feels like a lot.

One year later, this little work in progress has:
•Held 95 online sessions
•Grown into 12 in-person events, welcoming 56 attendees
•Built a growing library of free Spotify meditations
•Reached people across the UK and beyond
•Had 42,000+ Facebook views in the last 28 days

And yes, I still do a little happy dance every time a booking comes through 😂

I'm not perfect and I definitely don't know it all. I'm still learning, experimenting and figuring things out.

But I've experienced pain, overwhelm and those times when your own mind or body just won't give you a break. I think that helps me understand why sometimes you don't need someone telling you to "just relax" — you need practical tools, understanding and somewhere nothing is expected of you.

That's what I want Calm Within Meditation to be.
Still small. Still learning. Still growing.

And incredibly grateful for every single person who's been part of year one. Special thanks to Mum, Nick, Jon and Hayley for all you do to support my dreams.

Here's to year two.

Why do sunsets feel so calming? 🌅

It's not just because they're beautiful.

As daylight fades, your brain receives signals that it's time to begin winding down. At the same time, the ever-changing colours of the sky gently hold your attention without overwhelming it, giving your mind a chance to rest.

If you get the opportunity this week, take five minutes to watch the sunset without distractions. You might be surprised how different you feel afterwards.

Have you got a favourite place to watch the sunset?

📍 Join me in Measham or online for guided meditation, breathwork and EFT tapping. Links in bio.

The birthday celebrations are continuing… so I’m extending the 2 FOR 1! 🎉

Yesterday marked one year since Calm Within began, and I’ve decided to keep the birthday offer going for a little longer.

Until 11pm Sunday 6th September, book one place for Let Go & Re-centre and bring someone with you FREE.

That means two places for £15 + booking fee.

https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/relaxation-evening-let-go-re-centre-release-tension-and-reset-tickets-1985443059638

Come and spend your Sunday evening doing something completely different from scrolling, sorting things for Monday or telling yourself you'll relax once everything else is done.

For an hour, I'll guide you through:

Nervous system regulation

Breathwork

EFT tapping

Guided meditation and deep relaxation

Crystal bowls, Tibetan bowls, gong, chimes and soothing sound

You don't need to know how to meditate.
You don't need to come feeling calm.
And you don't need to come alone.

Just arrive, get comfortable and let me guide the rest.

LET GO & RE-CENTRE
Sunday 13th September
7–8pm | Arrive from 6:45pm
Measham Village Hall
Plenty of parking

2 FOR 1 EXTENDED UNTIL 11PM, 6TH SEPTEMBER

If you've been thinking about trying a Calm Within evening, birthday week seems like a pretty good excuse. 🎉

We often carry stress in our shoulders without even realising it.

When we're feeling overwhelmed, our shoulders tend to creep upwards, our breathing becomes shallower, and our body stays on high alert.

This simple Shoulder Roll & Breath exercise helps interrupt that pattern by combining gentle movement with slow, controlled breathing.

Try it:
• Breathe in as you lift your shoulders.
• Slowly roll them back and down as you breathe out.
• Repeat 5–10 times at your own pace.

It only takes a minute, but it can help:
• Release shoulder and neck tension
• Encourage slower, deeper breathing
• Support nervous system regulation
• Bring your attention back to the present moment

Small, consistent moments of care can make a real difference.

Do you notice yourself holding tension in your shoulders?

If you'd like to learn more simple techniques for calming stress and regulating your nervous system, join one of my online classes or monthly sessions in Measham.

Happy 1st birthday, Calm Within! 🎉

Our minds can become very good at spotting everything that is wrong.

The unfinished jobs.
The things that went badly.
The things we wish were different.

So perhaps we can practise something else too.

Looking for the little moments of beauty.

Not ignoring the difficult things.

Not pretending everything is perfect.

Just reminding ourselves that the difficult things aren't the only things that exist.

🌸 Today, challenge yourself to find three beautiful things — however small.

And if you do, tell me one of them below. 🤍

Calm Within is turning ONE! 🎉

On 4 September last year, I held my very first Calm Within Meditation session.

What started online grew into something I hadn't quite imagined at the time. A few months later, in December, I held my first face-to-face session — so technically, Calm Within Meditation gets two little milestones this year!

September marks one year since it all began, and December will mark one year of bringing Calm Within into the room.

Over that first year, Calm Within Meditation has grown from online meditation sessions into breathwork, nervous system regulation, EFT tapping, sound, free Spotify meditations, face-to-face events and lots more.

So, to celebrate the first birthday, I'm giving away 5 FREE places at my next face-to-face session. 🎁

LET GO & RE-CENTRE
Sunday 13 September | 7–8pm
Measham Village Hall

There are 5 completely free places available, and they're simply first come, first served — no competition, no tagging three friends, no draw to wait for. Use code BIRTHDAY to get your free ticket.

If you've been curious about coming along, haven't tried one of my sessions before, or just really need an hour where somebody else guides you through slowing everything down, this one's for you.

You'll experience a combination of nervous system exercises, breathwork, EFT tapping, meditation and sound immersion, all guided from start to finish.

And genuinely, thank you to everyone who's been part of Calm Within Meditation's first year — whether you've joined a class, come to Measham, listened on Spotify, shared something I've posted or quietly followed along.

Here's to year two. 🥳

If you want to see something specific in my socials, drop me a DM. 🩷

Ever notice how one small thought can turn into an hour of overthinking?

You replay conversations.
Imagine worst-case scenarios.
Think about tomorrow before today has even finished.

When your mind feels busy, your body often stays on high alert too.

This simple EFT tapping routine is designed to help interrupt that cycle, calm your nervous system, and bring you back to the present moment.

You don't have to stop every thought—you just need to remind your body that you're safe right now.

Give it a try and let me know how you feel afterwards.

Comment ONLINE if you'd like to join one of my live EFT tapping classes.

You can also learn more about EFT tapping on my website:

Save this for the next time your mind won't switch off.
