Here’s to taking a rest!!! 😌 I am so hard on

Here’s to taking a rest!!! 😌

I am so hard on myself sometimes for not posting enough on here. I want to make cool videos and share valuable content, but here’s how my days go:

Work at least 8 hours a day on a laptop, barely eat, then get some triathlon training in, then teach yoga.

I am exhausted. Burnt out even.

It’s been like this since December and I’ve had enough.

Why am I telling you this? Well, to highlight that a constant grind mentality is so draining and no way to live.

And because there isn’t enough content on Instagram telling you to do nothing 😂

We’re not good at doing nothing. I’m not good at doing nothing. 😅 I finally have a minute and here I am posting 🙃

Anyway, I’ve booked a week off next week to chill. Zero. Fucking. Guilt. ✌🏼

Hope you take some time this weekend to just be, not always ‘do’ too. 🙏🏻

Happy #IWD everyone! So great to see so many posts

Happy #IWD everyone! So great to see so many posts celebrating strong women, but I think it’s also super important to highlight and challenge the issues that still remain.

Just some of the women’s rights and equality issues I #choosetochallenge are:

Why are female sports prize funds substantially less than men’s?

Why are women still paid less than a man in the same role?

Why is FGM still a thing?

Why have 1 in 3 women experienced domestic or sexual abuse?

Why are women still massively underrepresented on boards and in government?

Nothing changes without challenging these issues, not just today, but every chance we can get.

And thank you to all men who also drive this discussion and agenda forward! We get there faster with your support.

👁👁 Where we look is very important when we’re practicing yoga. Dristi, or point of gaze, refers to where your eyes should softly focus on in each pose. In seated forward folds for example, it’s the toes.

Dristi is a vital component of the science behind what makes yoga work. Pose, gaze and breath (tristhana method) combine to create a calming effect on the brain and nerves.

Yogis believe that dristi works so powerfully to calm the mind because there is a direct anatomical link of cells from the brain to the retina. Your eyes literally grow out from your brain! Which makes perfect design sense, as we can take in visual information quickly and react if necessary. 👀

Alternative to processing various stimuli, which we do a colossal amount of in our daily lives, when we gaze at a relatively still and unchanging point such as the feet/hands with soft but attentive focus, our mind relaxes. 😌

Another good reason to not look at the person next to you in class! 😋

That’s a wild day outside 🌬 so having a go on

That’s a wild day outside 🌬 so having a go on my new balance beam!

It’s a great training tool, not only for balance, but also for proprioception, hip stability and ankle/foot mobility.

Cool story, I actually got this made from an old showjumping pole. 🐎

I was shocked at how expensive these are to buy, (a few hundred for a decent one) for what is essentially an elevated tube!

So I think it’s cool I up-cycled something and it kind of represents my old life in showjumping meeting my new life in yoga 🧘🏼‍♀️

A reminder that you are amazing just as you are, w

A reminder that you are amazing just as you are, without the resolutions, radical overhauls or achievements you make or don’t make.

You are more than all these things. Your inherent value doesn’t come from there.

Sure, set goals if you like, but just keep in mind that you just being here, living, breathing, being, is enough magic of itself.

🪄🔮🧿🙏🏻

Someone came up to me to tell me I shouldn’t be

Someone came up to me to tell me I shouldn’t be running in Vivo barefoot trainers!

There may be a number of reasons you’ve avoided minimalist trainers so far, but my opinion is everyone needs to do some kind of training in them. Or, at least do foot strengthening exercises, or regularly spend time barefoot.

This is especially true for runners! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Even if you don’t compete in minimalist trainers or use them for your long runs, you really should dedicate some training time in them.

Your feet are a huge asset to your running and foot strength is key in reducing risk of injury.
