Not all yoga teaching language is neutral. Some of it carries the weight of systems we didn’t consciously choose.

Here are my 7 favourite yoga poses for female hormone health to support the perimenopause, helping to calm the nervous system, and restore balance in midlife.

We may be overlooking the most essential thing we need: to listen. And not just to others, but to our own bodies.

Autumn, with its golden hues and quiet shedding of nature’s bounty, offers a powerful metaphor for one of the core teachings of yoga: Aparigraha.

In our quest for happiness, we often forget that life is inherently about balance.

Letting go is about learning how to say no and noticing, in real-time, what we don’t like or need — and then stopping it before discomfort sets in.

It’s the autumn harvest season here in the UK. It’s a time historically marked by celebration and community and is a reminder of the natural cycles that govern life. Just as the earth moves through its seasons, we too are cyclical beings—yet in today’s fast-paced, capitalist world, we often find ourselves disconnected from these rhythms. Now, as the leaves turn and the air cools, it’s the perfect time to consider how we can live more in sync with nature’s cycles.

The day had come for me to demo an arm-balance pose, and it went south. Head smashing into the ground kinda south.
