Be InSpired

Stories and Insights from the world of Yoga
Written by: | Posted on: | Category:

Dear Friends,

As we transition into 2026, I would like to return to a theme I followed at the beginning of 2025...

"Let go to arrive in the vibrant present moment"

What tools can we learn and apply, to navigate the inner sensory landscape of our bodies, becoming highly conscious and aware of our thoughts, words, feelings and actions in a non-judgemental way?

How can we use these tools on a daily basis to let go of what does not serve us, inviting coherence, balance and strength to our bodies, minds and hearts?

My intention is that these practices will provide valuable resources and tools which you can use on a daily basis to support your body-mind-heart connection.

When: Thursday evenings, online and in-person (17:30 - 18:45)

To join in-person, please email me.

Themes

08.01 - CONNECTING TO THE BODY THROUGH THE BREATH
Focus: Soft somatic movements and gentle massage of the joints to feel our bodies in a kind, compassionate way, arriving in the present moment.
What am I willing to release through recognising, accepting and softening?

15.01 - DESIRE & ACCEPTANCE
Focus: Moving and breathing with ease, observing the pull of desire, landing in acceptance - the role of our spleen & pancreas

29.01 - ANGER & PEACE
Focus: Unwinding with twists & spirals, releasing anger & inviting inner peace - observing our liver & gall bladder

05.02 - GRIEF & LOVE
Focus: The power of coherence & love, releasing grief - observing our heart & small intestine, lungs & large intestine

19.02- FEAR & COURAGE
Focus: Making friends with passive backbending, releasing fear & inviting courage - observing our kidneys and bladder

26.02- MOVING FROM CENTRE
Focus: How can I deepen my relationship to my organs through my practice? We will dive into the energy centers of the body, gently observing our relationship to their respective organs, and how we can support them through sensing, feeling, imaging.

05.03 - BUILDING STRENGTH & SUPPORT
Focus: Aligning the Spine - developing a feeling of strength from the inside, focusing on the deep core postural muscles. Can I consciously use this strength to uplift my mental and emotional well being?

12.03 - CREATING SPACE WITH SIDE BENDS
Focus: Compassion practice through awareness and movement of soft tissue and fascia release

19.03 - COMING HOME TO YOURSELF Focus: Where we place our attention is where our energy flows/goes - connecting the energy of the pelvic root/base, to the heart, to the pineal gland

26.03 - A surprise!!
Softening to the unknown -"I don't know"....how does this really feel when we drop expectations of how a practice might make us feel, and just land in the experience with deep curiosity?

Seva project

In Yoga, SEVA (Say-va) is a Sanskrit word for service - how can we serve others and give back to society. Through my yoga practice and teaching, I aim to give back to my childhood community in a small and meaningful way. Since I grew up in South Africa, this is where my heart lies in an attempt to empower young children in the Lidgetton community where it is often challenging to have hope and see the light. Our small Angel Ruth’s Soup Kitchen is a space where the children can go for a warm meal, as well as to a space where they know they are safe and cared for, can play freely and learn.

I offer a percentage of my teaching earnings back into this community, knowing that is is well used and goes directly to the source. To support the growing needs in the Lidgetton community, we set-up Lucky Beans e.V. in Germany in 2015. Through our charity status we are able to offer the possibility of EU citizens receiving a tax reclamation from any donation you may wish to make.
