3 WEEKS TO GO | 3 SPACES LEFT 🍂

September brings a subtle shift that many of us feel before we can even articulate it: the end of summer, shifting routines, shorter days, and an unexpected disruption to our nervous system. If you find yourself feeling burnt out, anxious, or overwhelmed at this time of year, your body isn’t failing you, it’s simply responding to the change in season.

If you’ve been on the fence about joining us at Samye Ling Buddhist Monastery for our Seasonal Transition Retreat (Sept 11th–13th), this is your official sign.

We have 3 SPACES REMAINING to keep this experience intimate, and we are closing bookings shortly to finalise room arrangements.

If logistics have been holding you back, I’ve taken care of them:

🚗 “I don’t have a car”
I have 2 spaces in my personal car! If transport is a barrier, I can give you a lift (first come, first served).

🏠 “The website says rooms are sold out”
Do not worry! Samye Ling has held a private block of rooms just for our retreat starting at £35/night (including all vegetarian meals), which isn’t listed on their public site.

🧠 “I’m burnt out / not flexible”
This weekend isn’t about physical flexibility or performance.
It’s built on my 10+ years in Mental Health and Social Care to help you settle your nervous system, shift stagnant energy, and build the internal resilience needed for the colder months ahead.

The Details:
🗓 Sept 11–13
📍 Samye Ling Monastery, Eskdalemuir, Scotland
💰 £150 total tuition (£40 deposit secures your spot)

Comment the word “AUTUMN” or click the link in my bio to claim one of the last spots. Let’s enter the darker months feeling grounded, steady, and energised. ✨

A late post about my wonderful time at Muma Moonshine Festival 🌙

I was invited to run a yoga session at Muma Moonshine Fest in Carlisle a couple of weekends ago, and it was way better than I ever imagined.

What a weekend!
It was pretty much needed. Even though I taught a yoga class, this weekend was all about taking a step back, resting, spending much needed time in nature, soaking in the warmth and energy from the sun, swim in the river, listen and watch great artists and meet amazing people.

Muma moonshine festival is a small, not for profit collectively run music festival, run as a labour of love by and for women, non-binary and LGBTQIA+ people.

Thank you, Muma Moonshine Festival for the invitation and especially for the amazing and safe atmosphere you create. It was just what the doctor ordered!

I am already really looking forward to next year! ♥️

🍂 Anchoring for Autumn: A Seasonal Transition Yoga Retreat 🍂

If your soul is craving a deep, restorative pause before the seasons shift, this is your sign to find your anchor. After a beautiful, fully booked retreat in April, we are returning to the peaceful grounds of Samye Ling this September.

As we transition from the high energy of summer into the introspective quiet of autumn, it’s easy to feel a bit ungrounded or preemptively heavy about the darker months ahead.

Anchoring for Autumn is designed to be a soft landing place for your mind, body and soul. Together, we will use yoga, journaling and reflection to soothe the nervous system, release stagnant energy, and build resilience against the winter blues.

This retreat is created for you if you want to:
✨ Transition into autumn feeling deeply grounded, energised, and present.
✨ Gently shift stagnant seasonal energy (we’ve added an extra movement session to the programme this time!).
✨ Find a safe, inclusive community space where you can truly come home to yourself.

April sold out quickly. Only 5 spaces left now for September.

*Reposting this as some of the photos were pixelated*

Saturday at was something truly special ✨

I kicked things off by diving into the deep end with Live & Kicking bootcamp.
Between the sweat, the laughs, and flipping tractor tyres 🚜💪🏽, I was struck by the incredible energy in the air.
It’s rare to find a space that feels like home five minutes after walking in, but this community is clearly built on genuine support and hard work.

We transitioned from that high-octane grit straight into our very first Yoga session. Moving from the “power” of the bootcamp to the “presence” of the mat felt so natural.
It was a brilliant reminder that we can be both strong and soft, resilient and rested.

A massive thank you to everyone who joined me🧘🏽‍♀️✨and to for inviting me to be part of the family. I feel so grateful for the opportunity ♥️ and I look forward to running a lot more of these sessions 🕉️

Also a special thank you to for the incredible photos 📸
