to help you feel more relaxed
& less stressed.

26/10/2026

Imagine: arriving into a warm, cozy space filled with blankets, pillows, yoga mats and gentle candlelight..🕯️ Somewhere you can finally relax, exhale, release tension from your day and let go of any need to control, change, think and plan, somewhere where you can just feel soft and supported..
How does it sound?? 💛

An invitation for you to slow down, move gently, and reconnect with your body and your breath.

Two hours just for you, without distractions.
🧘
We’ll explore a slow, nourishing yin yoga practice, with some deep, juicy stretches, grounding breath and a guided yoga nidra meditation, we’ll create more space for stillness, surrender and a deeper connection with yourself, tending to what you need.

We’ll also share some cacao together ☕️ and open our hearts to the
space of less doing
and more being.
You deserve it darling !!

This is something so simple but it really works and is sooo soothing for the nervous system 💛 if you also get easily overwhelmed and maybe are going through some waves of emotions now- I hope this can bring you some comfort 🤗

It’s nice to be learning about different healing tools but it’s even better when we actually put them into practice and see what works for our bodies.
(because we are so different of course)

What makes you feel more supported when you feel sad ?
What makes your heart a bit warmer?
What makes you feel just a little more comfortable when your mind is going crazy ?
What physical object makes you more grounded ?

Theres so many beautiful ways of nourishing yourself when you lean into the art of listening to the body and making space to just feel.

What are some of your favourite ways?? 🩵

The way we breathe shapes the way we feel, think, move and experience life.
Breath is Life!!
and yet so many of us rarely breathe with awareness…
so often the breath is too fast, too shallow, too stressed, and just out of balance..

That’s why I’m sharing this workshop with you.
To learn how we can use breath to help us shift the inner state, how to move from tension into more ease,
from anxiety into more calm, from laziness and sleepiness into more energy. 💛

For me breath is always a reminder of coming back to the present moment.
It’s helped me massively when I used to have anxiety attacks and in so much overwhelm.
It’s also helping me every morning when I feel so slow and unmotivated- to bring me more energy and activation and strength 🌞 it is powerful.

This journey is an invitation to RECONNECT with the transformative power of your BREATH and experience the inne expansion that happens when you connect to that Prana- Life force within. ✨🧘
to come into the state of deeper connection & aliveness !

So happy to be back with our weekly classes! 🧘 🙌
Autumn is almost here and it can be a beautiful invitation to slow down and reconnect with your body, to breathe deeply, release the tension of the day, and make time just for yourself. 🍁

Join me every Tuesday at 5:30pm at Ullet Road Church for a gentle yet energising Hatha yoga class with some elements of somatics & mobility.

Each session includes:
• mindful movement (asana)
• simple pranayama (breath connection)
• deeply relaxing meditation
• nervous system healing tools — to bring more peace into your daily life

This is not just about stretching your body…
It’s about creating SPACE within yourself —
releasing tension, reconnecting with your inner sensations,
and gently awakening your energy, coming back to balance in body and mind 💛

One of the things I hear most often after the class is:
“This is exactly what I needed today” — especially after a long day of sitting or working…

You don’t need to be flexible or experienced to start. Just come as you are 🤍
You are welcome here.

📆 Every Tuesday 5:30pm (start: 1.09)

I always felt that need, that longing to just go away, explore more, experience different cultures, people and landscapes…

I lived in so many places, and so often I still feel like I don’t belong, like I don’t really know what my place on Earth is.
(I guess a lot of us feel like that sometimes?)

But somehow, one “thing” always feels more familiar…
and of course it’s Nature.
💚
Wherever I am, nature always feels like Home. so welcoming.

The quiet and the space in the forest.
The way trees make me feel so small.
The sounds of birds on a morning walk.
The grounding energy and stability of the mountains.
The calming force and rhythm of ocean waves.
The way the Earth holds me...

It’s so, so precious.
Everywhere.

It’s like she’s always telling me:
You are held and supported here. 💕
You are not alone.
You’re breathing. You’re Alive.
You are being guided all along the way…

Her beauty and wisdom always reminds me of the beauty and wisdom within my own heart,
and the beauty within us all.

That special, raw, primal connection.

The essence of life that we can experience when we make time to slow down and listen to her.

Thank you so much Ash | Ritual Portraiture + Somatic Mentorship for our forest adventures, and creating such a beautiful, safe space for this connection.
🌳🙏

The wilderness, rawness, softness and power of nature will always inspire what I share through my Yoga as well. I hope you can feel it ! 🦋 and I hope that through our practices, you can reconnect with that ancient wisdom within and remember that natural essence that’s living through you.

can’t wait to get back to more classes from the next week! sunny blessings ✨

🧘 Outdoor Yoga Sessions This Summer ! 🌞

With the warmer weather arriving , it’s the perfect time to step outside, move your body, breathe fresh air, and reconnect with nature. 🌱
Summer is a wonderful reminder to celebrate Life, enjoy the sunshine, celebrate our bodies, and create moments of calm and connection with Mama Earth. 🌳☀️

I’m offering 1:1 and small group yoga sessions outdoors throughout the summer:
— in the park (Newsham/ Sefton/ or Calderstones)
— or, if you prefer a little more privacy, in your own backyard. 🌸

These gentle, personalised sessions are a beautiful way to support your mental and physical health, stay active, release tension from the body, and create more space for Peace.

If you’ve been wanting to try yoga, deepen your practice, or simply enjoy movement in the fresh air, feel free to send me a message over here or comment “yoga” and I’ll get back to you..
(You can also check my Instagram )

I’d love to share those special sessions with you 🌱✨ Yoga outside really does feel different!

“Why not” is a poem/ love note to myself and humanity that suddenly came to me during meditation a few weeks ago….
It was right after Easter, I was just alone at my family home and during those days I was really connecting to Christ Consciousness, the miracle of Life, to God’s presence and Divine Love…
I feel like these words and simple questions were like a blessing from the Divine.

Like a loving reminder.
Coming back to simplicity.

At first I didn’t really want to share it and thought it’s too boring and too simple and doesn’t even rhyme haha, but the more I practice living from the heart, the more I realise how much we need to come back to these simple values of kindness and compassion towards each other and towards ourselves- if we really want to make a difference in this world.

So why not hmmm 😉
Why not ?

What happens when you start BREATHING WITH AWARENESS?
Everything changes.
From the tension you’re holding in your body
to the way you think and perceive the world.

The way we breathe really matters.
There’s lots of breathing techniques that are great for calming the nervous system and grounding the mind but also the ones activating the body, 🌞 🔥
activating the PRANA (life force energy within), and bringing in more blood flow.

Honestly sometimes the breath works so much better than coffee. And it’s so much more sustainable.

🌱 If you’re curious about learning more about the breath and how to use it to:
* energise your body naturally
* shift your inner states (from stress/anxiety/overwhelm info more ease, from tiredness into more activation)
* access deeper states of awareness
* remove inner blockages
* soothe the nervous system

I invite you for my next Pranayama Workshop “Breath of Life” at Planet Yoga Liverpool
•31st of May,
•12-2 pm
•guided by Maria

This workshop is a blend of pranayama techniques, kriyas, somatic yoga and meditation- all to bring you towards more Peace. 🙏 More info and tickets here:

I’ve been exploring the power of breath for over 10 years now and so happy to share that with you. 🙌 ✨

How often in your day do you think you breathe with awareness ??
