Panchakarma is the greatest gift of Ayurveda to humanity.
It is the process of deep cleansing, rebalancing and reset on a cellular level that is the cornerstone of a healthy and long life.
As an Ayurvedic health coach and therapist,
I have been in association with one of the best Panchakarma centres in India for the last decade and have arranged for many many people’s stays and deep healing.
(You are welcome to contact me for details).

But for most folks this might not be possible, so I offer an annual home cleanse which can be done in the comfort of your own home and rhythm.

A regular seasonal cleansing is essential for our health.
My next one is coming up
23 ~ 29 September
A seven day Spring Ayurvedic home cleanse,
plus a few days preparation and integration before and after.

As most of us know by now, our digestion and assimilation is the cornerstone on our health.
In this upcoming online home cleanse I will be supporting and offering daily guidance around how to rest and reset your digestive system in a way that is gentle, nourishing and rebalancing without a sense of deprivation.
I approach this whole process in a way that is deeply healing.
Imagine never giving your home a thorough spring clean or never taking your car for a major service.
There is a residual buildup of toxins which makes the whole system sluggish and not functioning well.

Seasonal cleansing is the Ayurvedic secret of longevity.

After just 7 days, you will feel so much better,
having given yourself the biggest gift of self care.

23 ~ 29 September
in the comfort of your own home
while also able to attend to your daily responsibilities.

The day begins slowly as the moon recedes down from her arc in the skies.
We gather together in the beautiful space
to pandiculate (a combination of stretching and yawning like a cat, which helps wake up your central nervous system and get you ready to move).
Breath by breath we roll and rock side to side, pushing down through our feet to reach out through our spines and head.
Lolling about.
Enacting our fundamental early movement patterns and fluidic bodies.
It feels so natural, as though our movements are designed around these patterns ~ as they are.

Doing what I love doing best ~ teaching.

I am reminded of a line in Mary Oliver’s poem:

‘You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves’

I glance at one of the students and realize I last taught her about 40 ~ 45 years ago! And it strikes me, wow that’s a whole lot of classes. At times teaching 5 per day.
I do not recall a class I didn’t enjoy teaching ~ I might have been tired, depleted even, in grief at times
and even so, each and every class has been something I love to do and so it flows like a river ~ never stepping into the same place twice.
I am hugely grateful for this gift in my life.
Still deeply satisfying.

Gratitude to Sue Cooper for the opportunity of teaching the embodied practices on her wonderful retreats ✨🙏🏼💫💛

Come into rhythm with the seasons, with an Ayurvedic cleanse 🌱
Spring is the perfect time to shift any accumulated heaviness that has crept in over the winter months.
Ayurvedic cleansing approaches this transition in a gentle nourishing way, giving our digestive system an opportunity to rest and recover from being overburdened.

With a light supportive touch, I guide you through 7 days of restoring your digestive system and preparing you for a light flow in harmony with the vitality of the summer months 💫

This online offering can be done in the comfort of your own home while attending to your daily responsibilities.

It is a gentle, highly effective and really doable process that is supported by group.

Drop me a message if this is something you are needing and want to shine from the inside out 💛
As always, my honour 🙏🏼

The inbreath arises like the swell, from the pause
The movement takes form out of the stillness

05/08/2026

Your breath is the thread that ties your subtle, layered, energetic matrix to your physical form ~ your body.
If the breath is taken away, this connection dissolves and the body ceases to exist.

The breath and deep healing.
When exploring the Essential breath,
our system shifts from a protective, fight | flight response to a
parasympathetic rest and digest response.
In order for any healing to be activated, we need to feel safe to invite our natural healing intelligence to come to the fore.

How does this the shift occur?

Firstly through slow deep breathing (especially long exhales) which stimulates the vagus nerve.

The vagus nerve signals the brainstem that you are safe.
Which activates a
Neurotransmitter Release ~
The brain releases acetylcholine, a chemical that slows down body processes.
Your heart rate drops within seconds.
Your blood pressure lowers ~ blood vessels dilate, easing blood flow.
Digestion Resumes ~ the blood moves back to your gut, increasing saliva and stomach activity.
And your muscles relax ~ tensions in the jaw, shoulders, and pelvic floor releases.

And the natural healing intelligence has space to weave its magic.

We will also be exploring that which blocks and inhibits the full and free flow of your breath.

Join us to explore this further
Essential Breath
Saturday 15 August
2 ~ 4.30pm

Everyone welcome 🙏🏼

In the Vedic tradition of yoga and Ayurveda,
Soma is the divine lunar nectar of peace, nourishment, and immortality.
This cooling energy peaks during the full moon, when Soma is believed to be most abundant and potent, offering a time for reflection, healing, and spiritual renewal.

This Divine Nectar essence ~ Amrita ~
Soma represents a subtle, life-giving essence that nourishes both mind and spirit, contrasting with the fiery, active solar energy (Agni) of the solar forces ~ the sun ☀️

Bathe in the opalescent rays of the full moon 🌕
