Enjoy this 22 Minute Long Yoga Nidra is a guided meditation that uses a systematic method of inducing complete physical, mental and emotional relaxation.

It is also highly beneficial and holds great healing power for anyone who wants to experience a deeper sense of peace and re-connect more profoundly with themselves. The practice of Yoga Nidra leads us into a state of harmonious, restful being. From here, we can heal, restore and awaken to our true, blissful and eternal Self. This sublime practice is gaining popularity all over the world as more and more people experience its healing powers while ongoing research continues to prove its effectiveness.

Yoga Nidra literally means yogic sleep. It is an ancient technique where the practitioner enters the deep states of conscious relaxation. It is a systematic practice of moving awareness from our external world to the inner world.

It brings us to a state of deep sleep where our senses, intellect, and mind relax. We become free from the concepts of time, space and reason. When this happens, brain activity reduces and the body goes in the healing state. Therefore, it is also said that one hour of yoga Nidra can give the same benefit of a four-hour sleep. As the body enters a healing state, you can clear up the toxins at a cellular level, refresh the mind and remove baggage from the subconscious.

A Blessingway is a healing ceremony rooted in Navajo tradition (Native American). A Blessingway or Mothers Blessing is a spiritual ceremony designed to bring support/ nourishment, protect the home + even bless a pregnancy. A modern Blessingway has become a popular alternative to the traditional baby shower, that prepares a woman for transition to motherhood, rather than focusing on gifts for the baby.

A Blessingway is a time for the mother-to-be to gather with the women closest to her, toward the end of her pregnancy, + cultivate positive energy for her upcoming birth experience. They are becoming increasing popular in the West.They are all about nurturing + connecting heart to heart with the mother. Filling her cup so it overflows with love + confidence as she awaits the impending birth of her baby. She’s so much more than a vessel to bring a baby into this world. She’s going on a journey from maiden to mother.

Blessingway Ceremonies are used to create a sacred rite of passage around the end of one phase of life, into the new phase. This ceremony could be held for so many different phases such as time of first menstruation, loss of a loved one, divorce, journey into menopause etc.. We hope this gives you some inspiration.

One in seven new mothers will be diagnosed with post natal depression (excluding undiagnosed cases). A woman who is nourished, nurtured and given lots of love has more love to give in return, to her baby, her loved ones, and the world as a whole. There’s nothing like a circle of loving women to get that delicious hormone, oxytocin, (the hormone of labor, but also love and bonding) flowing!It’s time to give some back to mothers and make a difference. Consider ditching the baby shower for a blessingway (or have both if you want!).

Historically, a blessingway is an old Navajo (native American) ceremony, which celebrates a woman’s rite of passage into motherhood. The westernised version of this is the ‘Mother Blessing.’

JOIN US as we walk you through everything you need to know to plan + host a beautiful ceremony.

We feel ceremonies are such a wonderful way to bring in support, nourishment + live a heart centered life. If you would be interested in us hosting your sacred ceremony please reach out to us. We would be honoured.

Today is themed around Womens Health. We want to help empower as many women as possible to connect + honour their bodies. Discovering the power within our bodies, the natural cycles in rhythm with the moon, power of coming together as women + so much more. There is so much we can do if we struggle with any feminine health problems, fertility issues, deep fatigue...

We chat about Cycle Awareness, the exciting new revolution in women's health + wellbeing. A foundational practice for awakening essential self care, reducing stress + easing or healing menstrual health problems. We chat about how we can actually plan our month a little more productively in line with when we will have the most energy + creativity. Do you know when your best time to manifest is? When to be most actionable with your dreams?

Things we cover:

Cycle Awareness / Menstrual Mapping

Unlearning

Manifesting through your cycle

Letting Go

Womb Wisdom/ Womb Yoga

Connection to Nature

Natural Cycles VS Synthetic Cycles e.g. from the pill.

Menarchy, Motherhood, Menopause...

Fertility

Self Love / Releasing Shame

Menstrual Cycle Awareness (MCA) :

This is a self-help technique much like mindfulness, in that it enables you to look more objectively at what you are experiencing depending on the day of your cycle. E.G., after practicing MCA, you may decide to not exercise near menstruation, say no more + not feel bad about it, or decide to intentionally do more creative fun things in the middle of your cycle . MCA aids the ability for you to enjoy deep rest + be at your most productive, it can help with diet, exercise+ relaxation, reduce the pressures you may feel, help you to become more confident, + be more accepting of who you are.

Today we are talking all things loss! We are all going to experience some type of loss at some point in life. Whether that is you loosing a loved one, or going through a big transition such as the loss of a business, miscarriage, big money loss, a loss of a close relationship, a pet etc.. Loss + Grief are two of the rawest emotions that strip you back to what it is to be human, live a life of meaning + turning from darkness into light.

Death + Rebirth is a natural part of life we have to accept. We need to focus on this moment now + how we can enjoy life to the the full. Those we loose or difficult situations we face will always be apart of us + guide us. They would want us to continue + step into love + joy. Loss can often inspire us to reinvent ourselves. Acceptance that your not in that role anymore + you start to shed the layers of yourself you no longer need. We discuss accepting where your at as well as the power of gratitude, presence + resilience.

Whatever you go through some top tips we feel are essential:

  • MOVEMENT - act of shaking
  • NATURE Therapy
  • Importance of Ceremony
  • Building Resilience
  • Presence + Breathwork
  • Somatic Practice/ Cold Water Therapy
  • Community
  • Acceptance + Surrender
  • Stages of Grief
  • Debriefing / Coaching through Loss

We are constantly evolving + changing. Don't fear death it is a natural part of life.

A honest + real chat we talk to actress Paula Lane about the ups + downs of life. Coronation Street star Paula has been on our screens for years, having starred in some of our favourite ITV shows.

Originally from Hebden Bridge in Yorkshire, at the age of 19 she was accepted to train at the prestigious Central School of Speech + Drama in London.

In 2008, she then graduated 2008 with a 1st class honours degree in acting before starting her career. We absolutely loved hearing about her journey through the ups + downs of life.

What we discuss:

  • Life as an Actress
  • Daily Rituals
  • Gratitude + Acceptance
  • Big Transition
  • Loss: Holding your loved ones closely
  • Confidence
  • Creating Boundaries
  • Pregnancy + KG Hypnobirthing
  • Motherhood
  • Imposter Syndrome
  • Instagram VS Reality
  • Power of Community

The actress is best known for playing the tragic Kylie Platt + caused havoc on the cobbles for six years, from 2010 to 2016. Paula left Corrie to focus on her family + she was killed off tragically on the show when she was 8.5 months pregnant preparing for a home birth. She now has two kids + balancing life with acting as well as running an acting agency. More recently she has got into theatre productions such as Kinky Boots, Quality Street and more.

Follow Paula on Instagram for inspiration.

Today we talk all things Change + Reinventing ourselves.

We love this topic talking about evolving + adapting through the ups and downs of life. Like the seasons we are constantly changing + going through cycles. We are one with nature. In nature, we can observe self-reinvention happening all the time. Animals hibernate, flowers begin to blossom, seasons change, + snakes shed their old skin when it is time to grow a new one. All of these processes are indicators of our natural need for change + evolution. It is the force that prompts us to let go of the past, step outside our comfort zone, + move forward into the future.

Are you feeling stuck? Are you ready to welcome change as we transition towards spring? Do you ever find yourself questioning who you are/your purpose? Do you daydream about doing something completely different?

Things we discuss:

  • Embracing Change
  • The power of saying NO
  • Self Discovery
  • Surrender VS Control
  • Our natural cycles
  • Sadhana- Daily Rituals
  • Self Belief

Lets go build up the best version of yourself! In turn, this enables you to lead a healthier, happier life!

Saying No is one of the most important happiness skills out there + has been key to honouring our cycles in life. We are taught from birth that to be 'good' is to be compliant + society pushes us to keep busy saying yes to everything through life. But its time to step into your power, conserve your energy + create boundaries. Everything you say NO to means your saying YES to something else. Whether thats a yes to a chilled night in, time with family, time for yourself or yes to prioritising your health, You deserve not to be busy all the time and learn to say NO. Remember, thats what time is...Its your life, + you can never get it back.

Change is inevitable in life. Life is uncertain + we need to learn to surf the waves. Re-inventing ourselves is a journey of self discovery. Whether your goals involve a new career, moving to the countryside, or learning to love yourself, self-reinvention is a quintessential part of life. It is also a lifelong journey.

"If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change." WAYNE DYER

What if being lucky wasn’t just by chance but a skill that you could master?Creating more luck could be linked to being more open + present in everyday life. Opportunity is always surrounding us we just need to look up off our screens + not miss it! You never know who you might run into in your local coffee shop, sat next to you on a plane or passing in the street etc... Look up more!Know the person next to you might be a future friend, lover, business partner etc… or they might share some wisdom that might change your direction in life.“Most of us think that luck just happens (or doesn’t) but everyone can learn to look for the unexpected + find serendipity” Christian Busch Studies suggest that around 50% of major scientific breakthroughs emerge as the result of accidents or coincidences. E.G., Antibiotics – one of Alexander Fleming’s Petri dishes accidentally become contaminated + grown a mould that led to the discovery of penicillin. Many of the world’s most successful people credit serendipity for a large part of their success. Cultivating serendipity is first about looking at the world with open eyes + seeing opportunities others don’t. It’s not just about being in the right place at the right time + having something happen to us (blind luck), but rather a process in which we can be actively involved.We discuss:•.What is serendipity + how to cultivate more of it in our lives• The need to look up more + really see• Positive Mindset• Take hard situations in life as ways to Grow. • Serendipity Mindset • Mercury Retrograde + The effects• Working alongside your Monthly Cycles Mercury RetrogradeThe turbulence + disruption Mercury creates when it retrogrades can affect what we feel on Earth in our everyday lives. It can happen a few times a year + brings everything to the surface which we can learn from. The universe often feels like it hits us with loads of challenges at once. We all go through hardships but know you will feel better in time. You need to put practices + daily rituals in place to ground you. Moon CyclesYou have times in your cycle when your more open to opportunity + growth. In an average 28/30 day menstrual / moon cycle we go through the 4 seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn + Winter. We talk about the most powerful days to attune to your serendipity mindset such as Spring + Summer (during ovulation stage of menstrual cycle) The new moon is about new beginnings+ manifesting + is a good time for serendipity.

Is Stress good for us? Are you building resilience in your daily routines?

Are you one of the 80% who have dysfunctional breathing patterns?

We dive deep into conversation with Kevin O’Neil who is the founder of Breatheolution. He has helped thousands of clients through breathwork, cold exposure therapy + self discovery.

Frequent exposure is linked to so many physical health benefits. But we are interested by how much in fact it helps us mentally with building resilience within. Kevin has helped thousands to overcome anxiety, trauma + addiction.

Today we are going to dive deep into talking on the breath, child to adult development through breath, dealing with anxiety, the importance of nose breathing + so much more. We even do 2 breathing exercises coached by Kevin such as the anchor breath. Breathing is vital to life but learn to breathe right and you can unlock greater levels of fitness and health than you ever imagined possible.

“Breathing is far more than just breathing, it is life force to body and mind!”

Did you know that some stress is good for us!

It can help us mentally build up resilience to our external environment when we start to find comfort in the things we once found uncomfortable. In order to build resilience we need to step outside of our warm comfort zones + stress the body. Through facing the stress such as the cold you will face your shadow, inner vulnerability + face the trauma. Kevin teaches us how important it is to understand our biochemistry.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!

Covering Trauma | Addiction | Loss | Depression

Your breath can help you defeat your own stressors.

Kevin talks us through trauma + how it is connected to physical stressors + specific environmental factors that are unique to you. Your breath was present during your trauma, even if you were holding it at the time which is very common. And the best way to face trauma is to arouse what put it there in the first place, reconnect to these environmental factors involved at the time. Often talking about the past is not enough. We need to feel more into our bodies!

Changing your biochemistry through the breath + the cold can change the acidity of your blood in a few minutes. Such a fascinating topic!!

How to have a calm and balanced pregnancy and birth experience?

We begin by addressing the fear surrounding birth in our society. There is no wonder so many are scared to birth with all what is in the media, films, books and the horror stories we hear from friends or strangers in the supermarket! Birth has become overmedicalized and feared across the globe. In this episode we are changing the narrative around birth. This episode looks at the conversation we have around birth, breaking down the culture of fear. Birth should be a calm and enjoyable experience for all women but we are being let down by the system. We dive deep into how to prepare yourself for your birth experience.

April Wild is a hypnobirthing practitioner, doula, pre/postnatal yoga teacher and facilitator of monthly circles for pregnant woman. Her knowledge and passion led her to become a birth worker and she is so inspired to offer women education to make informed choices and create better birth outcomes. April has experienced three of the calmest births even being a high risk pregnancy with a rare heart condition in a home and hospital setting. April shares her top tips and tools for birth in this episode.

“Women are designed to birth naturally. We don’t overthink how we grow our babies for 9 months…it just happens. Well birth is no different if we learn the techniques to quieten the mind and soften the body, it just flows. Your body will know what to do when we just allow birth to unfold as it should.”

In this episode Claire Cooper also shares about her experiences being pregnant and her past birth experience including talks on a gentle caesarean. Claire is so passionate about us having the best support possible and talks about how important it is to choose your birth space and do all your research on the lead up to your babies birth.

Birth is like a marathon. You would not want to turn up to it just 'winging' it or it would be super painful. You have to train and prepare your body and mind.

Join us for an inspiring, reassuring conversation from the heart full of wisdom, learning and ideas to help navigate forward to your birth.
