I made a MISTAKE on this reel!.

After having Good come up first, I incorrectly placed Morning above. But... after taking a moment, I realised the layout offered a beautiful new, simple perspective shift. Not just an early greeting but these words are a suggestion, how can we make our morning...good?.

Never in pursuit of perfection, simply interested in incremental tweaking to improve flow, ease, contentment. Tiny transformations. What could you do to make your morning a good morning?.

Yogis amongst us will have our Sadhana. Intentional practice of stillness, movement, reflection and more. Purposeful pauses. But on the most basic level, we all have the power to nudge our way towards creating more space for ourselves in our lives. Mad eh, that we need to, but the intensity of our world isn't going away so creating sacred time is a must to cultivate.

You know it's coming... meditation, stillness, me time, a breath in the day. You know I'll alwaaays nudge you here. So simple, so incredibly powerful to find yourself each day in your lived experience.

My Friday return to moonsyogaloft has given me a magical morning escape and I'm now popping on an 11.30am-12.30pm slot if any of you fancy making it a morning good with me. Big love, Mx.

Before Christmas, I got to spend the afternoon with one of Ireland's greatest ever rugby players, and utter gentleman, Johnny Sexton sexton_johnny10 . We sat down and chatted all things, meditation, stillness, resilience, recovery, and the power of awareness/ control when it matters most!

It's just so incredible to have someone of his reputation and influence championing the benefits of this amazingly simple, yet widely misunderstood practice. Especially for younger minds, as well as the more tired vintage ones like my own!

My hope for 2025 is that more people realize the power they hold to be still, to regulate, to rest. And that I can help somewhat to demystify some of the preconceived ideas around what meditation actually is and how mindful awareness can support you in your day - whether you're taking an important kick or simply getting the kids out to school without a nervous breakdown ensuing!

Here's to a fantastic year with more people finding their power, the power of creating intentional stillness in their day! Moons x

Thank you to mace_ireland 53six_agency ben.condell for bringing this simple yet incredibly important message - to this normally noisy New Year period.

Love from me and my hat creature monstrosity!.

Hope you're all having a beautiful few days before the work, busy, routine kicks back in. Hopefully this ramble finds you in the interwebs, enjoy this transitionary time and ignore most of the 'should' BS. You're bloody amazing for maintaining life on this precarious planet, bloody amazing. Celebrating not berating ourselves should be the top priority!!.
.
But if you're looking for some shift...Simply take some time to notice how you feel, what you could do in your life to include tiny micro adjustments towards feeling better and then maybe plan to make them happen.
.
Most of the time simply living a bit more on purpose can truly make a huge difference. Big love, Moons x.

New...but old but new. Finally back, in person to my favourite place moonsyogaloft and VERY excited!.
.
Fridays 10am, wriggling and smiling in the sunshine - movement, meditation and life design. A specially curated, themed and lovingly brought to you as an end of week recalibration and a pre- weekend pause.
.
Pause to proceed...on purpose!.
.
6Week Term kicking off Jan 10th.
.
After spending so much time over the last few months/years being in there behind the scenes coaching, teaching privately and recently recording for my new weekly Wellbeing Supplement classes - it's time. It's time to make time for a public class once again and I couldn't be more excited to get back to that potent in person, community connection. Two weeks!!!.

If there was one small tip I could impart for the Christmas period it would be HUM. Hum hum hum hummmmm for yourself and EVERYone!.
.
We know research has shown us that humming can be an incredible stress-reliever...promoting parasympathetic nervous system activation and slowing down sympathetic stress responses. A beautiful vagus nerve love song mmmm.....
.
Why I share? MANYS a stress response will be felt in the body and mind over the coming days so when in doubt - hum it out. Hug (heart2heart) and hum if you can for a double dose of good vibrations! I promise, even if you are not a believer in the esoteric yogic world, you will feel for yourself the effects of this science backed pranyama (breathing technique). It's fantastic for kids and Rua has been doing it unprompted since he was one. These are the basics that I hope we can instill in our lil humans as they grow up in this overly stimulated world.
.
In a comparative study, it even emerged that humming was champion, generating the lowest stress index when compared to physical activity, emotional stress and sleep. Humming = The 🏆.
.
Even if you have sceptically spied this with a roll of your eye. I dare you to give it a try when the stuff hits the fan, and let me know. Go gently, take care and all the love this Christmas Eve. Moons x.

Coming out of my meditation this evening - this truth bubbled up light a warm hug in the darkness. Some solace inspired by Solstice. Meditation itself like a dose of daily darkness where you are at your most susceptible to little light love letters of...inspiration, clarification, compassion and understanding beaming out from the well within.
.
Within this Kaliyug we need to remember this power, our power on an individual level to create the much needed.... light. Within the chaos of our collective times the individuals return to the solace of practice, ritual, expansion of awareness and conscious living will act like a healing Iight in the darkness. It's so dark these days that we need only a spark to light up and awaken vast areas and many hearts.
.
This clip is from my beautiful sacred solo trip to India in November, still integrating, percolating but wanted to share the magical sounds of the jungle and the full moon energy beaming down. Wrap your ears around it and enjoy xxx.

Gach lá! A snapshot in time that was hiding in my drafts and too good not to share! Even though it's probably there so long that this trend has well and truly passed, but haha... I'm ok with not being trendy, we will call it... unique!
.
It gave me a smile and helped me reflect on how amazing we really are to fit so much joy, mayhem, productivity, play, mess into our day and realising yet again how I COULD not exist without my non-negotiable time for me. Call it med, call it space to be, call it whatever you like but if you're not taking time for the snow globe to settle then...this flurry of life will leave you with blurry vision trying to navigate. And believe me, I remember the time before med ...TBM - I was a pretty blurry lost mess a lot of the time. Counterproductively...ironically, running faster to try and find my way to clarity. Sound familiar.
.
Also I didn't mean to go Dr. Seuss on it but hey it ain't no crime to love a rhyme! *Awkward cough* you can find the unfollow button on the home page hahah....Big Love, Mx.

Reflecting on brighter times!! This has been forgotten in the drafts for a while and couldn't, not share.
.
It's amazing what we pack into the day and this is only about 50% of the reality. I honestly don't think I'd get through the day or have enough awareness to maximize my capacity if it wasn't for meditation. Not to say that this is a reason to meditate but ...when you are in the thick of it, when the daily demands are mighty - it is certainly a lifeline like no other. Recalibration, reconnection, realignment, rest!.
.
I do love this little life.

Options, but not too many.
.
Carefully...consciously...curated so that you use your precious time to practice - not peruse.
.
Sick of the scroll? Wellness industry becoming more of an overwhelmness industry? Yep, me too, so I designed a way to deliver some sweet suggestion - saving you from the trial and error trawling of the bewilderness of "wellness".
.
Impactful...ness. Effectiveness. Efficiency. Accessibility. Potency - these were my points of focus.
.
A New Year programme, in a new format!.

Post Election. End of Year. Pre 2025. Now.
.
Come out of the bewilderness of wellness with me.
.
It's always a good time to start taking back your power. I've been working on something that I hope will be a spectacularly special support for you. Clear, helpful, guidance. Doors open next week and the programme starts early Jan to hold you, holding space for yourself... to step into YOUR next chapter.
.
I don't know how to do these things any more. Lame "coming soon" ...big announcement in the works folks, huuuge secret launch countdown...hype curation blugh. Nope. What feels right is saying --« if you are keen to perhaps have me guide you home to yourself and forward into some discovery, power, intentional living - that next week I should be ready to open the doors. I'm excited.
.
A new programme, for every body, accessible no matter where in the world you are, a gift to yourself for the next wonderful chapter ahead. Moons x.

December ... such a magical time of the year; the final step towards the deep restful wintering period we have all been waiting for, a time of cosy jumpers and warm drinks, Christmas sparkling in our eyes and hearts.
.
But between the increased social activity and fluctuating temps I know I need to make a better effort at really supporting my Wellbeing for the next few months. Daily meds - non negotiable, teaming with an infrared sauna when I can - delicious, bed earlier to make up for some later nights - definitely, more fuel as my appetite increases - adapting gracefully, being selective with what I say yes to - empowering, leaning into pyjama days - guilt free.
.
Most of what I work on with coaching clients is simply... accurately adapting to the life in front of them. To the life in front of you. Not the preferred lived experience or how things were - Cultivating increased awareness around how things ARE, how they can be better and how you are going to do it. Simple life design that is ever changing, seasonal, fluid and malleable to the many unknowns that arise.
.
Just some suggestions to ponder on this Sunday. How are you entering into December? What can you introduce, tweak, seek - to support greater wellbeing?.

I get it, it's freezing. The appeal to get out and wander amongst nature is pretty low due to our natural preference for a warm, safe, cost environment but ... we ARE nature... so getting out of our highly technological, synthetic worlds for a little bit every day is going to do incredible things for our bodies naturally intelligent regulatory systems. We wake up, in many ways.
.
Science stuff is great (below), stats and blah but ... I encourage you to simply test it out yourself and notice how it feels when you escape to nature for a while, even if it's a mid-morning walk around the block. YOU know, just like how meditating reminds us of what we know, nature reminds us how to heal. Natural intelligence that is already there, nature hasn't forgotten theirs so it's a great place to remember ours.
.
What can nature do? It can lower blood pressure and stress hormone levels, reduce nervous system arousal, enhance immune system function, increase self awareness, reduce anxiety, and improve your mood.
