For a long time, moisturising my face was something I did quickly. A step to tick off before moving on to the next thing. But over the years, I’ve come to realise that this small daily moment holds so much potential for care, presence and regulation. Now, it’s one of the simplest ways I slow myself down. Applying my face moisturiser has become a ritual, especially when I bring my gua sha or face roller into the mix. These tools don’t just support the skin, they invite me to p

January often arrives with a loud message of “new year, new you”. There is an unspoken pressure to decide who you will be, what you will change and how you will transform yourself, all within the first few days of the year. But what if this time of year did not require reinvention.What if it simply invited gentle orientation. January can feel tender. The festivities have passed, the pace begins to shift, and many people are left feeling a mix of hope, exhaustion, uncertainty

Boxing Day has arrived and my body is tired. Not the kind of tired that sleep alone can fix, but the deep, layered tired that comes from a month filled with engagement, connection and presence. December held a lot this year. Two retreats, a full calendar of gatherings, and Christmas itself with multiple family circles coming together on the same day. I loved it. Having all of my relatives together doesn’t always happen, and it felt rich, meaningful and special. But it was als

Christmas Eve carries a particular kind of energy. There is excitement and beauty in the air, but there is also a lot of noise and end of year stress. Shops are busy, conversations are loud, roads are full and many nervous systems are running on high alert, often without us even realising it. Today, while out and about, I popped into The Wellbeing Spot in Rockingham to check on stock. The moment I walked through the door, I felt the contrast. The noise of the season stayed o

There is something deeply special about retreat spaces. The slowing down, the sense of being held, the gentle rhythm of the days and the way the body begins to soften when it realises it does not need to be “on” all the time. Often, one of the biggest questions people have after a retreat is, how do I hold onto this feeling when I return home? The truth is, the retreat feeling is not something that belongs only to a weekend away. It is a state your nervous system has accessed

In our everyday lives, many of us are living in a constant state of doing. We move from task to task, responsibility to responsibility, often without realising how long our nervous systems have been operating in a heightened state. Over time, this ongoing stress can leave us feeling tired, overwhelmed and disconnected from ourselves. This is why retreats can feel so profoundly healing. They are not just time away, they are medicine for the nervous system. Stepping Out of Surv

December can feel like a beautiful whirlwind. Social commitments, end-of-year deadlines, family gatherings and the pressure to do it all can leave many of us feeling stretched, tired and overwhelmed. While self-care is often the first thing to be pushed aside, this is actually the time we need it most. The good news is that self-care does not have to be another thing on your to-do list. It can be found in small, intentional moments throughout your day, micro moments that gent
